Chapter 654 “Take this woman up and hand her over to Brandon.” “Will do. In the meantime, please letcall for backup. You need to have people around to protect you. Otherwise, Mr.and Mrs.
White would not sit still.” The team leader took out his phone and was just about to call his comrades when Natalie held up a hand and stopped him.
“I don't need an entire legion of bodyguards. You can just leave one of your men here with me.” She offered him a small smile of assurance. She really didn’t need so many people watching her every move. But ever since Jane had told her mother about Vivian, Johanna had dispatched all the bodyguards at their family’s dispose] to protect Natalie at all times.
“I'm afraid that's not possible, Mrs. Larson. | know Mrs. White is usually gentle and kind, but she turns into a formidable force of nature when she gets angry. Please allow us to protect you. The White family has been generous to us throughout the years.
The least that we can do is to do our job.” With that, the man made the call ard barked out his orders to the other party.
“Stop patrolling the manor and bring your team over! You need to take over in keeping Mrs. Larson safe!” Feeling helpless and a little embarrassed, Natalie turned away and sent Brandon a message.
“Honey, things are settled here, “Il leave the rest to you.” When Natalie had failed to get Vivian last time, she was so distraught that she earnestly pestered Brandon to reveal his plan to her this time. Her husband was powerless against her and eventually told her everything before he made a move.
However, Brandon did wam Natalie against investigating other insignificant inc.dents that Vivian was involved in. He didn’t want to waste tand energy on trifles.
What they needed was one decisive blow to force Vivian into showing her true colors.
The press conference was part of his plan, too.
In fact, Branden had planned everything.
Then, in order to humor Natalie anc give her a sense of involvement, he gave her the task of capturing Vivian if the latter was trying to run away.
Brandon would stay at the press conference and keep everything in order while Natalie took care of Vivian.
This way, no one would suspect that something suspicious was going on behind the scenes, and even if they did, they wouldn't be able to prove it.

The bodyguards carried the unconscious Vivian and just when they were about to take her away, Natalie stopped them.
“Wait a moment. Check if there’s a car key in her pocket first.” When Natalie picked up the handbag that Vivian dropped on the ground, she found a small silver flash drive.
She handed the flash drive to the bodyguard beside her and said, “Give this to the Larson Group’s technicians and ask them to check if there are any viruses in it. After that, bringthe copy.” A virus attacked her computer last time, so she made sure to be cautious this tbecause she was afraid that something similar might happen again.
That was why she wanted the technicians to check it first before she could use it.
“| found it, Mrs. Larson,” The bodyguard, who was now carrying Vivian, said.
He took out a bunch of keys from Vivian's pocket and handed them to Natalie before they left.
Natalie calmly opened the door to Vivian's car and went inside soon after.
Her car was the latest Mercedes Benz.
The interior of the car was filled with LED lights, which gave off a starry sky effect.
It seemed that the Turner family was really nice to her.
Even the car they bought her was so luxurious.
They said that before Luke and Catherine went on a trip, they gave part of the Turner family’s shares to Vivian.
If Vivian was smart, she would've focused on her life and returned the favor to the Turner family instead of trying her best to target Natalie.
Natalie turned to look at the backpack in the passenger seat and unzipped it.
Inside was a Kraft paper bag and a lot of cash in it.
It seemed that Vivian had already planned to run away.
“Mrs. Larson, are you done here? Mr. Larson askedto cdown and check on you,” Sean said as he approached the car.
Natalie nodded.
“Yes, I'm almost done here. | just sent a message to Brandon, though. Didn't he see it?” “You know Mr. Larson.” Sean chuckled.
“He'll only be relieved when he sees you in person.” Natalie couldn't help but laugh at Sean’s remark.
After a little while, she went back with him.
At that point, the press conference was about to cto an end.
Before Natalie could go inside, she saw Brandon standing on the stairs, not too far away from where she was.
“Honey!” Natalie exclaimed in surprise before she ran over and hugged Brandon.
“Why are you here?” Brandon put his arm around her shoulder and smiled.
“I'm here to pick you up. | already handed Vivian over to my men so they can deal with her.” Natalie smiled and nodded.
At that moment, she noticed that Garrett was standing behind Brandon.
“What are you two talking about? Can you fillin?” Garrett asked.

He tried his best to get close to them, but he still couldn't understand what they were talking about.
Natalie and Brandon smiled as they walked into the hall hand in hand.
The chaos in the press conference had long subsided at that point.
“Brandon and | set up a trap to catch Vivian. She come back to avenge Charis,” Natalie said, answering Garrett's question.
“Vivian caused a lot of trouble these past few weeks. But we're finally able to relax now.” Natalie took a deep breath and slowly exhaled after saying that.
From now on, she would no longer have to live in fear.
“What?!” Garrett's eyes widened in shock.
“I just left the Larson Group for a few months, but | already missed out on so many things! Telleverything, Brandon. Is there anything else | can help you with?” Garrett also wanted to be involved, especially since he and Brandon had becclose pals ever since they graduated.
But things were different now.
Brandon chose to work with Natalie during this case.
Knowing that made Garrett a bit jealous.
“What do you think, honey? Should we tell him or not?” Brandon smiled as he looked at Natalie.
Natalie deliberately let out a sly smile.
“I don't think it's a good idea to tell Garrett about it. After all, he isn’t part of the Larson Group anymore.” “Hey!” Garrett pouted.
“Even though I'm managing the Harding Group right now, that doesn’t mean I'm not one of Brandon's allies anymore!”
