Wythe nodded, feeling strangely curious. "Uncle Fraine, where's my mom?"

Andrew placed the prepared dinner on the table. "Your mom is sick. Her fever just subsided, so she might need some more rest."

Wythe learned for the first time that his mom was actually sick.

As they spoke, the door opened, and Lydia stumbled out, still half-asleep, with disheveled hair.

"Mom, are you feeling better?"

"Lydia, are you feeling any better?"

Wythe and Andrew spoke simultaneously, both looking at Lydia with concern.

"I'm fine, just feeling a bit hungry."

Andrew reached out to feel her forehead. "Looks like the fever's gone. As long as you're hungry, that's good. Dinner's ready; try my cooking."

Lydia felt a bit embarrassed. "Thank you for today, Andrew."

"Why be so polite with me? We've known each other for more than just a day or two."

Lydia smiled. Indeed, Andrew had always been considerate of her at school.

"Alright, let's sit down and eat!"

Lydia nodded, and Andrew promptly prepared utensils for h

He carefully held Lydia's hand, his eyes filled with affection. He almost stuttered as he spoke, "Lydia, I will take good care of you!"Lydia sighed inwardly, suppressing whatever emotions she felt and trying hard to adapt to Andrew's affection.Fortunately, Andrew understood that this matter couldn't be rushed. Lydia was giving him a chance, and he was already very happy about that. As for the rest, he wasn't in a hurry.The years of their relationship weren't fake.

    “Don't be foolish! Penny has nothing to regret! Since even Nydia has admitted Penny, even if Lambert doesn't love Penny, so what? As long as she becomes his wife, nothing else matters!”"Sigh, I'm just worried. What if Lambert no longer feels threatened by us? I heard that he and that Lydia had a fight and broke up, so we might not be able to control him in the future."Wythe was astonished to hear this!So that's it! He knew his dad suddenly treating Penny so well must have something to do with Mom!In that moment, Wythe was excited. He couldn't wait to tell Lydia immediately, to make it clear to her that Dad hadn't betrayed her but was protecting her in his own way!Deciding to inform Lydia as soon as possible, Wythe didn't go directly to Lambert but turned and left the hospital, heading to Lydia's workplace.Wythe's sudden arrival puzzled Lydia. Especially seeing him gasping for breath, Lydia couldn't help but pick him up. "What's wrong, honey? What's the rush?""Mom, I already kno

    Shortly after, Lambert strode away while Andrew stood there, unable to regain his senses for a long while.When he prepared to chase after Lambert, he found that Lambert's figure was nowhere to be seen."Lambert! Let go of me!" Lydia struggled and wriggled incessantly on Lambert's shoulder, intense shame turning her face as red as a beet."Behave yourself!" Lambert's voice was low as his large palm patted Lydia's buttocks twice.Lydia widened her eyes in astonishment, feeling everything going wrong. He was punishing her like a child? Lydia's body froze, allowing Lambert to carry her to the parking lot.It wasn't until they were seated in the car that Lydia finally regained her senses, her eyes blazing with anger. She reached out and slapped Lambert's face.Lambert caught her wrist with one hand, his deep eyes now filled with fury. With his other hand, he swiftly fastened the seatbelt, restraining her in her seat."What do you want?" Lydia glared at Lambert. "We've broken up! Andrew is

    Warm fingers intertwined with Lydia's hand, accompanied by a familiar scent. "Lydia..."Tears fell more fiercely from Lydia's eyes at that moment. She lay there, not wanting to move at all.Lambert sighed softly, reaching out to stroke her long hair. His voice was low as he spoke, "I'm sorry. I didn't realize this would matter to you so much. But believe me, there's an explanation for all of this."Lydia gradually stopped her tears, her emotions calming. She gathered both her distress and vulnerability, leaving only reason and composure."Fine! Speak," she said."Lydia, I never loved Penny. My actions towards her were merely a necessity dictated by circumstances. They caught you in a compromising position. If you were to be prosecuted, you'd face at least three years in prison."Lambert lowered his eyes with a hint of helplessness and regret. He loathed his own powerlessness. "Lydia, I don't want to see you in prison...""So you sacrificed your dignity to deceive Penny, is that what y

    Wythe's voice was low, but it struck Lydia like thunder, waking her up completely.She hadn't realized that their time together had deepened Wythe's feelings for Lambert so much.Lydia fell into contemplation. It was her fault that Wythe had been without a father for so long, and now, just as he had finally found one, she had to go back on her word because of the issues between the adults.Seeing Wythe's face, so much like Lambert's, Lydia's heart softened. She reached out to ruffle his hair. "I'm sorry, darling. I haven't been considering your feelings. But I promise, I won't forget them from now on!"Wythe looked at her oddly, then listened as Lydia continued, "I should have explained better before. Sweetheart, whether your dad and I are together or not, we'll always be your parents and love you just the same. So, don't worry."Wythe wrinkled his nose. "I'm not worried. I just want you and dad to make up."Lydia gave a bitter smile. Make up? Easier said than done.Seeing Lydia's exp

    Andrew wasn't too concerned. Although he vaguely suspected that Lydia might have been detained by Lambert, he was already happy that she could reach out to him for help.Wythe had already set aside his computer and raised an eyebrow at Lydia. "Mom, you don't have to worry now! Dad won't notice we're gone for a while.""What did you do?" Andrew was quite curious.Wythe smirked proudly. "I just created signal interference using the computer, so Uncle Bodyguard's calls couldn't reach Dad's phone.""But if you disappear like this, Lambert might turn the whole city upside down."Although this statement diminished his own prestige, Andrew couldn't help but suspect that Lambert would do just that, considering his previous demeanor."It's okay, I've left a message for Dad, but he won't receive it until an hour later! By then, we'll have already found a place to stay!"Andrew was utterly impressed by the genius of this child. Before even contacting him, Wythe had already thought of so much."L

    Lambert snapped back to reality, finding Penny's parents calling for him, while Penny stared at his face intently."Is something wrong?"Penny's parents exchanged a glance. "Lambert, well, you and Penny seem to get along quite well. We've also talked to your parents. Our idea is for you and Penny to get married as soon as possible!""Married?" Lambert raised an eyebrow, sounding surprised.Sensing Lambert's unusual tone, Penny's face fell. "Mom, Dad, can I talk to Lambert alone?""Sure, since it's your own matter, you two discuss it." Penny's parents left the ward, leaving Penny to confront Lambert directly. "Lambert, have you ever considered marrying me?"Lambert frowned but remained silent.Penny sneered, "I know you still have feelings for Lydia. I'm not asking you to fall in love with me, but since both our families are so eager for us to marry, isn't this the best solution? Of course, you can refuse, but then you should know what awaits Lydia!"Penny's usually graceful face twist

    And he felt, perhaps what his mother wanted wasn't his comfort after all.After a moment's thought, Wythe spoke up, "Mom, do you want to meet Dad?""Meet him?""Yeah!" Wythe blinked his big eyes. "Mom, do you want to see Dad?"Wythe's words stirred a tempest in Lydia's heart, but they also eased her pain a bit. Meeting Lambert, confronting him, maybe even pleading with him not to marry Penny.At that moment, the idea circled particularly strong in Lydia's mind. She wiped her tears. "Sweetheart, do you think I should meet Lambert?"It wasn't a question in her tone, but rather an affirmation, and Wythe knew his mother just sought validation.Seeing her son affirm her decision, Lydia ceased to agonize. She decided to follow her heart and have a good talk with Lambert.In the elegantly decorated café, piano music flowed gently, accompanied by the wafting scent of coffee, filling the air with tranquility and elegance.In the window booth, Lydia sat somewhat anxiously on the large leather s

    "Lambert, at this rate, you could almost switch careers to become a nanny!" Horace teased, noticing how expertly Lambert cradled the baby.Unfazed by his friend's jest, Lambert beamed with happiness. "You wouldn't understand if you don't have kids. Once you get married, you'll know. This is my legacy, and I didn't get to care for Wythe when he was a baby, so I'm determined to be hands-on with Candice."No one could truly grasp this sense of compensation!Horace rolled his eyes, clearly at a loss for words. It was pointless to engage with someone so enamored with fatherhood.While the men gathered to chat, Thera leaned closer to Lydia and whispered, "So, Lydia, are you really back together with Lambert?"Lydia nodded. "Yeah. After everything that happened, I realized I need to cherish every single day. And Lambert is sincere—I can feel it.""That's great!" Thera sighed in relief, finally putting her worries to rest."What about you, Thera? I see you and Andrew getting along quite well!

    At this moment, Lambert felt completely at ease. It seemed that Lydia's earlier words were not just talk; she was genuinely ready to give them a chance!A smile crept onto Lambert's lips, but there was no time to think of anything else; he needed to take care of their baby, Wythe. Thanks to the maternal training classes he had attended with Lydia, he had learned a lot about caring for newborns. Gently, he picked up his daughter and quickly checked her diaper, only to find that she had wet it.With nimble hands, he changed her diaper, and the little one fell back asleep. Looking at her innocent face, Lambert's heart melted. This was his child, the result of his and Lydia's love.The baby slept soundly, and Wythe had been temporarily taken away by Bob, who had come to deliver some items. Now, only Lambert and Lydia remained in the room, but Lydia, having slept quite a bit earlier, was no longer drowsy."Are you still feeling unwell?" Seeing Lydia frown slightly, Lambert asked with conce

    Lambert glanced at his son's disapproving expression and was momentarily at a loss. "Wythe, you might've looked even more wrinkled than her when you were born, yet look at you now—a handsome young man," he teased, smiling at his daughter. Though wrinkly, he found her to be the most beautiful and precious little girl.Wythe huffed proudly, his lips in a slight pout. "I wasn't this ugly! Besides, you didn't see me when I was a baby." A hint of sadness crossed his face; he hadn't been as lucky as his sister—he hadn't had his dad by his side when he was born.Hearing the touch of bitterness in his son's voice, Lambert immediately understood. Wythe was jealous, understandably so. For all his maturity, Wythe was still just a child. For his first five or six years, he had only his mother and no father. He often envied kids with both parents, and when Lydia finally returned home, her on-again, off-again relationship with Lambert had left Wythe hurt and forced him to grow up faster than other

    Lambert paced restlessly in the hallway, nearly losing his mind. Every moment was agonizing, with Lydia's screams from the delivery room piercing his heart. He prided himself on being strong, yet in that instant, he felt an overwhelming urge to flee, especially as her cries of pain echoed through. Angry at himself, he slapped his own face—Lydia was suffering because of him, and he'd never realized how terrifying childbirth could be."Calm down. This is what childbirth is like," a woman nearby said kindly. She was the mother of a little girl, and both she and her husband couldn't help but notice how visibly nervous Lambert was. "You've been through this once before, so you should be able to handle it," she added."Why isn't it over yet? Is she in danger?" Lambert's mind was in turmoil, fighting the urge to rush inside and see Lydia himself.The little girl's father stepped in, attempting to reassure him. "You and your family will be just fine," he said. The man recalled his own frantic

    At that moment, Lydia was on the verge of total collapse, as if her entire world had crumbled in an instant, and sorrow overwhelmed her.What had she done? What had she been doing these past days?She had been recklessly indulging in Lambert's affection, without any sense of gratitude or restraint. Now, she regretted her actions deeply. If only she had known this day would come, she would never have argued with Lambert or dismissed his love and efforts out of a misguided sense of pride.All she wanted was for him to be safe, to live happily with her and their children, never to be apart.Lydia's vision blurred as she stood in shock, unable to step closer to the crowd to confirm what had happened. But through a gap, she caught sight of a blood-red stain spreading across the ground. The sight was so jarring that it felt as though her heart had been ripped out of her chest."Mom, are you okay?"Wythe ran over, panting, to see Lydia sitting dazed on the ground, staring at the red stain in

    Lambert's words made Wythe roll his eyes, secretly exasperated. What was going on with his dad? Wasn't everything decided? Why was he suddenly backing out at the last moment?Men! Their thoughts are just impossible to figure out!Lambert had indeed changed his mind unexpectedly. He didn't want to deceive Lydia, even if it was just a harmless joke. Something about it felt wrong. Even if it was to bring them closer, lying to her didn't seem right.Wythe's plan had been simple he wanted Lambert to stage an accident, making it seem like he'd been hit by a car. He was certain his mom would show her true feelings; if she still cared for him, there was no way she'd just stand by. It was a good plan, but now that the moment had come, Lambert didn't want to test Lydia this way.People's feelings shouldn't be tested.Wythe grew increasingly anxious. They'd prepared everything, but now his dad was retreating? That wasn't like him at all! Taking advantage of n

    Half a month had passed since Lydia's last check-up. Lambert continued caring for Lydia with the same attentiveness, unbothered by her cold attitude towards him. Although her indifference saddened him, he was undeterred; his determination grew in the face of difficulty, a testament to his personality.But little Wythe had had enough. He felt it was time to give his parents a nudge towards reconciliation. Yes, it was his turn to step up!So, one morning, when Lambert went out early to buy groceries as usual, Wythe found an excuse to tag along. Lydia didn't think much of it; over time, she had noticed Lambert's earnest efforts and couldn't deny feeling somewhat touched, even if her heart remained conflicted. Deep down, she feared reopening herself to love, only to be hurt again.After all, "Once bitten, twice shy," as they say. Lydia never saw herself as particularly brave—in fact, in love, she was timid and afraid. She longed for a peaceful, uncomplicated l

    Once, Lydia believed she and Lambert would grow old together, inseparable and loyal. But her genuine love had only brought repeated hurt and disappointment. That's why she had fled Nova City, leaving behind everyone she knew, so this time, she refused to open her heart again.Lambert sighed, his tone gentle. He knew Lydia wouldn't easily open up to him again, but he didn't mind; he was willing to wait. Determined, he led her to the prenatal clinic, aware of the many tests ahead—ultrasounds, blood tests, monitoring the baby's heartbeat—a series of over ten examinations. Each department was exceptionally busy, requiring an immense amount of patience.Throughout, Lambert remained unwaveringly attentive, showing no sign of impatience. He stayed by Lydia's side with the eager anticipation of any expectant father, his heart fully in it.Before the ultrasound, Lydia needed to drink water, but Lambert, inexperienced in these matters, hadn't prepared any. She didn't feel inclined to remind him

    Happiness, it seems, makes people wish the same for those around them. Like the husband in the next hospital bed—he had the sense to keep quiet the moment he sensed the tension between Lydia and Lambert.Lambert didn't seem to mind Lydia's sudden outburst. He simply took off his suit jacket, now stained with soup, and said regretfully, "The soup spilled, Lydia. I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little longer. I'll have someone bring a new one right away! Why not have a piece of cake to tide you over?"Lambert's calm demeanor only made Lydia feel as if her anger was landing on nothing but soft cotton, frustrating her even more. What was Lambert up to? Was he mocking her on purpose?It was infuriating!Lydia knew her emotions were out of sorts lately. Ever since Lambert left, she hadn't had much of an appetite. When she found out his trip was delayed, everything around her began to irritate her. It was as though a cloud of anger clogged her heart, but she couldn't find a way to let it ou
