With this realization, Lambert suppressed the inexplicable feelings in his heart and left with Odelia. Lydia, noticing Lambert’s departure, felt unable to stand still any longer.She quietly followed them, hoping no one would notice.Andrew, aware of Lydia’s intentions, also followed her closely.Lambert found the event dull and had no intention of lingering at the hotel. He planned to leave through the side entrance with Odelia.Since he didn’t recognize the guests, he saw no reason to waste time mingling with them.Lydia hurriedly pursued them, intending to wait for Lambert at the side entrance. However, to her surprise, Lambert was nowhere to be seen.She frowned, searching around. She was certain she had seen Lambert and Odelia heading in this direction. Based on her understanding of Lambert, he would likely leave early.“You’re really relentless, aren’t you?” A familiar, mocking voice sounded behind Lydia, causing her to frown. Turning around, she saw Nydia.Nydia approached with
Andrew's suit, once pristine for the party, now hung loosely in his hand, and his tie was nowhere to be found. His shirt had two buttons undone, revealing a pale chest.His face was flushed, and the strong smell of alcohol and his unsteady steps made it clear he was drunk.Lydia was puzzled. How could Andrew be this drunk? At the hotel, he had only had a few sips.Seeing Andrew almost stumble, Lydia rushed to support him. "Andrew, are you okay?"Andrew's eyes were slightly red, and he gripped Lydia's shoulder tightly, causing her pain."Lydia!""I'm here! Andrew, you're drunk. Let's get you to the sofa so you can rest while I make some coffee."Lydia struggled to drag Andrew to the sofa, finally letting out a sigh of relief as she did so. She rubbed her sore shoulder and got up to make some coffee.At that moment, she felt a strong grip on her hand. Andrew pulled her with such force that she felt dizzy. When she regained her senses, she was met with Andrew's pained and determined gaze
Lydia's face was pale, and her dark eyes were filled with unspeakable sorrow."Do you really have to leave?"After a long pause, Andrew finally spoke.He knew that his actions yesterday had frightened Lydia, but he never expected her to be so resolute about leaving."I'm sorry, Andrew. I should have left long ago. It's just that the house at SG Manor wasn't ready before. Now it's time to move."Lydia had bought the house at SG Manor specifically for herself.Due to various reasons, she hadn't moved in. But after what happened, she felt that staying here was selfish.Lydia had spent a sleepless night reflecting. Since her return, she had unconsciously treated Andrew as family.When her father schemed against her, her ex-husband betrayed her, and she was all alone, Andrew's presence felt like the brother she had always yearned for.She indulged in this sense of "family," unaware of the harm it caused Andrew.Clenching her fists, Lydia's face turned even paler. How could she have been so
Ogden quickly followed suit. "Since you can't eat, let's have a good chat. Someone, clear these dishes and bring some desserts and drinks."The butler swiftly carried out the instructions, and soon the table was cleared of the food, replaced by plates of exquisite desserts set before Odelia."Odelia, let's talk!"This was the first time Nydia had spoken so seriously to Odelia since she moved into the Halsey house, making Odelia sit up straight unconsciously."Auntie, whatever you need to say, please just tell me directly. I'll definitely do my best."Nydia smiled. "You're a smart child; I don't need to say much. But you understand Lambert's situation. While we've all accepted you, Lambert's feelings are something you need to win over yourself. He has forgotten his past, which is the best and maybe the only chance for you!""I know!" Odelia nodded.She was well aware that her current position beside Lambert was sheer luck.If Lambert hadn't lost his memory, how could she have ever ente
However, what puzzled Lambert the most was that he felt almost nothing towards her.It was as if the woman lying on the bed shouldn't be the one in front of him.This strange sense of dissonance made Lambert sit gentlemanly on a nearby sofa, avoiding further glances at Odelia after that initial look.Odelia was furious.Here she was, lying on the bed looking sexy and alluring, and Lambert didn't even spare her a glance.He had instead sat on the sofa and turned on the television!Could the TV program be more attractive than her?Biting her lip in frustration, Odelia struggled to contain her anger.After a moment, she decided that if the mountain wouldn't come to her, she'd go to the mountain.She got off the bed and slowly approached Lambert, sitting beside him.Her pale fingers traced Lambert's skin, moving teasingly. "Lambert..."Odelia breathed softly into Lambert's ear, her voice low and sultry, her posture enticing. She wrapped her arms around his waist, finding his firm, toned b
“Are you really going to take down those bodyguards? Your legs are thinner than their arms. How can you fight them?”“Who said anything about fighting?” Wythe pouted. “Mom, you underestimate me. Violence is the most foolish way to solve things. We need to use our brains! Besides, I’ve come up with three different plans, A, B, and C. We’ll find a way!”Wythe’s little face was full of pride!Lydia felt her mood lift inexplicably. She reached out and ruffled Wythe’s hair. “Alright, little man, Mom is counting on you tomorrow. But for now, let’s go to bed so we’ll be in good spirits.”Wythe nodded vigorously, rubbing his head against Lydia’s shoulder, yawning. “Mom, I know! Will you sleep with me?”Lydia nodded at her son’s rare display of affection. She lay down with Wythe, watching his face that resembled Lambert’s so much, and slowly drifted to sleep.The next morning, Lydia woke up to find Wythe already up, holding a beach ball in one hand and a remote control airplane in the other, s
From Lara's words, Lydia gleaned some crucial information.First, these people were brought here by Downey and did not belong to the same modeling agency, so they were not very familiar with each other. This made Lydia feel quite relieved.Additionally, Lydia learned that they were here to entertain some wealthy businessmen and young heirs and would soon be taken to the main venue.She also heard that Lambert, the organizer, would be present there.With this new information, Lydia decided not to leave quietly but to follow the group, hoping it would be less conspicuous.With her mind made up, she felt much less anxious.Sure enough, it wasn't long before the flamboyant man named Downey approached them. "Listen up, when you meet those bosses, make sure you impress them. These people hold your future in their hands. If any of you plan to enter the entertainment industry, you'd better serve them well. They are your gods!"Downey's pep talk seemed to boost everyone's confidence.Those who
Ronald didn't pursue Lydia further. Knowing her name, he wasn't in a hurry.Since she was brought by Downey, he could easily find out more about her later.Putting Lydia aside for the moment, Ronald turned his attention to chatting with Lara.Meanwhile, Lambert left the party feeling irritable. He found such gatherings incredibly dull, but Odelia seemed to enjoy them immensely.Walking down the corridor, looking for a quiet place to smoke, he sensed someone following him at a distance.Lambert frowned slightly. Was it his imagination? Why would anyone be trailing him on this yacht?His eyes turned cold. Whether he had lost his memory or not, he wouldn't tolerate anyone plotting against him.He quickly turned a corner, then watched as a graceful figure followed suit.It was Lydia, who had been chasing after Lambert. She was now panting and searching anxiously for him. Lambert's frown deepened.He vaguely remembered this woman—she was supposedly the girlfriend of Sanctity Apparel Corpor
