My dear lawyer

Chapter 271 Quick Action

Just when Vivian returned home, news bombarded her.

Her conversation with Angie went viral, sweeping through the whole city. Her current address was

exposed anonymously. Therefore, her photos, added with some vulgar language, scattered in every

corner of the community.

Some condemned that she shamelessly stole her best girlfriend’s boyfriend; some reprimanded that

she got the job promotion by selling her body; some still claimed that she was neatly dressed during

the daytime but played the field in bars at night.

With an innocent face, she behaved like a whore.

Vivian knew that but still came home from the front door, causing a sudden hubbub in the tranquil

community. At the sight of her, the residents all judged her with a look of disgust.

Some even satirized her enigmatically in a moderate tone.

“So gross. I spent so much money to move to this high-end villa community but didn’t expect to have

such a disgusting neighbor.”

“I totally agree. It’s the first time that I have seen such a high-profile mistress. You can’t judge a book by

its cover. The more innocent she looks like, the more shameful things she will do.”

“Even the air will be polluted because of her. We must let the property staff kick her out. I feel terrible

looking at her.”

Hearing the criticism around, Vivian creased her eyebrows more tightly. She glimpsed a piece of paper

stepped on her foot. The exposed paper corner revealed its content, which made her pause. She bent

over and intended to pick it up.

Selina’s roar had already come. “Vivi, don’t pick it up!”

However, it was too late. Vivian had picked it up and seen the content. No wonder all residents

criticized her. On it, there was a clear picture of her and a “rich” story of her life.

If she didn’t know it was fabricated, even she would be enraged. Seemingly, the writer possessed

excellent writing skills. But was it decent to fabricate a story for illegal money?

“Vivi, are you okay?” Selina carefully regarded Vivian, who was in silence. If Roe hadn’t found it and

told her there was a photo of Vivi on it, she wouldn’t have known this matter.

At first, she thought someone sent it maliciously and tore it to pieces carelessly. However, Roe

collected a large pile of this paper back, and she noticed countless paper was scattered outside.

Therefore, she walked out of the villa for the fear that Vivi might feel sad. But she was still too late.

Vivian just changed her expression for a second, recovered to its normal, as if nothing had happened,

and threw the paper into a trash can nearby. She thought Angie would wait for a few days.

Unexpectedly, Angie couldn’t wait to dish dirt on her.

“I’m fine. Selina, let’s go home first.”

“Okay.” Surprised, Selina watched Vivian enter the villa as if nothing had happened.

Back in the house, Selina couldn’t help but ask, “Vivi, aren’t you angry?”

“Will it be helpful?” She had already prepared.

Selina was speechless. “It’s useless. But it’s weird that you aren’t angry. Didn’t you meet that bitch this

afternoon?”

“Yes,” Vivian admitted with a nod. After thinking for a while, she added, “I don’t think I should live here

tonight.”

Although she would leave the day after tomorrow, she didn’t want to affect John’s future life.

“Fine. You can stay at my home tonight.” Selina didn’t care about these trivial matters. But, was she

really not bad, after being slandered?

“Vivi, I can teach that bitch a lesson, if you want. She’s forcing you to leave this city.”

Vivian answered indifferently, “I’ve already planned to leave and will never come back. She can do

anything she wants.”

“...” It was difficult for Selina to understand her tolerance. If anyone dared to dish the dirt on her, that

person must be a corpse.

Vivian summoned Roe, “Roe, let’s pack our stuff. We’ll stay at a hotel tonight.”

“Okay, mom.” Roe was her loyal follower. He could go anywhere, as long as he was with his mom. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Eh? Vivi, aren’t going to my place?” Selina asked, confused.

“I don’t want to be a third wheel.”

After that, Vivian took Roe upstairs.

Actually, she wanted to pack her things before John came back. When she found a place to stay, she

would call him and explain it.

Just when she went downstairs with her luggage, John had arrived home with a sweaty face and

uneven breathing. Seeing the luggage next to Vivian, he smiled bitterly, “Vivi, I knew it.”

So, as soon as he heard of the news, he raced home, leaving all the work. As expected, she pulled her

luggage and prepared to leave, without saying goodbye to him.

When bad things happened, Vivian always chose to bear everything alone, which made him feel

frustrated.

“John...” Staring at him, Vivian didn’t know how to explain it. She really wanted to avoid such an

embarrassing occurrence.

John dragged his tie to get rid of the heat because of running. He forced a smile. “Vivi, why do you

always want to run away, when anything bad happens to you? Am I not trustworthy?”

“No. John, I don’t want you to be caught in the crossfire. I’m her only target. That’s what I deserve to

suffer.” Vivian looked away cruelly. She couldn’t get him involved because of being softhearted.

Hearing her confession, Selina was irritated, “Bullshit. Seriously? That’s what you deserve to suffer?

This is the feeling that woman wants to give you. Why are you so silly?”

Her stubbornness made Selina’s hackles rise.

Vivian kept silent. A small white hand suddenly grasped her cold hand, warming her with his body

temperature gradually.

As she bent her head, Roe looked at her with determination in his pure eyes. At the moment, her heart

was brimming with unlimited courage and power. No matter how others misunderstood her, she

wouldn’t flinch or feel scared, as long as he was still here.

She knew if she made a concession, it was her child who would be hurt.

“Vivi, I hope you can try to count on me. Stay here. Don’t go. I’ll definitely handle this issue.” John was

worried if Vivian and Roe went out. If they stayed here, he could protect the mother and son.

Selina also persuaded her nearby, “Yeah, Vivi, you don’t have to worry about yourself. But Roe’s health

couldn’t go wrong.”

Speaking of his health, Vivian was somewhat hesitant.

John seized the opportunity and added, “Vivi, just hang in one more day. We’re going to leave. You

don’t want any accidents to happen, right?”
