My dear lawyer

Chapter 420 Deep Affection

Though John was driving, he paid attention to Vivian the whole time, so he could not help laughing at

how hesitant Vivian was when talking, “Give me the honor to help you with your concerns, lady.”

This joking attitude made Vivian even more hesitant to ask him about the truth.

Indeed, though she knew well how a stable marriage could help her take the custody of Roe, she did

not want to take it away from another woman.

Having a relationship with William behind Angie’s back already cost all her courage in this life.

Vivian shook head and looked serious, “John, I want to ask you a question.”

Maybe infected by her serious attitude, John started to get serious too, “What is it?”

“Do you have a fiancée?”

John’s face immediately changed color after hearing that.

Vivian closed her eyes, as if she already got an idea from his reaction.

John braked the car immediately then turned to Vivian, “Vivian, did anyone spread these words in front

of you? Or did my mom talk to you?”

He should have thought of this. He could not know his mother better. She has been so against his

relationship with Vivian. How was it possible that she only talked to him about this?

He should have thought about this earlier!

Vivian shook head, “No, I didn’t see your mother. You don’t need to think too much about this.”

John sneered. How could he not think more about this?

Soon after, a thought popped up in his mind. His look turned angry and cold, “Was it William? Did

William tell you this?”

Vivian hesitated for a second then nodded honestly, “William said that it would be impossible for me to

marry you to take Roe away, because your family wouldn’t agree to it with your engagement in the

past. That girl grew up with you.”

After his guess got confirmed, John calmed down.

It was not his family’s fault. It was just the enemy being cunning.

That would be easier for him to handle.

Warm smile returned to John’s face. He petted Vivian on her head and acted like he did not see her

unconsciously dodging his hand, “Vivi, do you believe me or William? Don’t you know what type of

person he is?”

“So, there is no such a fiancée?” said Vivian confusedly.

Though William was never a good guy and always treated her coldly, but she has never heard him lying

before.

John nodded, “Of course no.”

After a short pause, he continued, “I do have a childhood friend though. I only see her as a younger

sister. She also considers me as a brother. That engagement was my mom’s own passion. It’s ok, you

don’t need to worry about this. As long as my mom knows that we are serious with each other, she

wouldn’t go far.”

Vivian looked down, feeling unsettled.

She still remembered John’s reaction earlier. If that childhood friend was not his fiancée, his big

reaction only proved that his family already knew about her existence and did not like her.

“Vivi, you still don’t believe me?” John got closer to her like an abandoned puppy. He sounded tired and

sad, softening Vivian’s heart.

John put his forehead with Vivian’s together and looked into her eyes, “Vivi, maybe my family does

have some voices against our relationship, but believe me that everything will get better, ok?”

Vivian said, “Is it worth it?” Light left a shadow under her eyelashes. She answered after a long silence.

John chuckled and held her, “Of course it is worth it. You don’t know how grateful I was when seeing

you again. Vivi, I waited for you for so long. God sent you back to me when I was about to break down.

This is destiny. I believe that we will be happy together.”

“No matter how many troubles there will be.” He gently kissed her forehead. That warm temperature

messed her heart.

Vivian felt overwhelmed. She did not know what to say anymore.

Her morals made her unwilling to accept that John had a fiancée.

However, the fact that she needed this marriage to take Roe back made it hard for her to leave all

these behind.

She already owed John too much. For sure she would be happy to marry him if she could pay him back

in this way and gave Roe a great life at the same time.

Nevertheless, the precondition was that he would really be happy because of her and that she did not

ruin anybody’s happiness for this.

After a long time, Vivian laid on him with eyes closed, “John, don’t lie to me.”

She was already stepping on fragile ice. She did not want to get involved into others’ lives anymore

after doing so many wrong things.

Seeing her exposing her weakness in front of him, John unconsciously held her more tightly, laying his This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

chin on her head and sniffing her fragrant hair gently.

“Don’t worry, why would I lie to you?” John promised to her.

A light fragrance flowed in the car. This man’s warm hug made her trance.

She thought ridiculously, if this man were William, wouldn’t that make me the happiest woman in the

world?

Soon, she shook head hard and sneered at herself.

What was she thinking?

How could she still have hope for that man?

“Vivian, you should really stop!” She told herself.

“What happened? Vivi, are you not feeling good?” John looked down to check her look.

At this dim night, the car’s warm light shined on her face. That vague color gradually turned John on.

Vivian shook head, “I am ok.”

“Vivi…” John suddenly looked down at her, staring at her lips deeply.

Vivian paused. Seeing him getting closer and closer, she knew what he wanted to do.

Her mind went blank. Finally, she pushed him away at the last moment.

Awkward atmosphere surrounded them.

John’s breathing paced. Vivian looked away, daring not to look at him.

Regretfully touched his hair, John coughed, trying to look more natural, but it actually just made her

blush even more.
