My dear lawyer novel Chapter 384

"Mom, I don't want to sleep now. I want to watch TV." Seeing Vivian was going to get him to sleep, Roe pulled her by the sleeve immediately.

Roe knew his mother would leave when he fell asleep, but he loved the feeling when his mother was around.

Vivian saw through Roe's mind and rubbed his little head. She promised, "Don't worry. I will not leave. I will just stay here and accompany you. So have a rest after watching TV. Ok?"

"Yes" Roe nodded and let her mom open the TV for him. He finally got happy.

Vivian and John were sitting together on the sofa beside the window.

Once William left, Vivian noticed that he wanted to tell her something.

Once John settled, he asked Vivian immediately, "Vivi, what's the deal that William is talking about? Do you really want to give Roe to him?"

John knew how important Roe was to Vivian. He would never believe in William's words.

Vivian shook her head with a wry smile, "No. It's just a deal. I still get Roe's custody, but I want to give him a chance."

Of course, doing this might put herself in danger of losing Roe.

William was in good financial condition. She knew Roe was attached to her because he was still an innocent child. But what if he changed his mind after getting along with William for a year?

She couldn't imagine how to live without Roe.

"What do you mean?" John was a little confused and asked.

Vivian hesitated for a while and told him William's condition.

John wrinkled. Vivian may not figure it out. However, as a man, he knew well about what William thought.

His real intension was to force Vivian to be with him by taking away Roe.

John would never let William take away Vivian again.

John answered, "Vivian. You're deceived."

"What?" Vivian dazed.

"I mean Willian fooled you. William is competent. His wealth, social position and even profession give him more of a legal advantage to fight with you for Roe's custody, but that doesn't mean he'll win the lawsuit." John hided his thought and looked straight at Vivian.

Vivian was moved by his firm look, as she trusted him whole-heartedly. She wrinkled and said, "I know what you mean. A complete family is more important than anything, but…"

"There is no 'but'. I have told you that if you agree, we could get married immediately. I will treat Roe as my own son and make you happy. And William can't take Roe away from you.” John interpreted her and answered in a firm tone.

John's mind was in turmoil when saying this. He held his hands tightly and was afraid to hear Vivian's answer.

Finally, John watched Vivian shaking her head slowly, but firmly.

"John, I can't marry you just for the sake of Roe. It’s unfair to you and irresponsible to Roe. Besides, you have already helped me a lot with Roe's illness, and I can't owe you anymore. John, I just can't pay back" Vivian bit her lip nervously.
