Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 20



In the afternoon Shen Ron did pull up to the taxi stand near Shen Mansion and waited for her, Cheng Lydia switched from Tom’s car to his and the car started and drove slowly towards Shen Mansion.

Cheng Lydia suddenly remembered the young boy she had seen at another hospital today who looked a bit like Shen Ron, twisted her head to survey him and asked, “What were you doing at the BoD hospital today?”

Shen Ron craned his head and swept her up, saying blandly, “Talking about acquisitions.”

Cheng Lydia ‘Oh’ and Shen Ron asked, “What? Got a problem?”

“Nope.” Cheng Lydia shook her head.

“You’re quite a cold-blooded woman.” Shen Ron tapped his fingertips on the steering wheel and snickered mockingly, “Your ex-husband looked at you with such affection and you didn’t even give him a straight look.”

Cheng Lydia threw him a bored look and didn’t bother to pay attention to him.

Lim Toby is looking at her with affection? His young master Shen’s eyes are blinded by lard, right?

The car had pulled into Shen Mansion and no one was speaking.

From a distance, Cheng Lydia could see a bright red Ferrari parked in front of the main building of Shen Mansion, and several maids were carefully removing the plastic film from the car.

Shen Ron’s car pulled up steadily to the left of the sports car, and two servants immediately greeted them and opened the door for the two of them, “Young master, young lady is back.”

“Thanks.” Cheng Lydia nodded at the pair before striding off towards the house, not giving the Ferrari at her side more than a glance.

With as much money as The Shen Family has, it’s not uncommon for them to buy a new car back once in a while.

“Wait a minute.” Shen Ron suddenly took her by the wrist.

Cheng Lydia froze and swept her head down to his large palm clasping her wrist. Shen Ron’s palm moved up and wrapped around her shoulder, gesturing with his jaw to the sports car, “Like it? It’s for you.”

“For me?” Cheng Lydia looked at the car in surprise, then at his smiling face.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Well, in the future you can travel in your own car like Belle, it’s a little easier.”

“I don’t actually need a car.”

“It’s okay, if you want to drive it, you can leave it in the garage if you don’t.” Shen Ron said softly.

“And … the car is too expensive and too inviting.”

“I said it’s okay …” The tenderness on someone’s face was almost untenable, stiffening the corners of his mouth and squeezing the words out of his teeth without moving.

Cheng Lydia heard his impatience and was about to say that she had her own connections when the old lady’s voice suddenly came from inside the house, “Lydia, since Ron is willing to give you the car, you should accept it graciously.”

The old lady smiled as she came out of the house and swept a glance at the Ferrari sports car, “It’s just a car, whatever you want Ron will give you later.”

“Ron, right?” The old woman turned to Shen Ron.

“OF COURSE,” Shen Ron nodded, continuing to smile.

“That … is appreciated.” Cheng Lydia quirked her head and smiled at Shen Ron.

Since the old lady had opened her mouth, it would be a bit insensitive to resist, so she had no choice but to accept.

“What a thank you from two couples, Lydia, come, stay with Grandma for a while.” The old woman waved at Cheng Lydia, who stepped forward and took her outstretched arm, walking with her towards the house.

“Grandma, I’m going to go upstairs and change my clothes.” She let go of the old woman’s arm.

“Okay, go ahead.”

Cheng Lydia walked towards the second floor, followed by Shen Ron’s steady footsteps, the two walked into the bedroom one after the other, Cheng Lydia watched the door panel being closed before sweeping her gaze to Shen Ron with a mocking look, “It’s just an act, no need to spend so much money to buy me a car.”

“Do you think I want to?” Shen Ron gave her an annoyed look out of the corner of his eye, took off the trench coat he was wearing and turned into the dressing room.

When the old lady asked him to bring the Ferrari back to Cheng Lydia at noon, he was so angry he could barely catch his breath, but he had to bite the bullet and agree to do it for the sake of the greater good.

This night, Shen Ron never set foot in the bedroom except to change his clothes, so he must have gone to sleep in the guest room again.

The sheets have been replaced with new ones, still in the light grey set, a color Cheng Lydia hates.

Without Shen Ron, Cheng Lydia slept more soundly, almost until dawn.

The next day she test drove the Ferrari, attracting a lot of car lovers on the way, driving such a car worth ten million to work, she was worried that it would again attract the side-eye and comments of colleagues, and finally simply lock the car in front of a large shopping mall near the hospital.

Today, I was supposed to go to BoU to continue to discuss the treatment plan for Shen Kerwin’s child, but just before I left, I received a call from BoU informing them that Shen Kerwin’s guardians had discharged the child from the hospital.

During lunch, Cheng Lydia suddenly received a short text message from an unknown number: Honey I’m back, see you at the usual place!

Signed Chung Grace.

Cheng Lydia’s eyes warmed at the sight of the name.

In this cold world, Chung Grace is a light of fire, a warmth around her.

She quickly returned the two words, Okay.

After her afternoon shift, Cheng Lydia couldn’t wait to get out of the hospital and head to the mall parking ramp to drive out the Ferrari.

The old place Chung Grace is talking about is a cafe called Greenhouse in the east of town, because a friend of Chung Grace owns it and they used to hang out there for free food and drinks when they had nothing else to do.

Cheng Lydia hasn’t been there since Chung Grace left six months ago to further her studies abroad.

Cheng Lydia rarely drives, and with the height and vision of a sports car, she struggles to walk on roads with traffic like this in the off-hours rush.

Yet despite her best efforts, she ended up crashing into a white Bugatti sports car in front of her in a negligent and careless attempt near Green Hen.

The two cars kissed with a muffled ‘bang’ and Cheng Lydia was dumb on the spot in the driver’s seat.

Luckily, they weren’t going too fast and Cheng Lydia happened to be wearing her seatbelt, so she wasn’t hurt except for the shock.

Soon after, a stylishly dressed young woman stepped out of the Bugatti’s passenger compartment. The woman first scanned down at the rear lights, which had been cracked at the rear of the car, and then came over with an annoyed look on her face and tapped on Cheng Lydia’s window.

Cheng Lydia came back to her senses, busily ripped off her seatbelt and pushed out of the car, bending over with a guilty look on her face, and said to the young woman, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to do that, I’ll pay …”

“You’ll pay for it? Can you afford to pay for this shitty car of yours?” The woman was furious, her eyes red and swollen, her face already confused like a palette of makeup.

Apparently, the woman had just been crying.

In a bad mood? No wonder you’re so fired up.

“I’ll pay whatever is due, I’m really sorry.” Cheng Lydia scanned the already long line of cars in the back and pulled out her phone, “Call the police first, go legal and insurance.”

Cheng Lydia had just dialed the number and put the phone to her ear when suddenly her palm was empty and the phone was jerked away.

She turned her head quickly to find a man walking up beside her at some point, who looked down and cut the call on her phone before tossing it back to her.

Without giving Cheng Lydia a chance to speak, he walked up to the young woman again, threw the car keys in his hand into her arms, and said without expression, “Take the car to the 4S shop, hang it on my account, and contact Nan if you have any problems.”

“William, I said I don’t want a Bugatti, and I don’t want to break up with you …” The anger on the woman’s face was extinguished and replaced with a touch of resignation and eagerness, and tears slipped out of her eyes in an instant: “William, I believe you still love me, otherwise you wouldn’t have spent the night at my place last night would you, please don’t mention breaking up with me …”

“Don’t make me repeat myself a second time.” The man’s handsome brow furrowed lightly, showing a look of impatience.

With tears in her eyes, the woman watched him for a long time before reluctantly stepping forward to drive the Bugatti away.

After the woman was gone, the man flicked a finger at the grease and tear stains on his shoulder and stepped off his long, slender legs in the direction of the sidewalk.

“Sir …” Cheng Lydia stared at his back with her mouth open.

The man stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her with a cold look, “What? Want me to pay you back?”

“No, it’s not.” Cheng Lydia was busy shaking her head, in fact she was going to ask him if things were just going to wrap up without her having to pay for it?

It was only after watching the man’s figure walk away that Cheng Lydia finally believed that things were really settled and that the other party did not ask her to pay.

Although the collision was not serious, but such an expensive car, if she really want to pay for it will not be a small amount, but fortunately the other party did not ask her to pay.

So as not to impede traffic, Cheng Lydia drove the car to the entrance of the coffee before going to check the front end for bumps. Like the Bugatti, only one side of the headlight had been smashed.

Cheng Lydia was still debating whether to take the car directly to the 4S shop for repair or to drive it back to The Shen Family for Tom to deal with, but on second thought, she had no vehicle information at all, let alone knowing who the owner was, so she had to leave it to Tom.

“Darling, you’re just now arriving, are you thinking of me or not?” A familiar voice came from behind her, and Cheng Lydia turned her head to see a delighted Chung Grace swooping towards her like a colorful butterfly, Cheng Lydia opened her arms with a smile and caught her steadily.

“Who says I don’t miss you.” Cheng Lydia scanned the smashed headlights, “Just had a little accident on the road or I’d be there sooner.”

“Wow, this is your car?” Chung Grace then noticed the red Ferrari behind Cheng Lydia that hadn’t had time to close the door, pivoted Cheng Lydia to the side, bent down and surveyed the car with an amazed face, mouthing the words, “When did Lim Toby become so good to you? Such an expensive car …”

As she rounded the back of the car she suddenly looked up at Cheng Lydia, “But it’s a four year old model, why not let him get the newest one?”

Cheng Lydia scanned the car, was it a four year old model? She never really knew about cars. She didn’t care if it was a new model or not, but it was a car she could drive anyway.

“But being willing to spend that kind of money to give you a car is already considered progress on Lim Toby’s part.” Chung Grace added.

Lim Toby, Chung Grace is a mouthful of Lim Toby.

Cheng Lydia feels guilty that so much has happened these days that she hasn’t had a chance to tell her she’s divorced and remarried Lim Toby.

“It’s not from Lim Toby.” She said with a soft intake of breath.

“Huh?” Chung Grace looked up again and stared at her with a surprised look on her face.

“It’s a long story, let’s go in first.”
