After Joe left, Mr. Hamilton finally took action, risking his identity. He had resigned long ago, but attended the meeting and vindicated personally.
A pile of crimes were presented. The alternation of power caused turmoil for the entire J city’s top officials.
Of course, the effect was also very obvious.
The first day, William's aunt was set free.
Then, William's father went home.
After that, several people from the Lu family, who had been taken away for investigation but had no news before, came out.
Finally, it was William.
On the day William was released, Vivian got the news in advance. She dressed up and waited for a long time.
Finally, she was told that he had an emergency and couldn't come back.
Her eyes grew pale. Mrs. Lucia couldn't bear it.
"Vivian, the Lu family's turmoil has just ended. William has a lot of work to do, and it is normal for him not to come back at this time. By the way, we haven't been out for a long time. You are ready today, so let's go shopping. We can buy some necessities for the baby in your belly." Mrs. Lucia tried to persuade her.
Vivian didn't have much interest in shopping, but Mrs. Lucia was very happy. So she finally followed her.
She didn't come to J City for shopping very often, so she relied on Mrs. Lucia to give directions.
However, the location where the car stopped at the end did not seem to be a shopping mall.
Vivian looked around doubtfully, "Mom, do you want to buy anything here?"
"I don't want to buy anything, but you want!" Mrs. Lucia laughed.
Before Vivian reacted, she was taken off the car.
As soon as Vivian got off, she turned her head and was stunned.
Not far away stood a man in a black windbreaker, slightly stubbly, with a tired look on his face.
It was only half a month since she had seen him, but he seemed to be mature.
Vivian's eyes were red. She missed him.
William smiled and held her with open arms.
Vivian said in a sobbing tone, "Why don't you go home after coming out? I'm so worried. What on earth do you want?"
"It's my fault. It's my fault!" He said in a tolerant tone, and then his voice was serious, "Vivian, I think a lot in the jail. I wonder if the Lu family can survive this crisis, how we can win Grandpa's approval, and how I can convince you that I love you so much. But finally, I think about how to make your identity right and proper."
Vivian was struck dumb.
William bent down and knelt on one knee, "Vivian, don't you think we also need a marriage certificate?"
Vivian covered her mouth.
She was touched, tongue-tied, and at a loss whether to cry or to laugh.
"William, you're crazy!" She laughed with tears as she said, "No one will propose on a desolate road, with no flowers or diamond ring."
William glanced at Mrs. Lucia, who was watching.
"Of course, we have fresh flowers and diamond ring!" Mrs. Lucia understood immediately, took out a handful of red roses from the trunk and handed to William with a small box.
William opened the box, took Vivian's hand and put on the pink diamond ring, "I started to arrange for it the first day we came to J City. It was lucky to be in time for the proposal."
