My Billionaire Husband (Vivian and Morris) novel Chapter 27

But her reaction made Issac see her differently.

Issac, who was carrying the takeout, stared at Vivian unblinkingly with his bottomless eyes. At that moment, he felt her grievance and her inside power.

There was even a moment when he seemed to see himself on Vivian.

Because... They were too similar.

"Well, Vivian, let's go inside first." Issac didn't like Yoona before. This time, it even made him disgusted at Yoona's pretension.

He grabbed Vivan's hand, pulled her to him and put his arm around her shoulders.

This action really surprised Yoona and Morris.

"What?"

Yoona covered her mouth in surprise. "Vivian, when... when did you meet Mr.Shaw? He... he..."

Everyone understood her unspoken words.

She meant to say that Issac was a dandy, Houston's well-known good-for-nothing, a black sheep and a playboy.

However, because it was at the engagement party, Yoona did not say anything.

"Yoona, since Miss Mond is your friend, you'd better persuade her to stay away from those unreliable men."

Yoona didn't say anything because she cared about Morris' face and was afraid of stirring up troubles, which made the atmosphere awkward. Unexpectedly, Morris said it directly.

Though he was speaking to Yoona, he kept staring at Vivan and did not look away.

"Morris, perhaps Vivian and Mr.Shaw are just friends." Yoona tried to smooth things over.

"Yah, friend, girlfriend!"

As a man, Issac was keenly aware of Morris' hostility toward him, especially when he kept staring at Vivian.

An idea flashed through Issac's mind when he thought of their meeting at the Shades Club that day, but he felt that it was unrealistic.

"I forgot to introduce to you."

Issac was willing to acknowledge her as his girlfriend in order to protect her. Even her face was so "ugly", he still protected her against others' ridicule.

No matter how hard-hearted Vivian was, she would still be moved.

She held Issac's hand. "Issac Shaw, my boyfriend."

"Your... your boyfriend?"

Although Yoona knew that Issac was a well-known playboy, he was still the young master of the Shaw family, one of the four big families in Houston. He actually liked Vivian!.

And she has such an ugly face!

What magic portion exactly did that bitch Vivian use? She was angry, but she pretended to be concerned and said, "Vivian, I know that you have a hard life. You have to work part-time to deliver takeout and earn money for your parents treatment. Although it's hard, you can't take a shortcut like a fool."

The word "shortcut" was used very cleverly.

Everyone present was smart. Who didn't know the implication of that word?

"Shortcut? It depends on whether she has the capability."

Morris said coldly, as if he was mocking her.

Then, he said, "There are so many beauties around Mr.Shaw. You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror."

"That's right. This woman is too stupid."

"She's so ugly to be looked at. How could she even believe that Issac Shaw would like her."

"Perhaps Issac Shaw has seen too many beauties, so he wants to have an ugly woman to whet his appetite, hahaha."

"It makes sense, it makes sense."

...

There was another round of discussion among the onlookers.

"Issac? What are you doing? You unfilial son, you humiliate me every day!"

Suddenly, a scolding voice arose.

The voice came before he arrived.

Everyone made way for him. A man with grey hair at the temples came in.

He was in a suit. Although with grey hair at the temples, he was in high spirits and his steps were vigorous. His serious face was full of threatening majesty.

"Is that Old Mr. Shaw?"

"Issac is the most disappointing youngest son of the Shaw family. I'm afraid that Quintel Shaw would die of anger if he knew about Issac."

"Who would say no?"

"If it were me, I would be angry, not to mention Old Mr. Shaw."

...

Hearing their whispers, Vivian then knew that the man walking over was Issac's father.

Vivian couldn't help but gasp.

Just now, when Issac stood here alone, she thought that he came here on behalf of the entire Shaw family. After all, it was just an engagement party.

Who knew that Old Mr. Shaw would come himself?

How could this end?

"Dad?"

Looking at the man walking to him, Issac greeted in a really cold way, but he did not let go of Vivian's shoulder.

Quintel Shaw's eyes widened in anger as he glanced at Vivian. His slightly white brows suddenly furrowed as he said, "It is the engagement party between Morris and Miss Mond. What are you up to?"

He then pointed at Vivian. "Don't you think have made enough stupid mistakes? You're having an ugly 'human' to embarrass yourself."

The corners of Vivian's mouth twitched slightly. She knew that she had caused Issac great trouble. She couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

While Yoona, who was standing beside, had an imperceptible complacency in her eyes.

Morris stood aside and remained silent.

"Dad, it's too much to judge a person by his appearance."

Issac grabbed Vivian's hand and said, "Although Vivian looks plain, she doesn't rob or steal. She works hard to earn money and feed her parents lying in the hospital. How can she be so shameful? Her appearance was given by her parents. Does she have to die because of her plain appearance?"

"You...!"

Quintel Shaw didn't expect that Issac would talk back to him for an extremely ugly woman. "You're so self-righteous. You're still spending my money drinking and swinging outside. This woman's parents are in hospital, but she is hanging around with you instead of looking after her parents. Don't you know what her intention?"

"That's right, Mr.Shaw. She must be aiming for money."

"But Mr.Shaw doesn't lack money."

"Who knows?"

"She is so extraordinary that she can attract Mr. Shaw even though she is ugly."

"A strong taste..."

...

The onlookers laughed and felt that today's attendance was worthy. They watched another "play".

"I don't care her intention, as long as I'm willing." Issac protected Vivian to the end.

As soon as he finished his words, Morris' face showed obvious displeasure.

Yoona didn't say anything and just watched quietly. She wished that Old Mr. Shaw could help her deal with Vivian.

In such a tense situation, Morris did not say that he would stand up and help Vivian. It was for sure that that bitch was nothing to Morris.

Everything was heading in the best direction for her.

"You never make, but always break. If your mother hadn't died early, I would have driven you out of the family."

When Quintel Shaw mentioned Issac's mother, Vivian suddenly felt Issac holding her hand tightly.

He exerted a lot of strength, as if his weakness had been touched, and he was suppressing the anger in his heart.

"Then should I thank you?"

"You..." Quintel Shaw still wanted to say something, but he noticed that Morris, who was standing beside, did not look well, so he had to give up. "I'll deal with you when I get back."

He snorted and entered the banquet hall.

Without a good show to watch, everyone entered the banquet hall.

Issac pulled Vivian to one side and hid in the crowd.

At the beginning of the engagement banquet, the host gave a speech. Madame Cheal and Phu Yen Lee and his wife also stood up and made speeches. Yoona also told the story of their romance out of accident with Morris, which aroused everyone's envy.

Then it was time for dinner.

Ever since Vivian found out that she was pregnant, she had begun to suffer pregnancy vomiting. Seeing the greasy lunch on the table, she covered her mouth in disgust. "Issac, you sit for a while. I'll go to the washroom."

She got up and went to the washroom. There were many people on the second floor, and it was very crowded. Vivian then ran to the third floor.

"Ugh... ugh..."

There was no one in the washroom on the third floor. She retched for a while before throwing up.

After a while, she went to the basin and washed her hands. She took some water with both hands and took a sip to rinse her mouth.

She turned around and walked outside. When she passed the lounge, the door suddenly opened. Before she could react, she was dragged in and pressed against the wall.
