Luke's expression turned from shock to rage as he went through the materials.

Slamming the documents on the table, he yelled, "We should never have adopted Vivian at all!"

A chill ran down Catherine's spine.

What could cause Vivian to do such a thing? Vivian had promised her that she would leave the LarsonGroup soon.

Had she been lying? It all made sense to Luke when he saw the odd look on Catherine's face.Hesputtered, unable to believe it, "You were aware she had been working in Brandon's company? Youknew?"

Catherine lifted her head and met Luke's eyes.

Minutes passed and she did not utter a word.Luke's anger grew at Catherine's silence.He angrily gotup, tossed the cake to the floor and stormed off.

Before he walked out, he swiveled around to face Johanna in anger.

"I'll return home immediately to personally handle this matter.Don't worry!"

With that, he left, Catherine hurrying after him.

Johanna smiled at the receding figures of the couple.

Just then, Beal stepped in, holding an ice cream cone from outside the restaurant in his hand.

As he saw the two angrily storming off, he asked curiously, "Have you finished talking with themalready, honey? That was quick!"

"I know, right? Luke was extremely furious. novelebook.com He won't be letting Vivian off the hook soeasily this time."

Johanna's mood lifted as she saw the ice-cream in Beal's hand.

She took the spoon and tasted it.

She let out a sigh as it landed on her taste buds.

"It tastes just as it did before.Here, you taste it too."

Beal couldn't help but shiver as he ate the ice-cream Johanna fed him.

His face contorted at the cold and he said, "It's winter in Mexico now, honey.I'm too old to down food foryoung people."

Johanna's preferences were strange as she liked to eat food regardless of whether it was inaccordance with the season.

However, Beal always spoiled her.

"I told you to exercise more with me.You're always in the study, and you never move around.Now youunderstand why good health is important."

With a smile, Johanna looked him up and down and said, "It seemed to me Catherine dotes on Vivian alot.Despite how angry Luke was, she didn't utter a word.Luke on the other hand, is quite different.Hewon't allow Vivian to destroy his company."

Janet was surprised to see Catherine with her mother at the interrogation room.She asked Johanna,"Did you call her back, mom?"

"Yes I did.Vivian is part of the Turner family and Catherine had the right to know what happened."

Johanna receded a few steps with Janet and said, "Also, I'm sure Catherine must have a lot to askVivian face to face."

Vivian did not dare look up.Her eyes were on Catherine's tightly clenched fists, and her entire bodytrembled.

"Give it to me straight.What's happening? We never asked you to get revenge on Janet!"

Catherine’s voice was hoarse as she asked.She stared down at Vivian, disappointed, and pulled outthe document Johanna had given her, tossing it at Vivian.

The papers made their way to the floor, each one covered in evidence of Vivian's crimes.

Seeing that Vivian didn't say a word, Catherine became angrier.

The disappointment in her heart was even more than anger.She said, "I have treated you as my owndaughter, and I had almost devoted all my love for Charis to you."

Catherine placed a hand over her mouth as she broke down into tears.She had made the worstjudgment and she regretted it! Vivian had only been using her from day one! Vivian's eyes were filledwith sadness as she raised them.She did her best to conceal her emotions.She couldn't help but besad as she thought of how kindly Catherine had treated her.

Even though Vivian had not spent a lot of time with Catherine, the warmth Catherine had shown hermade a significant impact.

Vivian gritted her teeth and made up her mind.She turned to Janet and said, "No one else in the Turnerfamily was aware of what I was doing.This does not concern them in any way.I will face theconsequences alone."

All she could do was try not be a burden to the Turner family at this point.

Janet could tell the Turners had nothing to do with Vivian's revenge judging from Catherine'swords.She found it disappointing.

Who else was Vivian getting help from if not the Tumer couple? It was as though there was an invisibleenemy hidden behind everything, peering at her and Brandon.

Janet was about to ask more questions when Catherine lifted her purse, ready to slam it on Vivian'sface.

She asked hysterically, "Not once have Luke and I thought of taking revenge on Janet andBrandon.What made you do this? What was your goal? Are you trying to ruin the entire Turner family?"

Catherine was aware they were also partly responsible for Charis’ death.

Besides, the Larson Group was not one the Turner family could bear to be at odds with.So despite theresentment in her heart, she had no other option but to give up the idea of revenge.

Now Vivian had ruined everything, making the Turner family's endurance to be all for naught.Seeingthat Vivian didn't say a word, Catherine became angrier.
