My dear lawyer novel Chapter 415

Mrs. Reina almost fainted with great anger upon hearing John’s words.

She just can’t understand how Vivian, the fox, could have seduced her son.

Considering Vivian’s humble background, lower academic qualifications and her own insufficiency, Mrs. Reina held that the woman and her son were different kind of person from different worlds, so she could by no means hold a candle to Haylee.

Even though Vivian was sort of attractive in looks, she was nothing at all in John’s life where there were beauties of all sorts.

“Boy! You really pissed me off!” she shouted with a tremulous voice.

Faced with the irritation of his mother, John fell into silence.

He also suffered a lot.

On one hand, he could not erase Vivian from his memory who he thought he had driven out of his mind during the long period when they had no contact with each other. Furthermore, he was captivated by her as happened before when they met again.

On the other hand, he was plagued by the belief that he shouldn’t let his parents down, since they was dedicated to bringing him up with their deepest love and the most sincere blessing in spite of painstaking efforts.

For a while, after short gasps to calm down, Mrs. Reina said patiently, “John, you’re too young to be equipped with enough experience towards love, so it’s reasonable for your lower resistance to the allure. However, you should not allow such a woman to ruin your whole life just because of the short-lived affection. Ahead the long journey of your life is full of opportunities.”

His mother’s shift from earlier aggression to sincere words and earnest wishes made him tortured more by the self-reproach.

He’d rather that she scolded him severely.

His fingers lingered on the materials prepared earlier which were for the use of marriage certificate with Vivian when his parents took no notice of it.

A gust of wind brushed his hair from his forehead, concealing the gloom in his eyes.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he glimpsed a photo lying behind the computer table in secret, in which Vivian, in a white dress, was smiling brightly.

Feeling a surge of love for the lady, John took a deep breath and said firmly, “I’m so sorry, mom.”

“John, what am I going to do with you?” Mrs. Reina sighed with frustration, half crying, which made him agonized as if an intangible hand was grasping his heart violently.

As he couldn’t bear to continue, he gritted his teeth and said with a grim look, “I have to hang up.”

Before Mrs. Reina could say a word, the phone call was cut off.

Her face darkened when she heard the sound signifying the end of the call.

At this time, Mr. Sam came down the stairs, wearing gold-rimmed spectacles and a suit, looking like a cultivated gentleman.

“Are you speaking to John?” he asked.

Restraining her apparent displeasure, she spluttered, “John gets more and more disobedient for the sake of such a fox that he should turn a deaf ear to what I said!”

Generally speaking, Mr. Sam was seldom involved in his son’s love affairs, but he kept it in mind these days, thanks to his wife’s frequent references. At the moment, a glimmer of light flickered in his eyes behind the glasses, and he inquired, “Do you mean the woman with a child?”

“Of course! How could such a woman be a part of our family? I don’t even expect John select an educated and cultivated lady of equal status, but a lady from a respectable family as a minimum. How could he been enchanted by a mother with a four-year-old son! If they get married eventually, what shall we do to uphold our family’s dignity and honor?” Mrs. Reina clenched her teeth and said bitterly.

She had a strong feeling of dislike and dissatisfaction with Vivian based on her investigation, even if they had never met before.

Sick of his wife’s hysterics, Mr. Sam frowned slightly but nodded to show his knowledge, “I see.”
