My dear lawyer novel Chapter 367

But, who would it be if it was not William?

Vivian had lost her wits. Her face was pale, as if she did not have a backbone. Her eyes were as if covered by a veil of mist, could not see anything in front of her.

Roe was all she had.

William face was sullen, and his heart was filled with worries. His cold eyes were as dark as ink.

The staff of the hospital came very soon. Some were comforting both of them; some were trying to find other people to help. But it seemed like they made no difference.

“Lawyer William, we will definitely find Roe. The hospital was so big that Roe just got lost somewhere. Do not worry.” The director of the hospital wiped the sweat on his head.

Although the director said these words, he was just pretending to be calm.

Why did such a thing happen in his hospital?

The great man who was cheering in the morning suddenly became a demon.

It was not hard to imagine: if Roe was really lost, they would suffer a lot because Vivian cared so much about Roe, and both William and John would launch revenge!

It was not clear whether the director was comforting himself or William and Vivian by those words.

The response he got from William was a glance from a pair of sharp eyes, as sharp as a sword.

“NO. I am going to look for Roe. He is so young that he must be scared. He has no friends here. I have to look for him.”

Vivian came to herself and held William’s clothes to stand up, wanting to run out.

William clenched her so tight that she could not escape. Vivian’s face was full of tears, “What are you doing?... Let go. Let me go!”

“Vivian, calm down. You will do no good to it. We need to know the whereabouts of Roe first!” William stood up unconsciously, and held Vivian’s wrist tightly, with coldness on his calm face.

Vivian escaped from his wrist with all her strength, with pain and misery on her face, “William, how can you be so calm? How can you? That is your son. Even though you do not like him, can you not hurt him?”

“What the hell are you talking about?” William tried to take a deep breath, with fury mixed in his dark eyes.

Neither of them wanted to see their son in danger. But if he also lost his wit, who was going to look for Roe?

The hospital staff?

Vivian smiled coldly, “Isn’t that true? William, dare you swear that this has nothing to do with you?”

Vivian’s facial expression and her red eyes were so miserable that William could not speak any word out.

He dared not.

Because he himself was throwing some doubt on it.

Vivian’s eyes were filled with disappointment.

She thought that he would put his mind to Roe, even though he has no feeling for her. After all, Roe was his son.

But the truth was that he was handling it with such an attitude, she cast doubt on it.

Was it to protect Angie?

Vivian curled her mouth and smiled with sarcasm, but her heart was totally broken.

“Give me your phone!” She took out her phone from his pocket hastily. After seeing the silent mode, she glared at him.

She turned on the phone, and found there were countless missed calls from a same person.

Vivian’s eyes were hurt.

She seemed to have felt the anxiety of the man who called.

William was calm like a surface of non-stirred water, and looked at her calling John and saw her emotions flooding after hearing John’s voice.

“John...” Vivan tried to sooth her emotions with one of her hands covering her mouth.

John was startled. His anxiety out of losing contact with her burst out.

He held his phone nervously, “Vivi, what’s the matter? What happened? Are you crying?”

“John...Something bad... Roe is missing. I cannot find Roe...” Vivian cried with decadence.

“I will come to you soon, do not worry. Maybe Roe is just playing somewhere outside. Do not cry. Wait for me. I will come to you in a moment!”

There seemed to be the sound of motor vehicles from the other side of the phone. John went outside fast with his phone in his hands.

After the phone call was hung up, blankness remained on Vivian’s face.

William’s feet moved so fast that the plaster on his foot cracked and fell off to the ground.

Vivian could not believe it, with her eyes wide open.

Thick fog emitted from William’s eyes, and he was involved inside and not able to see the way ahead.

“Vivian, you are so dependent upon another man!” A voice of danger rang besides her, making her tremble a little.

William snorted coldly. Seeing that the director who went out came hastily, sweats rolling down from his forehead and his facial expression showing anxiety, William’s heart became heavy and figured out something.

As expected, the director stood in front of them, his waist bending and his hands rubbing, “Mr. William, Miss Vivian, I am so sorry. We have searched the entire hospital, but still failed to find Roe. We have asked someone to look into the monitors; I believe there will be clues very soon.”

As he was saying, his waist was bending lower and lower.

He promised to find Roe, but he was just promising to offer some clues now.

It meant a worse result.

“The hospital is to be closed. Everyone should be examined. You’d better pray that Roe is fine.” William’s eyes were narrowed, a sign to indicate that something bad would happen.

The director trembled, nodding his head, “Yeah, we will try our best to cooperate.”

“Why do you bother so much? William, now that you have time to warn the director, why don’t you call Angie?” Vivian questioned.

This was the only clue she could get straight in her chaotic mind right now.

That woman hated her so much, and had hurt Roe so many times. Who else would kidnap Roe except Angie?

Out of this certainty, she thought everything William did was biased towards Angie.

To help Angie, he could let his son suffer.

“Stop this kind of conjectures if you have no evidence. Otherwise, you would miss some important clues and chances.”

This was a conclusion he got after so many years of doing businesses.

Vivian took a deep breath. A fierce malice burst forth from the still-dried tears and wretched eyes. “William, you’d better guarantee it was not her. Otherwise, I will kill her immediately.”

William’s heart was choked, something in his heart could not be let out. Did she think that he did not care about his son at all?

Did she think that he was just a man to be fooled by a beautiful woman?

He thought after Vivian left.
