Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 55



He put his phone down and walked over to the table to pick up a bottle and fill his glass, tilting his head and taking a sip before frowning and looking down to realize it was wine.

Wine on the bar, just the right amount of heart relief.

Just the thought that Gu William was most likely hiding in a corner somewhere getting drunk at the moment made him feel good.

Cheng Lydia came out of the bathroom after showering and blow-drying her hair, and caught a glimpse of the empty wine glasses on the table, with some golden liquid still inside them, something that hadn’t been there just before she had gone into the bathroom.

She immediately turned her gaze to Shen Moxie, who was nestled on the sofa, and found that he had fallen asleep.

Why is he drinking again?

Cheng Lydia walked over and nudged Shen Ron’s arm calling out, “Shen Ron, why are you drinking again? Aren’t you going to take a shower?”

Shen Ron opened his eyes slyly and stared at her and said, “I want more, I’m happy …”

“What are you happy about? Hurry up and go to bed.” Cheng Lydia tried to help him up from the couch.

Shen Ron, however, grabbed her by both shoulders and gazed at her with a drunken smile, “Honey, no one can take you away from me, right … Gu William he tried to take you away from me and after all these years he still won’t let go… … what to do? What if he steals you away from me?”

He was happy, but more angry and worried, what would he do if Gu William succeeded?

Cheng Lydia s heart tightened and was dripping with blood when she let go …

He held her so tightly, his expression so gentle, but she knew that the woman he feared being taken from her in his eyes at that moment was not her, but Yang June!

He’s treating her like Yang June again, and just as she’s moved by his search all over town, he slams her into the abyss of ten thousand battles with a single blow.

Shen Ron suddenly leaned in and kissed her on the lips as soon as he could.

The strong scent of wine instantly filled her entire mouth, not an unpleasant scent, but Cheng Lydia pushed his body away in revulsion, her small face turned aside and said in a bad mood, “Shen Ron you look at me clearly! I’m not Yang June!”

Shen Ron froze for a moment, cupping her chin in his hand to turn her face around and examine it carefully, then smiled astringently, “You’re Cheng Lydia.”

“That’s right, I’m Cheng Lydia, so please remember that.” Cheng Lydia pushed him away and prepared to get up from the couch when she recoiled and tugged on her arm, flipping her over and pinning her to the couch.

Hot kisses poured onto the face, her neck, not giving her a chance to escape.

“Shen Ron …!” Cheng Lydia stubbornly twisted her head to escape his kiss, she wasn’t going to be a stand-in for another woman, she’d already been Yang June’s stand-in for one night, she wasn’t going to even be a stand-in for something like this, she wasn’t!

But, how could she be a match for the strong and powerful him? Despite her many reluctances, she finally submitted to his coercion.

It seemed to happen every time, every time he fought hard at first, only to end up uncontrolled and become a treat for his mouth.

Staring at his handsome face, which had fallen into a deep sleep, Cheng Lydia’s heart was overwhelmed with sadness.

Silently, she moved his arm across her waist and turned her back to him, her eyes gazing through the floor-to-ceiling window into a darkened expanse.

Outside the window, the snow is starting to fall again.

It was another night of insomnia, and it wasn’t until the sky opened as brightly as it did outside the window that Cheng Lydia finally fell into dreamland.

The dream was not very good, at any time, a turn, a side of the head … was full of the shadow of Yang June. That slim and clear woman under the waving station sharp ten fingers, open a pair of blood red pupils lunged at her, yelling to strangle her, to drive her away from Shen Ron s side.

Cheng Lydia shook her head and struggled, so anxious that she could not even speak clearly, pleading one sentence after another, “Don t … I will never steal Shen Ron from you, don t kill me … please …”

Her voice was so high and urgent that even Shen Ron, who was beside her, was awakened by her. He propped himself up and surveyed the cold, sweaty, terrified Cheng Lydia, touching her forehead and calling out, “Lydia, what’s wrong with you?”

“Don’t kill me, don’t …” Cheng Lydia continued to plead.

“No one is going to kill you.” Shen Ron took her into his arms and patted her back whispering soothingly, “No one is going to kill you, don’t be afraid.”

“There … Yang June … Yang June is trying to kill me …”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“June is kind, she won’t kill you.” He stroked away the cold sweat on her forehead.

Finally, Cheng Lydia gradually quieted down and drifted off to sleep in his arms.

It wasn’t until he saw her asleep that Shen Ron carefully placed her back on the pillow, gazing at her pale little face, the hickey on the nape of her neck, and Shen Ron’s heart rose with some regret.

He banged his head with his fist and began to regret the extra glass of wine he’d had last night; wine was such a harmful thing, and if he hadn’t had that extra glass, how could he have been so confused that he’d taken her for Yang June?

It must be a bad feeling to be used as someone’s double in bed, right? No wonder she’s having nightmares.

When Cheng Lydia opened her eyes, the pillow was empty and Shen Ron was nowhere to be found.

She sat up from her bed and reached for her phone to check her schedule; she had another set of clients to see this morning and an afternoon flight back to LS City.

Shen Ron was probably off meeting with a client and she, the secretary, was actually sleeping in bed, which was rather unbecoming when you thought about it.

Everything from last night came to mind, Shen Ron hugging her, kissing her, wanting her while his heart was pining for Yang June who stayed in LS City, that feeling … is sad when you think about it.

And Shen Ron is indeed a ruthless man, tossed tired to sleep, wake up and leave, like the book of that brush a sleeve, do not take away a cloud.

Cheng Lydia took a deep breath, grabbed the robe that Shen Ron had picked up and hung on the chair covers and put it on, heading for the bathroom.

When she finished washing up and walked out of the bathroom, she was surprised to see Shen Ron.

“I thought you were meeting with a client?” She looked at him in his tracksuit, her eyes a little flat.

“Pushing it into the afternoon.” Shen Ron pulled an outfit from his closet and said as he changed, “Just went to the hotel gym, how about we go for a walk later and meet a client this afternoon?” He twisted his head to stare at her and smiled.

The coldness on Cheng Lydia’s face was not something he didn’t feel.

“Aren’t we going back to LS City this afternoon?”

“LILY secretly booked the flight for two days later, I think it was probably Grandma’s idea.”

So long …

There was no need to guess what the old lady’s intention was, so Cheng Lydia didn’t ask more questions and nodded, “Okay, then I’ll listen to your arrangement.”

Shen Ron came over and stroked her head smiling lightly, “Go get changed.”

Cheng Lydia went to change and walked out of the suite with him, and the two went to a traditional Japanese breakfast before arriving in front of a famous trade building.

Surveying the trade building in front of her, Cheng Lydia queried and turned her head to ask Shen Ron, who was beside her, “What are we doing here?”

“Shop around.” Shen Ron ripped off his seatbelt and pulled her side away again smiling, “Come on, there’s plenty of time anyway and nothing else to do if you’re not shopping.”

As he spoke, Cheng Lydia had been swept into his arms and headed inside the building.

Cheng Lydia walked in only to find that the first floor was filled with jewelry sellers and the second floor was actually the same. She once again turned her puzzled gaze to Shen Ron, wondering why he had brought her here.

And Shen Ron, obviously quite familiar with the place, led her all the way to a large treasure house on the right side of the second floor.

As soon as the two stepped inside, they were immediately greeted by a woman speaking Chinese who smiled politely and said, “Excuse me, are you Mr. and Mrs. Shen?”

“Hmm.” Shen Ron nodded a little.

“Good morning Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen, I am Miss Li who is in charge of receiving you, the gemstone necklace you ordered from our company Mr. Shen has been delivered, please come over here to see the goods, you two.” The woman smiled and made an inviting gesture inwards at the two of them.

It’s a chic, expensive sapphire, so expensive that Cheng Lydia can’t bear to look at the numbers on the price bar.

Instead, Shen Ron picked up the gemstone necklace from the box and held it up to her with a wabi-sabi smile, “Try it and see if you like it.”

Cheng Lydia looked at the gemstone necklace and was surprised that Shen Ron had ordered it for her? But why would Shen Ron order her a gemstone necklace?

She didn’t actually like these expensive and impractical things, nor did she have any use for them at all.

“Why are you buying me a necklace?” She dropped her eyes to gaze at the glorious gemstone necklace in his hand.

“It’s been almost two months since we got married and we haven’t given you a gift yet.”

That’s the reason he gave her the necklace? That sounds pretty grand.

“No need to break the bank so much, I don’t like wearing jewelry.” Instead of extending her neck over to him to put on the necklace, she shrank back and shook her head no.

When Miss Li heard that she didn’t want it, she smiled and said, “Mrs. Shen, this gemstone necklace was chosen for you by Mr. Shen early this morning after he had chosen it for a long time, Mr. Shen loves you very much. Moreover, the style and color of this necklace suits you very well, and the price is also reasonable, after all, it is a piece of Mr. Shen’s heart, so you can accept it.”

Cheng Lydia raised her eyes to Shen Ron in surprise, but her heart was sad.

Shen Ron didn’t buy her such an expensive gemstone necklace because he loved her, he was just sorry for his actions last night, he was just mending the wounds in her heart with a gift. After all, he can’t give her anything else other than that!

It was sad to think that he was both so superficial and vain in his mind.

Seemingly out of betrayal, Cheng Lydia shifted her gaze from the gemstone necklace to the diamond rings in the adjacent counter, each with its own distinctive features, and her eyes finally settled on one of them, which was about half a carat.

Miss Li, who was good at reading people’s faces, saw that she was interested in the diamond ring, so she quickly brought out the one she had her eye on from inside the cabinet and said with a smile, “Does Mrs. Shen like this diamond ring? Mrs. Shen has a good eye, this is a pear-shaped diamond, with eight arrows and eight hearts cutting surface, extremely pure, and the price is also very reasonable. The main thing is that this ring has a very special meaning, it’s called Beloved for Life.”

Bell loves … Cheng Lydia smiled to herself.

She and Shen Ron, how can they love each other for life?

This ring is only for Yang June, and only she is entitled to it.

But … she looked down at her raw, sore knuckles, and she wanted it so badly that her knuckles were raw with want.

“Or this gemstone necklace suits you better, generous, noble and elegant.” Shen Ron slung the gemstone necklace around her neck with a gentle smile.

The gemstone was cold, burned into the nape of Cheng Lydia’s neck, and it was a penetrating chill.

“Can I not either?” She looked up and smiled at him.

“No. The deposit has already been paid.” Shen Ron fastened the necklace clasp.

Heh, what a dominant man.

For his own peace of mind, but not for her feelings.
