Chapter492 No Way Back
No Way Back
William was determined to resolve the matter here as soon as possible and take Vivian and Roe home.
It was not tongue-in-cheek.
It was a big upheaval that Alan had been toppled. So the entire Jin'an City was rectified for a few days,
making everyone else jittery.
In order to catch Daniel as quickly as possible, William cooperated with Jack again, trying to hook
Daniel. But it was a pity that Daniel seemed to have disappeared from the world, for he just didn't show
up anyway.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Jack felt different this time from before.
Last time he stood here, with a mixture of joy and worry, he feared that he would not sit on the throne
long enough.
But now, he, who was in control of the entire Shen Family, was not afraid of anyone. But...
"Is Vivian your wife?" Jack raised his eyes, with an unclear look.
William raised his eyebrows, "Can't she?"
"It's incredible." He retracted his gaze and said tonelessly.
William always felt there seemed to be melancholy in Jack's eyes.
Melancholy? Well! What was he melancholy about? Vivian had always been William's woman. But her
ability to fascinate men was amazing.
At this time, William's so-called man eater was sitting in a small secret restaurant, sitting opposite was
the man who had been attracted by her, John.
"Why do you think of asking me out? I remember you just got engaged yesterday." There was a quiet
smile on her face, and a sense of alienation on her forehead, not heavy, but just making John feel
painful. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
John felt torturous as if his heart was pricked by a needle.
"Vivian, when did our relationship become like this?" He smiled suddenly, with the corners of his mouth
slightly pale.
Vivian looked down slightly, paused and said, "Is it bad? Actually, we have never been the right person
for each other, but it's a pity that we both realized this too late."
"So is William that person for you? Do you think you will definitely be together?" John said sharply.
Vivian shook her head, raised her lips mockingly, and said in a gentle voice, "I don't know."
The three casual words immediately stopped John from saying what he wanted to blurt out.
With a sudden smile, he leaned back dejectedly, "William is so lucky. Angie fell head over heels in love
with him. Now even if the Jing Family has declined, he still has you by his side. All the while, it seems
that everyone was struggling under his control."
"John..." Vivian frowned slightly, as if she didn't recognize him at that moment.
He has always left a gentle and pleasant impression on her. When did he change?
Vivian's icy gaze made John startled abruptly. He quickly changed the look in his eyes and calmed
down.
He sighed and smiled bitterly, "Are you just protecting him? Can't I, a loser, say a few bitter words
about him now?"
Vivian was softhearted for a moment, but she immediately shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, John."
"Don't say sorry to me. It's me who needs to say this." John touched his face and said in a pretentiously
relaxed tone, "Vivian, I actually owe you an apology. If it weren't for me, that incident would not happen.
Also, I can't give you justice yet. I... I'm sorry."
Vivian shook her head, "I can understand. She is your fiancée after all."
John's fingers paused and his eyes flashed with a sharp look.
"You mean my fiancée?" John raised his eyebrows, quietly hiding a trace of surprise.
Vivian didn't notice it, and just continued with her words, "Yeah, you have to live together for a life time,
so naturally you have to support each other. What's more, you have grown up together and have deep
affection. I can understand and won't blame you. But as your friend, I still hope you can talk to her. This
time I pass over her wrong doings for your sake, but if she is always so unruly, one day she will pay a
big price."
John's look was flickering with a glimmer she couldn't understand. He suddenly felt that he seemed to
have made a big mistake, a mistake that would destroy all his sanity.
"What's the matter with you?" Vivian noticed that he didn't look well, and thought she had said
something wrong. So she was taken aback and looked at him.
John shook his head, with emotions surging in his heart but remained calm. He took a sip of the tea,
and suddenly said with his eyes full of eagerness, "Vivian, if at first... If I could bring her to apologize to
you when you were in trouble, would it be possible for us to be together?"
Vivian’s brain was blank for a moment, as if she didn't expect him to ask this question. How to answer?
Who knew what would have happened?
But looking at his eager eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse bluntly.
Thinking about the situation again, she sighed finally, "Maybe. But it is something that will never
happen, and no one knows the result."
John was sad and looked at her with an intense gaze, as if to see through all her emotions.
She kindly reminded him, "John, everything has passed. No one should be immersed in the past. We
can't go back."
"Can't go back... Can't go back?" John fell into a trance. Indeed, time can't travel backward, and they
can't go back.
They didn't have the meal for long and eventually parted in discord.
After leaving, Vivian was still a little bit melancholy. She lost such a good friend after all. But life is
usually unsatisfactory, and not everything goes well.
Thinking of Roe, she was full of energy.
John returned home with an oppressive spirit. Mrs. Reina was obviously satisfied because of John's
engagement with Haylee, and was in high spirits.
Haylee also came to visit early in the morning with various fruit and soup, as Mrs. Reina would have
the operation today.
"Haylee is so virtuous that she comes to accompany me early in the morning without complaining."
Mrs. Reina praised Haylee delightedly to Mr. Sam with satisfaction. It didn't seem like she was going to
have surgery in a while.
Mr. Sam also smiled. The compliment of them made Haylee blush.
John walked in, his dark expression instantly changed the atmosphere in the ward.
"John, what's the matter with you? Why do you look so depressed?" Mr. Sam and Mrs. Reina looked at
each other, feeling that there must be something that they didn't know.
John didn't respond to their questions, but looked at Haylee coldly. The look in his eyes was elusive, as
if he was an ogre.
Haylee was startled.
