Chapter 69 My Fiancee, Vivian!
Chapter 69 My Fiancee, Vivian!
“Did I hear that wrong? You’re going to announce to the public that Vivian is your fiancee?”
After he heard Shawn’s conclusions, Connor almost spewed out the wine in his mouth. As far as he
knew, this man had not officially gone through a divorce, yet he was already announcing a new fiancee.
“I don’t want Jasper to be called an illegitimate child anymore."
Shawn drank the wine in his glass, but his eyebrows were still tightly frowned. All of a sudden, Connor
smiled.
“Let me clarify, you want to announce Vivian as your fiancee because of your child, and not for her?
Then when are you going to make her your real wife? When will you and Joye go through the divorce
procedures?”
Shawn turned his head around, he glared at Connor and said in a displeased tone, “What are you
trying to say?”
“I have said all that I want to say. Shawn, you have fallen in love with Joye.”
He was in love with her, that was why he was so entangled and unwilling to let go of her.
“Me? In love with her?”
A hint of disdain flashed across Shawn's eyes, it was as if someone had struck him in the heart. The
divorce agreement had already been signed, he only needed to hand it over to the lawyer. After a
while, he would no longer have any relationship with that woman, it could be thrown into the drawer in
his office.
Had he really fallen in love with that woman?
"It's rare to see our famous Mr. Richard like this. Whatever alcohol you want to drink today, just order it.
Brother, it’s my treat.”
Connor smiled in a carefree way. At first, he thought that it would be funny to poke fun at someone’s
pain, however, that fun lasted less than three seconds. Shawn held his wine glass and glanced at him
with contempt.
“I heard that you have erectile dysfunction recently. Do you need me to introduce a few foreign
experts?”
“You’re the one with a dysfunction. I… This is called self-cultivation.”
Connor’s expressions turned bad, his face was red. These days, it really seemed like he had this
problem. At first, he could still react. However, at the last moment, he would no longer have any
interest. It was getting worse. Little Connor did not respond to beauties anymore.
Shawn let out a cold sneer and continued to drink. He had no intentions of getting involved with
Connor’s matters. He just didn’t want to delay Vivian and Jasper’s matters any longer.
The two distressed men drank until it was late at night. The next day, Shawn woke up from the private
room at noon. He looked at the time on his phone and scrolled through his contacts, looking for
Salmon’s number.
“Get ready, a press conference will be held in an hour. Also, prepare a dress for Vivian and bring her
over.”
"Boss? The purpose of this press conference is.
.."
Halfway through his question, Salmon understood. Vivian probably had something to do with the press
conference.
What happened to his boss? Did something happen the day before that irritated him?
After hanging up the phone, Shawn pinched his sore brows. Connor woke up as well, he turned over
on the sofa. The wine bottle that was in his hand fell on the carpet, and his brain woke up earlier than
his eyes.
“Have you really thought this through? Be careful, Baird might not let you go that easily.”
Shawn’s hands, which were gripping his coat, paused slightly. Once the press conference was held, a
storm would definitely come, as he knew just how much his grandfather liked Joye.
The next second, he picked up his coat and put it on. His well-defined face was no longer troubled. He
strode out of the room.
Connor sat up from the sofa, he stretched himself. He glanced at the door of the private room and said,
"Alas, my happiness is short-lived. I don't even know why, but I think that I will suffer in the future."
After an hour.
A group of reporters appeared at Richard Group and were all whispering amongst themselves.
“Why is there a press conference all of a sudden? What are they up to?”
“Maybe Mr. Richard and that woman from the Leonard family are going to remarry. I heard Joye saw a
gynecologist at the hospital a few days ago. If she is pregnant, then the child can’t not have a father.”
The reporters were talking among themselves when it turned quiet outside the venue. Shawn’s noble
footsteps could be heard from the gates, and the sound of high heels hitting the ground could be heard
as well.
Vivian was dressed in a lake-blue dress that went all the way to her ankles. The vintage design made
her look even more dignified and gentle. She was holding Shawn’s arm as they walked in. There was a
decent smile on her face.
The reporters who thought that it was going to be an announcement about a remarriage took a deep
breath. Indeed, it was going to be about marriage. However, it was not with his ex-wife, but a new
woman. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Shawn kept an indifferent look on his face. The corners of his eyes had always been devilishly
charming, but it was now a little more solemn and gloomy. He sat down in his private seat and picked
up a microphone. He then got straight to the point.
“There is something that I want to announce today.”
"This is my fiancee, Vivian Hilary!"
This simple opening statement caught the reporters off guard, there wasn’t even an extra foreword.
Generally speaking, when someone from a rich and powerful family got divorced, they would wait for a
year or two before they got married again, to prevent scandals. However, the news of Mr. Richard’s
divorce only came out a few months ago, but he had already announced his new fiancee in such a
high-profile manner.
This action of his was a way of flaunting his wealth and high profile.
"Mr. Richard, the media has taken photos of you and your fiancee taking a little boy to the amusement
park. Is that your son?"
A reporter in the front row stood up and asked. Last time, the news had not even gotten a chance to go
viral, when it was already suppressed. However, the media had a tacit understanding of the child, they
only needed an official declaration.
“That’s right. Jasper is my son, he is the eldest grandson of the Richard family.”
Not only did Shawn directly admit Dalton’s identity, he even said that he was the eldest grandson of the
Richard family. The media was stunned by this announcement.
Who here did not know that the Richard family’s old master, Baird, doted on Joye and that only Joye’s
child was recognized as the great-grandson of the Richard family.
"Mr. Richard, I heard that your ex-wife appeared in the hospital's gynecologist department a few days
ago. What do you think of that?"
The reporters asked implicitly. In fact, these were just rumors that they had heard, but when they went
to verify it, they could not find anything. But they all knew that there was a reason for the rumor.
Shawn’s eyes narrowed. In just a split second, he smiled evilly and said in a cold voice, “That is her
business.”
The crowd was hushed.
Everyone hissed. What did this answer mean? If Joye was really pregnant, did that mean that the child
did not belong to Mr. Richard?
Vivian stood next to Shawn. The whole time, she had never said a word. The corners of her mouth
were raised elegantly and gently. Her hands were holding onto Shawn’s arm like a quiet and lovable
little koala. However, a trace of pride flashed across her eyes.
Earlier that day, when Salmon appeared in the villa with a gown and told her that Shawn was going to
hold a press conference, she understood that there was nothing she needed to do anymore. As long as
she stood happily beside Shawn and showed her face to the media clearly, she would win this battle.
Besides, she had won faster than she could imagine.
