Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 305

Spencer's POV:

"Who is it?!" I asked angrily. The knocking stopped, and the door suddenly opened and closed. For a moment, I was stunned at the sight of the person who entered.

"What are you doing here?"

"If I hadn't come, you'd only stir up more trouble!" Gemma, my mother, reckoned with her face as white as a sheet.

"What... What's the matter?" I knew very well why she had come here, but I feigned ignorance.

"Did you marry Vivian behind my back?" My mother asked without beating around the bush.

"Yes, I did," I answered frankly. When it came to Vivian, I was honest and upfront.

"You bastard!" My mother slapped me across the face. The pain radiated from my cheek to my entire face, but I remained unfazed.

"If slapping me will make you feel better, go on. Slap me again. I promise I won't dodge."

Being slapped was nothing. I would endure it as long as my mother would not make things difficult for my wife.

"Spencer, why are you so stubborn? That woman doesn't deserve you!" My mother spat while pointing at my nose and looking at me with utter disappointment.

"Who says I don't deserve him?" a familiar voice chimed in. Vivian had pushed the door open and walked into the room gracefully. She was wearing a suit, and a thin chain hung around her neck. Moreover, her long hair was tied up in a tight and neat bun. She had light and delicate makeup, which made her look capable yet, at the same time, charming.

My mother became even more enraged when she saw Vivian. "Spencer, if you look closely, you'll see that some people are uneducated and ill-bred. They even eavesdrop on other people's conversation!"

"Why would I do that?"

Vivian walked up to me and caressed the part of my face that my mother had slapped. "Does it hurt?"

I shook my head, pulled her to my side, and wrapped my arms around her waist.

"You woman, stop being pretentious!" My mother bellowed, infuriated. "If you think that you've succeeded in your plan, think again. You may have my son wrapped around your finger so that you can take advantage of our wealth and property, but you can't fool me."

Vivian snuggled up to me and replied, "I don't care about your property. Spencer and I really love each other."

My mother raised her hand to slap Vivian, but I quickly grabbed her wrist. "Mom, aren't you satisfied yet? You just hit your son. And now, you want to hit your daughter-in-law?"

My mother shook off my hand, her chest heaving violently. She stared at me with a fierce gaze and said with a hint of regret, "How could I have such a disappointing son like you?"

"I just want to be with the woman I love."

"She's just an ordinary woman! After spending some time with her, you'll eventually realize your worth. I'm telling you, you can't be with her. She'll only lower your level."

I remained unmoved and just continued to turn a deaf ear to her dissatisfaction. "That's none of your business."

"Fine. You leave me with no choice. Divorce Vivian, or forget that I'm your mother." My mother gave me an ultimatum. Without waiting for my response, she left in a huff and slammed the door behind her.

Once my mother was gone, I hugged Vivian tightly and reassured her, "Don't let my mother's words get into you. I will never divorce you."

Vivian smiled sweetly at me. "I trust you."

At this moment, Charles suddenly stood up from his seat and rushed out.

Before he could step out, I grabbed his arm and asked, "Charles, what's wrong?"

"James may still be alive," he whispered.
