My dear lawyer novel Chapter 328

Vivian was squatting down on the ground when John rushed to the hospital. She glued at the operating room with hands locked together on her chest.

The blood on the ground had already coagulated into dark red. Roe’s exposed toes turned out. All those wounds were shocking.

John felt his heart almost stopped that moment. He was even afraid of moving close to her or she would just fall to pieces.

“It’s all right, Vivi. Don’t worry, I’m with you.” John cradled her into his arms. He trembled unconsciously when he noticed her bloodshot eyes and faint breath.

At least, at least she was alive.

Once being informed, John left all the works behind. He ran through red lights and dumped the car when arrived.

He simply found Vivian following the blood on the ground without even asking. For the first time, an urbane man like John had the urge to murder someone when he saw those flecks of blood.

It seemed that Vivian was already senseless to John. She looked at John with her eyes no longer being bright anymore. Her voice was hoarse, full of vicissitudes and helplessness.

“Roe, where is Roe...”

John swept his eyes over the red light of ICU room and responded gently, “Roe is still in the operating room and he will be back soon. Don’t worry! Let’s take care of your wounds first.”

“No, I am not going anywhere. I’m staying here for Roe.” Vivian grabbed John’s sleeve tightly with full restlessness and terror in her eyes, as if Roe would disappear if she let it go.

Vivian didn’t know how long she had been squatting here. Her thigh felt numb if she moved a little. If John didn’t prop her up, she would already fall on the ground. Even so, Vivian didn’t let John go.

“Roe will be alright right, John? He will be fine. He is only four years old. Why he have to suffer all of these? This is all my fault.”

Vivian released her uninjured arm, slapped her face with all strength over and over again. She kept blaming herself, “I made all the mistakes. Roe didn’t need to suffer all of these for me.”

It was too late for John to stop her. Vivian’s face blushed a lot. He snuggled Vivian fondly and distressed before she kept fretting herself.

“Please don’t hurt yourself anymore, Vivi. Don’t take all the responsibility for something you didn’t do.”

“It is... it’s all because of me...” Vivian sniffed finally. The guilt and blame filled her up. She could scarcely breathe. The more she struggled, the more she got gripped by these feelings.

“If I had paid more attention when I was pregnant, he wouldn’t be born prematurely with a heart disease. He was in great danger last time, just like this.”
