Her eyes were like two overflowing dams as tears fell onto his sleeves.

Elijah held the woman’s petite figure tightly in his arms. His heart ached for her.

If she was still this sad when she recalled what had happened back then…

How weak and lost must she have been when Nicole left her five years ago?

He, the man who claimed to love her more than anyone else, had not been by her side when that happened…

The man tightened his arms around Sally. “I swear...

“I’ll be by your side for all the important events that will happen to you in the future.”

Sally shut her eyes and nodded as she sobbed. “Alright.”

...

In the evening.

Sally’s eyes were so swollen they resembled walnuts when Evonne arrived at the Moses house.

“Elijah Moses!”

When Evonne, who had rushed over as quickly as possible, saw the state Sally was in, she grabbed a cushion from the couch and threw it at Elijah. “Was this what you meant when you said you would take good care of her?!”

    Sally’s hands clenched together tightly. She raised her eyes to gaze at Evonne excitedly. “Did my dad… really say that?” Evonne rolled her eyes at her. “Why would I lie to you?” Then, she sighed and said, “Sal, I know that you’re finding it very difficult to let go of the matter because you’re her daughter. But based purely on logical reasoning, you’re not at fault either.“Didn’t you operate on Aunt Nat in the first place so that she could lead a better life?“It’s not your fault, and those who think that it’s your fault don’t even know the situation. You don’t need to pay them any attention.” Sally pursed her lips. She understood what Evonne meant, and Elijah had repeated the same things to her more than once. She had also told herself the same things for the past five years. However, she felt as if her world was collapsing around her when she thought of how she needed to expose her wounds to the public. Words were dangerous. She did not want to have people pointing

    “Why is she still not here?!” When Sally stepped out of the elevator, she immediately heard a woman screech, “You little b*stard, is your mom too afraid to come?” Then, Sam’s childish yet furious voice rang out. “My mom said she’ll come, which means that she’ll be coming!“I’m warning you! You’re not allowed to badmouth my mom. I won’t forgive you if you don’t stop!” “Haha, you little brat. You won’t forgive me? Who do you think you are? You’re barely half my height but you think you can control me—“Ahh!!! Let go, let go of me!” The woman had not finished speaking when she began screaming. Sally hurriedly dashed toward where the noise was coming from. She was greeted with the sight of Sam hanging off the woman’s arm as he bit her while the woman wailed in pain. The woman lost any rationality she had left and raised a hand to bring it down on Sam’s head...Sally’s eyes widened as she rushed over crazedly. However, she was too far away from them. Just as the woman’s

    The teacher could not string together a sentence to retaliate against Elijah. The parent laughed coldly and turned to look at Sally. “Tsk, tsk. Covering yourself so tightly with a cap and mask?” Right after she finished speaking, the woman rushed forth and pulled Sally’s cap and mask off her. Elijah began racing over to Sally at the same time as the woman, but he was holding Sam in his arms and could not overtake the woman, who was running empty-handed. “Clap!” The woman threw Sally’s cap and mask to the ground. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. So, this is what the plagiarizer Sally Summers looks like!” The woman screeched, “It’s so hard to believe that you don’t even have an ounce of humanity in you when you look this good!” She managed to attract the attention of everyone else when she screamed. Sally shrank away and was just about to bend down to pick up her cap and mask when a pair of warm arms encircled her. Elijah used an arm to carry Sam as he placed the other arm around Sally’

    “You messed up my plans.” “But Boss!”Joanne’s grip on her phone tightened as she explained frantically, “I was listening to the kindergarten teacher when she was making the call! She did not call Elijah Moses!” “I have no idea how he managed to get here!” Quirinus’ mission for Joanne was for him to appear “by chance” in front of Sally and help Sally take care of things by using his status as Joanne’s boss to force Joanne to apologize to Sally. That way, Sally would owe Quirinus another favor. Who would have expected… Elijah would arrive at the scene before Sally even did! Quirinus laughed. “That was an oversight of my part.” “I would have bugged my wife’s phone and tracked her every move if she became society’s scarlet letter so that I could protect her at all times.” Quirinus stood by the window and gazed at Elijah, who was opening the car door for Sally. “He’s an interesting opponent.” —————— “I’ve asked Pierre to bring Little Sarah home.” Elijah spoke quietl

    Yvette was stunned at how domineering Sally was being. She frantically called Queenie as she read the comments Sally had left. “Queenie, what should I do now?” “I thought you said Sally was a coward?” Why did the person on the other end seem as if she had the power of a fleet of tanks on her side? Queenie was rolling amongst the bedsheets with Christian just then. When she heard what Yvette said, she scrolled through her phone quickly. A cold smile appeared on her face as she said, “She can post it if she wants to.” “I have a plan.” After Yvette hung up, she pursed her lips as she typed out a reply to Sally’s comment. “Sure, go ahead and post it if you want to.” Sally sat in the study at the Moses house and smiled bitterly when she saw Yvette’s reply. She had long since guessed that this was Queenie’s motive. However, she no longer cared anymore. This matter concerned her only. She could not allow the people around her to be distracted because they were worried

    The veins on Yvette’s forehead popped. “I would be eternally grateful if Elijah doesn’t think I’m an idiot after this!” “How on earth would I have a chance?” “Of course you would.” Queenie chuckled. “Sally is a very sentimental person.”“What do you think she’ll do if you hire keyboard warriors to berate her for killing her mom?” Yvette furrowed her brows in thought before she clapped her thigh and exclaimed, “That’s right!” Although Sally’s first operation had been done on her mom, she was also the one who had indirectly killed her mom! If it weren’t for the operation, her mom would have been able to live for another month or two! And what had happened? Nicole had been unable to make it after her surgery and died just half a month later. Who else was there to blame but Sally for indirectly killing her! “I understand now!” Yvette let out the breath she had been holding as she dialed another number. “Ol’ Wes, get in contact with our company’s keyboard army…” She

    The director frowned when he saw the confused look on Sally’s face. “Dr. Summers, don’t you… don’t you know?” Sally stared confusedly at the director as she shook her head sincerely. “I don’t know.” “This.” The director sighed as he opened up his laptop and swiftly found the video that had gone viral on the internet. There were two parts to the video. One half of it starred Bennett, and the other… starred Nicole, who had been dead for five years. “Sal is my daughter, and Nicole is my wife. I think I have the right to make a statement regarding this issue.” Bennett had stubble growing around his chin in the first half of the video, and he seemed to have become frailer and aged since the last time Sally had seen him. He smiled slightly as he gazed into the camera. “I don’t think Sally did anything wrong.” “If I were my wife, I would have made the same choice five years ago.” “To put things simply, I trust my daughter, and I’m willing to put my life into her hands.” “T

    Sally bit down on her lip as she whispered to herself: ‘Mom, I still want to be your daughter in my next life.’ ‘I won’t leave you or allow you to fall ill. I’ll accompany you…” —————— Sally’s eyes were red from crying when she left the research institute. After she got into the car, she took her phone and dialed Bennett’s number. “Dad.” She sniffled, unable to hide the fact she had just been crying as she said, “I’ve seen the videos.” “As long as you’re alright.” Bennett’s voice was filled with love for his daughter. “Why does your voice sound hoarse? Have you been crying?”“Did Elijah bully you?” “No.” Sally knew Bennett could not see her, but she still shook her head vigorously as she said, “I was touched when I saw… the videos of you and mom.” Bennett stayed silent for a long while before he chuckled and said, “Silly girl.” “This is what we as parents are supposed to do.” Sally shook her head. “Dad, your video was posted just in time…” She

    ————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
