Sally plastered a fake smile on her face as she asked, “Did you sleep well, Ms. Blue?” “Not… not bad.” Wren smiled awkwardly as she turned to glare at Jules. “Look at you, always causing unnecessary ruckus. You must have scared Elijah and Ms. Summers half to death.“I was just asleep!” Jules pouted and stayed silent. “It’s alright. You’re awake now.” Elijah had guessed what Wren was up to ever since she fainted after drinking that cup of water, but he was too lazy to expose her. “We’ll be going downstairs now.“Wren, I’ll tolerate you sleeping in my house this one time. I don’t want to see this happen again in the future.” The man turned and walked off after he finished speaking. Sally had also turned to follow him, but she turned back around and looked at Wren and Jules when a thought occurred to her. “Right, I forgot to tell you that the toilet in this guest room is clogged. You may use the bathroom downstairs if you need it. Please don’t use the one in here.“It wou

Then, without any warning, the two burst into laughter at the same time. The man extended his long arms and pulled Sally toward him. “Happy now?“You little b*stard.” “Am I one?” Sally pouted as she lounged in his arms. “I think I’m quite kind after comparing myself to your savior, who pretended to faint after having one sip of a laxative, alright?” Elijah nodded and kissed her on the cheek. “You have a point.” Then, the man could not help but sigh as he said, “Wren wasn’t always like this. She would always reprimand her sister whenever she got into any trouble. I never had to worry about her.“It’s probably also my fault that she… turned this way all of a sudden. I was too kind to her, and she’s forgotten her place.” Suddenly interested, Sally raised her head and gazed at Elijah with clear eyes. “Tell me, who is she to you?” “A friend of mine.” Elijah did not hesitate as he answered. “Perhaps slightly more intimate than just a friend. She’s the kind of friend who can

Then, the man sighed and said, “To be honest, I also thought I was disturbing uncle and auntie’s lives some time ago. So, I made a scrapbook out of our photos and experiences together.” Elijah stared into space. His voice sounded far away as he said, “I had someone line the edges of the scrapbook with a gold-embossed metal so that it would last forever…” “I initially did that to preserve the scrapbook, but I never imagined… the scrapbook ended up getting lost during that fire three years ago.” Then, he shook his head in regret. “Seth guessed that because the scrapbook was embossed with gold, that whoever whom found it must have taken it for themselves and extracted the gold…” The man lowered his head and pinched Sally’s nose lightly. “It’s a pity, but thankfully you’re back now.“We’ll have plenty to commemorate in the future…” Sally pursed her lips and did not say anything as she held his hand. How was she going to tell him that the scrapbook was sandwiched between the co

Sally gripped her phone angrily, “What was he doing before this?” “When Evonne gave up everything to be with him, he was the one who chased her off, saying he never wanted to see her again in his life. What is he doing now?” “Is he only regretting things now that they’ve broken up?” The longer Sally spoke, the angrier she became. “He shouldn’t have let her go in the first place if he knew he would still be hung up over her now!” “Yes.” Elijah sighed softly. “So, Sal.” The man said in a deep, sincere voice. “I feel so lucky that you’re willing to accept me again.” Sally’s grip on her phone faltered. Startled, it took her a couple of seconds to realize that Elijah had connected what she had just said to himself. “I regretted everything on the third day of our breakup.” Elijah was standing on the top floor of the building that housed Moses Corporation. As he stared at the traffic through the window, he said in a gentle, loving voice, “But you were already gone by then.

She had chosen her husband herself. She had been the one who told him she liked roses. Thus, she would not blame him. She would blame herself for being blind and not knowing how to speak! By the time Sally got back to the main entrance, the fleet of roses had arrived at the research institute. Nearly all the female employees at the research institute were standing at the door. They all had the same idea in their mind. What if the flowers were for them? Even if the flowers weren’t for them, everything would be worth it if they could take a picture with that massive fleet of roses! One of Sally’s female colleagues began chatting with her. “Dr. Summers, are you still single?” Sally pursed her lips and frowned as she chose her words carefully. “My children are already five years old.” “Oh, is that so.” Her female colleague sighed disappointedly. “I thought someone was coming over with a huge fleet of roses to woo you on your first day of work, Dr. Summers.” Then, she
