Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 111



Cheng Lydia pushed open the door panel of Shen Ron’s office, found it empty, and went inside to the break room to look around before walking out of the office to ask Alina in the secretarial department, “Secretary Ji, where is CEO Shen, please?”

“CEO Shen ah?” Alina scowled at her, thinking that by posing with such an attitude of catching adultery, she really thought of herself as CEO Shen’s proper room, and said wistfully, “CEO Shen went to Gu’s to talk about cooperation, I guess he will not be back until later.”

“Thanks.” Cheng Lydia headed for the elevator without another word, completely oblivious to the bad joke of a young secretary behind her, “Alina Festival, you’re so bad.”

“Isn’t she hooking up with our CEO Shen while she’s also hooking up with Gu’s Master Gu? Just let her hook up enough.” Alina finished and followed with a bad smile.

Cheng Lydia rushed to Gu and was immediately stopped by Gu’s receptionist.

Impatient, she had to lie and say she was here to see Master Gu.

The receptionist looked askance at her and asked, “Do you have an appointment with Master Gu?”

“No.”

“Then I’m sorry, I can’t let you up there.”

“I’m friends with him.”

“If you are friends with Master Gu, Miss, you could have called his private number, couldn’t you?”

Yeah heh, you can call his private number.

Cheng Lydia took out her phone and looked down to dial the number, but at that moment she heard the polite and respectful voice of the receptionist across the room, “Good morning, Mr. Gu.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Cheng Lydia turned in surprise, and was surprised to see Gu William’s figure.

What a coincidence!

“She’s a friend of mine, no need to make an appointment later.” Gu William rushed the lady at the front desk.

“Yes, Mr. Gu.” The gaze of the receptionist who regarded Cheng Lydia instantly became respectful.

“Looking for me?” Gu William surveyed Cheng Lydia with a surprised look on his face. It was indeed rare that Cheng Lydia would actively seek him out.

“No.” Cheng Lydia shook her head, “I’m here to see Shen Ron.”

The expression on Gu William’s face dimmed, and sure enough he wasn’t here to see him, but just to see Shen Ron … at his place?

Not waiting for him to come to some sort of realization, Cheng Lydia eagerly said, “I heard Shen Ron came over to talk about a partnership, where is he?”

“Who did you hear that from?”

“His secretary, ah.”

Gu William smiled slightly, “He did go out to talk about a partnership, but not to my place.”

“Where is that going?”

“From what I understand he’ll be meeting with the American CB’s at the Star Hyatt today.”

“Okay, thanks.” Cheng Lydia thanked and then turned around and left.

Gu William rushed after her and said to her back, “Are you going to Starjoy to find him? He’s having a closed and secret meeting today, you can’t get in.”

“How do you know?” Cheng Lydia twisted her head to look at him.

“Gu also had a meeting with the American CB people at Starjoy yesterday, so I know.” Gu William surveyed her with an anxious face, “What is it that you are in such a hurry to find him? Can I … help you?”

“My mom had an accident and was screaming to see him.” Cheng Lydia’s tears welled up.

Gu William eyed him and asked, “What’s wrong with your aunt?”

“Irritated and taken to the emergency room.”

“How did that happen?” Gu William hesitated slightly, “I’ll take you to him.”

“Thank you, then.” In the nick of time, Cheng Lydia couldn’t really say no.

Gu William took her hand in full view and walked quickly towards the parking lot in front of the building, completely ignoring the fact that he had become the center of attention for Gu’s employees.

Cheng Lydia got into his Bugatti once again, biting her lip and trying desperately to control her tears from falling.

The car drove fast and soon arrived at the Starjoy Hotel.

Cheng Lydia has been to the Star Hyatt several times, but never knew where the Star Hyatt’s outside rental meeting room was, and without Gu William, must have been unable to find the place even when she came.

Gu William was familiar enough to lead her into the elevator and head in the direction of the end of the hallway after it led straight to the thirty-third floor.

At the double-pulled wooden door once more, Gu William stopped abruptly and turned his head to stare at her with a serious face, “Do you really have to see him?”

Cheng Lydia was busy nodding her head.

Gu William nodded and raised his hand to enter a string of codes on the cryptograph by the door.

This was a meeting room that CB had rented temporarily to discuss with several large companies, and Gu had met with CB’s senior management in it just yesterday, so Gu William knew the password.

Just … this in, he and Shen Ron are destined to have another war about to kick off.

And yet, what could be done? Cheng Lydia wanted to see him so badly.

The door panel of the meeting room opened with a ‘clatter’, and the dozens of people who were originally meeting inside were disturbed and looked over in unison.

And on the presentation table in the conference room, Shen Ron was presenting a new project to the group on a slide, and when he saw Cheng Lydia, he stopped moving his hands and watched her as the group did … and Gu William behind her.

Cheng Lydia saw a room full of foreigners as soon as she opened the door, but she wasn’t alarmed and didn’t have time to worry about much more. Her eyes roamed around the inside of the conference room and eventually found Shen Ron on the presentation table.

Shen Ron’s eyes were sinking colder and colder, and his expression was stiffening little by little, as he watched coldly as Cheng Lydia was rushing towards him with quick steps. There was only one thought in his mind: this woman wanted to find death!

This meeting to him she Cheng Lydia does not know? Or did he, Gu William, not know? Or did they both know and just came here on purpose to cause havoc?

Ignoring Shen Ron’s cold, frosty face, Cheng Lydia quickly walked up to him and took his hand, saying urgently, “Ron, my mother is screaming to see you, can you please go to the hospital now?”

“Cheng Lydia, are you crazy?” Shen Ron swept the crowd offstage and glared at her as he lowered his voice through gritted teeth, “Do you know what this place is? Don’t get the hell out of here yet.”

“My mom was irritated …”

“Don’t make me repeat myself!” He interrupted her with irritation.

Cheng Lydia choked, staring at him with her mouth open.

Gu William stepped in, grabbed Shen Ron’s hand and headed for the door of the conference room, Shen Ron could not fight with him inside the conference room, so he could only be dragged out of the conference room with a grim face.

Only after dragging him to the terrace on the other side of the corridor did Shen Ron backhandedly punch Gu William in the face and shouted angrily, “Gu William! Do you think that after you brought her here to interfere with my meeting, the CB executives will give Gu the opportunity to cooperate?

Gu William took a heavy punch from him and took a few messy steps backwards, his body against the landing.

“No … it’s not his business!” Cheng Lydia rushed up to stop Shen Ron in a panic, “I begged him to bring me to you, my mom got irritated and vomited blood and is now in the emergency room, but she was dying to see you before she went in.”

Shen Ron was stunned and Cheng Lydia was busy nodding, “Really, I’m not lying to you.”

Shen Ron came back to his senses, but the words coming out of his mouth were extremely cold: “Can’t you see? I am in a very important meeting, if the cooperation is yellow, it will be a countless loss of 50 million, you can afford to pay? Besides, what can we do if we meet? It’s just to ask me to take good care of you in the future, but you know in your own heart that these words are just a waste of her strength.”

“But she had to see you! She wouldn’t even go into the emergency room to see you.” Cheng Lydia cried out in pain and tugged at his sleeve, “Please, go see her, just once …”

Shen Ron stared at her tearful face and swatted her hand away in annoyance, chagrined, “Cheng Lydia! I really owe you in another life!”

Having said this, he turned and walked briskly towards the terrace door, turning back after a few steps and saying, without good grace, to Cheng Lydia, who was crying her heart out, “Don’t go yet!”

Cheng Lydia was stunned for a moment, was this a yes from him?

Not having time to think, she rushed aside to Gu William and bowed deeply before following quickly.

Shen Ron was walking fast, Cheng Lydia was in hot pursuit, and the two disappeared around the corner of the corridor in an instant.

Gu William took a light breath, ran a hand over the corner of his eye where Shen Ron had smashed his face, and straightened his grooming before heading in the direction of the conference room.

Gu William walked up to the podium after a brief hesitation, picked up the microphone and said to the group, “Sorry, CEO Shen is out for a while.”

He spoke English, and the CB executives all eyed him suspiciously; as far as they knew, Gu William was the manager of Gu’s group.

Gu William followed up by saying, “The lady just now is CEO Shen’s wife, Mrs. Shen’s mother is critically ill and is in the hospital for emergency treatment, she hopes to see CEO Shen as soon as possible, CEO Shen is currently on his way to the hospital. I hope everyone can understand his heart for his loved ones and agree to push the meeting to tomorrow morning, thank you all.”

At the end, Gu William added, “CEO Shen and I are very good friends in private.”

He knew the CB’s would be wondering why he had suddenly appeared, which was why he had added that last sentence.

It was nearly two hours later when Cheng Lydia rushed back to the hospital with Shen Ron, and the emergency room door opened just about that time.

A doctor came out, and Cheng Lydia rushed up to him and asked, “Dr. Ho, how is my mother?”

Dr. He looked at her anxious eyes and was a little reluctant to tell her the truth.

He’d actually come out once about half an hour earlier, ready to tell her about Cheng Lena’s condition, except Cheng Lydia wasn’t outside the operating room at the time.

Seeing Dr. Ho’s heavy expression, Cheng Lydia’s heart instantly hung in her throat.

After a helpless sigh, Doctor He said with a reproachful tone, “I told you earlier that the patient needs to maintain a good mood after a recent surgery and must not have too much emotional fluctuation. Doctor Cheng you are a doctor yourself, don’t you know that too much emotional excitement tends to cause lack of blood circulation and lack of itchiness in the brain?”

“Yes, I will pay attention to that in the future, I will.” Cheng Lydia’s grip on the corner of his shirt tightened beyond belief as tears slipped out of her eyes once again, “I will be sure to stay at the door of her hospital room every inch of the way from now on, except I won’t let her see anyone, I … will.”

“I’m sorry, please accept the reality.” Dr. Ho lifted a hand and slapped it on her arm, pulling back the sleeve she was clutching so tightly.

“No … don’t go!” Cheng Lydia went after her, but her body went limp as soon as she took her first step, and she slowly fell to the ground.

Shen Ron scrambled to catch her body and swept her into his arms.

The shock of it almost made his brain go blank.
