Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 99



It had been a week since she had seen her mother, and Cheng Lydia sat at her mother’s bedside and hesitated to leave.

If she wasn’t worried about being chastised by the doctors there and delaying her treatment, she would really like to stay here with her mother for a longer time. After all, her mother’s days were dwindling, and after losing The Shen Family’s help, she didn’t even know how long she had left to live.

Auntie Nurse urged for the umpteenth time, “Ms Cheng, it’s time for us to go back.”

Cheng Lydia let go of her mother’s hand and whispered goodbye.

The nursing aunt then immediately walked in quickly and pushed her towards the door.

When she left the ward and passed the entrance of Yang June’s ward, Cheng Lydia unconsciously pressed the brake of her wheelchair and it stopped instantly. The nurse aunt was taken aback and asked suspiciously, “Ms Cheng what’s wrong with you?”

Cheng Lydia took a light breath and shook her head, “It’s nothing, let’s go.”

What’s wrong with her? The idea of going in to see Yang June?

She had hardly visited Yang June since the poisoning incident to avoid suspicion, and she shouldn’t have gone today. There was nothing more between her and Yang June than a rivalry, wasn’t there?

At the corner of the corridor, Cheng Lydia slammed the brakes on her wheelchair once more, and the carer’s aunt, who had a good temper, was worn down to the point of fury, and stiffened her lips and said unkindly, “What’s wrong with you again, Ms Cheng?”

“Please wait a moment.” Cheng Lydia finished sideways at the pair, her gaze returning to Shen Ron, who was just exiting the elevator directly in front of her.

Seeing him twice in the course of a day was quite a coincidence to say the least.

Shen Ron saw her too and knew without asking what she was doing here, his once brow furrowed slightly and he asked, “How can you run around?”

“I came to see my mother.” Cheng Lydia, still calm, looked askance at him and asked, “How did you end up with that woman?”

It was a question she’d wanted to ask just now, but he’d just left in such a hurry that she hadn’t had a chance to ask it.

She never mentioned Aunt Helen as a person to Shen Ron, who shouldn’t have known her.

Shen Ron, however, just flicked his lips and spat out mockingly, “What? Even the jealousy of a woman over half a century old?”

“Shen Ron, do you think I’d be jealous of any woman for you right now?” Cheng Lydia snapped back after her anger knotted.

“It would be best if you wouldn’t, and save me having to explain to you where every woman comes from.” Shen Ron tossed that off coldly and brushed past her.

And just as his body moved closer to hers, Cheng Lydia suddenly reached out and grabbed his large palm.

Shen Ron was stunned for a moment, his footsteps stumbling as he looked down at the top of her head.

Her fingers were slightly cool and slender and boneless, and for a moment there was the illusion that she would take his hand and weep bitterly to relieve the pain of these days of longing, that she would weep bitterly and ask him to forgive her.

But she didn’t, she just silently let go of his palm, stared up at him and said, “I just want to know who that woman was just now, and why you were with him.”

Shen Ron looked at her bland little face and gritted his teeth, “Don’t you want to know anything else besides that? You don’t want to know if I want to forgive you either? Do you want to move on with your life?”

“Isn’t it obvious? Do we need to ask?” Cheng Lydia asked rhetorically, and didn’t his attitude reveal everything?

“Since you’re so smart, there’s no need to ask me any questions.” Throwing that down with a sneer, Shen Ron strides away.

On their way to the first floor, the two nursing aunties from time to time looked at Cheng Lydia with probing eyes, and the older one eventually couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked suspiciously, “So that’s Ms Cheng’s lover just now, huh?”

Cheng Lydia gazed calmly out the window and gave a soft ‘hmm’.

The aunts whispered in an uproar, “So Mr. Gu isn’t your lover, huh? Mr. Gu was so nice to you, we thought it was …”

The two aunties looked at each other and it was the aunt who said, “But I think Mr. Gu is also a very nice person, much better than that cold-faced gentleman who treated Ms Cheng just now, how come Ms Cheng didn’t choose Mr. Gu? So strange.”

Cheng Lydia finally moved and twisted her head to look at the two older women, smiling lowly, “Do you also think I should choose Mr. Gu?”

“Of course, a woman should marry, and if she cannot marry a man of two loves, then marry the man who loves her, and never marry the man she loves.”

Marrying a man who loves you, yes! If you could marry a man who loved you very much, how would you suffer misunderstandings again and again?

It’s just that her marriage was supposed to be a stake-out, and it’s not about whether you love me or I love you.

Cheng Lydia went back to the sixth floor to look up the diary from the day of the accident to find out how the patients were doing that day and found that there had been no relapse at all and that every patient was stable and doing well that day.

It seems the phone call was fake, the patient needed emergency treatment was also fake, and the brakes that wouldn’t stop being applied no matter how … it turned out to be all a man-made conspiracy trick again.

It’s Ho Gina, isn’t it? Who else would want to kill her so badly?

Yet now that the car was burned, who else would believe she was being persecuted but her?NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

After a month of recuperation, Cheng Lydia’s wound has largely recovered and has not affected her daily life much, except for some imbalance when she walks.

The cut on her forehead had several stitches and scarring was inevitable, and she stood in front of the mirror and brushed her bangs down a few strands to hide the bruises.

The housekeeper had already called this morning to rush her to pick up her mother from the hospital, and she wasn’t surprised at the old lady’s ruthlessness, but was surprised at Shen Ron’s indifference.

The man who was occasionally as gentle as water in front of her, promising to never leave her for the rest of her life, had not only never shown up in the past month, but had not even given a sign on the day she was discharged from the hospital. With such indifference, she did not expect him to help her persuade the old lady to take in her mother.

To her surprise, Gu William, who hadn’t been seen for a month, showed up to pick her up and discharge her.

“Don’t worry, I’m here.” He stroked her head like an elder, smiling warmly and genially.

Cheng Lydia’s eyes instantly moistened as her teardrop was touched.

She kept her head down, daring him to see her weakness, and only when she had fully adjusted did she lift her gaze to look directly at him, “Can you really help me with anything?”

“Yes.”

“What about lending me a million?”

Gu William froze for a moment, sizing her up suspiciously.

He didn’t expect her to make this request, she who never wanted anything to do with him, would ask to borrow money from him? And it was a million dollars.

“Is that too much? That’s okay, I …”

“No.” Gu William interrupted her with a shake of his head.

A million was nothing to him at all, what he was wondering was what she wanted the million for, he spat out the doubt in his mind, “I just want to know what you want the million for and what exactly you’re having trouble with.”

Cheng Lydia took a light breath and smiled bitterly, “You don’t know yet, do you, that my marriage to Shen Ron is most likely about to end, and I married him for money, to help prepare my mother for surgery.”

A million would be enough to take care of her mother, though it was inappropriate, but right now she had no one else to turn to but Gu William.

Gu William pondered for a moment and said, “A million I can give you, but has it … really come to this between you and Shen Ron? Are you sure?”

It wasn’t that he hadn’t been to the hospital over the month, it was just that every time he came it was during her lunch break, and for him a glance from afar was enough.

He knew Shen Ron still hadn’t shown up, and it seemed his words to him that night were useless; it seemed he had really chosen second and signed the divorce papers.

“The situation was forced upon me, I had no choice.”

His large grip took her small shoulders and he gazed at her with a straight face and said, “I can help you out of any difficulty if you say you want to remain with him.”

“No, he and I were originally only in a monetary relationship, no love.” She gave him a small smile, “Thank you, a million dollars I may take a lifetime to pay back, please give me time.”

“I will give you time.” Gu William looked at her and thought to himself, Cheng Lydia, if you do divorce Shen Ron, I will make you my bride in the shortest possible time!

At that point, she wouldn’t even need to pay back 10 million, let alone a million.
