Chapter 1036 Assign Vivian An Important
After watching Garrett and Laney leave, Jwalked into the inpatient department carrying a chocolate hazelnut cake.
The door to Brandon’s ward was half closed and Jcould hear the men inside having a conversation when she was at the
door.
Brandon was talking very softly, and Jstrained her ears to hear the conversation.
“You can give Vivian an important position while I’m away. She is cautious and dedicated in her work. I’m sure she’s also a good
problem solver. She’ll be able to help solve a lot of troubles,” Brandon said in a meaningful tone.
“Mr. Larson, why did your opinion of Vivian change so quickly? Weren’t you still guarding against her a few days ago?” Sean
asked in confusion. He was shocked and couldn’t figure out what Brandon was thinking.
Just then, a gust of wind blew in through the window, ruffling Brandon’s hair.
Sean quickly walked over to shut the window and then turned around, asking suspiciously, “Mr. Larson, are you planning
something?”
Brandon shook his head and explained calmly, “We spent a lot of tand effort investigating Vivian, but we still can’t figure out
her plans. I just thought we could give her a chance to slip up and give herself away.”
Vivian had been working in the Larson Group for a while now, but Brandon had not given her many opportunities to learn about
“Don’t worry, Mr. Larson. I will do as you say. I will report to you timely or when a situation pops up. I’m sure that Vivian will show
her true colors soon,” Sean said respectfully as he sorted out the documents that Brandon had read. He then began to do his
own work in silence.
The ward fell silent again as if the conversation had never happened.
However, the sound of something dropping to the floor coutside the door, and the noise caught their attention. Sean stood
up vigilantly and strode towards the door, demanding firmly, “Who’s eavesdropping outside?”
“It’s me,” Jsaid awkwardly as she picked up the cake box and forced a smile.
She accidentally dropped the cake box on the ground as she becworried after seeing the serious look on Brandon’s face
during his conversation with Sean.
Sean and Brandon were stunned by her appearance.
However, Sean soon cto his senses and breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and joked, “Mrs. Larson, were you listening in
on us? You madethink that there were spies in the hospital.”
Jcin after regaining her composure. She closed the door and asked, “What were you talking about? You both looked so
serious.”
Sean kept quiet and subconsciously glanced at Brandon, who was sitting in his bed.
Brandon smiled at Jand calmly said, “Sean was just helpingarrange the work schedule for the employees in Larson
Group during my absence. What about you? I thought you would only cback after your dinner with Laney.”
Jknew he was lying. His answer was different from what she heard outside the door. She noticed that Sean was holding
sdocuments and trying to sneak away. She quickly stopped him and asked, “Sean, what’s going on?”
Sean smiled awkwardly and replied, “Mrs. Larson, you are making things difficult for me.” He sighed and continued, “My six-
month worth of bonus had already been completely deducted.”
Jlooked at Sean sympathetically and didn’t want to put him in a tight spot any longer, so she nodded and let him go.
She placed the cake box on the table, looking disappointed. She ignored Brandon the entire twhile fiddling with cake box.
Fortunately, the chocolate hazelnut cake was protected by the cake box and was still edible. However, it looked a bit squashed
and deformed.
“Honey, did you buy the cake?” Brandon asked lightheartedly.
He didn’t know how to explain his plans to Janet. She and Vivian had a friendly relationship, so he had difficulties letting Janet
know Vivian’s true colors. 4 “Do you want some?” Jasked as she felt it would be wasteful to throw the cake away. She then
put the cake in front of Brandon without waiting for his response.
Brandon smiled forcefully as he took a bite and commented, “It tastes good, although it doesn’t look so good.”
Jgave him a meaningful look and said, “It looked good before I dropped it on the ground. Let’s not waste it and finish it
together.”
She then sat at the edge of the bed, picked up her fork and started eating the cake. She noticed that Brandon was avoiding the
topic of the conversation he had with Sean, so she took the initiative to ask, “When I was outside the door, I heard you and Sean
talk about Vivian. Is there something wrong with her? Did she cause any trouble?”
Brandon felt a slight unease at her question. He put his cake on the cupboard beside his bed and held Jin his arms. He
hesitated a little before asking, “What do you think of Vivian?”
Janswered honestly, “I used to think that Vivian was a capable woman. But I ran into her scolding her coworker one time
when I visited the Larson Group. She somehow remindeda lot of Charis. To be honest, I felt a little uncomfortable by that.”
