My dear lawyer

No Self-respect

Vivian’s words are like the final straw to break the camel's back. John's eyes darkened for an instant,

watching William take Vivian away. It seems that a flame in his heart has gone out. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

William left with Vivian in his arms, as if there was no one else present. The party has not started yet,

so their departure had attracted many people's attention.

Soon, what was more noticeable was the expression of John, the host of today's party.

Seeing that people were talking lively about what had happened just now, Mr. Sam pulled John out of

the hall with a green look.

Haylee clenched her fists, feeling aggrieved, but finally followed them helplessly.

At the door of the hall, Vivian exhaled fiercely.

"What's wrong? Feeling uncomfortable?" William said sarcastically.

Vivian gave him a side glance but said nothing.

William stepped forward, suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch her jaw and said, "From now on,

John has his wife. What a woman needs to do is to have some self-respect and not to trouble a man

who already belongs to another woman. Understand?"

"You have known it quite early that I don't care. Otherwise, I wouldn't have sex with you when you just

broke up with Angie. Am I right?" Vivian moved her chin slightly and stared at him angrily.

The expression in William's eyes changed and his sharp eyes and brows were stained with coldness.

He frowned and stared at her stonily, "Vivian, why do you say something like that?"

"Is it wrong to follow your point? You are really hard to please!" Vivian snorted coldly and walked

towards the car parked at the door.

William was depressed. He regretted what he said just now. But seeing that she was unhappy because

of John's engagement, he was very uncomfortable. Any man wouldn't be happy about that, would he

be?

After getting in the car, William wanted to apologize. But seeing that Vivian closed her eyes with an icy

manner as if reluctant to speak, he did not say anything at last.

Finally, Vivian spoke first.

"William, don't ask me to come to such party in the future!" Vivian's voice was a little chilly.

The calmness that William had just held disappeared instantly.

He turned his head to look at Vivian with a long face, "Won't you tell me you still love John? So you're

upset to see him getting married? Are you jealous?"

"Yes, I am sick at heart!" Vivian opened her bleary eyes slightly, with a mixture of complexity and

sadness.

It made William feel oppressed.

Then William heard her complaining, "It has nothing to do with me whether John is married or not. I can

bless him with a smile, but your attitude of not saying anything is really annoying. Also, I am not the

Virgin Mary. It’s awful for me to see a woman who once framed me realize her dream and marries her

beloved man!" Vivian fell into a rage with a scowl.

Actually, she was not angry about John's marriage, but that his bride was Haylee. What she hated most

was not attending his engagement party, but William's sinister intentions.

William looked at her for a while, and then suddenly smiled.

His laughter grew louder and louder, and finally he almost laughed heartily.

Vivian was puzzled with a furrowed brow, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm happy!" William said.

Vivian glared at him. Then he reached out ambiguously to touch her neck, and blew airways into her

ear, "Vivian, I'm very glad you didn't like John."

Vivian didn't know if the surrounding space was too small, or his words lingering in the depth of her

heart, she, in short, felt that her ears were itchy, and this kind of feeling spread to her heart.

Vivian blushed instantly and pushed William away, "I don't know what you are talking about!"

William chuckled, for her shy expression really gave him great pleasure. Unfortunately, Vivian didn't

think there was anything to be happy about.

Once pushed him away, Vivian opened the window and looked outside, trying to dissipate the heat on

her face.

The atmosphere between them seemed embarrassing, but in fact they returned home light-heartedly.

Roe who was eager to see his mother tilted his head and asked, "Mommy and Daddy, didn't you go to

the party? Why did you come back so soon?" Roe's big eyes were full of puzzlement.

Vivian narrowed her eyes and looked back. William immediately forced a ingratiating smile.

Vivian gave him a cold snort, turned around proudly and went to the room, leaving the father and son

staring at each other.

"Daddy, what did you do to anger mom?" Roe asked cautiously.

William shook his head and touched Roe's head, "What do you want to know? It's time to go to bed,

boy!"

"But it's just after nine o'clock, I still want to watch TV for a while." Roe said, dissatisfied.

He has not finished watching the cartoon!

William frowned, "No, it's late at nine. You must go to bed!"

"Why don't you go to bed first?" Roe stiffened his neck and shouted.

William stretched out a hand on Roe's head, turned him around directly and said, "Because I am your

father!"

"You are hegemonic and wrong!" Roe yelled, but still did not escape the fate of being taken upstairs.

After making bed for Roe and watched him fall asleep, William went downstairs.

Mrs. Lucia seemed to have been waiting for him.

William raised his eyebrows and asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"

"Your father is urging me. When do you plan to take Vivian and Roe to City J? He must have noticed

something recently. If he sends someone over, it means the matter has become a big deal. You can

impress him by meeting him in advance."

William became grim-faced for an instant, and nodded carefully, "I know, thank you mom. I'll consider

it."

Mrs. Lucia replied, "By the way, I have to go back tomorrow. I have already booked the ticket.

Remember to tell Roe about it. And I'm not going upstairs."

William was taken aback and asked, "Tomorrow?"

"I've been here for so long that I can't delay any longer. And when you bring Vivian back to City J, there

must be some people who object to it. Since you have made up your mind to get married, I can't just

watch you being forced, can I?" Mrs. Lucia sighed helplessly and gave William a sad glance.

Her son was good, but sometimes he was just too unruly and disobedient.

Now he even chose a wife who would not be accepted by the family.

She could imagine how furious William's father would be when he saw Vivian.

Of course, fortunately, there was still such a variable as Roe. Mrs. Lucia wondered whether he would

become less indifferent for Roe's sake.
