The Contract Marriage

Chapter 318 Either Go To Jail Or Come To See Me

But no matter how sad she was, she had no choice but to turn around and leave the meeting room. Her heart aching as she returned home.

When she walked in, she saw her husband lying on the sofa gloomily. When he saw her walk in, Vivian’s father immediately sat up from the sofa and looked at Mrs. Holmes to ask.

"Wife, you saw Vivian?"

Mrs. Holmes looked at her husband and then sighed heavily. She walked to the sofa and sat down tiredly. She looked at the front with a disappointed face and nodded. "Yes. . . I saw Vivian. Sigh. . . It had only been half a month and she had lost a lot of weight. She is no longer as energetic as before. . . I really feel heartache when I see her. . ."

Mrs. Holmes thought of her daughter's impoverished appearance and her tears could not help but flow down.

"Sigh. . . In that kind of place, it is hard not to lose weight even if you want to." Mr. Holmes shook his head in pain. He reached out his old hand to pick up the cigarette on the coffee table and lit it up. He took a few deep breaths and then spat out a cloud of smoke.

"If Vivian had a good life in Cooper Family, how could she have fallen to this stage? Sigh. . ." Mrs. Holmes could not stop her tears as she spoke.

"You still have the nerve to say! When Vivian did this kind of thing back then, you should not have kept it from me. If I knew that there was such a thing going on, I would not have let her do it no matter what! This is a heartless thing. You are so old but your brain is also muddled, right? Now it's good. After all

the trouble, my daughter has ended up like today. You should be satisfied now, right?" Mr. Holmes couldn't help but complain when he thought about Vivian.

He only knew about this after he saw it on TV. If he had known that Vivian had done such a thing, he would have stopped her no matter what!

But now, it was all too late!

Mrs. Holmes listened to her husband's words and could not help but feel injustice for Vivian. "You still have the nerve to blame me? Where did you get the money for your usual treatment? Wasn't it all given to you by Vivian? She also did that to let our family live a good life. And that Julian, he thought of ways to divorce Vivian. If Vivian did not do that, she would still be chased out by the Cooper Family!"

Mr. Holmes raised his eyebrows and stared at his wife. He shouted, "Yes! My daughter gave me the money to treat my illness! She also paid for the expenses at home! She wants our family to live a good life. But even if Julian wanted to divorce her, if such a thing doesn't happen, the Cooper Family won’t have turned their backs on you! It's just that you are too greedy!”

“You still have the nerve to speak up for her. Our family has been living this kind of bitter life since Vivian was young. In the past, when Vivian didn't marry into the Cooper Family, did we all starve to death? Did we all go begging on the streets? With the wealth of the Cooper Family, even if they divorced, the compensation wouldn't be less than that of an ordinary family. Wouldn't it be fine as long as they lived a good life? Look at what she has done. She wants the entire Cooper Group. She is digging her own grave by feeding Julian sleeping pills! You should have stopped her a long time ago. Even if she didn't listen to you, you should have told me.”

“Before such a big problem happened, you clearly knew that you daughter had done something wrong,

but you still hid it for her! I see that Vivian's fate today has something to do with you!"

Ever since Vivian's accident until now, every time Mr. Holmes talked about this matter with his wife, he could not help but get angry.

"Yes! What you said makes sense! My daughter's fate today was all because of her own fault! She deserved it! Wouldn't it be more comfortable to say it like this? Are you happy?" Mrs. Holmes stood up angrily and quickly went to Vivian's room. Once she walked in and closed the door, her heart ached and her tears rolled down again.

She stumbled to Vivian's bed and looked at the picture of Vivian on the table. She reached out to take it and gently caressed it. "Vivian. What do you think Mom should do? Your dad also blames me. What should I do?"

She thought about what Vivian had said to him in the meeting room and then remembered her expectant gaze. Mrs. Holmes was in a dilemma.

In fact, from the moment Vivian was in trouble until now, she could not say what she regretted. But no matter how much she regretted, her daughter had already been sentenced. Even if she had to come out, it would be six years later.

However, when she thought about the Cooper Family being happy and her daughter suffering in the prison, she still felt somewhat unwilling!

Why did Julian abandon her daughter and live a happy life with Ruby? Why did her daughter deserve to be imprisoned for six years?

No way!

Absolutely not!

If her daughter were to spend six years in prison, then she would make the people of Cooper Family's heart ache for six years!

No one knew Stephen's true identity now. As long as she could get the child, she would take him away from this place in the future! If that happened, the people of the Cooper Family would also feel their hearts ache!

Mrs. Holmes looked at her daughter's photo and gritted her teeth slightly. "Vivian, Mom will not let you suffer for nothing. No matter what, Mom will get that child! I want to let the people of Cooper Family taste the pain of losing their child!"

…

Ever since Vivian was sent to prison, Hannah had been living in fear every day. She originally wanted to resign and leave. But the Cooper Family lacked manpower. When she mentioned that she wanted to leave, Sarah raised the salary of all the servants by 1,000 yuans.

Adding on the original salary, even if she went to other people's homes to help with the work for a few more years, she might not even be able to get such an amount of money. Due to the temptation of money, she could not help but stay.

Hannah kept comforting herself in her heart. Anyway, Vivian had already been arrested. Furthermore,

she had also divorced Julian. In the future, Vivian would no longer have any relationship with the Cooper Family.

Thinking about this, she felt much more at ease in her heart. Only then did she have a clear conscience and stay in the Cooper Family.

During this period of time, the atmosphere in the Cooper Family had become better and better. She had also been influenced by it. Actually, before Vivian appeared, she had always felt good here. But ever since Vivian came, the atmosphere in the house had changed very much. Now Sarah had become the mistress of the house. The atmosphere in the house was very good every day, making her more and more reluctant to leave.

But for her, these days were not good for long. On the twentieth day after Vivian was imprisoned, she received a call from a stranger. Because what happened previously had left her with lingering fears, when she saw that it was an unknown number, she immediately hung up.

Fortunately, it was ten o'clock in the morning. There was no one else in the living room except Old Master Cooper, but she still felt guilty. She took her phone and went back to her room. She closed the door and walked to the window, closing the window tightly. She found the number and dialed it again.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" Hannah quickly asked as soon as the other person answered. She wanted to confirm the other person's identity as soon as possible to prevent herself from being nervous.

"I am Vivian's mother. You are Hannah, right?" The voice of Mrs. Holmes came from inside.

Hannah's hand trembled and she hurriedly covered her phone. She looked around in horror and felt

nothing unusual. She then fearfully put the phone back to her ear and asked in a low voice, "Auntie, What's the matter?"

Actually, her first reaction was to hang up the phone, but she was also afraid of missing something important. So she picked up the phone uneasily.

"I'll get straight to the point. You know very well about Vivian changing her child. If you don't want to go to jail, you can meet me this afternoon! If you don't come, don't blame me for turning against you!" Mrs. Holmes knew that if she did not take out her trump card at this time, Hannah would definitely not give in.

"Then. . . Then. . . Then let me think about it. . ." When she heard Mrs. Holmes's words, Hannah was so scared that she swallowed her words. Her heart was in a mess and her hand that was holding the phone was also trembling. But she did know about this matter. And she was involved in some of the details. When she heard Mrs. Holmes say that she would be sent to prison, she immediately became afraid.

"What are you considering about this kind of thing? Let me tell you! Either you go to jail for a few years like Vivian, or you come and see me!" Mrs. Holmes's tone did not allow any rebuttal.

"That. . . Alright then. . . But where should I go to see you?" Hannah's heart was beating rapidly but she also knew that Mrs. Holmes had something to use against her now and she had no choice but to compromise for the time being.

"You go to the beach this afternoon. See you at the square by the beach!" Mrs. Holmes did not wait for Hannah to speak before quickly withdrawing her line. She did not give her any chance to regret.

Listening to the phone turn into a blind sound, Hannah clenched the phone tightly and looked in front of her in fear. Her body went limp and collapsed onto the floor.

Thinking about what Mrs. Holmes just said, if what she did was really exposed and she was sentenced to prison, then wouldn't her life be completely over?

No!

Absolutely not! All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Her life had only just begun. Up until now, she did not even have a boyfriend. She had yet to properly enjoy her life!

She couldn't just ruin her life like this!

No!

Absolutely not!

But what Vivian did had already been exposed. What she did in the future, would she also be discovered?

Other than Vivian, the only person who knew what she did was Mrs. Holmes. As long as Mrs. Holmes did not let her do anything extreme, perhaps she could escape from disaster!

In the entire morning, Hannah spent her time in a state of unease. Even when the butler asked her to

go to the basement to get things, she took the wrong things. She ran three times before bringing the right thing up.

"What is wrong with you today? Why are you so absent-minded when doing things?" The butler looked at Hannah in front of him and frowned as he sized her up.

Hannah immediately shook her head in panic and looked at the butler as she squeezed out a smile, "I have nothing to do. I just miss home a little. "

The butler heard her words and smiled. "So many things have happened during this period of time, so I did not let you to go back to your hometown. If you really want to go home, when Chairman Cooper is discharged in two days, I will tell Young Madam to let you go home and take a look first."

"Thank you, Mr. Garcia. You are so good! Actually, I don't really have much to say. I'll be fine in two days. By the way, I want to go out this afternoon to buy some things for my family and send them back. Is that okay?" Hannah took this opportunity to discuss with Mr. Garcia.

Mr. Garcia nodded his head readily. “Okay! Anyway, Lea and I are at home. You can go!"

"Thank you, Mr. Garcia!" Hannah immediately replied sweetly.

"You are really sweet. Go and get busy. . ." Mr. Garcia smiled and looked at her before turning around to get busy again.
