Since it was a secret action, they enjoyed it very much.
Lydia saw Elizabeth in good condition and thought she would be bored at home only. Thus, Lydia invited Elizabeth to take a walk further instead of around the villa only.
The community they lived in was with great facility and located in the downtown area. There was a small park in it with beautiful views.
"Mom, your phone is ringing."
Lydia said casually, "It must be my husband being unhappy because we didn't invite him to come together."
"Oh, I'll tell you. Men sometimes can be over clingy. My husband is a great example. I'm surprised at how clingy he can be sometimes at this age."
Listening to Lydia's complaint, Elizabeth chuckled, "Isn't it good? It shows that you are deeply bounded."
Lydia thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Well... As you mentioned it, it seems so."
There were a few acquainted madams who played cards with her. Every time they praised her to be lucky when they met. They said that not only her husband John was handsome and capable to make money, but he also was very obedient to her. And her son James was handsome and outstanding. They said that Lydia was lucky enough to have it all.
To tell the truth, who wouldn't like to hear beautiful compliments? Let alone that they were telling the truth. Although every time Lydia acted humbly when she heard praises, she was indeed happy.
Did she have it all?
Well...
When she thought about it carefully, it seemed to be true. Even if there were times when her John was so clingy, she enjoyed it very much.
"Mom, in fact, what I wanted to do the most before was to work for and develop Liang Company better after graduation. So, I will be the pride of my parents."
"But then I met James. And I saw how sweet you and dad are. Although James is good to me, I admire the love between you and dad. I often dream of being sweet with James as you and dad do. How precious the love is."
Elizabeth smiled shyly as she said that. "I wonder whether my parents would be angry at my words if they were here."
"My kid." Lydia chuckled and patted Elizabeth's hand. "Why do you think so? Look at you, you are also about to be a mother now. You will feel it in the future that the best wish of a parent is to see the child safe, healthy and happy. A parent will be happy if the child achieves in career. But what if it doesn't happen? Well, as I said, happiness comes the first for the kid."
Elizabeth smiled and said, "I see, but..."
As soon as she said this, Lydia's mobile phone rang again, but this time it was a text notification.
Lydia's face darkened as she took it out to have a look. How could John not trust her?
