“Yes, olddy.” Zhang Jane said with a smile, “Now that I’ve been told by the youngdy, it really looks like it.”


    “Oh my, that’s wonderful, my little great-grandson, no wonder grandma somehow liked you the first time she saw you.” The olddy excitedly pulled Isaac into her arms, “Little baby, let grandma give you a kiss!”


    When he finished, he kissed him loudly and brightly on the forehead.


    Kissing Isaac made him giggle.


    After kissing Isaac, the older woman stood up and surveyed Cheng Lydia with aforting smile, “It’s good to be back, Ron misses you every day.”


    “Grandma, I …” Cheng Lydia ducked her head apologetically, how was she supposed to say to the olddy that she hadn’t actually nned to return to The Shen Family?


    Seeing how happy the olddy is now, would she let her take Isaac away? I’m sure she won’t.


    “What’s wrong Lydia?” the olddy’s face tightened as she stared at her with an apologetic face, “Still ming grandma for what? It’s true that grandma did a lot of things wrong back then, and it’s also true that grandma was old and confused before she was provoked by that vicious woman Belle and hurt you so deeply. But now that so many years have passed, please forgive me, okay? Grandma swears that she will love you and Isaac well in the future.”


    “Grandma, I didn’t me you when I left back then.”


    “Then why are you leaving?”


    “I left because …” Cheng Lydia looked at Shen Ron and said bitterly, “Feeling like I couldn’t face my feelings for Ron anymore.”


    “What’s so impossible to face when you obviously love each other so much?”


    “Grandma, you’re not me, you can’t understand what I’m feeling inside.”


    “Grandma can understand that.” The old woman patted her hand and said, “Grandma knows you can’t let go of Lim Toby, but Lim Toby is gone, and has been for three years, and it’s time for you to let go.”


    “Well well, you and Ron must have a lot to talk about after not seeing each other for so many years, let’s go upstairs first.” The older woman took Isaac, “Come on baby, let’s get back to ying cards.”


    “But I want to y with Daddy.” Isaac said.


    “Daddy has business to attend to now, so y with Daddyter, okay?” The olddy said dotingly.


    Isaac nodded knowingly and followed the older woman towards the couch.


    The olddy took two steps, turned back and asked, “By the way, have you two eaten yet?”


    Shen Ron shook his head, “No yet, we just met up.”


    “Why don’t you guys go upstairs and I’ll get the kitchen ready.” Zhang Jane smiled and headed for the kitchen.


    Cheng Lydia is passively dragged upstairs by Shen Ron to the bedroom they used to be in.


    Just as it had been over at the Tyrian residence, nothing had changed in this side of the bedroom, except for a few household items that had changed, otherwise it was the same as when she had left before.


    Shen Ron closed the door to the room and walked over to her, reaching out his arms to take her into his arms so that her cheek was close to his heart.


    “Ron don’t you do that!” Cheng Lydia was suddenly pulled into his arms with some ufortable difficulty.


    Shen Ron, however, held her close and whispered above her head, “Do you hear me? The man you miss is here, and he’s alive, always has been.”


    Cheng Lydia was stunned and gave up the struggle.


    She heard it, a strong, regr heartbeat, each one so powerful.


    It’s Lim Toby’s heart, it’s Lim Toby’s …


    Her eyes moistened with an indescribable emotion.


    “Lim Toby used hisst ounce of strength to leave me brief letters on paper, saying he had only one request of me, and that was to love you well in this life.” He said.


    Cheng Lydia’s tears finally flowed.


    In his ear was his continued whisper, “In me there are two loves in all, both belong to you, stay, stay with me, it is Lim Toby’s heart’s desire.”


    “Don’t make me …” Cheng Lydia choked out.


    Shen Ron inhaled lightly with bitterness, “Lydia, I searched for you for six months at first, and then gave up looking. It wasn’t because I wanted to give up on you anymore, but I understood that you needed time to let go. I had waited for you for three years, and had be so impatient with loneliness that I decided to start looking for you again. Fortunately, the heavens had eyes and sent you to me.”


    He looked down at her and said softly, “Now that you’re back, let’s not go away again, okay? Let’s start over.”


    Cheng Lydia closed her eyes, “I’m sorry, I can’t do it.”


    “Lydia, you need to realize one thing, I’m not going to give up on you again in this life. It’s not just me, you see how much Grandma loves Isaac and if you take Isaac away from her, it will be like taking her old man’s life. I know it’s abrupt and ufortable to bring you back like this. It’s okay, I’ll send you back in a moment, and since we’re starting over, let me woo you again, like a normal couple, until the day you agree to marry me.”


    Shen Ron smiled, “I have all the time in the world to woo you, just wait.”


    “Why bother?” Cheng Lydia looked up at him.


    “Let’s not talk about my love for you, just the fact that you are the mother of my child, I can’t let go of you again in my life.” Shen Ron’s gaze softened a little as he gazed at her and said, “Life without you is really not interesting at all, I’m already afraid of living it.”


    It was equally meaningless … for her to live without him.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    The dinner table was full of Cheng Lydia’s favorite dishes.


    Zhang Jane said with a smile, “Youngdy, this is what the olddy specially ordered the kitchen to prepare, I hope your taste hasn’t changed.”


    “Thanks.” Cheng Lydia said gratefully at Zhang Jane.


    “What are you thanking me for, it’s all I should do.” Zhang Jane said, “Take your time and eat, and call me if you have any orders.”


    After Zhang Jane left, Shen Ron led Cheng Lydia to a seat in a chair and offered her a piece of fish in her bowl, “It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten with you, and this feels so good, more inviting than any food.”


    “Then eat more.” Cheng Lydia surveyed his body, which was a little thinner than before, and said, “I’ve been meaning to ask you, how has your health been over the years? Is it better?”


    “All healed up.” Shen Ron patted his chest with his hand and smiled broadly, “The surgery was a sess and the recovery was good, all thanks to you.”


    “How did that be my credit?”


    “You were the one who gave me the motivation to try to live.” Shen Ron paused and said, “When no one dared to tell me that you had left, they only gave me a text message that Lim Toby had left. I thought that even for the sake of Lim Toby, for the sake of his wish to protect you for the rest of his life, I couldn’t be okay. So after I found outter that you were missing, I didn’t give up doing rehab while I was looking for you, and I hoped that I would be strong enough to protect you when I found you.”


    “You see, I’m still the same Shen Ron as before, right?” He gestured triumphantly at himself.


    Cheng Lydia nodded, “Yeah, you’re still the same you, hardly any change.”


    “The changes are there, though.”


    “What?”


    “Love you more than ever.”


    Cheng Lydia smiled and looked down to eat her dinner.


    With Isaac and the olddy’sughter in her ears and Shen Ron’s lovey-dovey words at her side, this was the happy home she’d always dreamed of, wasn’t it?


    After dinner, Shen Ron nned to see Cheng Lydia off from Shen Mansion.


    When the olddy heard that Cheng Lydia was leaving, she hugged Isaac with an anxious look on her face and said, “Haven’t you already gone home? Why do you still want to go? No, I won’t let you go.”


    Cheng Lydia looked at the olddy’s anxiety and was a little disturbed for a moment.


    Isaac also asked with a puzzled look on his face, “Yeah, mom, why can’t we stay with dad and grandparents? I want to sleep with Daddy at night.”


    Cheng Lydia didn’t know how to exin it to him, and couldn’t.


    Shen Ron walked over and took Isaac out of the olddy’s arms, stroking his little head and coaxing, “Isaac, be a good boy ande back to stay with mommy tonight, otherwise mommy will be very lonely. Tomorrow morning, Daddy will pick you up ande back to y with Grandma, okay?”


    “Really?”


    “Of course it’s true.”


    “All right then.” Isaac agreed dispassionately.


    Shen Ron turned to the olddy again and said with a smile, “Grandma, when I get Lydia back in my grasp and wee her back with a big wedding, she’ll never go away again.”


    Still a bit uneasy, the olddy walked up to Cheng Lydia and took her hand pleading, “Lydia, don’t take Isaac and suddenly disappear, grandma will break down.”


    “Don’t worry Grandma, I’ll get them back, mother and son, even if it’s a cliff and a sea.” Shen Ron put a free arm around Cheng Lydia’s shoulders.


    Cheng Lydia twisted her head to look at him, aplex feeling creeping up inside her.
