"How disgusting!”Evonne looked at Joan dead in the eyes and said, "You think you can talk about Sal like that just because you’re rich?"Sally looked down as she took out her books and notes from her school bag. "I mean, money is king."Since Grandma Summers fell sick, Sally had longed to become rich.Although she was now the wife of a rich man, nothing about it felt real to her."Don’t say that."Evonne frowned and said, "You need to stand up for yourself. Get Elijah here and give Joan a tight slap on the face. Make her kneel and apologize to you!"Sally shook her head and said, "Forget about it.""Why?""If they have their mind set on making fun of me, they’ll always find a way to do so. Even if I can prove that Elijah is not an old, ugly, fat, and bald person, they will still make fun of him for being disabled."Sally took a deep breath, put on her earphones, and replied, "Just ignore them."She married Elijah so that she could take care of him, not the other way around.

Sally frowned. She was just about to reply to Ol' Joe to tell him not to worry about it when she heard a commotion.She raised her head subconsciously only to see that Calvin Lewis, who was nearly fifty years old, had walked up to her respectfully and said, "Madam, I will be driving you home today on behalf of Ol' Joe."There was a huge uproar at the school gate area once he said that.Joan's eyes widened and she shouted, "Dad!"Calvin turned and glared at her. "I'm working!"After he finished speaking, he turned his head back to Sally and smiled respectfully. "Madam, the car is just over here."Sally felt her scalp tingling.The person that Ol' Joe had mentioned turned out to be Joan's father!Lively discussion immediately ensued, and Joan could not help but felt awkward about it.After a while, Joan ran up to bar Calvin’s way. "Dad, are you kidding me? You are the hotshot of A City! Why are you here being a driver for this b*tch?! Who is the man that’s backing her up? Dad, w

"I’m not a tea person... I don't think it tastes any different from water."The man smiled and took the teacup from her hand. He then poured another cup and drank it. "Do you have something that you want to tell me?"Sally frowned and said, "Please stop sending people to pick me up from school. I did some research on how to get home by bus. It is very convenient; I only need to change buses twice."Elijah raised his lips and said, "You think that your classmates will stop gossiping about you just because you go home by bus?"Sally was stunned. "You...you know about this?"However, once she gave it some thought, it made sense that he knew what was happening in her school, considering that he had the means to get Joan Lewis's father to pick her up. When she thought of that, she could not help but secretly glance at Elijah.Initially, she thought that she was married to a disabled person and had to constantly take care of him.However, it seemed that there was more to him than me

Sally worked in the kitchen for one and a half hours.As she served the last dish of the evening, she glanced at it with satisfaction before turning around and trotting over to Elijah. "I'm done. Would you like to eat it now or later?"The woman's sweet voice traveled into his ears, causing Elijah to lightly lift his thin lips. "Now.""Then I'll push you over."There was a hint of excitement in Sally's voice. "I've cooked my best dishes tonight. Try it and see if it's to your liking. Tell me what you like, and I can cook it for you every day!"As they talked, the wheelchair reached the dining table.She smiled as she handed him the spoon and fork but then found it inappropriate. "I forgot you can’t see... Why don't... I feed you?"Elijah glanced at her but said nothing.However, his hand obediently handed her the spoon and fork.After taking the spoon and fork, Sally carefully picked up the plate and then raised small piece of fish fillet to his mouth. "Open your mouth."The

"Fortunately, your Aunt Sylvia's Liam just got a beating. They're busy with Liam and don't have time to gossip with your grandmother. Everything will be alright once they forget about it.""If you miss Grandma, just come and see her yourself. Don't take Mr. Moses with you."Sally's heart sank deeper and deeper into the abyss. She lowered her voice. "Got it."Just as she hung up on Shawn, Sylvia called again.It was Sylvia's sixtieth call to Sally over the past few days.Sally's school was so big that she could not find her and she did not know where she lived, so she had to bombard her with phone calls every day.Placing her cell phone on the table, Sally looked at the words "Aunt Sylvia" on the screen, feeling distraught.After a long time, the cell phone stopped vibrating, only to be followed up with a text message.The text message was from Sylvia. "You little b*tch, I know what you're afraid of. If you don't want your grandmother to know you married a blind man, get me the

'Liam was only hospitalized for three days. How did he spend so much?'Sylvia's voice on the other end of the line sounded somewhat contemptuous. "Why can't he spend one hundred thousand dollars? My Liam hurt the family jew..." Mid-sentence, she seemed to find the subject embarrassing, so she coughed and changed the subject. "Anyway, Liam was badly hurt." Suddenly, Sylvia's voice cut off. "How did you know Liam was hospitalized for three days?"Her son was so badly injured in a fight that he almost had his family jewels removed. She did not even tell her brother Shawn about it. Sally had not even answered her phone these days, and this was the first time she had spoken to Sally about Liam's hospitalization.'How does Sally know that Liam had been hospitalized for three days?'"Do you know anything about Liam getting beaten up?"Sylvia's voice went up an octave. "Could it be that you had something to do with him getting beaten up?"Sally panicked. "No, no.""Hmph, I guess not

Chapter 37
One of her faults was that she could never keep up with the world.For example, if she quarreled with someone and was badly scolded, her brain would react only after the person left. 'I should have refuted her this way just now!'This happened several times, in fact, more than a dozen times, before she finally realized that she was not a quarrelsome and scheming person. Thus, she preferred to avoid trouble whenever possible.What she said to Sylvia on the phone had been conceived in her head during the time when she had refused to answer Sylvia's calls over the past few days.However, it was one thing to conceive and another to speak.When she had spoken the words stored inside her mind, she felt as if she had been drained of all her strength.Sylvia was frightened by it.She leaned against the tree to cool her head for a long time before picking up her cell phone and heading back.As her silhouette slowly returned to the villa, a woman hidden in the corner of the small garden

"Worried about..."Sally yawned and was just about to blurt out the thing to Sylvia when she thought of something and hastily shut her mouth.Reason told her that she could not tell him about it.'Isn't telling him I'm worried about money an indirect way of asking him for money?'Therefore, she smiled and played dumb. "Worried about today's physics exam.""I've never been good at physics."Her lashes quivered slightly as she said this, and her eyes fluttered with confusion as to where to look.Elijah frowned but did not expose her. "If you're so worried, why don't you study hard for it?"Sally pressed her lips together and thought about it. "Can I come back later after school?""Don't send Ol' Joe to pick me up. I'll study in the library and come back by bus, all right?"Ol' Joe's daily pick-ups were more of a restriction and method of monitoring to her.Elijah narrowed his eyes. "Sure."The little lady heaved a sigh of relief and dutifully thrust the spoon and fork into hi

The latter winced and the soup in his hand spilled."Where's the money?"After they left the ward, Sylvia made no secret of her ideas of Sally. "Hurry up."Sally could only hand her the envelope with three thousand dollars in it. "You must keep your word, Aunt Sylvia."Sylvia rolled her eyes. "As long as you pay me on time, I'll keep my mouth shut in front of your grandmother!"With that, she sneered at Sally.She married such a rich man but was so stingy in paying some money.After giving her the money, Sally did not have anything more to say to Sylvia, so she picked up her backpack and left.When she was walking down the hall on the first floor, she happened to bump into Javier, whom she had not seen for a long time."Sally!"Javier had begun to call her from a distance.She was going to hide from him, but when he yelled at her, she did not stand a chance.Therefore, Sally could only greet him awkwardly, "Javier, what a coincidence."She could somehow bump into him every

Sally blushed as she nodded. "Therefore, could you recommend any good part-time jobs?"Javier looked up at the sign in front of him. "Here we are. Let's have lunch first. We'll talk about it afterward."Sally could only nod and follow him into the restaurant.She was a little absent-minded during the meal.She could not stop thinking about what happened when she had lunch with Javier last time.The last time she had lunch with Javier, Elijah knew everything instantly.'Will he know this time as well?''Will he call her and send someone to take her home as he did last time?'As she finished her meal in fear, she did not hear anything from Elijah at all."You're a nursing student. I can recommend you work as a part-time nurse in a nursing home."After lunch, Javier looked through his cell phone. "I happen to have a classmate who works in a nursing home. There're a lot of part-time nursing jobs there. The pay is pretty high, but the requirements will be higher.""You took such
