Chapter 988 Destroy The Rumors
The truth was, Vivian had known this waitress.
That was why when she recognized her at the restaurant, she informed the waitress that she was Derek’s friend and told the
waitress that Derek and Janet wanted to book a couple’s suite together. She then tipped the waitress heavily for her help in
booking it.
Vivian was a little nervous now, trying her best to keep the waitress from seeing her. She kept biting her lower lip to steady her
nerves as she couldn’t afford to expose her intentions in front of Brendan and Janet. 4
However, Vivian simply couldn’t conceal her nervousness. She knew she would be doomed if the waitress recognized her in
front of Brandon and Janet.
Vivian found an empty corner not far away and walked quickly over. She then turned away from the crowd, and lowered her head
and pretended to look at her phone. “A couple’s suite!” echoed an employee from the Larson Group. Although the waitress had
spoken softly when she was talking to Brandon and Janet, many employees had overheard her and began speculating about the
“Mr. and Mrs. Larson must be feeling romantic tonight. I guess they just want a wild night out!”
“Was it Mr. Larson who booked the room? But why does he seem angry?”
There was a wave of murmur across the room as everyone started gossiping.
Brandon’s face darkened. They had already denied the suite before, so why did the waitress ask again if they wanted to book a
suite? He was furious at the waitress ‘ lack of common sense.
“Well...” the waitress started timidly. “If you don’t want the suite, I can cancel it for you,” she continued as she realized that
something was amiss. She turned around and attempted to hurry away, but Brandon stopped her. “Who...” Brendan’s voice
trailed off as he was interrupted by Janet. (2)
“You don’t have to cancel the booking. We are taking the suite,” Janet said with a bright smile. She then hugged Brandon’s arm
and gave him a wink. “We haven’t had our alone time in a long while, have we?” she added.
Janet knew that Brandon wanted to figure out who booked the room. However, the timing was wrong. He would only be
embarrassing himself now if he asked the question. There were just too many employees around and they would figure out that it
was neither Brandon nor her who booked the suite. This would only spur more gossip about who had booked the room for them.
Janet did not want needless rumors to spread in the company.
before finding out the truth. As such, she planned to ask the waitress another time when Everybody was gone.
“Mrs. Larson, you were the one who booked the suite?” asked a female colleague in surprise. She thought that Janet was a
reserved woman and didn’t expect her to be so open-minded. Janet booked a couple’s suite for herself and Brandon so they
could have a romantic night? No wonder Brandon was so obsessed with her.
Janet pretended to be shy and placed her hand on her cheek as if to hide her blush. “Well, I didn’t expect that the waitress would
announce it in front of all of you. But it’s true that I’ve thought about spending some quality time with my husband for a long time
already. This is so embarrassing. Please, go on with your dinner. We don’t want to disturb your meal.”
With that, she took the key card from and waitress and tugged at Brandon’s arm. However, as he seemed unwilling to move, she
gave him a hard squeeze and said sweetly, “Honey, let’s go.”
Brandon felt a little helpless. He thought it strange when Derek denied booking the suite. He didn’t seem to be lying. However, if
it weren’t Derek, who else would it be? Who would be so mean as to create a misunderstanding between Janet and him?
Brandon wanted to get to the bottom of it. However, he found it interesting that Janet would say that she was the one who
booked the suite in front of all these people. After all, she was a shy woman.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw Janet acting so bold in front of so many of his employees. Before he knew it, he was
being pulled along by her. Before they left, he nodded to the employees who were still standing around and announced, “Please,
enjoy. We will be taking our leave now.” The employees all smiled and said their goodbyes.
After Brandon and Janet were gone, the employee that flattered Janet sat down and grumbled with envy, “Mr. and Mrs. Larson
seem so in love.”
