My dear lawyer novel Chapter 388

In the hospital.

When Vivian returned with some food, Roe was sitting on the sickbed and watching TV. A female nurse beside served him with all the required items, which made him look like a master.

Unexpectedly, the little nurse was full of glee, evidently showing that she was very fond of Roe.

“Roe, it’s time to have lunch. Look, mommy bought a lot of goodies for you.” Vivian showed him the package in her hand.

It was definitely hearty.

There were fruits and some snacks that Roe regularly enjoyed but rarely got.

“Mommy!” Roe grinned excitedly.

The nurse stood up and left with an amicable smile to Vivian.

Vivi personally changed Roe’s outfit and laid out the food she had bought.

“Look, what do you like to eat? I bought so much.” Vivian put all the food that Roe liked in front of him.

It didn’t change the fact that Roe was only a child, although he was a little mature. His eyes were shining with excitement as soon as he saw the comestible. He took a steamed creamy custard bun and buried himself in it.

The little boy squinted his eyes with satisfaction for the tasty food. His eyes were as soft as an angel with flecks of sunlight fell down on him.

It was not the first time Vivian has felt this way. Sometimes she wondered why William exudes a marble-hearted streak, as a dragon emerging from a freezing pond, whereas Roe was like an angel, though they look like two peas in a pod.

More than once she conspiratorially speculated that it was because William had an unfortunate childhood and family and he became mentally murky.

Even though they had been together for four years, she had never heard him talking about his family.

“But it could also be that I’m not qualified to know it. Who would expose their privacy to an inconsequential bedmate?” Vivian thought.

“Mom, It’s too much for us.” Roe’s voice woke up Vivian from her drifting thoughts.

Vivi lifted her eyes, held a box of fried noodles in her hand and shook her head, “It’s Ok. Today is special, so you can choose the items you like.”

She used to teach Roe he could not be choosy about what he ate, and tried to waste as little as possible. Most of the time, he told her in advance how much he wanted to eat.

So, Roe has developed a very good dietary habit.

However, it was not Roe’s true purpose obviously.

The little boy skewed at Vivian cautiously, pecked at his custard bun and muttered, “We don’t know if Da…Uncle William has had lunch.”

Well, Roe wanted to have lunch with dad. But he dared not speak his mind when he thought of what Vivian told him before.

Vivian bit her chopsticks with some indignation.

They have only known each other for a short time, and they were already thinking of each other. Was this the so-called bloodline, the nature of father and son?

Well, the genes of William are truly powerful.

“Don’t worry! A lot of people are taking care of him. It's impossible for him to skip meals. Just feed yourself.” Vivian poked the noodles in the bowl and said bitterly.

Suddenly, the fried noodles in her mouth were tasteless.

“Ah.” Roe murmured.

After a while, Roe looked up again, "Mom, it's pathetic for William to have lunch alone."

Vivian put down her chopsticks and stared at him: "You’d like to eat with him, wouldn’t you?

Her serious eyes made Roe feel guilty unconsciously.

Roe didn’t respond.

Vivi frowned, “Roe, do you really like Wi…Dad?”
