The dates on all these magazines were recent, and the headlines were all about her. Sally carefully flipped through the pages of each magazine and finally realized why Elijah had refused to let her go out, even controlling the news that reached her. It turned outโฆ This was how other people viewed her. Licentious. Flirtatious. Fake. Pretentious. Sally was not angry as she read these false accusations. She only found them funny. She had already gotten angry the other day when Elijah told her about what had happened with Quirinus. Now, she found the whole thing funny. Some people merely followed the crowd and were spreading rumors. They were speculating about how her relationship with Elijah was, how her life was, what kind of person she wasโฆ Why did those things concern people who had never talked to her before? She let out a sigh and placed the magazines down. When she turned around, she saw Blair staring blankly in a direction. She frowned and looked towar

The shrill voice drew the attention of everyone in the library, and all eyes were on Sally now. In an instant, the quiet library transformed into a bustling marketplace. Some people whispered among themselves, others sneered coldly, and a few mocked her loudly. Sally heard every personโs voice. She pursed her lips, and the hands hanging by her sides curled into fists. She knew she should not care about what outsiders thought about her, and she should not get angry over gossip. However, she still felt angry when she heard those malicious voices. Was there no one who could mind their own business?โLetโs go.โ Blair took a quick step forward and pulled Sally behind him. Then, he turned to look at the girl whose hair was tied into two ponytails. โIs there a back exit here?โ The girl was stunned speechless by what had just happened. When she heard what Blair asked, she jolted back to her senses and nodded hurriedly. โYes, yes! I know the way!โ Then, she instinctively

Fiona frowned. โThird year.โ The oppressive feeling that Sally was emanating caused her to feel extremely uncomfortable. She bit down on her lip. It was clearโฆ It was clear she was the one who was interrogating Sally, but why did she feel like she was the one being questioned now? โOh, third year?โ Sally smiled as she continued gazing at her. โIf youโve been here for three years, you should know what the universityโs motto is, right?โ Fiona pursed her lips. Although unwilling, she still answered Sallyโs question. โThe schoolโs motto isโฆ to read virtuous books, to obey virtuous teachings, to have virtuous aspirations, to partake in virtuous activities, and to be a virtuous person.โ Sally smiled. โYou seem to have it down pat. But why are you not acting accordingly?โ Startled, Fiona raised her gaze to look at Sally. โHow do you know Iโm not acting accordingly?โ Sally continued smiling. โLet me ask you this. To read virtuous books, to obey virtuous teachings, to have vir

When Fiona sounded the command, the students blocking the exits all made way for Sally. Sally raised an eyebrow and remained seated in the chair as she gazed coolly at Fiona. โWhy the sudden generosity, Ms. Fiona? That makes me feel uncomfortable.โJust letting me walk away doesnโt seem like something you would do.โ Fiona smiled. โYouโre very smart, Ms. Summers.โ When she finished speaking, she strolled over to the window and gazed at the crowd of reporters outside the library. โIโm not a professional reporter, which is why you can refuse to answer my questions, show your disdain, and make things difficult for me.โButโฆโ She turned and smiled at Sally. โWhat about the reporters outside? How do you plan to face them, Ms. Summers?โ Sally frowned and stood up slowly so she could walk over to the window and look outside. Oh, man. The crowd of reporters outsideโฆ were all here because of her? Sallyโs heart plummeted. To be honest, she felt far from calm. She was not a

She could not access the internet on her phone and had no means of contacting Elijah! She raised her head and gazed at the girl with ponytails who had an awkward expression on her face. Then, she shifted her gaze to Blair, who was visibly trying to contain his anger. She knew something bad would happen if they remained here. Thus, she let out a sigh and smiled as she stood up slowly. โItโs not that Iโm scared to go down and face them...โ Sally glanced at Fiona. โYou just have no right to order me to do anything.โRemember this, Iโm going down now not because you asked me to, butโฆ because Iโm tired of breathing the same dirty air as you in this library.โOh, right. The university hasnโt changed its headmaster and head of academics, right?โIโll find a chance to have them take a look at the surveillance footage here so they can admire how students of A City University enjoy poking their noses into the private lives of other people.โ When she finished speaking, she turned aroun

The ponytailed girl was frantic. She gazed frantically at Sally, near tears as she said, โI didnโt do it on purposeโฆโ โWhatโฆ What should we do!โ Seeing how the reporters outside were getting closer, Sally frowned and ducked down to hide from them. Blair frowned and stared at the ponytailed girl, whose face had turned bright red, and her eyes were brimming with tears. โStupid.โ After lightly spitting out those two words, the teenager pulled the ponytailed girl into his arms. โBang--!โ the door to the room burst open. The reporters did not even pay attention to who was in the room as they began snapping away with their cameras. After all, the only image they wanted was one of Sally when she was still unprepared. They did not care who was inside. The only thing they needed to do if they were wrong was to apologize. If they managed to capture a photo of Sally being flusteredโฆ they would have their headline of the day! However, what they had not expectedโฆ To see in

Sallyโs heart began racing. Seriously? Her elaborate escape plan had been exposed? Based on the circulating rumors about her, there was no way a reporter would have imagined she would squat in such a dirty trash can! When the footsteps stopped, another pair of strong footsteps sounded. The steps sounded elegant and aloof. Those footsteps were gradually nearing her. Sally gritted her teeth and shut her eyes in submission. Itโs over, itโs over, itโs all over! Now, not only would she have failed to escape from these immoral reporters, but the entire city would also see how disgraceful she looked as she squatted in a dirty trash can! She was Mrs. Moses, wife of the president of Moses Corporation, Elijah Moses! It was so embarrassing!She could already imagine that the headlines on all the newspapers and magazines would be her dirty face as she squatted in a trash can! Boohoo hooโฆ She had embarrassed her husband! Sally was still lost in her thoughts when the foo

โSilly girl.โ Elijah smiled helplessly as he lifted Sally out from the trash can. He was dressed immaculately in an expensive, tailored suit. She had pieces of garbage and dirty water all over her and was a right mess. However, he did not seem to mind at all as he held her in his arms. Moreover, he was carrying her like a cherished bride. โEveryone.โ Pierre, who was standing next to them, smiled at the crowd of reporters. โWe apologize for the embarrassment.โ โMadam likes to play hide and seek with Sir.โ โOf course, these are intimate affairs, and itโs our fault for allowing everyone here to witness the fun between a loving couple.โ โHowever, Sir is a private person and does not enjoy sharing his life with the public. Weโll have to trouble everyone here.โ Pierre smiled like a kindly grandfather as he uttered those words. Howeverโฆ The minute he finished speaking, the guards surrounding them moved in unison as they roughly grabbed the cameras from the reporters ne

โโโโOne 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 Cityโs 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. โWhen I was a kid, Freya always said that I would have to marry her brother when I grew up.โ โHowever, I realized that I did not like Elijah. I much preferred Sis Sally.โ โWho would have thought that at the end of the day, I would still end up marrying Freyaโs younger brother. As per her wishes, Iโll be taking care of her brother forever, and allowing her brother to care for me for the rest of my life.โ Thomas smiled as he pulled her into his arms. โMy beloved ZZ, I finally get to marry you.โ 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

โIf you destroy everything I have, then Iโll destroy everything you have!โ Queenie gritted her teeth, a hideous expression on her face as she glared at Sally and said, โIf it werenโt for you, I would still be the high-and-mighty young lady of the Tate family!โ โItโs all because of you that I became nearly a stand-in for you. Iโve enjoyed many years of lavish treatment at the lavish family, but I was discarded unceremoniously into the dust!โ โSally Summers, itโs all your fault! Everything is because of you!โ โI wonโt forgive you even if I become a ghost!โ โAlright then, go be a ghost!โ Elijah narrowed his eyes and raised a hand to grip Queenieโs chin. The hatred in his eyes caused Queenie to smile. โElijah Moses, choke me to death if you have the guts to do so!โ โIf you canโt choke me to death, I have multiple ways to make life miserable for you!โ โYour sister is just one part of my plan!โ โYou probably donโt know this yet.โ Her lips curled upwards into a bloodthir

The woman lying in bed frowned and said in a weak, hoarse voice, โYou areโฆโ โIโm the woman who did it for a long time with your husband.โ She sat down on a nearby chair and watched gleefully as the womanโs face turned increasingly paler. โYou have a pretty bad memory, Mrs. Lucca.โ โWe just met the other day.โ She shook her head as she spoke. โIt makes sense, though. Itโs only normal that a half-dead person would not have a great memory.โ โForgive me for being blunt, Mrs. Lucca. President Lucca told me that you donโt have many days left.โ โWhen youโre gone, heโs going to leave his daughter and marry me.โ The woman lying in bed turned pale as she shook her head and said, โImpossibleโฆ Thatโs impossibleโฆโ โQuincy, heโฆโ โNothing is impossible.โ Queenie continued smiling a gleeful and flaunting smile. She threw her pregnancy test strip onto the womanโs face. โLook, Iโm pregnant.โ โHow could I have gotten pregnant if we only did it one time? Such coincidences donโt exi

โIn your dreams!โ Quincy gritted his teeth together tightly. โI wouldnโt want you even if every other woman on the planet was dead!โ The woman on the other end of the line laughed lightly. โYouโre going to abandon your child because Freya Moses is dead?โ โYou planted your seed in my stomach.โ Quincy gritted his teeth and was about to continue arguing when Elijah gave him a look. Quincy pursed his lips. โSo, what do you want?โ โLetโs meet up.โ Queenie yawned. โCan you pick a place?โ โThereโs a cafe nearby the hospital.โ Quincy sighed. โI donโt have much time for you, so donโt try talking nonsense after we meet.โโWhat a man you are, trying to ghost someone after youโve slept with them.โ The woman shrugged nonchalantly. โAlright. You can wait for me. Iโll be there soon.โ She hung up. Quincy pursed his lips and looked up at Elijah. โWhy do you want me to meet her?โ โYouโve got to have some bait if you want to trap someone.โ โThis time, Quincy, youโre the bait.

The sharp end of the knife sank into Quincyโs 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. Elijahโs cold voice rang beside his ear. โDo you feel like my sister will live on for much longer if you die before her eyes?โ โHave you ever thought about how much she likes you and how important you are to her?โ 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 Quincyโs eyes. Ignoring the blood flowing from his chest, he dashed over to Freya and held her tightly. โItโs my fault.โ โItโs all my fault!โ โFreyaโฆ I canโt live without you.โ โI cannotโฆ Iโฆโ 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 womanโs face in the ward was pale, and she was considerably thinner than from before hospitalization. She looked extremely haggard. Tears welled in Quincyโs 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!โIs there anything you would like to say?โ Freya leaned against her pillows. Eyes shut, she seemed to have

Sallyโs lips pursed themselves together when Freyaโs 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 Zoeyโs life away from her. Even now, Zoey still bore the scars she had inflicted upon her on her face. And she had even attacked Sallyโs mother during her and Elijahโs 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. โFreyaโฆโ โFreya will not be in great condition when she regains consciousness. You need to prepare yourself mentally.โ Freyaโs 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 doctorโs 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. โUnhealthy stuff.โ Sally had been enjoying herself and raised her head angrily when her instant noodles were taken away. โI donโt care if itโs not nutritious! Iโm hungryโฆ Hubby?โ The emotions in the womanโs eyes turned from anger to shock, and then to surprise! Reaching out her arms, she encircled Elijahโs neck and jumped into his arms. โYouโre back!โ โI missed you so much!โ 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 Freyaโs heart, she was starving, exhausted, and had little to no energy left. Evonne, who was beside her, was not much better off. โItโs steady! The patientโs heartbeat is steady again!โ The nurse staring at the electrocardiograph yelled out excitedly! Given the condition the patient was in, if it werenโt for these two doctors, they would never have been able to save her! โDr. Summers and Dr. Turner are amazing!โ โOf course.โ A senior doctor standing nearby smiled as he stroked his beard and said, โHow did you think Dr. Summers earned her title of genius surgeon?โ The young nurseโs mouth widened in surprise. โIn that caseโฆ why are Dr. Summers and Dr. Turner no longer working as doctors?โ The senior doctor sighed. โI guess they have their reasonsโฆโ In another corner, Evonne leaned against the wall, exhausted as she turned to look at Sally. โDr. Summers, do you still plan to stay on as a housewife?โ Sa
