Lydia prayed in her heart, wishing that if there were a next life, her mother could live in peace and happiness, enjoying a lifetime of joy!Kevin stayed at Natalie's grave for a long time, not saying anything, yet it seemed like he had said a thousand words.When he finally left, Lydia noticed his eyes were slightly red. "Men shed tears only when they reach their hearts' deepest sorrows," but he hadn't reached that point yet.Lydia felt heavy-hearted. Coming out of the cemetery, she saw luggage in Kevin's car."Uncle, are you planning to travel?"Kevin smiled faintly, "Lydia, I was just about to tell you. Today, I'm leaving for the United States. I might settle there permanently in the future, so we may not see each other often anymore!"Lydia was surprised. "Uncle, you're leaving? Why didn't you tell us earlier, so we could see you off..."Kevin smiled warmly, patting Lydia's shoulder affectionately. "Lydia, there's no need for goodbyes. I know you have this intention, and that's en
Wythe sensed his father's unease, his pale face quietly standing by Lambert's side.He knew that his father must be feeling very sad right now, and he couldn't let his father be more distressed.They waited for three long hours until the green light outside the emergency room finally lit up.Lambert hurriedly approached, his voice anxious, "Doctor, how is my wife now?"The attending doctor's expression was grave, indicating that the surgical outcome was not satisfactory. "I'm sorry, we did our best..."Before he could finish his sentence, Lambert's hand gripped his collar forcefully, his cold and terrifying gaze meeting the doctor's. "What did you say?"Lambert's voice was low, but his chilling aura made everyone shudder. Several doctors quickly stepped forward to restrain Lambert."How dare you lay hands on someone? We said we did our best. This patient was already in critical condition when brought in, especially with a head injury. Her current condition is already quite good.""So
"It's okay! Anyway, I need to get the medical equipment you mentioned as soon as possible!"Horace looked at Lambert's determination and had no choice but to call Boone. Perhaps Lambert's stubbornness matched Boone's!While Horace and Boone were in contact, Lambert quickly contacted his assistant, Bob, and some necessary personnel!He swiftly arranged for a helicopter. Once Horace confirmed, they would transport the equipment over. Of course, he also contacted international medical authorities to come here for consultation!Half an hour later, Lydia was finally temporarily pushed into the intensive care unit, and Lambert and the others could only watch her lying in bed through the window.Just as the doctor said, Lydia's condition was not good. She had a ventilator on her face and tubes all over her body.Doctors would enter from time to time to record her condition, while Horace was discussing new treatment plans with several medical elites
Whether it was his prayers or Lydia's fate, after two hours of rescue efforts, Lydia's condition stabilized once again.Lydia's repeated setbacks made Horace even more vigilant. The number of doctors on duty in the intensive care unit increased from two to four!At six in the morning, Wythe woke up from the single bed in the duty room. His first thought was to visit his mom, ignoring even his hunger.Fortunately, Lambert remembered that his little one was still growing and couldn't skip breakfast.He quickly called his assistant, Bob, and had some delicious food brought over for Wythe.But no matter how delicious the food was, Wythe was indifferent. He quickly had breakfast with Lambert and couldn't help but ask, "Dad, how's mom doing after last night?"Lambert responded by ruffling his hair, "Don't worry, your mom will get better!"Wythe was worried and felt a little sad. Since he was born, he had always been by his mom's side and ha
The sudden car accident indeed caught Lambert off guard, but it didn't make him give up.He and Lydia had just gotten married, and they had a long future ahead. He believed they would have a good future together.Two days later, Lydia finally woke up.She felt as if she had been in a long dream. She vaguely remembered driving to the Queen Hotel to celebrate with Lambert when a large truck came straight at her.Then, she was plunged into darkness, unable to find an exit.Startled awake, Lydia cried out, "Lambert! Lambert!"Her eyes widened, but she found herself still surrounded by darkness, just like in her eerie dream—a never-ending tunnel with no light at the end.Instinctively reaching out, she felt something on her hand, perhaps an IV drip. Blinking, she realized she was in a hospital. But why weren't the lights on?"Is anyone there?"Footsteps hurried over, followed by a sweet voice, "You're awake! That's wond
"I understand. I'll find the right moment to tell her," Lambert said calmly.But deep down, he was torn apart.How could Lydia be blind? She was so kind and beautiful. Why did she have to suffer like this?Moreover, she was a fashion designer; without her eyesight, her career and dreams would be shattered.Lambert's fingers trembled as he returned to the room. He saw Lydia sitting quietly on the bed, her face pale from blood loss, fragile and helpless.Unconsciously, she hugged herself, her long black hair scattered behind her. Her once bright and lively eyes now seemed dim, though she was still beautiful.But the undeniable truth was that she couldn't see anymore.From initial panic, Lydia had turned into a cold calmness.Yet, beneath the surface, her heart was in turmoil.Negative emotions surged within her, making her want to scream, to be angry, to destroy and collapse everything.Perhaps it was her imaginatio
Lydia felt extremely frustrated. She clenched her lips and angrily questioned Pag, "How did you hold the glass? You let go before I had a grip on it!"At that moment, Lambert, who heard the commotion, walked into the room.He saw the mess by the bedside, Lydia sitting there with an unfriendly expression, her eyes devoid of any light.On the other side, Pag, dressed in a pink nurse uniform, looked aggrieved as she crouched down to clean up the broken glass."I'm sorry, it's all my fault!" Lydia knew she had misplaced her anger. Suddenly going blind made even simple tasks like drinking water difficult for her. Her pride was crumbling, and she felt defeated.Seeing this scene, Lambert's heart felt heavy. Lydia's anger and irritability might just be a way to mask her inner turmoil.But it seemed like this nurse had become the target of her displaced anger.Stepping forward, Lambert addressed Pag, "That's enough. You can leave now. I'll take care of things here."Pag's heart leaped with jo
Not long after Lambert had left, she had already woken up. It was vaguely as if she had heard him and Pag say something.What do you have to say to avoid her? Lydia felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.So as soon as Pag came back, Lydia couldn't help but ask, "Where did you go just now?"Pag's voice was a little shy, and he seemed to feel a little guilty. "I'm really sorry. Mr. Halsey asked me for something just now.""What is it?"Pag didn't answer immediately, but he was embarrassed and said, "It's nothing, it's a little personal matter."Lydia felt more and more uncomfortable when she heard that. Since when was Lambert willing to talk about private matters with a woman he didn't know well? This didn't sound normal!Looking at the obviously doubtful look on Lydia's face, Pag proudly hooked up the corners of his lips. Doubt it, this is the beginning of the breakdown of their relationship! It is also the beginning of her opportunity.Lydia had no idea at this time that she had be
Lambert presented himself as refined, but his underlying dominance was unmistakable. "That's not the case, Principal. I'm just worried about Lydia's health. She's pregnant, and she's caring for a class full of four- and five-year-olds. If something were to happen, it could be very dangerous for her."The principal furrowed her brow, eyeing him curiously. His concern seemed more like that of a family member than a parent. "While your point is valid, we've already considered this. Surely, you wouldn't expect her to be dismissed? After all, maternity leave is an option now...""Maternity leave is limited," Lambert replied firmly. "Besides, you must know that Lydia can't stay here forever."The principal felt uneasy. Lambert's demeanor and attire suggested he was no ordinary individual; why would he want his family working in such a small place? Something felt off."On what grounds are you so sure?" she asked.Lambert responded with unwavering confiden
Meanwhile, Lydia was feeling quite emotional in her room. The impact of seeing Lambert, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, was overwhelming. He had lost quite a bit of weight, and from his words, it seemed he had been eager to find her ever since he left.It would be a lie to say she wasn't touched; he truly cared about her. She had always held onto him in her heart and never let go. However, the idea of going back because of this was unlikely; after all, she was a stubborn person, and once she made a decision, it wasn't easy to change her mind.Lydia hoped that Lambert would take the hint and leave soon so her life could return to normal. Otherwise, her heart would be in turmoil!As Lambert, whom Lydia hoped would leave, was knocking on the door next door, an elderly man in his sixties opened it, eyeing Lambert suspiciously.Lambert straightened his clothes and spoke with a gentle tone, "Hello, I'm Lambert. The thing is..."Lydia, completely obl
Using their son as a shield might seem a bit embarrassing, but it was undeniably effective. Sure enough, upon hearing Wythe's name, Lydia paused her resistance to Lambert. She struggled to move her legs and began to make her way toward her home.What should have been a short ten-minute walk turned into a half-hour ordeal due to Lydia's difficulty in moving. During this time, she even awkwardly made a trip to the restroom. As she entered the later stages of her pregnancy, not only had her legs swollen, but her trips to the bathroom had also increased significantly. Just moments ago, she had finished a latte, which made the situation even more awkward—suddenly needing to find a restroom while walking.Lambert, while unaware of the many inconveniences pregnancy could bring, couldn't help but feel like a negligent husband and father as he watched Lydia struggle. He realized he knew nothing about what she was going through. Seeing her in such discomfort made his heart
Lambert closed his eyes, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart. He had truly found Lydia!"Sorry, Lydia, I think I got a bit carried away!"Could this be a dream? If it is, he hoped he'd never wake up.Lydia was at a loss for words. This wasn't just being a bit excited; he was clearly overwhelmed!She decided to change the subject. "Lambert, how's Wythe doing?" Her son was the person she cared about most, and the one she felt she owed the most to."He's fine, but he really misses you. I didn't expect that after all this time, you wouldn't even call once."Hearing this, Lydia lowered her head, guilt washing over her. In some ways, she knew she hadn't been a very good mother. She had neglected her son for her own feelings."I'm sorry..."Lambert sighed softly, a mix of emotions swirling within him. "You don't need to apologize, Lydia. It's all my fault. If I hadn't misunderstood you, you wouldn't have felt the need to leave Nov
Debby felt a sudden jolt, her ears turning bright red. Being caught doing something wrong and exposed in public was a uniquely uncomfortable experience."Uh, I..."Lambert's heart raced. Could it be that he finally found the right place? Was Lydia really at this kindergarten?Fearing he might startle her, he spoke gently, his tone patient. "Debby, there's been a misunderstanding between Lydia and me. I care about her deeply, and I can't lose her. I don't know how you've interpreted our situation, but as her friend, I assume you want her to be happy too?"Debby hesitated at his words. Was this man truly a scoundrel? Upon reflection, Lydia had only mentioned that she had divorced her partner and left Nova City due to some circumstances. She had never spoken ill of her ex-husband, so perhaps she had misjudged him?Debby's expression shifted, yet she still seemed unsure. Lambert seized the moment to ask, "Debby, Lydia hasn't left, has she?""How
Lydia could hardly believe her ears, but Debby wouldn't lie to her. So, Lambert had really come looking for her.Her emotions were a whirlwind. It had been nearly five months since she left. During this time, she had come to Y City alone, found a job at a kindergarten, and gradually found some peace.Being away from the chaos allowed Lydia to reflect on herself, and she realized that the situation with Lambert wasn't entirely his fault. While he sometimes acted presumptuously, his intentions were good—he always acted out of concern for himself. Each argument only chipped away at their relationship.No bond can withstand constant fighting.Lost in thought, Lydia absentmindedly traced her fingers over her phone screen. Should she reach out to Lambert? According to Debby, he was probably headed to Rong City.She lowered her gaze, her long eyelashes casting shadows over her troubled eyes. When she first heard that Lambert was looking for her, her
As Lambert stepped out of the apartment, a lost look lingered in his eyes. For the past few months, he had been caught in a cycle of hope and disappointment almost every single day.He should have been used to it by now, but each time he felt let down, hurt, and increasingly restless. The longer the search went on, the more he worried about whether he would ever find Lydia."Hey, don't be too downcast. Finding someone is like this; as long as you persevere, you will eventually locate them!"Lambert nodded at her comforting words, knowing well that now wasn't the time to give up."Lambert, since you haven't found her yet, what's your next move?"He frowned slightly. "I think I'll stay here for a while. According to the information my friend gave me, there might be another Lydia in City Y."She sighed. "You really have it tough. How long do you think it will take to find her? It's like searching for a needle in a haystack!""It's okay;
Upon seeing the information, Lambert felt as though he'd been tirelessly searching, only to stumble upon the answer effortlessly.Watching him hold the household registry, his hands trembling, the elderly woman knew that this young man truly loved his wife. She couldn't help but sigh. Why couldn't people just talk things out calmly instead of storming off? When this Lambert finally found his wife, she made a mental note to have a good talk with her. After all, finding someone who genuinely loves you these days isn't easy, especially someone as handsome and devoted as him.As she shared more advice, Lambert listened attentively. A couple of hours later, there he was, standing outside apartment 803 of Building 6, disguised in a delivery uniform, complete with a sunhat and a package in hand.*Ding dong, ding dong...*Lambert stood at the door, feeling anxious. He feared the person inside wouldn't be Lydia, but also worried they wouldn't answer at all.
The intense longing Lambert felt was like ants gnawing at his heart—an unbearable pain that consumed him. Yet, this separation made him realize even more clearly how deeply Lydia had become a part of his life. Without her, he felt utterly lost, as though she had completely permeated his existence without him even noticing.After a brief rest, Lambert began his search for information. He quietly arrived at the neighborhood where one of the pregnant women named Lydia was living and started asking around about her."You seem unfamiliar. You're not from around here, are you?" An elderly woman approached him, curiosity in her eyes.Lambert's heart leaped at the question. He had been wondering how to start the conversation, and now someone had given him the perfect opportunity. "You've got a sharp eye, ma'am. I'm new here.""I thought so! We don't usually see such a handsome young man in our neighborhood," the woman commented."Are you here for work, or are you planning to settle down? You
