After the trip to Thailand, Quentin had refused to get a divorce, and…Amanda had taken Quentin and Vivian to court for adultery.
Vivian was stunned to hear the news and she had lived in panic and fear ever since.
Ben Hawk hadn’t planned to come back home with Vivian, but he had changed his mind when he learnt that Joey and Allen were at home now.
When he saw Joey in Allen Charles’s arms, he couldn’t help feeling jealous and resentful.
No one noticed anything strange about him, because Mrs. Linderman was the center of their attention right now.
Vivian helped her mother to her feet and looked at Mr. Linderman with cold eyes, “Dad, you shouldn’t have beaten her so badly, no matter what she has done. You may divorce my mother because of Joey if you want to. But I guess my mother won’t be the only to walk out on you. You will never see me again!”
Mr. Linderman had been very nice to her, too. But Vivian somehow felt that he had always been a lot nicer to Joey. Thus deep down in her heart, she had felt closer to her mother in the same way Joey had felt with Mr. Linderman.
Therefore the family was divided into two groups, with Joey and Allen on Mr. Linderman’s side against Vivian and Ben Hawk on Mrs. Linderman’s side. It was quite a show, and the audience was totally fascinated by it.
They found it more exciting than any hit TV shows.
“You…you…”
Mr. Linderman stared at Vivian and was heartbroken by what she had said. She was practically forcing him to give in and forgive Mrs. Lindnerman. He was suddenly saddened by the fact that his own daughter turned out to be so ignorant and unprincipled. He found it hard to breathe. He finally closed his eyes and fainted.
“Dad…”
“Mrs. Linderman…”
Joey and Allen cried out in surprise and hurriedly caught Mr. Linderman in time.
“Honey…”
“Dad…”
