C76 It Was No Longer Important.

"That's right, my, so I have the right to deal with it!"

"And you don't have the right to order me to pick it up!"

"You don't have the right!"

Ever since she had been reborn, all of Lydia's plans had completely collapsed.

In the end, she could not face this man with a heart as calm as water!

This feeling of losing control made her feel even more annoyed and disgusted.

She pushed the man away angrily and pointed at the door. "Get out!"

At this moment, Reece's dark eyebrows were deeply locked, and he was stunned on the spot with an extremely ugly expression on his face.

Wasn't that necklace from Maria?

How did it become Ava's?

What exactly was wrong with this?

His sharp gaze fell on her once again, and he spat out coldly, "How do you prove it?"

Lydia was at a loss for words when she heard the man's question. However, she quickly realized that he was asking her how she could prove that the necklace belonged to her.

She looked at the man in front of her with suspicion. He actually wanted her to prove it. Didn't he know that she had left the necklace under his pillow?

"Lydia, prove it to me. This necklace belongs to you!"

Perhaps she had been absent-minded for too long, but the man's voice was clearly a few degrees colder.

"The AAS characters are on the collar of the necklace."

As she spoke, she took out a photo frame from the bedside table and opened it. She took out a yellow piece of paper and threw it on the man's face. "This is the original design and meaning of the necklace I designed!"

When the man opened the paper, his gaze swept across the words "AAS: Ann Love Shen". His hand trembled as he held the paper. "The person who has been guarding my bed all this time … is also you?!"

"I have already proven that the necklace is mine. Mr. Tillman, please leave!" Lydia ignored the man's question and limped to the bedside. "I'm tired, I want to rest."

In the next second, she was once again grabbed by the man.

Before she could react, he had already forcefully turned her around. His eyes met with a pair of crimson red eyes. "Was the person who was guarding my bed really you?!"

At this moment, the man was completely different from his usual coldness. His handsome face was filled with anxiety!

This was the first time that Lydia had seen such a panicked Reece. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

What was wrong with this man?

Did he really not know that she was the one who had been guarding his bed all this time?

"Lydia, answer me. Is it really you?!" The man gripped her shoulders tightly. She only came back to her senses when she felt the pain.

She pushed the man away and smiled indifferently. "It's not important whether it's true or not."

Everything was already set in stone. What was the point of flipping through the old grapes and mush?

Lydia's words shocked Reece so much that his heart ached.

She actually said that it was not important. How could it not be important?

This matter was very important!

Who was the girl who was guarding the hospital? To him, Reece, it was very important!

That girl was even more important than his life!

He stretched out his leg and tried to grab the woman who had avoided talking about what had happened back then. However, the door was suddenly pushed open. "Reece, I think someone fell down. Who is it? Are you alright?"

A worried voice sounded from behind him. Reece froze in his tracks.

Josie looked at the two people in the room who seemed to be in a bad mood. She walked over to the man and tugged at his sleeve. "Reece, you two are quarrelling again?"

The man didn't say a word, so Josie thought that he had tacitly agreed.

She glanced at the dark-faced Lydia beside the bed. Her eyes were filled with disdain and disdain.

Originally, she thought that this disabled person was smart, but she didn't expect that this woman would still be as reckless as before. As long as she came across something related to Maria, Lydia would cause a ruckus in Reece's direction.

Heh!

Idiot!

However, this idiot had fallen right into her trap.

She secretly gloated for a while, then tried to persuade him with good intentions, "Reece, you should always give way to Lydia. This is the way a husband and wife should be. You..."

Josie chattered on and on. Reece was irritated by her words.

"Who let you in?"

"..." Josie was stunned speechless. Her expression turned ugly. "Reece, I was worried about you and Lydia, that's why I..."

"Get out!"

Before she could finish her sentence, the man interrupted her. The disdain and annoyance in his eyes could not be concealed.

Josie felt her nose turn sour when she saw the man's true emotions.

"Re...Reece, are you blaming me for talking too much?"

She bit her lower lip as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Re...Reece?"

At this moment, Lydia, who was on the bed, looked at Josie coldly.

It was said that when a woman said that she didn't want to tear up, it was the most heartbreaking. For example, the current Josie!

She thought that any man would be reluctant to see such a touching Josie.

Of course, this also included Reece.

After all, Reece had married Josie in his previous life.

No matter what, he still liked Josie, this kind of gentle, weak, and sensible woman.

Hmm, this was also quite good.

"Get out!"

Just as she was sighing with emotion, a deep and cold voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

Lydia froze. She suddenly looked at Reece, who was opposite her.

Reece's face was ashen. His eyes were not as distressed and unwilling as she had imagined. Instead, they were filled with an unwavering coldness.

She frowned slightly, her face filled with confusion.

Why didn't this man play by the rules?

What was wrong?

"Excuse me." At this moment, Josie ran out with red eyes and a pale face.

Once again, the door slammed shut.

In the room, only Lydia and Reece were left. The atmosphere was a little silent.

After a long time, Reece rubbed the space between his eyebrows and his dark eyes fell on the woman's delicate face. His eyes were filled with determination. "It's very important to me whether it's true or not."

The man's deep voice was like a drum beating against her heart, causing her to tremble.

However, in the end, she still smiled coldly.

"Oh, is that so? But... it has nothing to do with me anymore."

Reece's heart was filled with bitterness. "..."

At that moment, his thin lips opened and closed as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. In the end, he picked up the necklace from the trash can.

His slender fingers gently brushed away the dirt on the necklace. His tightened lips eased up a little.

"If you don't say it, I will figure it out eventually."

Because this matter concerned whether he loved the right person!

What he wanted to protect and pamper was the girl who waited for him by his bedside every day and night.

Reece put away his necklace and left without looking back. He left behind an image of a woman who was free and unwavering.

Lydia turned to look out of the window, her eyes slightly red.

Reece, so what if you know?

Everything was already set in stone.

She took a deep breath and laid back on the bed. She closed her eyes tiredly, but a transparent liquid fell from the corner of her eyes.

At this moment, in the living room on the first floor.

Tap, tap, tap!

Josie hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face and stood up from the sofa.

She turned her head to look at the man and said, "Reece, it's almost time. It's time for us to go to the cemetery to pay our respects."

"... Alright." Reece paused for a moment, and a trace of coldness flashed across his eyes.

"Reece, let's go." Seeing that he still agreed to go to the cemetery, the grievances in Josie's heart lessened.

She reached out to pull Reece's arm, but the man walked out of the room with a cold face.

Even though the man was indifferent, Josie didn't take it to heart.

Lydia was so angry that she couldn't help but follow him.

After getting into the car, Reece dialed Loran's number.

"Sixth Bro, you are too insincere. You left such a mess behind and left just like that? How unkind!"

Facing Loran's accusation, the man ignored him. He took a deep breath and said coldly, "The doctors and nurses who found out that I was hospitalized for a car accident came out!"

"No, it's not just them. Go and ask the doctors and nurses on the entire floor! When she came in and out of my ward, there must have been other people who saw her!"

"What's wrong?" Loran felt that something was wrong with the man's voice, so he immediately stopped smiling.

"Find them and give them the pictures of Ava and Maria! I want to know who was the one who protected me!"

Loran frowned in confusion. "Sixth Brother, didn't your nurse say that it was Maria?"

"If I asked you to go and confirm it, then go and confirm it!" The man frowned, and his tone became even more unpleasant.

Seeing that the man was angry, Loran didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly did as he was told.

After putting away the phone, Reece took out the necklace from his pocket and took a deep puff from the cigarette.

Soon, the narrow space became extremely choking.

When they arrived at the Woodward family's residence, Josie opened the door for them from another car. She was so shocked by the smoke that her eyes turned red and tears streamed down her cheeks. "Cough, cough... Reece, please wait for a moment. I'll call my parents and we'll go to the cemetery immediately."

"There's no rush. I have something to ask them."

Reece extinguished the cigarette in his hand and got out of the car.

Seeing him walk towards the residential area, Josie felt uneasy. She closed the door and quickly followed him.

"Reece, you're here. Your uncle and I will pack up and go to the cemetery together." Seeing Reece, Mildred hurriedly greeted him.

"There's no rush. I have something I want to ask your parents."

Seeing the man's serious face, Mildred was stunned for a moment. She quickly put on a smile and asked, "What is it?"

"Back then, was the person who was guarding me in the hospital, Maria?" The man's dark eyes fell on Mildred, causing her to stiffen.

Seeing this, the man frowned. "What? Isn't it her?"

"Yes, it's Maria. Of course it's her!" Seeing that the man was suspicious, Mildred quickly explained, "When she was taking care of you, she fainted because of hypoglycemia!"

"Right, right. That child, Maria, has been guarding you for nearly half a month." Willian, who was at the side, also hurriedly agreed.

The words of the Woodward family were very accurate. The man's phone on the sofa rang.

The man looked at Loran's number and answered, "How is it?"

"Your nurse and doctor all said that it was Maria."

"Oh? What about the others?" The man continued to ask.

"There were a few people who said they saw Ava, and...one of them even said that she remembered it very clearly. It was the doctor who gave her the acupuncture needles."

Hearing Loran's words, Reece narrowed his eyes.

He replied, "I know." Then he put away the phone and looked at the people from the Woodward family again. "Are you sure it's Maria?"

"Yes, of course."

"Right!"

Hearing this, the man's eyes darkened. "But according to what I know, the person who was watching over me was Lydia. Why don't you give an explanation?"

The man's words caused the hearts of the Woodward family members to thump, and their expressions turned ugly.
