The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 970 A Sudden Change

It was a video that ended up changing public perception. Although the image and sound had beenaltered, it was obvious from the background that it was filmed in the hospital. It was also clear from theway in which the woman spoke that it was Vivian.

The woman in the video claimed she had saved Lydia’s baby. According to her, it was people from thefactory that had tried to take Lydia’s child away. She, with the help of the medical staff and securityguards had rescued the baby.

The woman explained that, although she was angry at Lydia for slandering the Larson Group, heremployer, she had still helped Lydia and her child. The claim the Larson Group was involved in thekidnapping the baby in order to force Lydia to accept the compensation and shut up was thereforeunfounded. <21

In the video, several members of hospital staff and the security guards further corroborated the LarsonGroup’s lack of involvement.

“Who did this?” One of the senior executives asked. “She did us a big favor.”

With this simple video, the public perception of the Larson Group had completely shifted.

Brandon knew it was Vivian in the video. He placed his phone down on the table, his face bearing aninscrutable expression.

Sean stayed to sort out the documents after all the senior executives left. He muttered to himself,“What on earth does Vivian want? Maybe she just wants to repay the kindness? After all she was anorphan and the Larson Group helped to support her.”

But Brandon didn’t think it was that simple. He stood up and left. When he had made it just a couplesteps out the door, Sean stopped him. “Mr. Larson, you have a phone call.”

Taking the phone, Brandon’s eyes momentarily darkened. He handed over the documents to Sean, andwalked over to the cafe on the top floor.

“Why did you call me?” Brandon asked, calmly, as if unaffected by what people were saying online.

“Don’t pretend not to know. It’s been all over the Internet. I’ve been working for the Larson Group forsome years. How could I just sit back and do nothing when you need my help?” Leaning back in hisoffice chair, Garrett looked at the video that had been going viral online. His eyebrows raised slightly,he praised Brandon, “I wanted to help, but it seems the problem has been resolved perfectly. You’resmart, Brandon.” i

Although Garrett had been busy, he couldn’t help but worry when he saw the Larson Group beingslandered all over the Internet. As soon as he finished his work, he called Brandon to ask how it wasgoing.

“It hasn’t all been resolved yet. But don’t worry, I’ll handle it.” Brandon stood beside the French window,his determined face staring back at him in the reflection. “The public’s change of heart was very timely.”Garrett smiled. “It seems you have found a competent partner to replace me and Charis.”

The days of the three of them working hard in Seacisco seem to be so far away now. It had beenseveral years since they parted ways. Everything was completely different now, and Charis had evenpassed away…

But, they had no choice but to move on. Seeing the Larson Group surviving under this pressure,Garrett felt happy for Brandon.

Brandon bowed his head slightly. “The video was posted by Vivian Cooper. She was a student fundedby the Larson Group’s talent plan. Now she’s been adopted by the Turners. Vivian previously had aninterview with the Larson Group. She was just as she is described in her resume, excellent. But I hadsome doubts, so I haven’t accepted her yet.”

What had happened to Charis had impacted the Larson Group greatly. He couldn’t let anything like thathappen again.

“I didn’t expect the Turners would adopt someone so soon.” Garrett was obviously surprised. From hisperspective, the Turners deeply loved their daughter. It was a little odd that they would adopt someoneso quickly to replace Charis.

Perhaps, it was just evidence that Vivian was really something.

After thinking for a while, Garrett continued, “Brandon, to be honest, it’s absolutely crucial for theLarson Group to make peace with the Turner family. If the Larson Group wants to succeed, it can’tmake too many enemies. There were many things I didn’t understand until I took over the HardingGroup. I was too young and naive, and I thought courage meant everything. I suffered many lossesbecause of that. Now I understand that it’s best not to hold grudges in the business world. Cooperationwhere both parties win is the best way.”

After hanging up the phone, Brandon became deep in thought. When he finally returned to his office,Sean had finished sorting out the documents and was about to leave.

“Email over Vivian’s resume and phone number to me later.” Brandon sat in his chair and got back towork.

Sean was stunned for a moment but followed his order.

Sitting in the VIP ward, Vivian was paying close attention to all the Internet comments, watching themin real time. Because of her video, it seems the public opinion of the Larson Group had really improved.

Her phone began to vibrate on the table. She answered it nonchalantly.

“Mr. Larson, what can I do for you?” She wasn’t at all surprised to receive a call from Brandon.

“Miss Cooper, I would like you to come and see me here in the Larson Group once you’re out ofhospital,” Brandon replied, in a cool tone.
