My dear lawyer novel Chapter 297

Vivian was careful. After making sure that Roe didn’t cough anymore, she sat back. When she read his guilt on his face, her heart suddenly hurt. She stroked his cheeks and comforted gently, “Roe, you need to remember that mommy love you the most.”

“Mommy...” Roe muttered. His body was too weak. It was already the limit for him to say so many words after waking up. His eyelids were drooping.

Of course, Vivian knew he was sleepy. She laid his head on the pillow carefully, pulled up the sheet, and said, “Roe, you take a rest. I promise I won’t leave. When you wake up, you’ll see mommy.”

“OK.” Roe glanced at Vivian, reluctant to sleep. But he still closed his eyes obediently.

Vivian didn’t leave. She lay on her side to accompany Roe, her smooth hands stroking his scattered hair. Smelling her, Roe felt cozy and warm and fell asleep gradually.

One week flew. It was time to return home

Concerned about Roe’s health, John even hired one of the doctors who did the operation to go back with them. If there was an emergency, the doctor would be a great help.

Knowing that, Vivian was moved and more determined to marry John.

However, things didn’t go on so smoothly. John’s parents were opposed to the engagement when they knew their future daughter-in-law, abandoned by her parents, was not from a decent family with only an elderly grandmother.

Later, since their son was in his 30s and hated to be pressured to get married, they were afraid that he was gay. So, as long as the candidate was a lady with a blameless record, they would agree to the marriage.

However, they heard that the woman from a poor family had a son. So they fiercely opposed the engagement.

John had a gentle and easy-going personality. But as for his relationship, he was stubborn. His mother was too annoyed to eat for a few days but surrendered in the end.

“You’re Vivian.”

“Miss Reina, I’m Vivian. I’m glad to meet you.” Vivian looked at the noble and elegant woman and knew his mother didn’t like her. For the sake of John, she greeted Vivian reluctantly.

Of course, she didn’t like Vivian. Based on her current condition, even an ordinary family wouldn’t accept the engagement, let alone this high-class one. They cared about dignity more.

But if John insisted, she wouldn’t give up so easily. Otherwise, she was failing him.

Reina flickered over Vivian and looked away. She was indeed a beautiful girl. Unfortunately, she got married once and had a son. That was unacceptable.

“You know whether I’m glad or not. Nowadays, young girls don’t understand what love is. Only one false move, their whole life collapses. It won’t be so simple...”

“Mom!” Hearing his mother’s accusation against Vivian, John furrowed slightly with anger and reminded her emphatically, “It’s the first time Vivi comes to our home. Don’t scare her. She’s your future daughter-in-law.”

“Alas, I did it for your own good.” Hearing her obedient son’s offensive words, Reina felt annoyed inwardly and disliked Vivian more.

Before she married John, Vivian had already caused a disagreement between the mother and son. What if they got married? Probably, she would dominate the family!
