Chapter 253
The Contract Marriage
âYoung Master, donât worry. Even if you canât see, there is still Ruby. I will be your eyes.â
Julian heard her words and laughed. He looked ahead and said faintly, âEven if you are my eyes, sooner or later, you will still be married.â
âRuby will accompany Young Master and not marry. . . â
Julianâs throat choked. âSilly, why are you so stupid?â
Ruby did not say anything. She just lay quietly in his arms.
âRuby, give me a child, okay?â After a long silence, Julian suddenly spoke.
Rubyâs face turned slightly red. She did not know how to answer this question.
âPromise me! I want to have a child that belongs to the two of us. Promise me okay?â
âOkay. . .â
Julian finally smiled when he heard her words. He leaned close to her forehead and kissed her lightly.
He hugged her tightly in his arms. âRuby, why didnât I meet you earlier?â
Once Julian left the house, Vivian took the opportunity to return to her motherâs house. Daphneâs current thoughts were all on her son. She was too lazy to care, so Vivian wanted to return to her motherâs home.
The Cooper Familyâs car sent Vivian downstairs and left. Vivian went upstairs alone. When she knocked on the door of the living room, only her mother was home. Vivian held her waist and walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down.
âVivian, how is Julianâs eyes?â Seeing her daughter sit down, Mrs. Holmes could not wait to ask.
âHumph, itâs better to be blind. It just so happens that I can vent my anger.â Vivian smiled and did not care about Julianâs condition at all.
Mrs. Holmes looked at her daughter unhappily. âWhat are you talking about? He is your husband after all. If his eyes are not good, you wonât have a good life in Cooper Family in the future! â
Vivian raised her eyebrows as well. âMom, why will I not having a good life? Itâs not like my eyes will also be blind when he is blind.â
âJulianâs eyes are not good. Think about what will happen to Cooper Group in the future. Julian was still supporting the company in the past. Now your father-in-law is the only one left. You still want to continue with such a big family business. What if something happens to you like last time? What will you do?â
During the days when she found out that her son-in-law was blind, Mrs. Holmes was also worried about her daughterâs future.
âAiya, Mom, what you said is true. Why didnât I think about it before?â
âWhen the time comes, Julianâs Big Brother might have to return from the army. At that time, the entire Cooper Group will have nothing to do with you anymore. Why are you so stupid? â
Vivian heard her motherâs words and waved her hand. âImpossible! I still know a I estimate that even if the sky of Cooper Family falls, he wonât be willing to come back!â
âIf thatâs the case, it would be fine. But if Julianâs eyes canât be cured, it will have a huge impact on you!â
âThereâs no other way. The doctor has already sentenced him to death. He said that he can only wait for the appropriate cornea! Besides, His life is currently very comfortable.â
âWhat do you mean? He canât even see it now. Why are you still talking about his good life?â Mrs.
Holmes asked in puzzlement.
âMom, you donât know. That cousin of mine. . . Her whole body was transformed from a vixen!â Vivian remembered that during this period of time, her cousinâs relationship with Julian had gotten closer and closer, and she was somewhat jealous.
âWhat do you mean by that?â Mrs. Holmes asked in surprise when she heard her daughterâs words.
âMom, you must not know that Julian is sleeping in Rubyâs room every doesnât even go to my room.
Donât you think that girl became a vixen?â
Mrs. Holmes angrily frowned. âHow could this be? The Cooper Family is too much of a bully! No way!
No matter what, I have to find you, mother-in-law!â
Mrs. Holmes wanted to stand up as she spoke but was stopped by her daughter, Vivian.
âAiyo, mom. Why are you getting so angry? If they are together, then let them be together. I am just saying it casually. Iâm not angry. What are you angry about?â
âLook at what youâre saying. Julian is your husband and Ruby is the daughter of your uncle. How could you let Julian spoil her? If your uncle finds out in the future. . . What face do I have to face him in the future?â
âOh, donât worry about that! Iâll tell you the truth! Ruby is with Julian, it was for the 100,000 yuan that Julian gave her to treat her father. Besides, now that Julianâs eyes canât see, I canât be bothered to look after him either. He can sleep with whoever he wants. I donât mind if I donât see him!â
Mrs. Holmes heard her daughterâs words and sighed. âWhat kind of marriage do was carrying Lucasâs child, and Julian was with Ruby. What is all this about? It was chaotic! Itâs a mess!â
Vivian curled her lips in disdain. âHmph, itâs better if itâs all messed up.â If it was all messed up, she would be able to fish in troubled waters.
At night, Vivian went to Lucasâs house as usual. Ever since Julian lost his sight, Lucasâs work also stopped. He still went to work at the company every day, but it was nothing more than making some phone calls. He was originally Julianâs assistant. No one else could manage his work, so he had no work to do even if he went to work now.
âLucas, how is it going in the company now?â Vivian asked him anxiously as soon as she entered Lucasâs living room.
âWhat else can we do? Now that Julianâs work had been taken over by the old man, the few vice presidents of the company had become much more prominent recently. I heard that Ethan Cooper is preparing to find a new CEO among the few vice presidents. Recently, all the departments in the company have been working overtime nonstop. Everyone wants to do something in front of this old man.â
âChoose a new CEO? How can that be? If thatâs the case, wonât the company become someone elseâs?â
âIt seems like this is only temporary, right? It should be after Julianâs eyes have recovered that the position of president will still be Julianâs. But I think Julianâs eyes wonât be able to recover in a short period of time. Thatâs why everyone is so concerned.â
âNot even at the last minute! How could something like this happen? Ethan didnât even mention it to his family when he came home. This is too much!â Vivian was really provoked by this news.
Julianâs eyes would not recover in a short period of time. If Ethan really chose a temporary CEO to that person did not do well, but if he did well. . . Ethan might be able to rectify it. At that time. . .
âBut who can change Ethanâs decision? We can only watch him do it!â Lucas shrugged his shoulders.
âNo! Absolutely not! Tomorrow, I will go to the company to talk to him! This temporary CEO, no matter what, I will not let him choose!â
âHe is the chairman!â
âWhatâs wrong with the chairman? He is the chairman, but he is also Julianâs biological father!â
Vivian really did what she said. After breakfast the next day, she went out of the neighborhood and hailed a taxi to Cooper Group.
The company was still a little familiar to her, so once she entered the company lobby, she took Ethanâs private elevator and went straight to his office.
Because Vivian came early, Ethan had just arrived at the company not long ago and was asking his secretary to prepare for a meeting. Seeing the secretary walk in with Vivian, he was somewhat surprised.
Ethan saw her big belly and invited her to sit down on the sofa as soon as possible.
âDidnât you return to your motherâs house? Why did you have time to come to the company to take a look today? Is there something important that you want to talk to me about?â
Ever since Vivian cheated on Christian and got together with Julian, Ethanâs impression of this girl had not changed much. But now, in front of her, he was still an elder no matter what.
âDad, I have something to talk to you about today.â
Ethan nodded. âTell me, what is it?â
Vivian lowered her head and gently pinched her leg. Her voice was a little choked. âJulianâs eyes canât see anything during this period of time. I really want to take care of him. But my body is not convenient.
You know this too.â
Ethan looked at her silently and nodded slightly when he heard what she said.
âIn fact, no matter how sad the people of Cooper Family are, I am still the one who suffers the most.
Every day when I look at his helpless look, I wish I could donate my cornea to him. Because heâs not only my husband, but also the CEO of this company, and the father of my unborn child. The child will be born very soon. I think that at that time, Julianâs eyes. . . Will definitely not be able to see it. After a child is born, it is the father who always carries him. But my child. . .â Vivian said as her tears kept falling.
âDonât worry too much. His eyes are just temporarily invisible. I think it wonât be long before I find a suitable cornea.â
Vivian raised her hand to wipe her tears, feeling wronged. âDad, although you said so, you also donât believe that you will really find it, right?â
After saying that, Vivian looked up at Ethan.
âWhat are you talking about? How could I not believe it? Our country is so big, and there are so many hospitals. I believe that as long as we have enough patience, we will definitely find a suitable cornea.â
âSince you really believe it, then why did you take the opportunity when Julian was not in the company to remove his CEO position? He is in a bad mood. If he knows that you made such a decision at this time, he would be even more sad. . .â After Vivian said that, her tears fell silently again.
Ethanâs brows slightly wrinkled. âVivian, how did you know about this matter?â
âI originally wanted to see Julianâs office today. When I entered the lobby, I accidentally heard it, so I came directly to look for you. Dad, this canât be true, right?â
Ethan sighed. âActually, finding someone to sit in this position is only temporary. The position of president is still Julianâs. After all, this is the company of Cooper Family. No matter what, I still have some selfish motives. However, if there hasnât been a president in the company for a long time, the entire companyâs morale will be unstable. This was only a temporary measure of convenience. Donât worry too much. â
