As she was afraid that Elijah was really going to fool around with her that night, Sally immediately went into Sam and Sarah’s room after dinner and locked the door.

“Mommy, aren’t you going to sleep with Daddy?”

Lying on her own pink princess bed, Little Sarah blinked as she looked at Sally. “Don’t you guys have to sleep together every day?”

Sally was speechless, “…”

She coughed lightly and picked up a storybook as she sat on the side of Little Sarah’s bed. “Mommy’s going to tell you a story tonight and sleep with you!”

Little Sarah pressed her lips together and grabbed the book from Sally’s hands. “Sammy said only childish kids need to hear stories to fall asleep, so I haven’t listened to any stories in ages!”

Sally was at a loss for words, “…”

Little Sarah was just a five-year-old child!

She pressed her lips together and rolled her eyes at Sam. “You can’t keep teaching your sister bad things like this!”

Sam lay on his light blue bed that was half a room away from Little Sar

    Though Sally was watching the scenery outside the window as she sat in the backseat, her heart was occupied with thoughts of Elijah.In her mind, she was thinking of all the words she would use to scold him when she saw him later. As she was too caught up with the thoughts in her head, she forgot to observe the scenery outside the window… and how it was becoming more and more foreign to her.When she finally returned to her senses, the car had already left the suburbs of A City.Seeing the unfamiliar environment outside the window, Sally’s eyebrows abruptly drew together. “This isn’t the way to Moses Corporation!”The woman abruptly became alert. Her black grape-like eyes stared at the man in the driver’s seat vigilantly. “Who are you? What do you want?”The man in the driver’s seat subconsciously pressed down on the brim of his hat so that it was even lower. “Don’t you know what I want, Mrs. Moses?”This low male voice that seemed to harbor bad intentions made Sally’s nerves ten

    The lights in the car were not turned on.The moment Elijah saw ‘Yvette Banks’ on his phone screen, his eyebrows furrowed together harshly.The next second, he pressed the button to reject the call and kissed her tender lips. “An unimportant call. It’s fine if I don’t answer.”Nothing was more important than their night together!However, Sally did not think the same!She completely did not want to…Thus, when Yvette called a second time, she kindly reminded Elijah to answer his phone.The man still did not pick up. “I already said it’s unimportant.”Sally pressed her lips together and snatched the phone from his hands.When she saw ‘Yvette Banks’ on his screen, Sally’s brows furrowed tightly.After the very unpleasant incident with Yvette today, Elijah had said Seth Greene was the one who arranged for him and Yvette to meet. As such, Sally had asked Seth the purpose of such an arrangement when she was bored.She ended up being given a business course by Seth for the entire

    She silently listened to the woman on the phone perform a one-man show. Occasionally, Sally even lowered her voice to give one-word replies such as ‘Mmhm’, ‘Ah’, and ‘Okay’.“It’s a date, then. See you tomorrow in the usual place!”Hearing that woman’s excited voice over the phone, Sally helplessly massaged the space between her brows. “Ms. Banks.”Only then did Yvette make an ‘Ah’ sound over the phone. “You’re…”“I’m Sally Summers.”With one hand holding the phone, Sally helplessly massaged the space between her brows with her other hand.While she admitted she did not have a loud voice, her ‘hello’ at the start was definitely not soft.Since her voice was loud enough for Yvette Banks to hear, then why did Yvette still say those things on the phone?Moreover, Sally did not think that her voice sounded anything like Elijah’s deep voice even if she had deliberately lowered it.This Ms. Banks only said these things on purpose because she clearly knew Sally was the one who answer

    Sally did not know how she got home or when she fell asleep.The next morning, she slept in again.By noon, the sunlight was so bright that it woke Sally up and she opened her eyes in bed.When she saw the bright sunlight outside, Sally was incredibly flustered!The next second, she took out her phone and looked at the time.Then, the woman's angry voice echoed throughout the villa, "I missed work again!"On her first day of work yesterday, she had slept till noon.Today, she woke up at noon as well!How was she going to apply for another leave? How was she going to explain to Annie and her other gossiping colleagues the reason she was not at work for the first half of the day?!She got a headache when she thought about it!At that moment, Annie gave her a call. "Sal, are you sick today?"Our director said you took a half-day sick leave and asked me to ask you if you can make it to work this afternoon."He asked me to tell you that if you can't come to work, you don't have

    To be honest, she was a little hungry.She pursed her lips. "Refrigerate it. I’ll eat after I come back…”Aunt Leigh sighed and was worried that Sally would get too hungry on the road, so she thoughtfully stuffed flasks of warmed milk in her bag.After coming out of the villa, Sally got into Ol’ Joe's car as she drank her milk.After half an hour, the car stopped at the research institute.Just like yesterday, after Sally got out of the car at the entrance of the research institute, her colleagues pointed at her and gossiped as she walked past.After all, there was still no explanation for the plagiarism case.Their stares and gossipping made Sally very upset.She marched forward and quickly walked toward the floor where Annie worked.Since Annie said that their director was looking for her when she hung up the phone, Sally went straight to the direction of their director's office when she arrived upstairs.When she was around 20 meters away from their director's office, Sall

    "It's not that I have experience."Yvette spoke leisurely, "It's just that sooner or later, there will certainly be someone who’ll treat something that’s festering."If it’s not me, it’d be someone else."After speaking, she lowered her head and pretended to pat Annie's face gently. "Don’t you agree?”Annie was in so much pain that she could not say a word.She was in so much pain that she was not even aware of what Yvette was saying to Sally.When Yvette patted Annie, she just instinctively responded with a low and hoarse voice, "Mm-hmm.”"See? Even your friend agrees.”Yvette let out a faint laugh and fiercely pressed down the cotton swab with the ointment on Annie’s arm."Hiss!"Annie yelled out in pain."Do remember that you still have to be cautious when it comes to making friends."Yvette cast a look at Director Wade who rushed over and pressed on Annie's struggling arm."There are obviously better treatments, but Mrs. Moses, you only advised your friend to go for us

    The man smiled faintly. "I’m Quirinus Banks."Sally frowned and searched through her mind for a long time before she finally remembered a boy named Quirinus Banks.That was the boy she sat next to in junior high when she was in Summers Village. She sat next to him for a year before he eventually transferred to another school.It was just that... In her memory, Quirinus was a smiley fat boy!‘This thin and tall gentleman in front of me... is actually Quirinus from back then?’"Yes, it's me."Quirinus smiled faintly and put his hand on his temples. He made a hand gesture because he had probably guessed what Sally was thinking.That was what the little fat boy, Quirinius, always did back then.Sally was so shocked that her mouth was wide open for a long time.‘I guess… boys really do undergo a big change after they turn 18!‘But…’"Why are you here?”"I came to see my sister."The man smiled faintly and then turned his head to glance at Yvette.

    "Tsk. Stop pretending to be a good person."When Quirinus carried Yvette back into the car, she pursed her lips and looked at Quirinus in dissatisfaction. "Didn't you give me the idea to make things difficult for Sally's friend?"So why are you still pretending to be a good person?"Hypocrite!”Quirinus crossed his legs and leaned against the leather seat with a somewhat mocking smile on his lips. "I gave you that idea because I wanted to create a suitable opportunity to meet her again."Yvette raised her eyebrows. "So you were using me?""You’re my sister. Who else am I going to use?”Quirinus smiled faintly and indifferently before handing an Amex black card to Yvette. "Here’s 500,000. Consider the matter over.""That’s more like it.”Yvette pursed her lips and put the Amex black card away. Then, she raised her head and looked at Quirinus at eye level. "Do you really like Sally?"Quirinus curled up his lips faintly. "Of course.""I don’t.”Yvette pursed her lips. "Even if

    ————One year later. The wedding of Zoey Williams, president of Yoder Corporation, and Thomas Yoder, the young master of the Moses family, was held at A City’s grandest hotel. On the wedding day, Zoey wore a gorgeous wedding gown as she walked over to Thomas. She raised her head and smiled at him. “When I was a kid, Freya always said that I would have to marry her brother when I grew up.” “However, I realized that I did not like Elijah. I much preferred Sis Sally.” “Who would have thought that at the end of the day, I would still end up marrying Freya’s younger brother. As per her wishes, I’ll be taking care of her brother forever, and allowing her brother to care for me for the rest of my life.” Thomas smiled as he pulled her into his arms. “My beloved ZZ, I finally get to marry you.” Freya, carrying Frigg and sitting with the rest of the family, turned to exchange smiles with Bennett. The wedding was joyful and romantic. Everyone attending basked in the loving atmosp

    “If you destroy everything I have, then I’ll destroy everything you have!” Queenie gritted her teeth, a hideous expression on her face as she glared at Sally and said, “If it weren’t for you, I would still be the high-and-mighty young lady of the Tate family!” “It’s all because of you that I became nearly a stand-in for you. I’ve enjoyed many years of lavish treatment at the lavish family, but I was discarded unceremoniously into the dust!” “Sally Summers, it’s all your fault! Everything is because of you!” “I won’t forgive you even if I become a ghost!” “Alright then, go be a ghost!” Elijah narrowed his eyes and raised a hand to grip Queenie’s chin. The hatred in his eyes caused Queenie to smile. “Elijah Moses, choke me to death if you have the guts to do so!” “If you can’t choke me to death, I have multiple ways to make life miserable for you!” “Your sister is just one part of my plan!” “You probably don’t know this yet.” Her lips curled upwards into a bloodthir

    The woman lying in bed frowned and said in a weak, hoarse voice, “You are…” “I’m the woman who did it for a long time with your husband.” She sat down on a nearby chair and watched gleefully as the woman’s face turned increasingly paler. “You have a pretty bad memory, Mrs. Lucca.” “We just met the other day.” She shook her head as she spoke. “It makes sense, though. It’s only normal that a half-dead person would not have a great memory.” “Forgive me for being blunt, Mrs. Lucca. President Lucca told me that you don’t have many days left.” “When you’re gone, he’s going to leave his daughter and marry me.” The woman lying in bed turned pale as she shook her head and said, “Impossible… That’s impossible…” “Quincy, he…” “Nothing is impossible.” Queenie continued smiling a gleeful and flaunting smile. She threw her pregnancy test strip onto the woman’s face. “Look, I’m pregnant.” “How could I have gotten pregnant if we only did it one time? Such coincidences don’t exi

    “In your dreams!” Quincy gritted his teeth together tightly. “I wouldn’t want you even if every other woman on the planet was dead!” The woman on the other end of the line laughed lightly. “You’re going to abandon your child because Freya Moses is dead?” “You planted your seed in my stomach.” Quincy gritted his teeth and was about to continue arguing when Elijah gave him a look. Quincy pursed his lips. “So, what do you want?” “Let’s meet up.” Queenie yawned. “Can you pick a place?” “There’s a cafe nearby the hospital.” Quincy sighed. “I don’t have much time for you, so don’t try talking nonsense after we meet.”“What a man you are, trying to ghost someone after you’ve slept with them.” The woman shrugged nonchalantly. “Alright. You can wait for me. I’ll be there soon.” She hung up. Quincy pursed his lips and looked up at Elijah. “Why do you want me to meet her?” “You’ve got to have some bait if you want to trap someone.” “This time, Quincy, you’re the bait.

    The sharp end of the knife sank into Quincy’s skin. Intense pain came, but he did not seem to feel a thing as he continued pushing. Suddenly, a large, strong, and dry hand took hold of him. Quincy frowned as he tried to continue forcing the knife in, but he could not exert any more strength. Elijah’s cold voice rang beside his ear. “Do you feel like my sister will live on for much longer if you die before her eyes?” “Have you ever thought about how much she likes you and how important you are to her?” Stunned, Quincy turned instinctively to look at Freya. The woman was sobbing controllably. As she gazed tearfully at him, it seemed that she had multiple things she wanted to say but could not find the words. Tears flowed once more from Quincy’s eyes. Ignoring the blood flowing from his chest, he dashed over to Freya and held her tightly. “It’s my fault.” “It’s all my fault!” “Freya… I can’t live without you.” “I cannot… I…” Freya could not stop herself from wr

    After Freya was hospitalized, Quincy canceled all his work plans and spent all his time in the hospital watching over her. Although she never let him in, and although he could only ever gaze at her through the window from afar. However, he insisted on not taking even a step away from her ward. He stood guard there stubbornly, and no one could talk any sense into him. Both Elijah and Thomas could not bring themselves to chide or drive Quincy away when he acted this way. And thus, Freya finally agreed to meet him on the seventh day. The woman’s face in the ward was pale, and she was considerably thinner than from before hospitalization. She looked extremely haggard. Tears welled in Quincy’s eyes when he saw what his beloved looked like from a close distance. It was all his fault. It was all his fault! He had caused her to end up this way! All because of him!“Is there anything you would like to say?” Freya leaned against her pillows. Eyes shut, she seemed to have

    Sally’s lips pursed themselves together when Freya’s name was mentioned. She would admit that she had had a horrible first impression of Freya when they first met. The woman had stripped nearly twenty years of Zoey’s life away from her. Even now, Zoey still bore the scars she had inflicted upon her on her face. And she had even attacked Sally’s mother during her and Elijah’s wedding. However, times had changed, and five years had passed since then. Sally could not bring herself to be cruel toward Freya, who now showed complete remorse. Additionally, she had treated Sam and Little Sarah with genuine kindness lately. Sally had begun to think of her as family. Yet, now, something like this happened. She sighed. “Freya…” “Freya will not be in great condition when she regains consciousness. You need to prepare yourself mentally.” Freya’s illness was in her heart. The sort of illness she had made it so that she could not be made angry, excited, or frantic. If not, not e

    Evonne and Sally were slurping instant noodles when Elijah and Thomas arrived at the doctor’s on-call room. They were starving and had virtually no energy left. The only thing in the room they could use to fill their stomachs was instant noodles. When the door opened, Elijah frowned slightly when he saw his petite wife steadily making her way through a pack of instant noodles. The man strode over and grabbed her bowl. “Unhealthy stuff.” Sally had been enjoying herself and raised her head angrily when her instant noodles were taken away. “I don’t care if it’s not nutritious! I’m hungry… Hubby?” The emotions in the woman’s eyes turned from anger to shock, and then to surprise! Reaching out her arms, she encircled Elijah’s neck and jumped into his arms. “You’re back!” “I missed you so much!” He had been on his ocean trip for more than half a month. They had never been separated for so long since getting back together. The signal on the sea was spotty, and she could never

    When Sally finished suturing the last ruptured blood vessel in Freya’s heart, she was starving, exhausted, and had little to no energy left. Evonne, who was beside her, was not much better off. “It’s steady! The patient’s heartbeat is steady again!” The nurse staring at the electrocardiograph yelled out excitedly! Given the condition the patient was in, if it weren’t for these two doctors, they would never have been able to save her! “Dr. Summers and Dr. Turner are amazing!” “Of course.” A senior doctor standing nearby smiled as he stroked his beard and said, “How did you think Dr. Summers earned her title of genius surgeon?” The young nurse’s mouth widened in surprise. “In that case… why are Dr. Summers and Dr. Turner no longer working as doctors?” The senior doctor sighed. “I guess they have their reasons…” In another corner, Evonne leaned against the wall, exhausted as she turned to look at Sally. “Dr. Summers, do you still plan to stay on as a housewife?” Sa
