My dear lawyer novel Chapter 399

Alexander soon left it all behind.

Since Mrs. Lucia noticed that he was William’s assistant, she asked kindly.

“We understand how busy William is. We don’t want to bother him either. But we were just informed of our grandson’s presence lately. It is definitely William’s fault that he didn’t mention about it.” Mrs. Lucia seemed to blame her son on this, but with full approval on the grandson she hadn’t met yet.

Alexander didn’t suspect her at all. Unlike those pompous rich ladies, William’s mom was more polite and easy-going.

So he responded, “You can’t reproach William for this, Mrs. Lucia. It was an accident. William didn’t realize that he had a son either until a while ago. It was also hard for Vivian to bring up Roe alone.”

“Really? So she didn’t know Roe was William’s son? How could Roe suffer with her? Did she think the Lu Family couldn’t afford to raise a child?” Mrs. Lucia pretended to be displeased.

Alexander was stunned. He was worried after realizing what she meant.

He thought they were having a casual conversation rather than being fished by Mrs. Lucia.

Alexander had worked at the law firm for a long time; therefore, it was not surprised for him to figure it out.

For Mrs. Lucia to have a better impression of Vivian, Alexander explained in a hurry, “Vivian is not what you think. She is a nice girl. William was dating Miss. Angie all the time. All Vivian could do was to hide the existence of Roe. She wouldn’t reveal it until Roe relapsed.”

Mrs. Lucia was confounded at the moment. She didn’t expect the truth to be like this.

From what Alexander said, William seemed to be a playboy.

He didn’t take responsibility for Vivian. When dating with Angie, he didn’t learn about the existence of Roe either. Now he could just take Vivian home openly after knowing everything?

Obviously William was a downright scumbag!

Women were likely to be impulsive sometimes, but they also knew each other the best. Mrs. Lucia was rational enough to judge William on these things.

William seemed to be irresponsible for either of them.

Noticing Mrs. Lucia’s silence, Alexander started to talk again, “You will find out how nice Vivian is after you meet her, Mrs. Lucia. I think William still love her. It is all because of Miss. Angie…”

“Well, I was afraid of him ending up alone. Now he turns out to be popular among women.” Mrs. Lucia sighed.

Alexander suppressed something in his mind.

Miss. Angie might be the murderer who tried to kill Roe.

In the manor, Vivian woke up in a daze. Someone was talking on the phone. She was familiar with the aloof and gentle tone, but she wondered who was on the other side of the phone.

Shortly, that man left with the door clicked.

Vivian struggled a bit, but she was too tired, drowsy and fell asleep again.

When she woke up for the second time, it was almost nine a.m.

She changed her clothes. By the time she went out, Roe was having breakfast on a chair.

“Why did you get up so late?” Roe looked at Vivian curiously.

Vivian thought Roe despised her for being late. So she turned to William with blames in her eyes.

William took a piece of toast and applied peanut butter on it slowly. He didn’t notice Vivian’s glance towards him.
