The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 548

Chapter 548

The woman stood in front of the reporters. Although she had a small frame, she was imposing and tough. “My name is Vivian Cooper, one of the students funded by the Larson Group. This is the Larson Group’s property! How shameless are you? Look how you’ve scared the children! I’m calling the police now!”

Natalie’s eyes lit up. Vivian seemed really tough, and the reporters all seemed genuinely intimidated in response. “We work for the public interest, and it is our obligation to report the truth to the public! If the Larson Group has been mistreating the children, we will make it known to the world!” a reporter replied.

“You want answers, do you?” Vivian looked into his eyes sharply. “My education was funded by the Larson Group. I got to graduate from university because of the Larson Group. You can direct any of your questions at me rather than scaring the children here. They’re all just kids. Don’t you see how frightened they are?”

Indeed, the children seemed terrified. The reporters finally relented to Vivian and said, “Okay, we’ll wait for you outside, Miss Cooper.”

The reporters then left with their cameras. The staff did their best to comfort the frightened children.

After taking a deep breath, Natalie said with a smile, “Thank you for being here, Vivian.”

With a relaxed look on her face, Vivian flashed Natalie her most charming smile and said, “To tell you the truth, I was scared, too. These reporters are tough. I was worried they might make something out of what I said. I think they were intimidated because I threatened to sue them and because of you. You are Mrs. Larson, after all.”

Natalie laughed. After all, all she’d done was hide behind Vivian.

But what Vivian said to her was very kind.

“Let’s go to a place where there aren’t any reporters.” Natalie and Vivian left together.

After settling down the kids, Natalie started to chat with Vivian.

Natalie liked Vivian instantly. “So you said that you’re also one of the students funded by Brandon?”

“Of course, Mrs. Larson. I owe it to the Larson Group’s funding that I got to graduate from the university,” Vivian assured Natalie. “I am currently on a break from my studies abroad. It’s an honor to be able help with the charity event,” she added.

Even though Natalie had just met Vivian, she noticed her undeniable intelligence and kindness. She saw Vivian as a fearless lady who was ready to take on the world. She thought that with her personality, anyone would naturally gravitate towards her.

With a hint of admiration, she introduced herself, “I’m Natalie Larson, Brandon’s wife. We appreciate you coming back for the event. It’s a ple@sure to finally meet you.” Natalie graciously shook Vivian’s hand.

With a smile on her face, Vivian replied, “I know who you are, Mrs. Larson. I’m a fan of your work. I was fascinated when I saw the designs from W Marks Studio during the live broadcast of Iridescent Show. I never thought I’ll have the privilege to meet someone as exceptional as you are, Mrs. Larson.”

Natalie was used to being complimented, but she knew that Vivian spoke with sincerity. Her words were well- thought-out and they weren’t something one might hear every day.

She understood right then and there that Vivian was way ahead of her time.

The staff and volunteers distributed the snacks and candies as the children settled down. Everyone had calmed down except the one little boy who upsettingly threw his candies at Natalie.

Natalie wanted to approach the boy to talk to him, but she was worried that it would only make the situation worse. Vivian saw through Natalie’s struggle. Without missing a beat, she volunteered to talk to the boy. “Let me handle this, Mrs. Larson. Don’t worry, I have dealt with kids before,” she suggested with a confident smile.

“Thank you.” Natalie nodded with relief.
