My dear lawyer novel Chapter 469

Vivian rubbed Roe’s head. She mumbled, “It will take a while.”

Then she made an embarrassing switch of the conversation. She served Selina with some food, “This tastes good. Have a try.”

Selina didn’t respond. She got interrupted by the strange look on Vivian’s face.

When they finished dinner, William went to the study for work. Vivian excused herself to show Selina around.

By the time they stepped in a flourishing garden, Selina spoke out her doubts, “Please let me know what happened, Vivi. I feel awkward being kept in the darkness. How did you return to William again?”

Vivian pursed her lips. She hesitated a little before explaining.

Vivian always trusted Selina.

“You mean John’s fiancée tried to bully you? You only met her for a few times. How could she have the thoughts on being vicious to you?” Selina’s eyes dilated with fear.

Then she fumed with indignation, “I thought William would be a good example as a typical playboy. John turned out to be the same!”

“This might not be his fault. No one knows about his fiancée. Maybe it’s just his parents’ wishful thinking.” Vivian tried to exculpate for John.

Selina squinted at her, “Why are you so emotional? I thought you don’t like John. You seem to speak for him now.”

“Are you impressed by his tenderness after all these days?” She tentatively made a spoof.

Vivian replied indisputably, “I think I got moved by him. If someone showed great care to you, you would feel the same as I did.”

“Do you want to marry him?” Selina learned forward and winked at her ambivalently.

Vivian pushed her away, “I decided already. We supposed to get our certificate that day. We were in front of the civil affairs department when he was informed of Mrs. Reina’s hospitalization.”

“No way. That was too bad. Then you just went on with William, since you got nothing to lose now?” Selina made a deep sigh. She felt heartbroken for how tough her good friend had been through.

Vivian rolled her eyes. She seemed to be disorientated as well.

She lowered her head and stretched out for a leaf, “I’m really confused now, Selina. I felt discouraged if I could get Roe’s custody.”

“Though I had similar feeling before, John kept me company at that time. Now I can’t even imagine about it by noticing how limited I am. Maybe it’s time to leave Roe to William. I seem to realize the separation every time I met Roe.” Vivian felt really depressed.

She could already expect how she would react to the judgment.

A flash of warm sunshine came across Vivian’s long hair. It stayed there and cleared the darkness in her mind.

Selina was too bewildering to comfort her.

She knew exactly how important Roe meant to Vivian.

But William wouldn’t easily compromise either.

Roe was his son after all.

Vivian didn’t have much chance to win the lawsuit, compared to William in all respects.
