My dear lawyer

Chapter 407 Are You a Dog?

“Selina!” Vivian was surprised and was about to help when a strong arm stopped her on her waist. She

turned around and saw William with an indifferent look, hard to understand. “What are you doing?

Selina is just a girl.” Vivian said with anger.

“Don’t worry. She’s quite strong. She won’t get hurt.” William laughed.

Selina was the apple of Grace’s eye. If not for her annoying temper, he wouldn’t have kept her out.

“Worrying about others? You’d better worry about yourself.” William sneered, holding Vivian in his

arms.

Vivian bit her lips and cried out, “Let go of me, you jerk. Let go now!” She seemed to smell some

strange perfume around his nose, which reminded her that William and Angie had stayed together in

the study for some time. She felt like vomiting at the thought of that.

One of William’s shoulders hadn’t recovered yet but the other one was strong enough to carry Vivian.

He strode forward despite of her rebellious struggle.

Vivian was still fighting against William who was carrying her even tighter. She was so pissed off that

she bit him on his shoulder hard. William felt the hurt and threw her onto the couch. Bang! Her head hit

on the couch.

“Are you a dog?” William took off his coat and found his shoulder bruised. He knew she was really

angry based on his experience these years.

Vivian stared at him and spitted, “I told you to let go of me!”

William rolled his eyes and asked, “What’s the fight for? If it’s because of Angie, I can only tell you it’s

not the time. As for Roe, I have promised you he will be totally safe. Stop being irrational, Ok?”

“I’m not being irrational. I mean every word of it.” Vivian said word by word and scornfully, “I don’t

believe you.” She must be stupid enough to believe William. How come she had trusted him before?

He should have never had credit with her. She thought to herself and went back to her room before

William had time to argue.

William watched her disappeared in his view for quite a while and finally left in anger.

Mrs. Lucia, William’s mother, was awaken by the noise and came out to see what happened in the

living room. When they all left, she thought of something. Seeing what had just happened, she had

quite a different opinion about Vivian who was gentle yet powerful in some aspects. And it seemed that

she didn’t care about the marriage. It was her son who... Suddenly, she glanced at a small figure,

crouching in a corner. It was so small that she could hardly see if she didn’t see carefully.

Shocked, she called cautiously, “Roe?” The little boy looked up, sad. She felt sorry for him. When the

parents quarreled, kids were the ones who suffer most. She went up to hug him and asked, “Good

Roe, when did you come out?”

“I’ve been here for some time.” Roe was unhappy.

She was worried, “Did you see what happened just now?”

“Yeah.”

She touched his head and comforted him tenderly, “Mom and Dad were just joking. Don’t take it

seriously. Go and have some good sleep. Everything’s gonna be fine.”

“They were not!” Roe argued.

“What?” She was shocked.

“Mom and Dad are always quarreling. Angie is a villain. She had set me up several times and made me

suffer from my illness. Dad is also a bad guy. He said he loved Mom and would take good care of us.

But he’s always with Angie to bully Mom. He’s a liar.”

Mrs. Lucia frowned and asked, “Angie made you suffer from your illness? Who told you that?” She

thought Roe might get this idea from Vivian. Otherwise, how would a little kid, less than 4-year-old

know it.

“Nobody told me. I happened to hear the conversation between Mom and Aunt one day.” Roe

murmured.

“Really?” Mrs. Lucia was astonished and then she asked, “Roe, if Mom and Dad won’t get married,

would you like to stay with Mom or Dad?” She regretted asking such a question. Roe had just called his

Dad a bad guy so his choice was quite obvious.

Not a surprise, Roe replied without hesitation, “I wanna stay with Mom.”

Although she knew that Roe was raised by Vivian, Mrs. Lucia still felt sad. She looked at him with

sorrow and said, “But Dad stays with Grandma. So you wanna leave Grandma?”

Roe seemed to be in a dilemma for a while but then he replied firmly, “I wanna stay with my Mom. And I

will come to visit you when I grow up.” This was a great comfort for Mrs. Lucia.

“Good Roe!” Mrs. Lucia fondled Roe’s head with more tenderness and signed, “What a pity!”

After comforting Roe and sending him to his room, Mrs. Lucia went to William’s room with anger.

William was applying medicine on his wound with one hand. His face looked indifferent without any

change. But as his mother, who was familiar with her son, Mrs. Lucia immediately experienced his

anger.

“Let me help you!” She came over and took his bandage. Blood seeped from the wound on his

shoulder due to his strenuous move just now. Mrs. Lucia signed when touching the swelling wound.

“What’s your plan?” Mrs. Lucia whispered, applying the medicine to his shoulder skillfully. She

continued, “I have been thinking about this since the phone call yesterday. I forgot to ask your opinion.

Do you want to marry Vivian or you just want Roe?” Although he seemed to have been paving the way

for Vivian, it was just out of her guess. Maybe she was wrong about it.

William puffed impatiently. He didn’t want to answer.

“Don’t you dare to keep her as your secrete mistress, do you?” Mrs. Lucia raised her voice.

“Of course not. I’ll marry her.” William answered.

Mrs. Lucia pressed his wound deliberately and said scornfully, “How? In the way you two quarrel or the

way she’s getting a divorce with you?”

What a sore point! William felt annoyed, “Mom, there are some issues that need to be solved. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Otherwise, she won’t break off.” Thinking of the news he just got, he became upset again.

“What do you mean?” Mrs. Lucia looked at him suspiciously.

“You’ll find out.” William said with a sneer.

Mrs. Lucia stared at him, holding back her impulse to hit him on his wound.
