My dear lawyer

Chapter 442 You’re Screwed

James stamped his foot out of fear.

He had not seen William so angry for a long time.

He thought that William would be the one to win Vivian back, but the final result was out of his

expectation.

James didn’t know whether Vivian was amazing or William was stupid.

But he knew Vivian was going to be screwed!

She was the one William fell for and now she was abhorred.

Tut-tut...

“Interesting?” William’s voice suddenly rang in his ears, and James was almost jumping up with

surprise.

“No, it was not interesting at all! I promise!” James almost lifted his hand to swear.

William squinted his eyes without saying any words.

James now quailed and dared not to speak.

“Go and check what happened to John’s family yesterday.” William left a word and walked towards the

manor.

James stepped forward with some hesitation and followed closely.

Others might not notice his wound, but James noticed that the old wounds on William’s arm were not

healed and now new wounds were added. At this moment, William walked in an extremely

uncoordinated manner.

Yet, even so, James could still feel his loneliness and despair.

If this continued, something terrible would definitely happen.

James secretly thought that he must handle the matter as soon as possible.

As a result, John’s family that was in a mess received a mysterious call in a short time. When William

returned in despair, Mrs. Lucia and Roe were already up.

Roe had finished his morning cleaning. He wore greasy hair and looked like a little noble gentleman

from the Middle Ages.

After knowing that his mother would come back to have breakfast with him from William’s call before,

Roe was very happy and jumped here and there.

Now he was looking around.

“William, you are back,” Mrs. Lucia said with a smile. She was the first to find her son back.

But she felt something was wrong in the next second.

It was the expression on his face that made her a little confused.

William squinted his eyes and looked like a stranger, which made her feel difficult to get close to.

Besides, Vivian was not with him.

Mrs. Lucia knew that something was wrong.

Roe, who was excited before, was also stunned and said, “Dad, where is my mom?”

The chill that came out from William’s flesh was more.

“I don’t know!” William said coldly and went upstairs without looking back.

Roe pouted and felt like crying. He was pulling a sorrowful face.

He was not a fool and had guessed that his mom would not come back.

But he wanted to know the reason because his mom had promised to come back and have breakfast

with him.

He even doubted that his mom wanted to abandon him.

It was not Roe like imaging things. By comparison, Mrs. Lucia could give him more security. so he was

afraid that his mom would abandon him from now on.

Mrs. Lucia comforted Roe anxiously, “Roe, don’t worry. Maybe your mom has something urgent, so she

can’t come for the time being. But you will have more chances to meet her in the future. Besides, you

already had dinner with your mom yesterday.”

“But mom hardly breaks a promise. She said that she would come back for breakfast with me.” Roe

said glumly.

Mrs. Lucia felt a slight unease.

If William wouldn’t marry Vivian, it would still be useless for them to get custody of Roe since Roe

wanted to stay with his mom. Besides, if William married someone else in the future, his relationship

with Roe would be ruined and if later Roe had some half-siblings, something worse would happen.

Fight among siblings in such a distinguished family was a common occurrence.

But Roe was such a good grandson that she was reluctant to give up.

Mrs. Lucia did not want to see either of those things happen and decided to talk to William.

“Maybe there is something urgent for your mom. She is already an adult and you should be a good boy.

Let’s give your mom some time. OK?” Mrs. Lucia still tried to pacify Roe.

Roe nodded absently, obviously a little perfunctory.

When Mrs. Lucia smacked her lips and did not know what to say, Roe’s mobile phone rang.

“It’s my mom!” Roe’s eyes lighted up and then dimmed a little.

As soon as the call was connected, Roe pouted and said sadly, “Mom, you promised to come back and

have breakfast with me.”

Roe’s voice melted Vivian’s heart. She felt touched and almost let John take her back to look for Roe.

But she still kept reasonable control of her emotions.

Holding the mobile phone, Vivian felt like crying and said, “Good boy, mom has something urgent to do

first. I will come back to see you when I’m done. This time, it is me who did not keep my promise. I’m

very sorry. I will compensate you for what you want. OK?”

Roe was not an unreasonable kid. After listening to the explanation, although it was almost the same

as what he heard from his grandma, the effect was quite different.

Roe’s mood improved immediately.

He waved his hand and said, “No, it’s OK if you can come to see me!”

Vivian had mixed feelings for her son’s precocity and sensibility.

She wiped away her tears and said gently, “OK, you are the best. I will definitely come to see you.”

They chatted for a while. Vivian didn’t hang up until it was time for Roe to eat.

After the call was ended, John said with regret, “Sorry, it’s all my fault.”

Vivian shook her head and said, “No, I don’t blame you.”

John didn’t speak. There was an unnatural silence in the air.

Vivian did not know what to say and John was slowly subsiding the impulsion caused by grimness and

numbness of last night.

“Last night...”

“Last night...”

They looked at each other, and finally, Vivian smiled and said, “You go first.”

John said without hesitation, “I’m sorry for last night. My mom must have said some terrible words.”

Vivian shook her head and said, “No, I should be the one to apologize. Mrs. Reina is for your own

good, so I can understand. Just at that time, emotions came up, so I was a little impulsive. And I’m

sorry, I didn’t tell you when I left.”

John lowered his eyes and said, “I have been calling you all night.”

There was a flutter in Vivian’s heart.

She didn’t expect that John had been calling her all night.

But she did not receive any call.

Vivian’s eyes turned cold. She took out the mobile phone and double-checked. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Sure enough, there were hundreds of missed calls.

Vivian had a horrible suspicion because she suddenly thought of the strange behaviors of William when

she was looking for his phone to call John last night.
