Lydia looked at her noticeably expanded waistline and realized she couldn't continue to indulge herself like this.

Her life seemed to revolve around eating and playing. Therefore, Lydia insisted on ending this honeymoon trip!

Back on the soil of Nova City, Lydia was in high spirits. Just as they stepped out of the airport, Lambert's phone rang.

After taking the call, Lambert's expression softened even more.

"What's wrong? Who's calling?" Lydia couldn't help but ask. Whoever could make Lambert show such an expression, aside from herself and their darling, seemed non-existent at the moment.

Seeing Lydia's curious and slightly jealous tone, Lambert couldn't help but smirk. "It's someone important to both you and me!"

"Hmm? Stop teasing, just tell me!" Lydia raised an eyebrow.

Lambert played along, "Alright, alright! My dear wife, it's your uncle calling. He wants us to have dinner at the Queen Hotel today. He said there's something important to discuss with us! Isn't he someone important

    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

    "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.

    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.

    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!

    "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.
