My dear lawyer

Chapter 428 Tadpole-like Words

Vivian got annoyed at once. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

In addition, she felt a little sad.

Vivian admitted that the living condition was not so good for Roe living with her these years in both

material and mental aspects, and she always felt sorry for her son.

But everyone except William should have blamed her for this.

Although she realized William was just joking, she was still hurt, and then she said seriously, “William,

you have no right to say so. Even though I did not provide Roe with a better life, I, unlike you who have

put him in danger so many times, went out of my way to prevent him from dangers.”

The man turned round with amazement in his eyes, as he did not expect that his joking words may hurt

Vivian. He felt a little apologetic.

After hearing Vivian’s remarks, William felt displeased immediately.

It was just her own perspectives that she thought she owed John too much, thus got entangled with

him. What’s more, he took such an unwise decision for the sake of making up for him, the stubborn

woman.

Besides, it was safer to keep Roe with him.

It was a fact which was proven obviously by his ability to cope with the dangerous situation Roe had

encountered.

It was a waste of effort for somebody who was not competent enough to attempt to protect others.

But he didn’t have the heart to tell such words to her.

And maybe nobody agreed.

“So I am compensating Roe.” William explained.

Vivian snorted, “You mean exposing Roe more to Angie?”

“At least she has done nothing bad to Roe since I realized Roe was my son. On the contrary, Roe was

always in danger when he lived with you.” William raised his chin.

Vivian opened her mouth slightly, wanting to retort.

However, she admitted that what William had said was true after thinking it over.

Angie pretended to be well-behaved in front of William. In addition, it seemed like that the kidnapping of

Roe had nothing to do with Angie.

But..

Vivian blinked and still mumbled persistently “After all, it is caused by you.”

The space was not so large in the car. The driver wisely chose to turn a blind eye to the dispute

between Vivian and William.

Roe grabbed Vivian’s clothes tightly without a word, fearing Vivian left because of displeasure.

Thus, William heard the woman’s muttering clearly in such quite atmosphere.

William looked away and fixed his deep eyes on Roe, then caressed Roe’s head, pretending that he

did not hear.

With eyes turning between William and Vivian, who were both in silence, Roe thought it over, then he

moved towards Vivian, holding her arm and said in a sweet voice, “Mummy, the nurse said I don’t have

to take the bitter medicine today, but a few pills.”

Vivian cracked a smile at once, “It means you are better now, and I believe you’ll be well again soon.”

“Yeah. Mummy, Could you please take me to the amusement park when I am well again?” Roe said

with eager eyes.

Vivian was touched.

She knew what Roe desired for.

She had taken Roe to the amusement park, but the games he could play was so few in view of his poor

health that he had to watch others playing most of the time.

For this reason, Vivian seldom took him to such places.

Vivian nodded definitely, “Sure. When you recover, you can do anything you want.”

Roe sank into his mother’s arms without saying anything.

Seeing this, William was a little dissatisfied.

They were a family by blood. Why did they exclude him?

At the thought of this, William pulled Roe from Vivian’s embrace, and said with a straight face, “Be

careful! We’re driving. Just be seated.”

Vivian frowned unhappily, but she didn’t say a word because of his caution.

William selected a fancy restaurant indeed. When they entered, the waiters were hospitable and wore

an appropriate smile, which made the customers feel comfortable.

What’s more, the waiters were so considerate that they introduce zealously some children’s meals for

Roe specially.

Vivian walked behind and she must admit that the living standard of the rich was indeed much higher

than hers regarding this.

“Two of this, and this, and…” William made the order quickly.

After the waiter left with a warm smile, Vivian deliberately found fault with William, “You’re such a

dictator. How do you know we will like the meal you ordered?”

William just stared at her straightly for such a long time that Vivian thought there was something wrong

with her, then he sneered and gave the menu to her.

Vivian took it and then she was dumbfounded.

There were a variety of colorful exquisite pictures on the menu. Besides, the words beside the pictures

were dizzying and tadpole-like, which was hard for her to understand.

Realizing what William did mean, Vivian’s face went red at once.

She was so embarrassed that she just wished to hide herself behind the menu.

William continued, as if he did not notice her embarrassment, “If you don’t like, okay, there are many

kinds of dishes. You can call the waiter and choose whatever you like.”

When he finished, it seemed that he was going to reach out and call the waiter.

Vivian stooped him immediately, “No, it’s fine.”

Then Vivian saw a strange smile on William’s face, and she tried her best to insist, “Now that you have

made orders and it cannot be canceled, we’d better not waste it.”

William cracked a smile and did not continue.

William was quite good at enjoying life. When the appetite-boosting dishes were served, both Vivian

and Roe enjoyed the meal quite a lot.

She supposed this was a well-pleasing meal if they were not interrupted.

“Mr. William, I haven’t seen you for a long time. I didn’t expect to meet you here. What a coincidence!”

A tall woman in a suit appeared next to their desk with a surprised look on her face.

Vivian gave her a look, and her hair was coiled on her head. She wore exquisite makeup, holding a

briefcase, with her back kept straight.

She was a typical business woman.

Besides, it was a quite good-looking one.

At the time Vivian was sizing up the woman, a light flashed in the woman’s sharp eyes when she saw

Vivian which was almost too quickly to grasp.

Contrary to the woman’s enthusiasm, the expression on William’s face was glacial.

He just nodded, “Hello. Miss Caroline.”

“Mr. William, are you on leave? It’s quite surprising since I heard that you are a workaholic.” The

woman said with a relaxed look as if she and William were old friends.

It was uncommon for William’s female acquaintance to talk to him in such a way.
