The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 1045 Vivian’s Mistake
Vivian found Janet foolish and ridiculous. With someone so stupid like Janet as Brandon’s wife, the Larson Group would eventually go bankrupt.
Vivian then nodded solemnly and replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone find out.”
After hearing Janet’s story, she said with a sigh, “I didn’t expect things to get so complicated. Did you get hurt?”
Janet suddenly became gloomy and her face turned grim. “I’m doing fine, but Brandon is still in the hospital. Something just went wrong with my car and I lost control of the brakes. Brandon was the one who saved me and my friend.”
It was then that Vivian looked away, pretending to be surprised by the story. “How could a perfectly functioned car suddenly stop working? I think we should head to the car manufacturer. Perhaps they’ve been cutting corners in the manufacturing of the cars and it led to this tragedy.”
“It’s definitely not the manufacturer’s fault. Clearly, someone tampered with my car,” Janet said flatly.
At this point, Vivian became serious. “Who would do something like that? We need to find out who did this and punish them for this awful act!”
After observing Vivian’s reactions, Janet smirked and replied, “This isn’t over. One way or another, I’ll find out who’s been trying to hurt me. I’ll chase them to the ends of the world if I have to. I won’t let them get away with this.”
Vivian looked away from Janet’s smiling eyes. For some reason, she felt like Janet seemed aware of the entire situation.
But when Vivian looked back at Janet, she noticed that the other woman looked absolutely clueless.
“What’s wrong? You don’t look so good,” Janet asked.
Vivian tried to compose herself. She led herself to believe that she was just overthinking things. Someone as stupid as Janet wouldn’t figure out her plan.
“I’m just a little scared about all this. Mrs. Larson, you are the kindest person I’ve ever met. I can’t believe someone would try to k*il*l you! What’s this world coming to?” Vivian replied with a worried look once she had calmed down.
Wearing a look of worry and fear as well, Janet heaved a sigh. “I’m just worried that this is over. I don’t know what I’m going to do from here on out.”
“Mr. Larson can handle it. I’m sure. All you need to do now is to take care of yourself whenever you’re out,” Vivian remarked.
At the same time, Vivian figured out the problem she had been trying to figure out. Everything that Janet said matched what Vivian had heard from Sean, which meant that he wasn’t lying. Brandon really put her in an important position, so that she could take on important projects for the Larson Group.
A smile formed in Vivian’s lips, and the flames of revenge in her heart had been stoked.
Upon seeing the malice in Vivian’s eyes and her devilish grin, Janet felt a chill run down her spine. She looked down to hide her fear from Vivian. This woman was much like Charis. She was unpredictable and frightening to boot.
After chatting with Janet for a little bit longer, Vivian decided that it was time to leave. Just as they walked out of the studio, they happened to run into Draco. Vivian’s eyes lit up when she saw him. He was so much more handsome in reality than on TV and magazines. “It’s nice to see you, Mr. Wesley. I’ve long been looking forward to meeting you,” Vivian said to him.
She then heaved a sigh and remarked, “The culture and work environment of W Marks Studio is amazing. If I wasn’t working for the Larson Group, I would definitely want to work here as a designer.” C
The corners of Draco’s mouth twitched, and he replied indifferently, “Not everyone can be a part of W Marks though.”
Though she was embarra*s*sed by his response, Vivian didn’t want to offend him. Thus, she decided to change the topic. “I heard that you were hospitalized a few days ago. Are you feeling better now?” 3
“Who told you that I was in the hospital?” Draco looked at her warily. Only a few people knew that he was hospitalized. How could Vivian possibly know about it when she wasn’t even an employee of W Marks?
Vivian’s body stiffened when she realized that she had made a gaffe.
She had previously investigated everyone in W Marks Studio that was connected to Janet. Of course, Draco Wesley was one of them. Thus, it was embarra*s*sing that she blurted out something she shouldn’t have known just like that.
Feeling tense all over, Vivian stole a glance at Janet to see her reaction.
Fortunately, Janet didn’t say anything. She even escorted Vivian to the door and said, “Be careful on your way back.”
Once Vivian had left, Janet went back to the studio. She almost stumbled down, but she was lucky Tasha was around to catch her.
Tasha was shocked when she felt how cold Janet’s fingers were. “Are you okay, Janet?” she exclaimed.
