The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet)
Chapter 1048 A Gift To Destroy The Larson Group

"What... Why are you back?" Vivian asked shakily. Her legs grew weak, and she was frightened. She couldn't believe that Jeremy would suddenly come back.

Jeremy ignored her question. Instead, he changed the topic and asked casually, "Do you have time now? It's too cold outside. How about we warm up with a cup of coffee? My treat."

Despite Vivian's fear of Jeremy, she couldn't refuse his invitation. He was behaving so kindly towards her, and he sounded so warm and courteous. She doubted that the Jeremy she was looking at now was the same one from the ruthless and cunning Jeremy over the phone.

When they reached the coffee shop, the mellow fragrance of coffee wafted through their noses.

Vivian ordered a cup of black coffee and saw her restless reflection staring back at her in the coffee. She had chosen this coffee shop for her safety as the shop was always packed with people. If anything were to happen, there would be witnesses.

"Are you here to supervise me?" Vivian joked awkwardly, with anxiety written all over her face.

Despite looking amiable on the surface, she and Jeremy were actually at odds with each other. Vivian knew that Jeremy was a snake from their previous encounters, and she knew she had to be wary of him. Jeremy crossed his legs and said calmly, "I just started an experimental project at home, so I'm back to oversee it. How are you recently? I heard you're doing a good job in the Larson Group." Vivian forced a smile and replied, "I'm busy dealing

with some charity and public relations projects in the Larson Group."

Jeremy stared at her and said blankly, "You always get what you want, no matter how difficult it is. You're a smart girl, and I always know you will succeed in whatever you set your mind on."

Suddenly, his face turned serious, and his eyes darkened. He looked sternly at her and said, "But I have to remind you that Brandon is also good at scheming. He doesn't show his emotions in front of others, so don't trust him easily. I asked you to start with the Turner family first because I wanted you to use the Turner family's influence to restrain Brandon."

"I understand your intentions, sir," Vivian replied warily.

She smiled bitterly and said, "But I don't have anything else I can give. I've tried my best and I've transferred all the shares I can get from the Turner Group to you. You know it's impossible for me to get them all. I just want to leave when my revenge is done."

Vivian knew it was useless to escape if Jeremy had no intention of letting her go. Even if she successfully escaped, he would still be able to bring her back and even delay her revenge plans.

As such, Vivian was determined to stay and take her revenge, regardless of how afraid she was of Jeremy. No one could stop her!

Jeremy darted his eyes around the room to ensure no one was eavesdropping. He squinted then his eyes and warned her coldly, "Vivian, calm down."

"I'm useless to you now. Please don't threaten me to help you anymore. I will go crazy!" Vivian cried subconsciously. In fact, she was frightened and the more anxious she was, the louder her voice became. Her loudness aroused the curiosity of some of the customers nearby, and they glanced frequently over.

Jeremy noticed that Vivian was growing increasingly

anxious and uncontrollable. He needed to bring her back to her senses quickly, so he picked up a glass of cold water on the table and splashed it on Vivian's face.

He slammed down the glass of water and hissed, "Don't play tricks on me here. You are where you are because of my help. If you don't cooperate, I can take back everything you have any time."

Vivian was trembling all over. She glared at Jeremy and took a few napkins to dry her face. She then picked up her bag and stormed off without saying anything.

Jeremy pushed the door open and chased after Vivian. When he caught up with her, he took out something from his briefcase and said, "Hey, I brought you a gift this time."

Vivian couldn't believe what she was hearing. After all, she never had a meeting with Jeremy that involved goodwill. She quickened her pace in an attempt to shake him off.

"This document alone is enough for you to destroy the Larson Group. Don't you want it?" Jeremy called out to her.

Vivian stopped abruptly. She was stunned. Anything that could help her take her revenge against the Larson Group was undoubtedly a great temptation.

She hesitated and eventually turned back. She eyed Jeremy suspiciously and asked, "What is that document about?"
