Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

At this point Lim Toby stood outside the landing with his back to her, unmoving.

It wasn’t until he heard footsteps that he turned around languidly, and a quick flash of surprise crossed his face at the sight of Cheng Lydia, followed by a cold look at her.

It was such a cool day, yet the corners of his forehead were covered in a fine bead of sweat that looked crystal clear in the sunlight.

Seeing Cheng Lydia’s intention to step out of the landing, Lim Toby frowned slightly and ordered unpleasantly, “Stand back.”Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Cheng Lydia, who was afraid of heights, did stand still and surveyed him with a sneer, “Aren’t you sick of me? Why are you worried about my safety?”

“This is The Lim Family, and I’ll be the only one taking full responsibility if you fall.”

So that’s why he won’t let her out of the landing, and sure enough, it’s always himself he’s thinking of!

“Lim Toby, is your heart made of stone?” She laughed, a bittersweet laugh.

Lim Toby shrugged indifferently.

“Now that we’re divorced, can you tell me what it is that makes you hate me so much?” Cheng Lydia stared at him, even if she died, she would have to die to understand, wouldn’t she?

Lim Toby, however, just turned away, his back to her and didn’t answer.

Cheng Lydia blinked away the mist of tears in her eyes and tried hard not to cry, but her words came out in a controlled choke: “Remember the first time we met? I didn’t know who I was, I didn’t have any money, and I was in the hospital like a fly on the wall begging the doctors to save my mom’s life, but the heartless doctors insisted on throwing us out of the hospital. Then you appeared and came like a savior, pulling out a gold card from your wallet and smashing it in the doctor’s face to rebuke her for not having a conscience. You were the one who kept my mother alive, and you were the one who took me home. Later you told me that you were touched by my filial piety, that you fell in love with me at first sight, and that you were willing to take care of me for the rest of my life. You asked me to marry you, right here in this glass room, and I said yes. You ordered me a wedding dress in France that was unique in the world, you said our honeymoon must travel the world, we prepared for the wedding with joy and waited for it with great anticipation. At the wedding, we made our vows before God, we exchanged rings, and we received the blessings of our friends and family. Up until that night, I felt like the happiest girl in the world. But on our wedding night, you didn’t come home all night, and the next day I found out from Lim Edith that you had spent the night in a hotel with another woman. I knew Lim Edith didn’t like me, so I chose to trust you, but Feng Ann, the woman, still showed up …”

Cheng Lydia ran the back of her hand over a handful of tears on her face, unable to control her sobs more and more, “What the hell is this about? What the hell changed you? Lim Toby, can you tell me?”

Lim Toby did not reply, no matter how much she pleaded.

The grains of sweat at the corners of his forehead were increasing, and his fingers gripping the guardrail tightened little by little, his knuckles whitening, and only after a long time did he spit out a faint, “Have you said enough? If you’ve said enough, please go back.”

Cheng Lydia lifted her hand once again to rub a handful of tears from her face and nodded, exasperated, “Lim Toby, you’re tough enough!”

With that, she walked away, walking without looking back.

Everything that needed to be said and done had been said and done, and she could never find a reason to turn back.

As of today, she has nothing more to do with Lim Toby!

While stepping into the stair room, Cheng Lydia met Feng Ann who was walking towards the rooftop, and the two looked at each other without anyone saying anything.

Feng Ann changed from her usual haughty and mean-spirited look, and the look she gave her even penetrated with sympathy.

Cheng Lydia laughed bitterly in her heart, signing the divorce papers, she was no longer any threat or obstacle to Feng Ann, and she was no longer a love rival, so it was no wonder that people didn’t even bother to show their ridicule.

Hearing Cheng Lydia’s footsteps fading away, Lim Toby finally couldn’t support himself as his body lurched and slowly collapsed backwards.

“Toby …” Feng Ann walked out of the rooftop just in time to see Lim Toby collapsed on the ground, she rushed up with a startled cry and crouched down beside him shaking him furiously, “Toby, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me!”

The day after the divorce, Cheng Lydia went to work at the hospital before she had recovered from her injuries.

She arrived at the hospital early, as usual, to help Cheng Lena scrub and change, moving with skill and gentle rubbing.

“Mom, from now on it will be just the two of us again.” She held Cheng Lena’s dry, thin palm and gazed at her quiet, sleeping face, her tone bitter, “You must live well.”

Her mother was the only family she had left in the world, so no matter how much people advised her, no matter how hard it was, she would not give up.

There was home when there are loved ones, no matter how far away, healthy or not, and that’s how she’s always felt.

To avoid Doctor Huang, she rushed to leave her mother’s ward before her shift was up.

Standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, Cheng Lydia looked at her slightly haggard self in the mirror and could hardly believe that she had survived after all the suffering she had gone through.

She unscrewed the faucet and washed her face with fresh water and straightened her hair, and she finally looked a little more refreshed in the mirror.

Just after she returned to the office, Cheng Lydia saw Doctor Song coming from the ward area with an indignant look on her face. She wants to see the attending doctor.”

This kind of thing happens occasionally in hospitals, so Cheng Lydia wasn’t surprised or flustered.

“Okay, I’ll be right over.” She lifted a hand and tapped Doctor Song on the shoulder, “Go get my condition card for me.”

Ward 609 was at the end of the corridor, and when Cheng Lydia walked to the door of the ward, Mrs. Shen and Zhang Jane were sitting on the bed talking and laughing, sharing the meat buns in the fresh box, and Mrs. Shen said with a smile, “I didn’t expect the meat buns from this roadside stall to be better than the ones at home, so I’ll just buy them at his house from now on. ”

“Old lady, the young master will definitely scold me again when he finds out you eat at the roadside stall, I was fined three days’ wages the last time you were caught eating KFC.”

“Don’t worry about it, I’ll pay you back three times over at the end of the month.”

“It’s not the money, it’s the fact that the young master is scary when he gets angry.”

“Is that so? Why don’t I think so?”

“Old lady, that’s because you’re his grandmother.” Zhang Jane glanced at the smiling Old Mrs. Shen and secretly cried out.

It’s quite a call to be impatient at times when you have such a childlike old lady.

Cheng Lydia raised her hand and knocked on the door, and the duo in the ward hurriedly threw the buns in their hands back into the box and scrambled back to their respective places.

As it was, Cheng Lydia pushed the door and saw the image of a small, shabby old woman sitting expressionlessly in a wheelchair, another slightly younger woman standing next to the wheelchair with a snotty nose and a tear: “Mom … you just listen to the doctor’s advice, go for a full body checkup first You have fainted three times a morning, you can not delay ah, you do not worry, the money I will go to borrow from relatives and friends.”

“Borrow, didn’t you already call all over the phone when you came? I didn’t borrow a dime, and I spent more than twenty dollars on phone bills for nothing.” The old lady had a look of no good.

“Who are you?” The old woman turned her gaze to Cheng Lydia.

Cheng Lydia busily pointed to her work tag, “Hello, my name is Cheng Lydia, I’m the attending doctor here, may I ask where you’re not feeling well?”

Zhang Jane approached Cheng Lydia and pleaded with a sobbing voice: “Doctor Cheng, the old lady, she doesn’t know what’s wrong with her, she’s been convulsing and fainting three times this morning, she originally went to another hospital, but she was booted out because she didn’t have the money, you must save her.”

“But the hospital really has a rule that you pay first and then see the doctor.” Doctor Song, who then walked in, said.

“But we really don’t have any money after paying the hospital fees.” Zhang Jane just finished speaking and immediately shouted anxiously, “Mom … Mom what’s wrong with you? Mom you do not scare me ah!”

The old woman in the wheelchair was seen to start convulsing again, her limbs stirring straight and her eyes rolling white.

Cheng Lydia was busy saying, “Quick, help get to the bed.”

Everyone manhandled the old lady to the bed, and Cheng Lydia leaned over and began to give her emergency treatment.

The old lady did pass out again.

Cheng Lydia arranged for the old lady to be given first aid while instructing Doctor Song, “Doctor Song, take the family to get the checklist first and sign my name.”

Doctor Song was surprised and took Cheng Lydia’s arm to remind her, “Doctor Cheng, the hospital will bill you for the medical expenses.”

“Just do as I say.”

“But … your mom still owes tens of thousands of dollars on her medical bills.”

“People’s lives are at stake, save them first, go.”

“Oh.” Doctor Song went off with a look of impatience.

Dr. Cheng Lydia was helping to push the mobile bed to the emergency room as she was waiting for the other medical staff to prepare. Do we need to cut open the stomach or something?”

If the doctor always failed to check the condition and went down with a knife to the stomach, then wouldn’t her old lady be miserable?

Cheng Lydia didn’t even look back: “Don’t worry aunty, I’ll get your signature before I have to operate.”

When this statement was made, Zhang Jane instantly froze in place.

Cheng Lydia instructed a nurse, “Open the emergency room door a little further to the side.”

The mobile bed was the latest generation, with flexible wheels and assisted steering at the foot of the bed. The mobile bed, which should slide easily into the emergency room, could not be pushed past the emergency room door.

Cheng Lydia thought the mobile bed was stuck somewhere and looked down only to find that it was the old lady’s hand that was wrenching the door prongs in a death grip.

“That … I’m fine.” Mrs. Shen sat up from the bed with a huff.

Just kidding, she’s still waiting to plan the wedding for her grandson, so if she did get a surgery, she would be in bed for at least half a month.
