Haniya hurriedly nodded when she heard Mango entrusting Zion to her.
"Madam, don't worry. I will take good care of Zion."
"You should also take care of yourself. Besides, I have already told Master Mo that I will let you meet Lydia."
Haniya was stunned by these words.
Nanny Liu was very excited as she stood my the side.
"Mrs. Ye, is this true?"
"It's true, but it might be the last time. Haniya, you have to be mentally prepared."
Mango knew Haniya's desire for family affection, but there were some things that could not be undone. It was already a miracle for Haniya to meet Lydia.
Haniya naturally knew this, so she nodded with a heavy heart.
Mango's sadness decreased a little because of the impact of this matter.
Haniya was sent out in a special car in the afternoon while she was accompanied by Nanny
Liu.
Haniya didn't have to take Nanny Liu with her, but she knew that Nanny Liu was extremely close to Lydia. Thus, she naturally hoped to give them a chance to say goodbye.
When Haniya sat in the reception room and saw Lydia come out in prison clothes, her eyes were still teary even though it was the first time she saw Lydia.
Lydia's eyes were calm, but she was more or less agitated when she saw Haniya.
"You shouldn't have come to this place."
"Mom..."
Haniya thought she could not call Lydia that, but she naturally said it out when she saw Lydia. Perhaps it was because of the blood relationship or something else. Not only did Haniya shout it out, but she also cried as well.
Lydia's eyes were filled with tears when she heard Haniya calling her 'Mom'.
"Alas..."
She never thought that she could still hear her daughter call her that in her lifetime.
Lydia actually wanted to hug Haniya, but she knew that she couldn't.
Lydia reached out to follow the outlines of Haniya's face across the glass and she tried to engrave it in her heart.
"Mom, are you okay in there?"
Haniya had heard of the things that happened in prison and she was very worried about it.
Lydia smiled and said, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. It's just that you won't have any relatives by your side in the future. You must take good care of yourself. You don't have to be rich, and I just want you to be safe and sound. It's my fault. I was forced to leave you that year, so please don't hate me."
"No! I don't hate you!"
Haniya knew that if it weren't for Lydia's ability to adapt to the situation, she might not have been able to survive until now. She might not even be able to know Mango and the rest of her friends, and she may not have her current life.
She just felt a little sorry that she had no chance to be with Lydia in this life.
They had to be separated as soon as they met, and it was very likely that they would be apart forever. It was really heart-wrenching.
Lydia smiled when she heard that Haniya did not hate her.
"My daughter is the kindest girl I know, but she doesn't have a good family. I heard that you have a boyfriend named Desmond, right? I didn't have the chance to meet him. I saved you a sum of money in the bank under Nanny Liu's name, which is my dowry for you. This is also the only thing that I can give you."
Haniya instantly felt uncomfortable.
"Mom, I don't need it. Actually, I just want to be with you."
Haniya knew that it was just her hope, but she couldn't help it.
How could Lydia not feel the same way?
But she had chosen the wrong path and there was no turning back.
She looked at Haniya with great reluctance and she wanted nothing more than for time to stop.
Nanny Liu burst into tears.
Although Lydia's crime was not confirmed, her sentence wouldn't be light because she protected Diego. She might even be sentenced to death.
"Miss!"
