Chapter 652 Behind him, Vivian crossed her arms over her chest and muttered something under her breath.
âHypocrite.â
It was also thanks to Charis that the Larson Group had come so far. But Brandon never mentioned her.
The bastard even thanked Garrett, who had already volunteered to quit the company, yet not once did he utter Charisâ name.
Charis had done nothing to harm the companyâs interest, but she had somehow become a stain to its reputation, one that wasnât even worth acknowledging.
Vivianâs hands balled into fists. She gritted her teeth so hard that her lips turned pale.
âVivian,â a colleague nudged her side, pulling her back from her reverie.
âMr. Larson has finished his speech.â
Brandon offered a sincere bow to the audience and turned his gaze toward the huge screen display.
âNow, please direct your attention to the screen. I will be showing you what is next for the Larson Group, the plans Iâve made for our future.â
Vivian lowered her head to hide the cunning smile that curled on her lips. She had made plans of her own.
Instead of business plans and proposals, the screen was about to show Brandonâs medical records.
She couldnât wait for the display to turn on, and the pandemonium that she was sure would follow.
âMr. Larson has finished his speech.â
When the music began, however, the invitation to the Larson Groupâs anniversary party appeared on the big screen!
âHow could it be the invitation to the Larson Groupâs fifth anniversary party?â
Vivianâs eyes widened in shock. She had double-checked the information to make sure that everything was in order.
The audience was also surprised by what they saw on the big screen.
People started whispering.
âWhat does Mr. Larson mean?â
Brandon, on the other hand, did not change his expression. He simply stared at them.
After the initial shock, Vivian regained her composure. She carefully looked up the stage and noticed Brandonâs dismissive gaze. Her heart beat faster.
Brandon spoke calmly to explain the invitation.
âWe wish to invite everyone present to the Larson Groupâs anniversary party. It is our way of welcoming you to join us to the celebration and witness the Larson Groupâs growth.â
Liam Lewis, who had earned a lot of attention, was moved and applauded loudly.
âDo you think Mr. Larson thinks highly of my performance, Mr. Harding?â
Liam couldnât help but ask Garrett.
âHe even made such a significant announcement at our cooperative projectâs press conference.â
Garrett was also applauding.
âPerhaps,â he said with a smile as he looked up and down at Liam.
Vivian calmed down, lowered the microphone, and fired the pre- programed ribbon spray.
The colorful ribbons soaring through the air drew everyoneâs attention Vivian then instructed the staff to distribute the gifts to the guests.
A coworker saw that Vivian was leaving. She asked her curiously, âAre you going somewhere?â
âIâll have to pick up some documents from Mr. Larsonâs office,â Vivian said casually.
The cover of colorful ribbons and excited employees made the venue very lively.
Vivian dashed through the crowd. She ran to the stairs and out into the parking lot. She slowed down and looked back. She tried to catch her breath after realizing no one had followed her.
The events of the day had shown her that she had been completely exposed.
But how did Brandon learn about her revenge plan? Everything had been in order. She had meticulously considered every detail in the plan.
Yet, all along, Brandon knew what was going to happen and was prepared for it.
When did he become suspicious of her? Vivian couldnât put her finger on what went wrong.
Vivian took a deep breath to calm herself down.
Luckily, she had planned an escape route in case her revenge plan failed.
There was a bag hidden in her car, which contained some cash and a fake ID card. She could still get away, but leaving Bames might be a little difficult right now. She was terrified of meeting Brandonâs men.
Vivian needed someoneâs assistance, and she immediately thought of the all-powerful Jeremy. She called Jeremy right away.
When Jeremy heard the worried voice on the phone, he didnât seem surprised.
âWhy do you call me at this hour?â he asked, a faint smile on his face.
Vivian was direct and to the point.
âJeremy, please do me a favor. I need to leave Barnes right now.â
Jeremy pretended to be confused.
âIâve watched the live broadcast of the Larson Groupâs press conference today and it looks like itâs going well. Why do you want to run away?â
âDonât pretend you donât understand! You do! My plan failed, and Brandon wonât let me go!â Vivian said through gritted teeth.
âYou donât have much time.â Jeremy sneered as he looked at his watch.
His voice sounded casual and even a bit cheerful, which did nothing to calm Vivianâs nerves.
Vivian bit her bottom lip.
Jeremyâs tone suggested that he had given up on her.
Vivian, on the other hand, was adamant.
âJeremy, please help me! Give me another chance. I can still help you!â she pleaded, swallowing her resentment and anger.
âThereâs no more chance for you,â Jeremy said flatly.
âDo you think youâve fallen into Brandonâs trap because youâre careless? No. He made such a scene today just to catch you.â
Vivian was surprised.
Jeremy seemed to know Brandon rather well.
Despite the fact that he wasnât part of the Larson Group, he seemed to know clearly how the situation was developing. She felt a shiver run up her spine.
Vivian clenched her fists and wished she could get another chance.
Jeremy interrupted her.
âThereâs no doubt youâll be caught by Brandon, and heâll question you about whoâs behind it,â Jeremy predicted.
âEven if you give me away, I can still get away with it,â he cautioned.
âSo, Vivian, youâd better be wise.
Keep your mouth shut.
Remember the friendship we formed as teacher and student over the years.â
Vivian felt as if a bucket of ice water had been dumped on her.
âAre you not going to save me?â she cried, her voice shaking.
âIf I save you, I will definitely expose myself,â Jeremy said, his tone relaxed.
âGive up, Vivian. Youâre doomed.â
Keep your mouth Vivianâs heart trembled violently. She was so flustered that she couldnât speak properly.
