Chapter 1023 Suspecting Kathie
After Sean returned to the Larson Group, he began dealing with the matter of the car accident.
“I checked the surveillance video from the parking lot. The convertible was in a relatively backward position and there were two
cars in front of it, so I couldn’t see clearly who tampered the car at that tsimply from the footage.”
Brandon closed the file. “Is the vehicle’s dashcam still there?”
He remembered that the convertible was badly damaged at that time. Whether or not they could get the video from the dashcam
remained a question.
“The dashcam was burnt down and is being repaired at the moment,” Sean answered. “But I did see an acquaintance at the
banquet.”
Brandon raised an eyebrow. His full attention was on Sean.
“I saw Kathie at the banquet,” Sean continued.
Since Brandon had asked him to deal with Kathie before, he already had a deep impression on her. Not to mention, she made
things difficult for Janet. He couldn’t forget that.
“Shouldn’t Kathie be in Northcliffe?” Brandon chuckled.
“She probably cto Barnes because she can’t make a living in Northcliffe anymore.”
“At that time, we asked the person in charge of the Iridescent Show to blacklist Kathie. It’s normal for her to leave. She even
hooked up with Ameer Ortiz here in Barnes. I suspect she wants to retaliate against Mrs. Larson, so she asked someone to
“Kathie ran away when the accident happened, though.”
“Do you think Kathie can do that herself?” Brandon asked.
At that time, he met Kathie in Northcliffe. She was arrogant and usually bullied the weak but feared the people who were above
her. After she found out that Jwas the daughter of the White family, she becfrightened and ran away overnight.
“Mr. Larson, don’t forget that Kathie asked those models to get Mrs. Larson drunk and tried to hurt her,” Sean reminded in a low
voice.
“But she has already tried once and even paid the price. Did she really dare to do it again?” Brandon lowered his gaze and
pressed his lips into a thin line. His expression was unfathomable. “Bring Kathie and Ameer here.”
“Of course, Mr. Larson. I’ll do it right now.”
Just when Sean was about to leave, he heard Brandon call him. He stiffened and carefully turned around as he asked, “Is there
anything else, Mr. Larson?”
He knew he couldn’t avoid it.
Brandon silently looked at Sean for a few seconds before he replied, “Since you’ve worked forfor all these years, I won’t
punish you too much this time.”
“What...” Sean trailed off. It took him a while to react. Just then, his eyes widened in surprise and he couldn’t help but smile. “Mr.
Larson, you remember!”
“Only temporarily, though. I don’t know if something unexpected will happen in the future.” Brandon withdrew his gaze from Sean
and continued to read the documents that he was holding.
“But I know you’ll be fine since you’re such a good man! I just knew everything would turn out fine!” Sean excitedly wiped his
Brandon frowned. He couldn’t bear to see a grown man cry. “Don’t cry. I still have to deduct your bonus for half a year and give it
to charity as punishment for your carelessness.”
Sean’s eyes widened in shock. It didn’t take long for him to feel dejected. “That’s a little too much, Mr. Larson...” “It’s just a small
punishment for you.” Brandon coldly shifted his gaze back at Sean. “Also, don’t mention my injury in the company. If our
shareholders and partners ask, tell them that I’m on a business trip abroad.”
“Will do.”
With that, Sean obediently left.
The next day, he went to work as usual. Brandon told him that he only needed to send the documents to the hospital for him to
review and sign after work.
The news that the Larson Group’s helicopter appeared at the scene of the accident spread like wildfire.
All of the staff in the company began discussing it, which made people panic.
Since Brandon didn’t cto work the next day, the news spread, and it made people more and more worried.
By the tSean gave the tasks to each department director, he heard several of his colleagues discussing something when he
passed by the 10th floor.
“Did you hear? Mr. Larson didn’t cto work. I heard he was the one who had an accident a few days ago.”
“I can’t get any other information on what happened. I don’t know what’s going on with Mr. Larson. The media outlets aren’t
saying anything. They just completely avoid mentioning it.”
“Maybe the situation is serious. I’m afraid that Mr. Larson died in that car accident. If that’s the case, the Larson Group currently
doesn’t have a CEO.”
Just when Sean was about to walk up to his colleagues and scold them, Vivian stood up. Her tone was stern as she exclaimed,
“No gossiping during work hours! Jack, I asked you to redo the plan the other day, right? I want to see it now.”
Since everyone was intimidated by Vivian, they looked down and didn’t dare talk about the issue anymore.
Noticing that she was being too harsh, Vivian quickly softened her tone and said, “If you spread rumors like this, it will only
increase the burden on Mr. Larson and the Larson Group. I think you all know that.”
