If there was a bed available, Sally would, without a doubt, jump in and get some sleep!After forcing herself to feed Elijah, she returned to her seat to eat.She almost fell asleep several times while eating.As she muddled through to school, Sally, who always listened carefully in class, felt the temptation of sleeping in class for the first time.'I'm just too sleepy.'Few other students in the class were as attentive as she was, so sleeping through one lesson should be all right.However, reality told her it was wishful thinking.The first lesson was advanced mathematics.The advanced mathematics teacher sternly told Sally to stand up and listen. "You're the only one who's hardworking in your class. Now you're slacking off too? Stand and listen to me! Reflect on your behavior!"Sally had no choice but to stand through the whole lesson in a muddle.The second lesson was politics.Entirely outside the norm, the politics teacher asked Sally to stand on the podium as a teach
"When that happens, don't be mad at me."Sally looked at her and smiled. "I have to go to the nursing home after lunch."Evonne poked the spaghetti on her plate with her spoon and fork. "Take it easy. I don't want to collect your body."Knowing that she meant well, Sally took her fried drumstick and put it on her plate. "Now, eat up. Don't you have to attend dance class this afternoon?""Hmph!"After lunch with Evonne, Sally hopped on the bus to the nursing home.She was so sleepy that she fell asleep on the bus and woke up at the terminal.She had no choice but to stick a tack into the back of her hand in an effort to remind herself not to fall asleep.However, even so, by the time she got to the nursing home, she was late."Why are you so late?"Mindy rolled her eyes at her and shoved a bunch of dirty sheets into her hands. "Wash them."Sally nodded and went to the laundry room, only to find that all the washing machines were out of power.She had to return to Mindy."Th
In Javier's opinion, Sally was married to a rich old man, so she should be living a life of luxury.Did people not say that older men knew how to pamper their wives?Could it be that... the old man refused to give her money and had been abusing her?"It's not about whether it's worth it."Sally was so tired that she neither had the energy nor mood to talk to Javier. "I'm tired, Javier. I'm going to get some sleep."With that, she closed her eyes, leaned back in her chair, and went straight to sleep.'I'm so sleepy and tired.'After a whole day without a good rest, and a lot of hard work in the nursing home, she felt drained.Sitting in the driver's seat, Javier looked at the girl that had a tired expression face through the rearview mirror. He felt uncomfortable.As he prepared to turn at the intersection at Swan Lake Villa, he made up his mind and drove the car in the opposite direction.That old man was not worth all the work she had done for him.The man had not even call
“So hungry…”Moses Villa.Sally was seduced into waking up by the overflowing fragrance of food.“You’ve woken up?”Elijah’s cool, unreasonable voice sounded beside her, “Time to feed me.”Sally jolted and then crawled up from the table.She was now sitting at the side of the Moses Villa dining table, and her whole body was leaning against it.The man with black silk covering his eyes was seated elegantly in the chair opposite her. His movements were graceful as he lifted a teacup to sip at.She was truly starving. “Can I eat first…”“Naturally, you can eat after I’ve had my fill.”Elijah smiled lightly. “Hasn’t it always been like this?”Sally furrowed her eyebrows. She secretly felt a little displeased, but she did not show it.Sally took a deep breath and pushed herself up forcefully before going to sit at his side and then feeding him.After feeding him, she started wolfing the food down.When she had only taken a few bites, the man started making noise about wanting
The girl’s pure white nightgown bunched up in the clear water, revealing her curvaceous figure.Her long, dark hair floated on the surface of the water.Elijah narrowed his eyes. He raised his hands and fished her out of the water before carrying her to the bed in long strides.“Get Dr. Chinn here.”After hanging up the phone, he sat on the side of the bed. With a towel in hand, he carefully wiped off the beads of water on her face.This woman. Even though she was so tired that she actually fainted, she was unwilling to frankly tell him about her recent trials.She had always said that she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. However, she had never treated him like he was her husband.That night, at the Moses family house’s back garden, she appeared before his eyes. She blinked at him with her big eyes.“I’ll be your family from now on. I’ll always be with you.”The girl’s clear voice replayed in his ears.He stroked her glossy lips as he played with them helplessl
Elijah nodded.Originally, he had planned to not let her rest, making it so that she had to beg him for mercy and then tell him all her tribulations.He thought that, by doing so, she would have an impression of him and would remember to tell him if anything happened in the future.Only, he had not imagined the woman’s stubbornness and tenacity to surpass his expectations.She was even more willing to faint rather than vent at him and beg for mercy.She was clearly such a soft and drab little brat, yet she was so stubborn that she made one feel helpless.“This will be my first time sleeping over at your place, huh? How strange.”Jameson chuckled and placed a single hand on Elijah’s shoulder. “As expected, you’ve become more humane after marriage.”Upon saying this, he felt that he did not have the right to say so either.“However, if you really are humane, how could you allow your own wife to exhaust herself to the point of unconsciousness in front of you?”Elijah could not b
Elijah had clearly been in a bad mood the night before. However, after she fell asleep, not only did he not wake her up, but he even got someone to carry her to bed.He had a gentle side too.Sally was a very easily-pleased girl.Her lips raised in a smile, and she walked downstairs in a good mood.In the living room downstairs, Elijah could be seen dressed in all-black clothing and leaning on the couch. Additionally, one of his hands was holding a teacup which he was sipping from.A man wearing white could also be seen sitting next to him, chattering away about the Moses family’s gossip.“You don’t know, but Wendell has become the laughingstock of high society in the last few days.“As the eldest grandson of the Moses family, he’s already near thirty. Nonetheless, merely after a few days of taking a company from his grandfather’s hands to manage, he caused the Greene family to make a racket at the door. Not only did he lose face, but even the company was also returned!“He has
It was an involuntary smile that came from her heart.Sunlight shone through the window and onto the girl’s body, coloring her black hair gold. A lock of hair dangled playfully beside her ear, moving in the air along with her smile.Instinctively, the man reached out his hand and tucked that lock of hair behind her ear, revealing her clean profile.Sally originally had all her attention focused on Jameson and Blair. Being touched by him like that, she was immediately brought back to her senses.Upon realizing what had happened, the girl’s face reddened involuntarily.“Thank you.”After a moment, she wrinkled her brows once more. “You… How did you know…”He was blind, was he not? How could he know a lock of her hair had fallen?Otherwise, he would have only wanted to touch her, and it was a coincidence that he happened to touch that lock of hair?Elijah did not answer her question and merely changed the subject calmly. “You slept too deeply this morning. I answered a call for y
