Lydia pursed her lips and walked directly towards the room door, only to be stopped by the two guards.
"Miss, you can't go in here!"
"I am Lambert's wife, I have the right to visit my husband!"
"Sorry, we only recognize Lambert's parents. Without their permission, no one can enter!"
Lydia's face turned paler. She took a deep breath, suppressing her anger and worry. "Please, I'm really worried about him. I just want to take a quick look. Please."
The two guards remained expressionless. Their employer was Nydia, so even if they sympathized with Lydia, they wouldn't let her in.
Lydia's pleas fell on deaf ears. The guards stood there like robots, not giving Lydia any leeway.
As Lydia fretted, a sharp voice filled her ears. "What are you doing here?"
Lydia turned and saw Nydia standing angrily in front of her. Perhaps from taking care of Lambert in recent days, she looked somewhat haggard, her eyes bloodshot, giving her a more sinis
Moreover, she needed some rest.At eight o'clock in the evening, Lydia woke up on time. After eating something, she began to wait for Horace's arrival.Two hours later, there was a knock on the door of the ward. Lydia quickly got up to open it and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Horace."Horace, you're here."Horace looked at the nervous Lydia with some amusement. "Since I promised you, of course, I'll come.""Yeah, I know. So, Horace, shall we go now?""No, we need to wait a little longer. Nydia and the others have gone back now. There's only one nurse in Lambert's ward. Let's wait a bit. You should change your clothes first!"Lydia then noticed the nurse's uniform he was holding. It turned out he wanted to dress her up as a nurse.In order to see Lambert as soon as possible, Lydia didn't care much and quickly changed her clothes. Soon, a lovely nurse appeared in front of Horace.The light green
Nydia froze, exchanging a shocked look with Odgen. "Lambert, do you... Do you not recognize me? What about your father? Do you remember him?"Lambert's gaze shifted to Odgen's face, then furrowed his brow. After a long pause, he spoke politely, "I'm sorry."Now Nydia was completely convinced that he had amnesia. After countless thoughts, she thought this might be an opportunity. She simply instructed Lambert to rest well and then pulled Odgen out of the ward.Meanwhile, Lambert in the room stared blankly at the white ceiling, feeling like he had forgotten someone very important.Coming out of the doctor's office, Nydia and Odgen stood in the hospital corridor, both looking serious.The results of the previous examinations had come out, indicating that Lambert's condition was due to a head injury from the car accident, which had damaged his memory cortex, causing him to forget them."I wonder if Lambert's memory will ever recover. What if he
Horace and Lennon shook their heads. "Uncle, you're too kind. You're Lambert's father, and Lambert is our friend. Besides, we've known each other for years.""Yeah, Uncle, just tell us what you want."Odgen stopped being polite. "I know you're all Lambert's good friends, and by now, you all know about Lambert's condition, right?"Horace nodded, knowing Lambert's condition better than anyone.Odgen sighed. "Actually, today, I have something to ask of you! I, Odgen, only have one son, and nobody wishes for his health and happiness more than me. We had a lot of unpleasantness regarding his marriage before, but no matter what, there's no bad blood between father and son. His mother and I both want him to have a happy family.""Uncle, I don't quite understand. If you care about Lambert so much, why can't you accept him being with Lydia? Besides, they already have such a smart and lovely son!""Wythe is indeed lovely, and we like him very much. Bu
"Or maybe both?" Horace's tone was mocking. "With Lambert's looks and background, few women wouldn't be tempted. I think Odelia is quite scheming!"Lennon snorted. "A fox will always show its tail. Let's just wait and see. What worries me the most now is whether Lambert has truly forgotten about Lydia and Wythe. If so, what will happen to them?"Horace fell into silence too. They really didn't know how to break the news to Lydia.Sure enough, not long after, Lydia found Horace. She had heard the news of Lambert waking up and wanted Horace's help once again.However, this time, Horace refused Lydia. "I'm sorry, Lydia, but I can't help you this time. I can't even go see Lambert myself."Lydia's eyes dimmed at his words. Horace sighed. "There's actually something else I think I should tell you in advance. Lambert... he's lost his memory!""Uncle, are you saying Dad lost his memory? Does he not remember us?" Wythe's eyes widened in disbelief!
"Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and, of course, our child!"Hearing the word "child," Lambert's eyes softened gradually. "Yes, take good care of yourself."Nydia was increasingly satisfied with Lambert's response.She exchanged a glance with Ogden, joy evident in her eyes.Nydia was in a great mood as she left the hospital room, that is, until she encountered Lydia."What bad luck! How could this woman be here?""Aunt, don't forget, she's here for treatment too," Odelia whispered softly beside her.Just as Nydia was about to ignore Lydia and walk away, Lydia stepped forward, blocking her path."What do you want? Don't you know better than to block someone's way?" Nydia looked at Lydia with great displeasure. This uncouth woman was truly detestable!Lydia's face was pale. She looked up at Nydia, her unflinching attitude surprising Nydia somewhat. Not long ago, this woman was weeping bitterly under her humiliation.How had she regained her confidence so quickly?"Mrs. Hals
Odelia's expression turned somber. "It was an accident. That night, I was in a bad mood and got drunk. When I woke up, we were... together. I intended to leave right away, but my aunt found out and told your mother. So, we ended up together."Lambert felt that this was something he might have done, explaining why he didn't feel any special affection for this woman even when she stood before him. They were only together out of a sense of duty. But now, they were his responsibility.Lambert patted Odelia's hand. "Don't worry. I will take good care of you and the child from now on."Odelia looked up, her face full of joy, making Lambert feel even more guilty.What Lambert didn't know was that this entire exchange was witnessed by Wythe through the window.Wythe's beautiful eyes were filled with anger as he watched the intimate scene between the man and woman inside. If looks could kill, they would have died many times over, especially that woman who had seduced his father.For some time,
Reality proved much more challenging than Lydia had anticipated.Lambert's parents strictly controlled access to his room, and Lydia had no one to help her.She was truly at a loss.One day, taking advantage of a moment when Nydia and others left, Lydia donned an outfit she had specially bought from a nurse, and, with a nervous heart, attempted to sneak in as she had done before.At first, everything seemed to go smoothly. The bodyguards didn't stop her. However, just as she was about to reach Lambert's bedside, a voice halted her."Wait a minute!" Lydia's steps froze, her fingers trembling slightly as she instinctively lowered her head.Odelia, eyeing Lydia's back suspiciously, had only gone out to buy some water. Why was a nurse here now? No one should be doing rounds at this hour."Who told you to come in?"Lydia feigned calmness. "Dr. Horace gave last-minute instructions to do another check-up.""Really? Then hurry up!" Odelia, not giving it much thought, sat on a sofa nearby and
“Andrew, how do I look?” Lydia asked nervously.“You look stunning, absolutely captivating. You’ll surely be the center of attention,” Andrew replied, unable to hide his admiration.Lydia blushed slightly. She wasn’t seeking the attention of everyone, just Lambert’s.Once ready, they both got into the car and headed to the Queen Hotel, where the banquet was being held.On the other side, Nydia and Odgen had already arrived at the hotel early. Nydia skimmed through the guest list, her eyes landing on a particular name.“Did you send an invitation to that Andrew?” she asked, frowning.Odgen chuckled. “Is there a problem with that?”Nydia frowned deeper. “He’ll surely bring Lydia with him. If Lambert sees her and regains his memory, all our efforts to make him believe Odelia is his wife will be for nothing.”“Don’t worry, they won’t even get a chance to meet. I’ve already made arrangements,” Odgen assured her confidently.Feeling a bit more at ease, Nydia nodded. “As long as you have thi
