The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 77

“Ben…and Vivian, they…”

Mrs. Linderman was too anxious to spill it out.

“What happens to them?”

Mr. Linderman frowned and narrowed his eyes.

“They are…”

Suddenly she had a new idea. She shook her head, “Nothing. I’m just worried, since it’s very late and they haven’t come home now.

Mr. Linderman didn’t suspect a thing. He rolled over and fell back on the bed, murmuring, “Vivian has stayed in school these days. Ben has worked late every day. Of course you couldn’t find them at home now. Don’t worry. Go to sleep. At least don’t wake me up again.”

He fell asleep soon and snored.

Mrs. Linderman sat on the bed and clenched her fists. She had to make a decision as quickly as possible.

To be honest, she was happy with Ben Hawk as her future son-in-law. She knew her husband very well. If she told him about the scandal, he would certainly kick Ben out in no time.

Therefore, she had decided not to tell anyone about it so as to keep Ben as her son-in-law. No matter which daughter of hers ended up with Ben, she would certainly become his mother-in-law one day.

She was tossing and turning in bed the whole night.

The next morning, Mrs. Linderman stopped Vivian when she was about to leave home for school, “Vivian, I’m going to the grocery store downstairs. Why don't we take a walk?”

Vivian held her mother’s arm intimately and leaned on her shoulder, “Great, Mom. Let’s talk a walk.”

Mrs. Linderman was happy that she was such a loving daughter.

They went downstairs together. Mrs. Linderman stopped her at a corner of the stairs and said in a low voice, “Vivian, tell me the truth. When did you become involved with Ben?”

“Mom, what are talking about?”

Shocked, Vivian tried to deny it, “There is nothing going on between us. I don’t understand you’re saying.”

“I saw everything last night. Don’t lie to me. Are you going to sneak around with Ben forever?”
