Chapter 1036 Assign Vivian An Important
After watching Garrett and Laney leave, Janet walked into the inpatient department carrying a
chocolate hazelnut cake.
The door to Brandonâs ward was half closed and Janet could hear the men inside having a
conversation when she was at the door.
Brandon was talking very softly, and Janet strained her ears to hear the conversation.
âYou can give Vivian an important position while Iâm away. She is cautious and dedicated in her work.
Iâm sure sheâs also a good problem solver. Sheâll be able to help solve a lot of troubles,â Brandon said
in a meaningful tone.
âMr. Larson, why did your opinion of Vivian change so quickly? Werenât you still guarding against her a
few days ago?â Sean asked in confusion. He was shocked and couldnât figure out what Brandon was
thinking.
Just then, a gust of wind blew in through the window, ruffling Brandonâs hair.
Sean quickly walked over to shut the window and then turned around, asking suspiciously, âMr. Larson,
are you planning something?â
Brandon shook his head and explained calmly, âWe spent a lot of time and effort investigating Vivian,
but we still canât figure out her plans. I just thought we could give her a chance to slip up and give
herself away.â
Vivian had been working in the Larson Group for a while now, but Brandon had not given her many
opportunities to learn about the primary operations of the Larson Group. He believed that Vivian could
feel that he was sidelining her on purpose.
âDonât worry, Mr. Larson. I will do as you say. I will report to you timely or when a situation pops up. Iâm
sure that Vivian will show her true colors soon,â 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 came outside the door, and the noise caught
their attention. Sean stood up vigilantly and strode towards the door, demanding firmly, âWhoâs
eavesdropping outside?â
âItâs me,â Janet said awkwardly as she picked up the cake box and forced a smile.
She accidentally dropped the cake box on the ground as she became worried after seeing the serious
look on Brandonâs face during his conversation with Sean.
Sean and Brandon were stunned by her appearance.
However, Sean soon came to his senses and breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and joked, âMrs.
Larson, were you listening in on us? You made me think that there were spies in the hospital.â
Janet came in after regaining her composure. She closed the door and asked, âWhat were you talking
about? You both looked so serious.â
Sean kept quiet and subconsciously glanced at Brandon, who was sitting in his bed.
Brandon smiled at Janet and calmly said, âSean was just helping me arrange the work schedule for the
employees in Larson Group during my absence. What about you? I thought you would only come back
after your dinner with Laney.â
He then patted a space beside him, motioning for Janet to sit down.
Janet knew he was lying. His answer was different from what she heard outside the door. She noticed
that Sean was holding some documents and trying to sneak away. She quickly stopped him and asked,
âSean, whatâs going on?â
Sean smiled awkwardly and replied, âMrs. Larson, you are making things difficult for me.â He sighed
and continued, âMy six-month worth of bonus had already been completely deducted.â
Janet looked at Sean sympathetically and didnât 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 time while
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.
âHoney, did you buy the cake?â Brandon asked lightheartedly.
He didnât know how to explain his plans to Janet. She and Vivian had a friendly relationship, so he had
difficulties letting Janet know Vivianâs true colors. 4 âDo you want some?â Janet asked 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, âIt tastes good, although it doesnât look so
good.â
Janet gave him a meaningful look and said, âIt looked good before I dropped it on the ground. Letâs not
waste it and finish it together.â
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,
âWhen I was outside the door, I heard you and Sean talk about Vivian. Is there something wrong with
her? Did she cause any trouble?â
Brandon felt a slight unease at her question. He put his cake on the cupboard beside his bed and held
Janet in his arms. He hesitated a little before asking, âWhat do you think of Vivian?â
Janet answered honestly, âI 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 reminded me a lot of Charis. To
be honest, I felt a little uncomfortable by that.â
