The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 1047 Jeremy Is Back
Catherine had planned to hang up the phone and brush Vivian off like yesterdayâs news.
The Turner family and the Larson Group were like oil and water, completely incompatible. Vivian knew
this but had deliberately chosen to work with the Larson Group; it was a clear indication that she held
the Turner family in contempt.
Catherine had once held Vivian in high esteem, but now it seemed that Vivian was nothing more than a
wolf in sheepâs clothing, not to be trusted.
But when Catherine heard Vivian crying, her heart melted like butter, and she decided to give Vivian a
fair hearing before deciding anything.
âThe only reason I work in the Larson Group is to help the children that Charis had funded before.â
Vivianâs voice was ch*oked with emotion, âWhen I visited the children in the welfare house, I found that
they were living a life of quiet desperation. After Charisâ death, her previous position at the Larson
Group had been left vacant. Brandon didnât give a hoot about those orphans. I was also once a child
from the welfare house, so I could empathize with them. If Charis knew that these children were in such
dire straits, sheâd feel bad for them. So, as soon as I entered the Larson Group, I began to help these
children find other suitable sponsors. Once the task is completed, I will immediately resign from the
Larson Group.â
Vivian spoke with a sense of purpose.
On the other end of the phone, Catherine was left speechless. Vivian could sense the change in
Catherine, as Charis was a soft spot for her. Besides, Vivian had promised to quit the Larson Group in
the future, so Catherine wouldnât hold anything against her anymore. Sure enough, Catherineâs tone
was not as frosty as before. She said helplessly and worriedly, âCharis cared about those children very
much before. Remember to see it through to the end.â
Catherine thought it over. âYou must leave the Larson Group before I and Luke come back. If Luke
finds out that you are working for Brandon, you wonât be able to talk your way out of it no matter what.
The person who sent me the anonymous message must have an ulterior motive. You should also
practice caution.â
Vivian nodded in agreement. She said something nice obediently to appease Catherine.
After hanging up the phone, Vivian was so livid that she stood up from the sofa and wanted to smash
her phone to smithereens. Jeremy was always pulling her strings like a puppet master!
Damn Jeremy! She wouldnât be at his beck and call this time!
Taking a deep breath, Vivian held her phone tightly and called Jeremy.
âAre you finally available to talk to me now?â
There was contempt and banter in Jeremyâs tone as if he was talking to a misbehaved child.
Vivian was disgusted with Jeremyâs attitude. It was clear as day that he never took her seriously.
âYou did it, didnât you?â Vivian gritted her teeth and trembled with anger, nearly bursting.
Jeremy was not about to beat around the bush. âYouâd better sign the share transfer contract now
before you find yourself in a catch-22. If I tell Luke about it, you will be doomed.â
âAre you going to push me off a cliff?â Vivianâs eyes widened in anger.
âI donât want to waste my time on you. I will only give you half an hour to fax me the document.
Otherwise, you wonât like the aftermath of what Iâm gonna do!â After saying that, Jeremy hung up the
phone.
Vivian had no choice but to transfer her shares to Jeremy. She had been worried that this matter would
come to light, but she didnât expect that Jeremy was so powerful that he had concealed it from the
public. No one knew that a part of the shares of the Turner family had fallen into the hands of an
outsider, not even the Turner couple.
*******
On day two, Vivian went to work. Before entering the Larson Groupâs building, she heard her name
being called from behind.
âVivian.â
She froze and twisted her head tensely as she recognized the voice.
Jeremy stood before Vivian with hands in his pockets. The wide shoulders and long legs of Jeremy
were particularly striking. He grinned ever so slightly. Despite his kind demeanor, he gave off an icy
vibe.
Vivian stepped back unconsciously.
