Chapter 635
But now she still needed to pacify Catherine, so she immediately explained, “It’s true. I have been working at the Larson Group recently.”
Just as Catherine got furious and was about to hang up the phone, Vivian begged, “But I have my own cross to bear. Mom, you must hear me out!”
Catherine had planned to hang up the phone and brush Vivian off like yesterday’s 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 sheep’s 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.
“The only reason I work in the Larson Group is to help the children that Charis had funded before.” Vivian’s voice was ch*oked with emotion, “When I visited the children in the welfare house, I found that they were living a life of quiet desperation. After Charis’ death, her previous position at the Larson Group had been left vacant. Brandon didn’t 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, she’d 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.”
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 wouldn’t hold anything against her anymore. Sure enough, Catherine’s tone was not as frosty as before. She said helplessly and worriedly, “Charis cared about those children very much before. Remember to see it through to the end.”
Catherine thought it over. “You must leave the Larson Group before I and Luke come back. If Luke finds out that you are working for Brandon, you won’t 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.”
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 wouldn’t be at his beck and call this time!
Taking a deep breath, Vivian held her phone tightly and called Jeremy.
“Are you finally available to talk to me now?”
There was contempt and banter in Jeremy’s tone as if he was talking to a misbehaved child.
Vivian was disgusted with Jeremy’s attitude. It was clear as day that he never took her seriously.
“You did it, didn’t you?” Vivian gritted her teeth and trembled with anger, nearly bursting.
Jeremy was not about to beat around the bush. “You’d 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.”
