My dear lawyer

Chapter 294 Faint with Excitement

“So we just go back? I got hurt for nothing?” Angie was irritated immediately. She shouldn’t ask for

Lyle’s help. It was the same if she hired someone else.

Lyle withdrew his hand and rubbed his fingers with interest. He placed them on his lips and licked the

blood from his hand with the tip of his tongue. His eyes were as excited and gloomy as wolves’. “Don’t

worry. The day is still young. I’ll let you vent your anger.”

Watching his abnormal behavior, Angie felt in a dilemma. No, she must return to China first and get rid

of this lunatic.

In the car, Vivian dropped the knife and was eager to see Roe. John hurried to pull her back and said,

“Vivian, calm down and listen to me.”

“John, back off. Back off. Let me see Roe.” At this moment, Vivian wasn’t a bold and decisive woman

anymore, but a worried mother.

“Roe needs more rest. Don’t disturb him.” John knew Vivian was unable to calm down, if he didn’t

exaggerate it.

Hearing that, Vivian sat back, clutched her thighs tightly, straightened her upper body, and asked

anxiously, “How is Roe? Did his surgery succeed? Did he get hurt?”

John shook his head with pity, “No, it failed.”

“Why? Why did it fail?” Vivian sat still with frustration. She had tried her best to contact the hospital,

which agreed to do the surgery, and waited for four years in fear.

What’s more, she tolerated grievances and abuse to get medical expenses from William. It was so

close.

However, Angie destroyed everything. It was like a stab in her heart. Vivian had carried the boy for ten

months and gave birth to him at the risk of her own life.

“No, no, that’s impossible. The surgery must be a success.” At the moment, Vivian couldn’t help but cry.

Tears, mixed with blood, trailed down her cheeks into her mouth, into her stomach.

She was reluctant to let death take away Roe’s life, and she was willing to sacrifice her own life for his

recovery.

Watching Vivian on the verge of collapse, John was heartbroken. “Vivi, Vivi, don’t be afraid. Although

the operation failed, Roe will have another chance, if he recuperates for one year.”

As if grabbing the last straw, Vivian clutched John’s arms tightly, not realizing her nails stabbed into his

skin.

Her eyes were alight with hope. “John, is it true? Roe can have another operation, right?”

John looked gently as if he didn’t feel the pain, and answered with a nod, “Yes. As long as he

recuperates for one year, he can receive the surgery again.”

“One year, just for one year!” Vivian repeated over and over again, her eyes full of hope and joy. Tears

pricked his eyes when John saw her cautious look.

“Yes, Vivi. Let the medical staff treat your wounds first.” John couldn’t bear to watch her face with clear

red marks.

Vivian seemed to not hear it and chortled blankly. “Roe is fine. Roe is fine. Good...”

Before Vivian finished her words, she rolled her eyes and fainted.

“Vivi, Vivi, are you okay?” John was terrified and summoned a doctor at once.

The space in the car was extremely small. It was difficult for the doctor to come over. But he bent his

waist, lifted her eyelids, and heard her heartbeat.

After making sure that Vivian was fine, the doctor explained, “The patient suffered too much mental

strain and relieved suddenly, but her body functions didn’t keep up, so she passed out. She will recover

after a rest.”

John nodded. It was extremely hard for Vivi to persist for so long. If it weren’t for Roe, she would have

fainted earlier.

Even if she passed out, her brows still knitted; her curled eyelashes were still wet.

Staring at her injured cheeks, John felt frustrated. If Vivi hadn’t taken quick actions, it would have been

impossible for them to escape successfully.

This kind of weakness and frustration tortured his pride as a man.

The original apartment wasn’t a shelter anymore. John asked a man to arrange another tranquil and

safe place and lived with Vivian and Roe.

On the other hand, William was ignorant of Vivian’s incident. After he handled the case and tried to

contact that woman, she just vanished without any trace.

He looked for her for several days in vain. And he received calls from China and was urged to return.

In the end, William arranged several men to continue searching for her and returned to China alone

after finishing the case.

After several days of recuperation, Vivian recovered her spirit gradually. But the wounds on her cheeks

were still horrifying.

Although the wounds could be cured with the passing of time, her broken heart couldn’t be healed. If it

weren’t for her obsession with William, Roe wouldn’t have been in such a desperate situation. He

almost lost his life.

Even John, who was innocent, was injured because of her. Although he hid it from her, Vivian knew he

was badly hurt.

All of these were caused by her love for William.

She couldn’t afford to love that man. She couldn’t expect him to know what love was. If she had known

that a slight hope would cost so much, she wouldn’t have entangled with William for so long.

John took good care of her and Roe these days. She was touched. But she didn’t know if this decision

was right.

“Vivi, what are you thinking?” John just entered the room and saw Vivian look out the window in a

trance.

Hearing his voice, Vivian turned around and looked at him. “John, do you regret coming abroad with

me?”

“Why did you suddenly ask that?” John was startled and thought Vivi still felt guilty for the incident. He

comforted gently, “Vivi, clear your mind. You saved us that day. I’m glad to take care of you and Roe.”

Vivian lowered her gaze toward her twisted fingers and said suddenly, “John, let’s get married.”

“What?” Her sudden words petrified John. His agility and wisdom seemed to disappear at once. He Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

stared at her blankly without moving his eyeballs.

What did he hear? Vivi did propose to him. Wasn’t it an illusion caused by fatigue?
