Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

“Ma … let Lim Toby go and save Shen Ron’s life, any later and Shen Ron will be dead.” Cheng Lydia suddenly knelt down in front of Mrs. Lim and took her hand and pleaded, “Lim Toby has gone, we can’t let Shen Ron go too, let Lim Toby’s heart accompany Shen Ron to live together … ”

Mrs. Lim looked at her son, who was already covered in a white cloth on the hospital bed, and finally nodded and signed her name on the consent form.

“I’m sorry, Mom, I’ve been selfish.”

Mrs. Lim shook her head and hugged her, “Lim Toby loved you so much, let his heart live on in another way, keep on loving you, it was his last wish, mommy knew it in her heart.”

“Mom … thank you.”

“I should have made him whole.” Mrs. Lim lifted her off the floor, “Get up, child.”

Lim Toby’s memorial service was held three days later, during which Cheng Lydia spent her days in the beach house where she and Lim Toby had last lived.

The villa wasn’t much, but it was empty without Lim Toby.

The maid’s aunt was packing up her belongings, and henceforth the place would no longer be inhabited.From NôvelDrama.Org.

“Ms Cheng, aren’t you going?” Auntie asked as she stood behind her.

Cheng Lydia turned around and surveyed her, “Why are you gone too?”

“The young master said before he died that he had sold the place and told me to go back to work at Lim Mansion when he was gone.”

“He sold the place?” Cheng Lydia was surprised.

“Yes, I also asked young master Ms Cheng what you would do at that time, but young master said Ms Cheng would have her own home and her own house in the future, so she didn’t have to live here.”

Cheng Lydia knew that Lim Toby was hoping that when he was gone, she could go back to Shen Ron and live a good life, but …

She took a bitter breath and stepped towards the door.

She arrived at the memorial service and looked at Lim Toby’s peaceful face from a distance, the way it looked, clearly as if he was asleep, how could he not wake up? Her heart twisted like a knife.

“Lydia, what are you doing here?” Mrs. Lim hugged her with tears in her eyes and shook her head, “You shouldn’t have come, you’re pregnant …”

Cheng Lydia shook her head and smiled through her tears, “Mom, Lim Toby he’s not going to hurt me or the baby, I’m not afraid.”

She walked over to Lim Toby’s side and took his cold palm.

“Lydia, you don’t have to do this …” Mrs. Lim pounced on her, in tears trying to pull her away from Lim Toby.

Cheng Lydia, still smiling tearfully, gazed at Mrs. Lim and said, “Mom, Lim Toby’s beloved cufflinks haven’t been put on him yet.”

Mrs. Lim let go of her hand.

Cheng Lydia pulled out the pair of cufflinks that Lim Toby couldn’t part with and carefully placed them on Lim Toby’s cuffs, bean-sized tears dripping onto the back of his hand.

“Toby, have a good trip.” She gave his cold palm a final shake before releasing it and getting up to step back to the side.

There was a sudden noise at the door, and the housekeeper intercepted Feng Ann who was desperately barging inside while saying in an emotional hurry, “Miss Feng, you are not out of the month yet, you shouldn’t come here …”

“Let me in, please let me in …”

“No, Miss Feng, you have just given birth, your body is already weak, it is easy to …”

“I don’t care! I’m not afraid!” Feng Ann cried and shouted at Mrs. Lim inside, “Auntie, please let me in, please.”

The housekeeper looked at Mrs. Lim with a helpless look on her face.

Feng Ann pushed away the housekeeper, rushed to Mrs. Lim and knelt down: “Auntie, I want to see Lim Toby one last time, I want to see him off, please make it possible for me, please …”

Mrs. Lim leaned over and helped her up off the floor, sort of by default.

Feng Ann then immediately flung herself at Lim Toby’s side and burst into tears, “Lim Toby, although you have never loved me, I am still happy to stay by your side and to be able to give birth to James and Alice for you. If there is an afterlife, make sure I meet you again, you can not love me, not marry me, not touch me, but make sure you let me meet you, even if I can only look at you from afar …”

“Okay, stop crying, it’s time.” The butler walked up and pulled her away from Lim Toby’s side.

“No, I still have something to say to Lim Toby …”

“Miss Feng, you can’t miss the young master’s time.”

“Don’t … I haven’t even had a chance to look at him properly yet.”

“Ann,” Mrs. Lim stepped forward and hugged her, patting her shoulder soothingly, “You know all your feelings Lim Toby, all of them. … Don’t cry anymore.”

“Auntie, my heart hurts so much, I want to follow Lim Toby and forget about it, but I can’t leave James and Alice behind, what should I do? What should I do …?”

“Stay strong, you still have James and Alice.”

Cheng Lydia turned away, afraid to hear anyone cry again.

The entire The Lim Family mansion is filled with sadness as the housekeeper with a group of servants cleans up Lim Toby’s belongings.

Mrs. Lim hadn’t had a good night’s rest in days, but she still didn’t feel the slightest bit sleepy.

Feng Ann came to her with the chicken soup prepared in the kitchen and advised softly, “Auntie, have some chicken soup.”

Mrs. Lim lifted her head, took the chicken soup and surveyed her, smiling bitterly, “Ann, are you better?”

Feng Ann nodded, her mood still low, “I’ve been fine.”

“That’s good.” Mrs. Lim took a sip of the chicken soup, set the bowl on the table, and said to her, “What are your plans for the future?”

Feng Ann smiled bitterly, “According to the original agreement, I had to leave The Lim Family with a five million dollar deal after the baby turned one month old. but, Aunty …”

Tears rolled out of her eyes, “When I first fought to be a surrogate for The Lim Family, it wasn’t for the five million, I just wanted to be involved with Lim Toby for a little while, I wanted to have children for him. Now that Lim Toby is gone, and Edith will have to marry sooner or later, can you please let me stay with The Lim Family to take care of you and James and Alice? I can take no name, no status, no name brand, I just want to be by James and Alice’s and your side in this life instead of Lim Toby.”

Mrs. Lim stroked her hair and said, “Silly girl, you can take the five million and go live a good life, find a good man, get married and have children and build a happy and fulfilling family.”

“To me it is happiness to be by the side of James and Alice and you, Auntie, please let me stay.”

“What’s so hard about letting you stay, I just don’t want to condescend to you.” Mrs. Lim sighed lightly and said, “You stay, and one day when you meet the man you love and don’t want to stay with The Lim Family, Aunty will get you a dowry so you can marry in style.”

Feng Ann cried tears of joy and jumped into Mrs. Lim’s arms, saying gratefully, “Thank you, Auntie, I won’t marry, I’ll stay by your side all my life to honor you.”

“If you must stay, shouldn’t it be time to say ‘Mom’ instead?” Mrs. Lim smiled.

“Can I really?” Feng Ann stared up at her.

“Of course, even though you and Lim Toby aren’t married, you’re James and Alice’s mother. When James and Alice are older, if they hear you calling me ‘Auntie Auntie’ all the time, they’re sure to ask questions, and then we’ll know how to explain it to them.”
