Chapter 468 Disappointed!
John was heartbroken. He knew no matter what he said, he wouldn’t be able to give Vivian a
satisfactory answer. He could quarrel with his parents, even broke up with his parents for Vivian, but he
couldn’t send them to jail because of Vivian, let alone to make his proud father, whom he was also
proud of, apologize to Vivian.
John rubbed his face and said, “I know you suffered a lot in this accident. But I have no better solution.
This person is as important as you are to me. I will make it up to you in other ways. I promise you I will
do whatever you want me to do as long as I can make it, ok?”
“Why are you still with me, when this person is so important to you?” Vivian asked instantly in a slightly
high voice. She closed her eyes, trying to forget this, and said, “John, I know there’s a deep bond
between you two as you have grown up together. Maybe you had a crush on each other. If it’s hard for
you to forget each other, you two should be together. I don’t want to meddle in your relationship. I have
committed so many mistakes in my life.” Her issue with Angie was her lifelong regret. Now she felt she
was such a loser with the revenge from Haylee. She felt like being punished by God. Angie and William
could have been a perfect match as well as Haylee and John. And she shouldn’t even exist at all. In
that case, she wouldn’t have meddled in their relationships and been punished by God. Vivian thought
to herself.
John was confused, but he felt that Vivian was referring to Haylee. He frowned, “Vivi, is there any
misunderstanding?”
“Nope. I know everything from A to Z now.” Vivian replied.
“But”
“What are you doing under the strong sunlight when you haven’t recovered?” William asked, frowning
at them in a classic black suit not far away. He sounded so cold that she felt the temperature was
cooled down by his voice.
Vivian knew he was unhappy, so she came up to him and said, grabbing his shoulder, “Let’s go.”
“Vivi!” John cried out sadly.
Vivian stopped for a second, but didn’t respond to him. William smiled contently. It did require some
skills to pursue girls.
They were finally in the manor. And this time, Selina was not kept out, so she got to visit this manor,
which was mysterious to many people. It was super large at the first sight and super luxurious at the Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
second glance.
Selina was so amazed at such a wonderful manor that she asked Vivian secretly, “Are you sure William
didn’t rob the bank? How come he is soooo rich?”
“It’s said to be handed down from the older generations. As for the details, I have no idea either,” Vivian
said absent-minded.
Selina frowned and asked, “Are you still thinking about John? What happened to you guys? Did I miss
anything?”
Vivian hesitated for a second and then she asked, “You are familiar with the people from John’s family.
Have you ever heard anything about John’s fiancée?”
Selina thought carefully for a second and replied, “I haven’t heard about fiancée. But I did know there
was a girl called Haylee, whom Mrs. Reina seemed to be fond of. That’s all I know about her. Although
my Dad is highly respected, he despised attending business banquets as he works for the government.
Thus, I don’t get contact with them frequently.”
John was from a merchant family with money and social relations, while Selina was from a political
family. No wonder Selina had no idea of the details as she and John were of different circles.
Vivian nodded without asking more questions.
Selina understood why Vivian asked such a question, so she asked, “Did John really have a fiancée?”
Vivian nodded, touching the scars on her shoulder and said, “These wounds are due to her.”
“What?” Selina shouted, which made everyone look towards her.
William looked unhappy and Roe looked curiously, widening his eyes. Vivian was about to explain
when Mrs. Lucia came in elegantly.
“You are finally home. Come in. The meal is served.” Mrs. Lucia smiled, warmly and elegantly.
Vivian was surprised and before she could respond, Mrs. Lucia took her in, holding her arms, and
explained, “I planned to visit you when William told me you were in the hospital. But I got delayed
recently. Thank goodness you are finally discharged from the hospital.”
Vivian smiled, not taking her words seriously. She understood Mrs. Lucia was nice to her just because
she indulged her son and she was a better person than Mrs. Reina. Frankly speaking, she didn’t think
Mrs. Lucia was nice to her from the bottom of her heart. Instead, she would think that Mrs. Lucia was
just being polite.
In fact, Mrs. Lucia was totally wronged. Someone leaked out the news that she was in Jin’an, so many
people came to ask her for help. She was so annoyed that she could only pretend being ill and stayed
at home.
“The doctors are already working on the surgery plan for Roe. But Roe is so weak now, he needs some
good rest first. He can have the surgery after some time when he’s in better condition.” At the table,
Mrs. Lucia explained to Vivian about Roe’s condition while shelling shrimps for Roe. She surely knew
what Vivian was most concerned about Roe, as she herself was a mother too.
Vivian was really interested in this topic, as she could tell from the light in her eyes. Soon they talked
pleasantly. Vivian even wished to check every test result of Roe. William sat beside her, not talking too
much. He occasionally shelled a shrimp for her, which she didn’t notice.
Selina, who came to scrounge a free meal, looked like a stranger, biting her chopsticks.
“Vivian, when’s Roe’s case is due for the court session?” Selina asked, glancing at William.
William looked unhappy. The sweet atmosphere that Mrs. Lucia managed was all ruined. Vivian felt
awkward and worriedly looked at Roe, who inevitably lowered his head with sadness.
“It looks like Grace didn’t teach you well,” William said coldly.
Selina suddenly blushed. She also felt it inappropriate when she asked, but it was too late to retract her
words. All right! It was all her fault. Vivian coughed and said something else, trying to help Selina out.
