Thus, she would lie in wait with Elijah at the research institute. If Javier still had any shame, he would not go there this afternoon! ————Elijah drove Sally to the research institute after they had had lunch. Several volunteers were already waiting outside when they arrived. Thus, Sally and Elijah took the back entrance in. “Welcome, Mr. Moses and Madam!” The two had just stepped in from the research institute’s back door when a row of voices rang out. Sally was startled. When she calmed down, she saw that all researchers, regardless of age, were standing in two neat rows by the door, clapping and shouting to welcome them. The veins on her forehead bulged. Why did this look exactly like what had happened when Dave Jackman had welcomed her inspection at Summers Corporation…Did they just happen to share the same brain cells as Dave? “CEO Summers! Surprise!” Dave’s large face appeared at the end of the formation. Sally, “...” “What are you doing here?” “

“Don’t kill anyone. However, a bonus will be given accordingly, depending on the seriousness of the person’s injuries.” “What about those insulting Mr. Seth Greene?” “Ignore them.” Dave, “...” “Alright!” Sally furrowed her brow when he hung up the phone. “I don’t think there’s a need to be so vicious.” The man narrowed his brows, a cold glint flashing in his deep, bottomless eyes. “They have to pay the price for their foul mouths.” Sally pursed her lips. She wanted to say more, but the door to the director’s office opened. Elijah made a shushing motion toward Sally. The director’s office was divided into two parts. Sally and Elijah were in the room where the director slept whilst working late shifts at the research institute, whereas the director had led Javier and Little May into the area where guests were normally received. A concealed door separated the two rooms from each other. Only a select few knew that the two antique paintings on the door were doors. Th

Elijah draped his arm elegantly across Sally’s shoulders as his lips curled into a cold, mocking smile. “You hid away from her when she was at her worst and needed all the help she could get and refused to give her even a few heartfelt words of support. “However, when I helped her get through difficult times, you pop in and accuse me of using my money to force her into a marriage. You accuse me of not playing fair. Do you have no shame? “I remember you bought a car. How much did it cost? Six hundred thousand dollars.” “Sally’s grandmother also needed six hundred thousand dollars to pay for her treatment.” Javier’s face finally turned as white as a sheet. Sally’s lips pressed into a thin line. She remembered being impressed by that car. Javier would drive her home in that car when she was still working at the nursing home. He had even boasted to her that he had bought the car on his own, using the money he had earned. “It’s not that you can’t spare the six hundred thousa

The man raised his hand to ruffle her hair. “It’s been so long. Are you still jealous?” Sally’s face turned crimson. “Who… who’s jealous? I’m not!’ “Anyway.” Elijah raised his eyebrows. “It’s time she ‘woke up’.” Sally was confused. “I thought she’s been in a coma ever since her accident. Didn’t the doctors say that there was nothing they could do?”“That’s not true.” Elijah shut his eyes. “She did not get in an accident, nor is she in a coma.” “I ordered it.” Sally was even more shocked.“Seth would only have an actual chance to return and help me run the company if something had happened to her.” “I would only have time to accompany you to Summers Family Village if he helped me run the company.” Still in shock, it took Sally a few moments before she finally understood everything. Thus, she asked the same questions as Pierre had asked back then. “Chelsea’s in perfect shape, why would she agree to pretend to be confined in the ICU for so long?” “She had to agree

The clean, fresh smell of his body flooded her nostrils, and she could hear the light sounds of his breathing. Sally found it even harder to fall asleep. She fidgeted in his arms. “Stop that.” The man wrinkled his brows as he spoke in a low voice. “I can’t sleep,” She pouted, feeling aggrieved. “Close your eyes, and you’ll fall asleep.” She shut her eyes, but said mischievously, “I’ve shut them, but I still can’t fall asleep.” He laughed lightly as he lay a kiss on her lips. “Be good, and you’ll fall asleep soon.” It was quiet inside the bedroom. The bright moonlight cast through the window, stretching the shadows of the things inside the bedroom. Even with her eyes shut, Sally still could not fall asleep. In the end, she gave up and opened her eyes. The man’s features seemed even more defined under the moonlight. She felt her attention drifting as she gazed at him. After a while, she jolted back to her senses and smacked herself lightly across the face.
