My dear lawyer

Chapter 322 I Will Be the Scapegoat



The early morning next day, John was standing outside the door and asked again, "Vivi, don't you really need me to accompany you to the hospital?"

"John, you don't need to. It is just a casual injection. I will be OK. And Selina will drive us there." Vivian did not want to delay his work. In addition, as Roe was just to have a casual injection, there was no need for him to go together.

John was eager to go there, but the meeting today was more important. Besides, his mother put so much pressure on him that he could not delay his work anymore. Otherwise, his mother would think that it was Vivian who always made him postpone his work. Sighed helplessly, John said: "OK. If something happens, please call me immediately. And say sorry to Roe on my behalf."

Since his return, he had the confidence that he could protect Vivian and Roe. The hospital was located on somewhere hard to find, and nobody knew that he had hired a cardiologist. What's more, the first two operations went very well, so he did not worry about it very much.

"Well, got it. You just go to work." Vivian said, feeling kind of funny after seeing the guilt-ridden John.

John smiled helplessly, but finally got in his car.

"Vivi, I am leaving."

"OK." Vivian waved her hands at him and went back to the villa.

Roe rubbed his drowsy eyes, and said, "Mom, I am ready."

"OK. Brush your teeth and wash your face first. Then I will take you to eat something delicious." Because he was going to have an injection, he must go there with his belle empty.

As a little foodie, Roe became refreshed after hearing that he could eat something tasty. Blinking his cute black eyes, he required his mom with baby-like voice, "Mom, I want to eat sweet food."

Sweet food equaled cakes.

Another one who loved eating sweet food! Vivian thought and stunned for a little while. She thought of William. Every time he ate sweet food, the corner of his mouth rose unconsciously and a bright light appeared in his eyes, making him extremely attractive. Maybe he never had any idea how attractive his genuine smile was.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Roe walked down from the stairs, with his slippers on.

Vivian came back to herself and a faint smile appeared on her face. "Nothing! I was just absent-minded. Is it OK for you to get a cake after your injection?"

"That is awesome." Roe said in a delighted voice.

Vivian looked at him with a favorable look, and said, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth. Your aunty is going to take us a few minutes."

"Why doesn't Uncle John accompany us to the hospital?" Roe asked in a confused tone, as he used to accompany them.

Vivian tapped his little butt and said, "John will be busy with his work today. We should not interrupt him. Go to brush your teeth and wash your face quickly."

"Got it." Roe blushed after his butt was tapped, and walked away with his slippers.

Fifteen minutes later, Selina swaggered in through the gate. "My dear, is your butt ready for an injection?"

"Aunty Selina..." Roe ran into Selina's arms like a little cannonball.

Delighted, Selina hugged him in her arms, wondering why he changed so much today. He was not so zealous before.

Roe immediately spoke into her ears softly, "Uncle Selina, my dad called me yesterday. If my mom asks you about it, you just say it is you who called. Otherwise, I cannot keep this secret anymore."

This little kid had learned to find a scapegoat. Selina nodded and smiled, telling him also in a low voice, "OK, I get it. But remember you owe me a favor."

"Aunty Selina, it is an unreasonable request for a kid younger than 4." Roe's face almost turned black.

Selina answered without changing her face," Now that you ask me to keep a secret for you, I can also ask you to do something. Well, if you do not agree on it, I will not force you. It is just this secret you asked me to keep..."

"Your mom has come out of her room."

Roe bit his teeth, and look defeated "Well."

"My dear boy is still so obedient." Selina did not think threatening a kid was shameful. She rather felt proud of herself, because she had finally got a chance to threaten him. Every time Roe did something bad, he was very naughty.

"Roe, what's the matter with you?" Vivian saw Roe's unhappy face after coming out of her room. That look seemed like he had nothing to live for, with his head down.

Selina was in a good mood, smiling with her two eyes narrowed into a line, and said, "Kids are always moody."

"Is that true?" Vivian showed doubt on it.

Selina pinched his little face lightly and smiled like a grandma wolf, and asked Roe, "Is that true, my dear boy?"

"Yeah" Roe dragged the sound long purposefully, because he would be his aunt's unpaid spy for a whole week, which was really not worthwhile.

Although Vivian did not know what secret they were talking about, she still walked to Roe, took one of his hands and said, "Let's go. The doctor is already waiting for us."

"No problem. My car is just outside and I did not park it into the garage." Selina walked out, with her key spinning in her hands.

On their way to the hospital, Vivian asked about the call yesterday, which was within their expectation. Selina was quite handy answering her, directly dispelling her doubts. "Selina, do not buy these expensive things for Roe. He is still a kid." Vivian kept making it clear.

Selina nodded hastily. "OK. I have my rule of doing things. The childish phone you bought cannot even receive a video call. Its function is too limited."

Hearing this, Vivian could not say anything anymore.

Thus, the call issue just passed.

When they arrived at the hospital, Doctor Lee had already been waiting in the office. Seeing them come in, he walked towards them, with an amiable smile on his face, and said, "Vivian, Roe, you have come." "Yes, we come here to bother you again." Vivian nodded towards him politely.

Doctor Lee smiled and said, "This is what I am supposed to do. How is it a bothering? What do you say, Roe?"

He reached his hand out to touch Roe's head. But Roe escaped from him swiftly, with his eyebrows wrinkled. He did not like strangers touch him. Besides, he felt that this doctor was strange.

"Roe, Doctor Lee likes you, how can you be so rude?" Vivian was a little confused by Roe's behavior. There used to be some old grandparents who touched him, but he did not make them feel awkward. Why did he resist the touch from the doctor today?000000
