Ben couldn't figure out how the secret he had hidden for so many years was suddenly exposed.

As soon as he got through the swarm of reporters and into the car, the first thing he did was call his assistant, Marvin. Marvin, on the other end, was hesitant and stammering, but his message was clear enough—he told Ben to check the internet himself.

Ben unlocked his phone and discovered that an indecent video of him and Janet had become the top trending topic. Simultaneously, the paternity test results between him and Sibyl were also prominently posted online.

Every major website was reporting on the scandal.

Ben's eyes reddened from reading the reports over and over again. The scandal had completely engulfed him, catching him off guard!

Because Ben had previously maintained such a successful image as a good man, the sudden exposure of such a scandal—especially with his lover being his sister-in-law—disgusted the public.

Ben was ruined.

The company he had just founded couldn't operate due t

    The day of the meeting finally arrived. Early in the morning, Lydia was already up. When Wythe emerged from his small room, fully dressed, he was surprised to see his mother preparing breakfast.Recently, Lydia had been sleeping a lot and rarely woke up before a certain time. Wythe had learned from Andrew that his mother was pregnant, and naturally assumed that the baby, whether it would be a brother or sister, was Uncle Fraine's child. Because of this, Wythe had somewhat given up on the idea of his parents getting back together—especially after he called Lambert, and Lambert hadn't answered. Wythe felt deeply hurt by this."Mom, why are you up so early today?" Wythe asked."Oh, I'm going out with your Uncle Fraine later. Eat your breakfast and head to school, okay?" Lydia responded, her voice gentle.Wythe nodded obediently. Not long after, Andrew came out of his room, his expression a little serious. Seeing Lydia busy in the kitchen, his worry deepened."Lydia, didn't I tell you not

    "Boss, here's the contract from earlier. Is there anything you'd like me to note? If not, I'll go ahead and file it," Ivan's voice came from behind Lambert.Lambert remained silent for a moment before speaking. "Do you think I made a mistake?"Ivan was caught off guard, unsure how to respond. Just as he was contemplating an answer, Lambert cut him off. "File the documents," he said.Ivan nodded, taking the papers and leaving the office. For some reason, as he glanced back at Lambert's figure, a deep sense of loneliness seemed to linger in the air.Lambert took a deep breath. From this point forward, he and Lydia were officially done.Meanwhile, Lydia had just gotten into the car after leaving Universal Conglomerate, her expression dazed. Andrew, on the other hand, seemed quite happy. "Lydia, now that you've gotten the shares back, why don't we go celebrate? We can pick up Mom, Dad, and Wythe on the way.""You decide. I'm fine with anything," Lydia forced a smile. After all, she had ac

    Before Lydia could say anything, Verna grabbed her arm. "Of course I know her! Lydia's designs are amazing—you have no idea! I love them!"Zebulon found his daughter's enthusiasm a bit strange but dismissed it, thinking she must really like Lydia to act so warmly."Is that so? That's wonderful. Verna, I'll leave Thera and Lydia in your hands. Make sure to take good care of them for me."Verna stuck out her tongue playfully. "I know, I know, I'm not a little kid!"Zebulon affectionately patted her head with a doting smile. "Alright, alright, you'll always be a child in my eyes. You all chat; I'll take Winston to meet some old friends."After all, he had to pave the way for the next generation. For his daughter's sake, even if he didn't think much of Winston, he still had to bring him along.Winston gave them a nod and then followed Zebulon out. As soon as they left, Verna threw her arm around Lydia's shoulders like they were old friends and whispered into her ear, "Lydia, come with me.

    So, Lambert would rather find a fake girlfriend to deceive me than be with me? What is he so afraid of? Does he think I would cling to him and refuse to let go?Verna noticed Lydia's changing expression—one that bore no trace of happiness—and grew worried. Why did Lydia seem even more upset than before the explanation? This couldn't get back to Lambert, or he might blame her.Seeing Verna's concerned look, Lydia forced a kind smile. "Verna, thank you for telling me the truth."Verna quickly waved her hand. "It's nothing! Honestly, watching you two have a misunderstanding because of me made me feel terrible. I'm just glad it's cleared up now. Lambert really does care about you. When you were at the company, he used to sneakily pull up surveillance footage just to watch you. He'd watch for the whole day, like some kind of love-struck fool! Ivan and I thought it was hilarious!"Lydia was surprised to hear this from Verna but didn't agree with her assumption that Lambert loved her. "Verna

    Lydia glanced at him, stepped out of the room, and walked to the poolside before revealing what had happened — that someone had pushed her from behind. She then noticed Lambert's cold gaze fixed on Verna."What does your family make of this?" he asked, his voice icy.Verna felt a sudden chill and immediately responded, "Don't worry, Lambert. We will definitely get to the bottom of this terrible incident. It happened in our house, so we'll surely find some clues! Lydia, don't worry. We'll help you get justice!""Justice might be too much to ask for," Lydia said calmly. "I just want to know who was behind this."Verna thought for a moment. "How about this? Lydia, you stay here and rest. I'll go check the surveillance footage — luckily, there are cameras in the garden area.""That would be helpful. Thank you," Lydia said with a nod."It's no trouble at all! As long as I can help. If anything had happened to you, I'd never forgive myself!""You're being too polite, Verna. This has nothing

    "No way! Wythe is mine! Back then, I left with nothing in order to live with Wythe."Lambert gave her an extremely sarcastic look. "Really? Do you mean that as long as I pay a certain price, you can give Wythe back to me? Why don't you tell me what kind of price it is? Money is not a problem!"Lydia widened her eyes. She didn't know how her words could be misinterpreted like this? No matter how much money Lambert offered, she would not give up Wythe.And at this moment, Lydia also confirmed one thing. She must not tell that the child in her belly is actually Lambert's. Otherwise, Lambert might take this child away as well.Thinking of this, Lydia made up her mind. When she looked at Lambert again, her gaze became colder. "Lambert, in your eyes, can money buy everything? But unfortunately, I am not short of money. To put it bluntly, even if I am short of money, I will not sell Wythe to you! What do you think Wythe is? Goods?""Why be so indignant? Anyway, you already have a second chil

    Lydia didn't refuse anymore. At this point, continuing to refuse would seem a bit pretentious."Then thank you very much!"After that, Lydia didn't stay any longer and left with Thera. When they left, Lambert seemed to have already left in advance.When sitting in the car, Thera finally opened her mouth and asked, "Lydia, what's going on between you and Lambert? Didn't you get pregnant again?"Upon hearing this, Lydia's expression darkened. "This matter is complicated. Thera, you know my relationship with Andrew now, right?"Thera glanced at her. "No way? Could it be that the child is Andrew's?""How could it be? Thera, why do you think so too?" Lydia blushed, feeling both ashamed and annoyed!"Come on, normal people would think so, right? Think about it. You are now Andrew's fiancée and live with him. And you are pregnant again. Saying it's not his child, who would believe it?"Lydia's expression changed again and again after hearing this. "But this child is really not Andrew's. I re

    She didn't expect that the other party would even do something like covering up a criminal just to oppose her. It was really using every means possible! And it also completely cooled her heart."Lydia, don't be too pessimistic. I think Lambert is not that kind of person. He might have some other purpose for doing this.""Forget it, Thera. I don't want to deceive myself anymore. I once had many expectations for him, but now, I don't have any expectations anymore."Seeing that persuasion was useless, Thera could only frown. Forget it. Let's think about this matter in the long run. Deal with the immediate matter properly first.But Lydia no longer had the heart to listen. She suddenly felt very tired, tired from the heart to the body. It seemed that no matter how hard she tried, it was just a joke.Once she thought she could change this strange situation, but reality always caught people off guard! Helplessly, she wanted to escape.

    "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. When she found out his trip was delayed, everything around her began to irritate her. It was as though a cloud of anger clogged her heart, but she couldn't find a way to let it ou
