“But it doesn’t hurt at all now.” It was weird that squabbling with her seemed to ease his pain. “Idiot.” Zoey rolled her eyes at him. “Why did you stand in front of me? They couldn’t have won in the fight against me.” Thomas also rolled his eyes at her. “Come on, I’m a man. I couldn’t just stand and watch you get beaten up, could I?” “Would you two like to chat for a while longer?” The two of them had been squabbling with each other and did not notice that Elijah was standing beside the door, which he had opened. “No!” “No!” The two spoke at the same time when they heard Elijah’s voice. Then, they looked at each other and turned their heads the other way. “Hmph!” The man standing at the door massaged his temples wryly. “Let’s go.” The two stood and followed Elijah as they walked out the door. “Where’s Sis Sally?” Zoey could not help but ask that question when she did not see any sign of Sally after walking from the holding cell to the police station’s entra

When she looked at Thomas now, she was reminded of Elijah, who used to suffer everything himself. No matter how much sorrow, pain, or sadness he felt, he would always manage to get through it himself. Thomas looked somewhat similar to how Elijah was several years ago. After all, they were brothers. Their stubbornness in certain areas was so alike it was scary. When Sally finally extracted all the glass and helped Thomas disinfect and bandage his wound, he had already passed out from the pain. The man did not utter a single word or make a peep until he passed out.Sally sighed as she packed away her medical supplies. She was just about to get up when she saw Elijah approach with a thin blanket, which he gently lay over Thomas. “Sal, is he alright?”Zoey’s face was equal parts worry and self-reproach. “It’s all my fault…“I knew I would get into trouble if I got drunk, but…“If he hadn’t wanted to protect me, he wouldn’t have…” “He just passed out from the pain. He’ll b

Seth fell silent when he heard what the child on the other end of the line had to say. He could not argue against what Rohan had said. From an objective standpoint, Rohan was telling the truth. The call ended with him feeling bad about it. When Rohan hung up the phone and got out of bed, he saw the woman standing at the door. She was standing there quietly, and it seemed she had been standing there for a long time. “Give it to me.” Evonne’s eyes were calm as she reached her hand out to Rohan. Rohan pouted and instinctively hid the phone behind him. “Uncle Yoder gave this to me.” “You’re only five years old. You shouldn’t be using stuff like this.” Evonne’s voice was devoid of emotion. “Besides, you shouldn’t be in contact with him.” Rohan’s face turned pale. Evonne must have heard his conversation with Seth. “Mama, I’m not very close to him. I’m helping you vent out your anger.” Evonne pursed her lips, her arm still stretched out. “You don’t have to help me vent

The second she woke up from her dream, she saw Zoey’s sultry face in front of her.“Sis Sally! Do you know what a great person Mr. Moses is?” Zoey clamped her hands on Sally’s cheeks as she said solemnly, “He’s amazing!” Sally’s mind was still chaotic. Smiling wryly, she asked, “Since when has my husband not been amazing?” This rhetorical question… Zoey was stunned. She had planned to tell Sally about how much Elijah loved her and how she would not have known that he had done so much for her in secret. However, she did not know how to word it now. It seemed that no matter how she phrased it, she would not escape the outcome of them showing off their relationship to her. Finally, the woman let go of her hands that were holding Sally’s face. “Yeah.” Even if they would show off their relationship to her, she still needed to say it. “You already know how great your Mr. Moses is, so I don’t need to tell you anymore.“I don’t need to tell you that he’s always been secre

Evonne pursed her lips. “She’s probably not going to come in today because she’s not feeling well.” “Hah. She didn’t even bother to take leave even though she’s not coming to work. Guess they were right when they say that women from rich families are different.” Evonne frowned. “What did you say?” If she recalled correctly, she and Sally had never revealed their actual identities from the time they attended the interview in the company until they started work here. How could the director know that Sally was a rich person’s wife? “Nothing.” The director’s eyes twinkled for a moment before he lowered his head and coughed softly. “It’s Monday now. Are you done with the birthday party proposal I had you do last week?” “It’s done.” Evonne let out a breath as she turned to walk out to retrieve the proposal she had done. She placed it in front of the director. “It might be incomplete in places. I look forward to any advice you have to offer, Director.” The director frowned a
