While all this unfolded, Wythe had already been whisked away by Nydia and Odgen for comfort.In their eyes, with a mother who would resort to physical punishment regardless of the situation, Wythe must have endured a lot over the years.Even though Wythe earnestly admitted that today was indeed his fault for leaving his mom without saying anything, causing her to worry and leading to her resorting to physical discipline, they couldn't accept his explanation!Lydia's head was still spinning, and she felt dazed by the current situation. Why did a simple dinner end up unexpectedly leading to the discovery of Wythe's biological father?Everything that happened six years ago replayed like a movie in Lydia's mind, making her face even paler, her steps somewhat unsteady.Seeing her expression, Lambert quickly reached out and pulled her into his arms. "Lydia, I'm so happy! I never expected you to be Jamie’s mother! It must be fate!"For the first time, Lambert sincerely thanked the heavens, n
Over the next two days, Lambert truly didn't contact Lydia again, and Lydia focused all her energy on work.However, when she returned home, she would hear Wythe mentioning a few words about his dad calling again.After carefully collecting her thoughts, Lydia finally started to make sense of things a bit.Regardless of whether Lambert was Wythe's biological father or not, she had developed feelings for this man. Or perhaps it should be said that, upon knowing he was Wythe's father, she felt joy and gratitude in her heart. After all, he was such an outstanding man.But at that time, the fear of losing Wythe suppressed the few feelings of joy in her heart, leaving her in extreme confusion. Moreover, Lydia felt that the events of six years ago were ambiguous in terms of who was right and who was wrong.Even if Lambert had stayed that day, perhaps she wouldn't necessarily have ended up with him, and those past hurts would still have occurred. If that's the case, why couldn't she leave be
Ron felt he had turned the tide and was extremely pleased with himself. So what if Lydia inherited the G Group now?She would still be a woman scorned by many, wouldn't she? The media was always the best tool.Just thinking about his performance on TV not long ago, he himself felt deeply emotional.A cold gleam flashed beneath his gold-rimmed glasses.Ron refused to believe it. If he could corner Lydia six years ago, how could she still have him under control six years later? Hmph!After parking the car in the underground garage, Ron checked the time.As a token of appreciation for the help from the director earlier, he had made a dinner appointment with him today.Stepping out of the car, Ron straightened his clothes and walked confidently towards the exit of the parking lot.Suddenly, several burly men got out of a Hummer, each one tall and muscular with fierce expressions.Ron glanced at them and quickened his pace. These guys looked like trouble, and he didn't want any part of it.
Emotional interviews could quickly be brought to an end, with no further broadcasts, and even the host apologizing for their words – all thanks to Lambert.Although this left him owing his friend Lennon a favor, hearing from Wythe's call that Lydia's mood had improved greatly also brought him a sense of satisfaction.As for Lydia, though unaware of all this, she didn't continue to focus her energy on the scoundrel Ron.As for remarriage, Lydia expressed complete indifference, stating she could just as well sue Ron for bigamy!Meanwhile, Lambert hadn't called during this time, leaving Lydia feeling unsettled. Despite her earlier request for no contact, she couldn't help but secretly resent his absence.Wythe noticed Lydia's mixed feelings and thus, on the same day, when he and Lambert were video calling, he deliberately called Lydia over.Seeing Lambert's dazzling dark eyes on the screen, Lydia couldn't help but blush. Suddenly, all those little bumps in their relationship seemed to va
Lydia's gaze swept over the recently completed sample clothes and the precious design sketches, a hint of heartache flickering in her eyes, but anger soon replaced it.Seeing Lydia appear, the madness in Maggie's eyes gradually subsided a bit. "You finally decided to show up! I'm asking you, did you arrange for someone to hurt Ron? I know you're wealthy and powerful now, but don't forget, all of this was supposed to be ours!"Lydia looked at the hysterical Maggie, her angry gaze gradually cooling into pity.She slowly curved her lips into a smirk. "Maggie, it seems it's you who hasn't figured things out! Last week, I officially acquired ownership of the G Group. Moreover, these things were all left to me by my mother. They have nothing to do with you!""Bah! Let's not talk about property matters. How do you explain Ron's injury?" Maggie knew the property issue was settled, so she moved on to the matter of Ron being hurt.Lydia frowned. "What happened to Ron?""Don't play dumb with me!
Lydia dialed Maggie's number first. Maggie sounded startled when she answered, then her tone turned sour. "Why are you calling me?""It's nothing. I just wanted to thank you for the compensation. Harlan has already given the money. Since that's settled, those crazy videos I have of you are useless now. So, I've decided to give them back to you." Lydia's tone remained calm."You're being so generous?" Maggie frowned, clearly not believing Lydia's words."Whether you believe it or not is up to you. Since I'm short on time, you better make up your mind quickly. Today at 1 PM, Queen Hotel, second floor. Whether you come or not is your choice." Lydia hung up the phone, feeling confident that Maggie would show up. Even if it wasn't for the videos, she would come to see what Lydia was up to.Indeed, Lydia's guess was correct. Maggie did plan to check the situation. Moreover, she intended to use this incident to tarnish Lydia's reputation, portraying her as a seemingly innocent but internally
Maggie's footsteps staggered. Eight years of love couldn't compare to Lydia?Or perhaps, it couldn't compare to Lydia's position in the G Corporation! She couldn't bear to listen anymore!Especially when Ron blamed her for all the things they did to Lydia back then, Maggie felt like her heart was plunged into an ice cellar, trembling with cold!This man! This man she had been with for eight years, investing her youth and emotions in, was he really speaking ill of her like this?Moreover, for the sake of gaining Lydia's forgiveness, he wanted to divorce her?Maggie's eyes turned red, flames of anger almost engulfing her whole being. She looked squarely at Lydia.It was all because of this woman! It was because of this woman that Ron would say such things!Maggie gritted her teeth and took a step forward. "Lydia! You wicked woman! Go to hell!"As she spoke, she picked up the coffee cup from the table and hurled it towards Lydia.Fortunately, Lydia was prepared. She quickly got up and av
In the hospital room, permeated by the smell of disinfectant, Maggie lay pale on the bed.Outside, Ron sat on a bench, several cigarette butts scattered at his feet.He held another cigarette in his hand, smoke curling around him, darkening his genteel face, giving it a somber air.His clothes bore traces of blood, and his hair was disheveled from the earlier press scrum, making him look disheveled.After a moment, hurried footsteps approached, and Harlan rushed with Mildred towards the direction of the ward.Seeing Ron sitting there, Mildred hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Where's Maggie?"Ron stubbed out his cigarette. "She's inside.""What exactly happened?" Mildred was on the verge of breaking down.Ron paused. "They said she had a miscarriage.""What?" Mildred's eyes widened, and she stepped forward, grabbing Ron's collar. "What are you saying? When did Maggie get pregnant? How could she suddenly have a miscarriage? Did you do this?"Why were they both present when things went
