The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 886 Trust

At the Turner family’s mansion, a variety of delicacies occupied the dining table.

Vivian was gradually losing interest in the delicacies she had been having ever since her first day in theTurner family’s estate. At the moment, she was scanning the photos the paparazzi sent. Stills of Janetand Draco were in front of her.

Vivian was curious about them. Janet, a married woman was still hooking up with other men. Finally,she had something on Janet.

The smile on Vivian’s face seemed to be permanent. She sent the paparazzi a message to proceedwith the plan and act accordingly.

“What are you obsessing about? You look to be having so much fun that you forget about the food.”Catherine looked at Vivian fondly, asking her to eat more.

During Vivian’s stay, she gradually grew affectionate towards the girl and now treated her like her owndaughter.

Vivian put her phone aside, calming herself for the lie she was about to say. “It’s a message from theschool. The teacher said that our experiments made a huge breakthrough.”

Catherine was delighted for Vivian.

Vivian turned toward Luke’s direction and scooped up some food for him. “Dad, I’ve been looking uplots of recipes these days so I can cook for you. You need nourishment in your b*ody to regain yourenergy.”

“What a lovely girl you are.” A big smile was plastered on Catherine’s face as she spoke.

Luke was discharged from the hospital only a few days ago.

The liver transplant surgery was a success and since then, his condition had been stable. Except forbeing a little thin, he looked much better. The fact that Vivian donated part of her liver to him eased thehatred he had for her before. So, when Catherine insisted on letting Vivian stay, Luke didn’t object toomuch.

Luke then said, “How are your studies abroad? Don’t you need to go back yet? At your age, you shouldfocus more on your study.”

Vivian’s lips stretched into a smile. “The professor treats me very well. The project was done withoutany complications too. The school is considerate when they found out that I donated my liver. Theyreviewed my previous performance and allowed me to finish the academic year online. Myperformance has been outstanding so there’s nothing to worry about.”

Vivian could tell that the Turner family had trusted her again.

Luke nodded with relief. Vivian was an obedient girl. Most of his doubts disappeared.

Serving some more food for Vivian, Catherine asked, “What are you going to do now that you don’tneed to go back to school?” She sneaked a glance at Luke who was oblivious to her gaze. “If youhaven’t decided yet, you can work at the Turner family’s company if you want.”

Vivian’s aid was a great help to the company while Luke was in the hospital. She dealt with some workat the company and Catherine was immensely satisfied by her professionalism. 

Vivian unfortunately had no desire on working in the Turner Group. It would only make it more difficultfor her to get in touch with Brandon and Janet. Then it would be harder to get revenge.

“The Turner Group is one of the leading companies in Barnes. A fresh graduate like me might not beable to catch up with such a competitive setting. Dad, mom, I want to venture outside and toughenmyself. Then when I have enough experience, I’ll come back to the Turner Group. I’m sure theemployees of the company will accept me completely once I’ve proven myself.” Vivian declined politely.She was entirely aware of where she was standing. Rashly entering the Turner Group wouldn’t be awise choice.

Catherine regarded Vivian carefully, watching the expression on her face. Catherine felt as though shehad gone back in time. In the past, Charis decided to enter the Larson Group instead of her family’scompany. She was young, stubborn, and seemed to be unafraid of anything. Just like Vivian now.

“You… You’re really like her.” Catherine’s train of thought halted as tears filled her eyes. Putting downher knife and fork, she called the maid and ordered, “Go get the brocade box in my cabinet and bring ithere.”

The maid turned around to do as she was told. It didn’t take her long to bring the box to Catherine.

Catherine opened the box. Inside was a gold necklace with jade pendant that looked too delicate totouch. Judging from the jade’s color, the necklace was worth a fortune.

“This is my dowry when I got married. I’m giving this to you as a graduation gift. You’ll be attendingbanquets soon enough. It’s inevitable. Having this kind of jewelry is suitable for such luxuriousoccasions.” Catherine picked up the necklace and put it around Vivian’s neck. The weight shockedVivian. She didn’t expect it to be so heavy. Her hand flew over her lips after briefly touching the coldjade pendant, feigning surprise and affection. “I have never received such a precious gift.”

Catherine’s kindness was reflected in her smile. “It doesn’t matter if it is precious or not. The mostimportant thing is that it suits you. You look so beautiful with this necklace.”

Vivian frowned and pretended to refuse. “Mom, I don’t think I deserve this.”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Catherine scolded, but her tone was gentle. “You are our child now. In the future,you can get more than just jewelry. As a member of the family, you are entitled to some shared of theTurner Group. Both your father and I think girls shouldn’t work too hard on their careers.”

Catherine continued, her voice not losing its softness. “If you like to do something, you do it. If not, youcan always take it easy and enjoy like other ladies. Whatever it is you want is fine. As long as theTurner family is here, you can depend on us. Live a carefree life.” The mention of the shares madeVivian’s eyes twinkle. She wasn’t expecting Catherine to talk about it on her own and so willingly too.
