The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 556

Eventually, they arrived in front of the Larson Group’s building.

Before they went inside, Natalie looked at Estella and reminded, “Don’t ask Brandon about his family

affairs and his father. Those topics are taboo for him.”

“Do you think I’m stupid?” Estella pouted. “You’re my friend, and Brandon is your husband. I’ll treat him

with the utmost respect; just like how I treat you. Besides, he’s the Larson Group’s CEO. There’s no

way I’d try to offend him.”

Natalie heaved a sigh. She felt relieved hearing that. She then took out her phone to check the time

before she said, “I asked Sean just now. Brandon is still in the middle of an interview. We’re probably This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

going to wait for a while.”

“I’ll have time to collect some materials by then,” Estella replied as she rolled up her sleeves and

prepared her recorder pen.

“What are you going to do?” Natalie couldn’t help but ask. She had a bad feeling about that.

Estella put her arm around Natalie’s shoulder and flashed a mischievous smile as she pulled her close.

“I’m going to take you with me while I interview the Larson Group’s employees. Let’s go!”

Natalie facepalmed. She felt utterly helpless. It seemed like agreeing to let Estella come to the Larson

Group was a huge mistake.

At that time, the interviews were being held inside the Larson Group’s 16th floor.

With an upright posture, Vivian sat outside the meeting room. Among all the other interviewees, she

was the one who stood out the most.

“I saw a girl come out just now and she was sweating like she had run a long way. Gosh, I wonder what

the interviewers had asked her.” The two girls who also came for interviews whispered to each other.

They also wanted to talk to Vivian.

Vivian wasn’t interested in their chitchats. After what happened in the welfare house last week, she was

quite confident that Brandon would hire her.

She had already gone through three rounds of strict interviews. This position that she applied for was to

take over some of the work that Charis had been responsible for. There were mainly two major

sections: charity work and enterprise image. She was very confident in those kinds of work,

At that time, a lady who had finished the interview came out of the office. Everyone went to her to ask

about the situation, but she frowned and dismissively waved her hand at them.

“Next is Vivian Cooper,” one of the staff informed the people waiting outside of the meeting room.

Vivian pushed the door open and walked inside. There were three interviewers. Brandon however, was

the most eye-catching person in the room.

Brandon was wearing a suit and looked like a business elite. He didn’t seem like he wanted to show off,

so he wasn’t even sitting in the middle of the table. However, he was way too eye-catching wherever he

sat.

After a brief introduction about herself, Vivian added, “I was adopted by Mr. Luke Turner a few days

ago. I’m now the adopted daughter of the Turner family.

All of the interviewers looked at Vivian in shock upon hearing that.

Brandon pressed his lips into a thin line as he quietly observed her. He was surprised that she directly

confessed her identity.

“The Larson Group and the Turner family’s relationship is quite tense because of what happened in the

past. Why do you want to work in the Larson Group now?” Brandon calmly asked, giving Vivian an

expressionless look.

Vivian shifted her gaze to Brandon and stared at him straight in the eye. “It’s exactly because of that

that you should let me join the Larson Group, Mr. Larson.”

Brandon an eyebrow. “Enlighten me, please.”

“Although the Turner family’s company isn’t as powerful as the Larson Group, it’s still a well-known

company. It also has connections with many other well -known, long-established companies.

The Larson Group is a new enterprise that has risen in the recent years. Its influence is strong, but it’s

still the newcomer in town. Offending the long-established companies that have a stable foundation

isn’t a good idea. It might even push the Larson Group to a situation where they have to fight alone if

things go downhill.

Because of its enmity with the Turner Group, some of these long-established companies here have

proposed to stop cooperating with the Larson Group. That’ll cause a huge loss to the third party’s

manufacturer,” Vivian explained.

She had already read the news beforehand, so she knew what to say during the interview in case

someone asked her that particular question.

During the past few days, a lot of workers protested in front of the Larson Group’s building. That matter

had a great impact on the company.

“It appears that you’ve done a lot of research on Larson Group. Brandon carefully looked through

Vivian’s resume. She had excellent grades and dedicated a lot of time to doing public service while she

was in college. Her efforts and perseverance made her one of the most suitable applicants for the job.

From the looks of it, Vivian was one of the best interviewees today.

“I started preparing for this interview over a month ago. That’s how determined I am to get this job. And

if I do and people find out I’m the adopted daughter of Turner Group, they’ll think that Larson Group

has given in and is willing to give the Turner Group and other companies a way out. If this happens, I

believe that the problem at hand would be settled.”

“You have a good understanding of the situation. Tell us more,” one of the interviewers asked with

interest. Judging from the look on their faces, Vivian’s vigor impressed them.

“Business is always about interest. The Larson and Turner Group won’t be enemies forever. The

Turner Group and other companies are just waiting for a perfect opportunity to end this stalemate,”

Vivian confidently replied.

Everyone in the meeting room looked at Vivian with new eyes and recognized her ability to enter the

Larson Group. However, the one who had the last say was not them but Brandon.

At this moment, all eyes were on him.

“I’m aware of the advantages of recruiting you. Although your reason sounds perfect, I’m afraid I can’t

hire you just because of your identity. I need to know why you want to work in the Larson Group. What

is your purpose?” Brandon stared at Vivian as he spoke. nobody could guess what he was thinking

right now.

“I need to prove myself,” Vivian answered resolutely. “Although the Turner family adopted me, I believe

it’s out of sympathy. But I don’t need anyone’s sympathy. I want to rely on myself and let them know

that even if I don’t have the Turner family behind me, I can still make my own name in Barnes.”

Brandon listened to every word she said.

“I’m an orphan. I was sent to an orphanage because my father abandoned me and my mother when I

was little and then my mother died of illness. Fortunately, Larson Group pay for my education. That is

one of the reasons why I want to work here. I want to contribute to the development of the company.”

Brandon had done the background check on Vivian, so he knew she was not lying.

“You took up your major abroad and did well. Did your tutor ask you to stay there after graduation?” he

curiously asked.

“My tutor, Professor Jeremy Button, and I are the only foreigners on the project team. He helped me a

lot. Actually, he’s one of the reasons why I came back.”

Vivian abruptly stopped. She had said too much just now and even mentioned her tutor’s name. She

could not tell if Brandon noticed it. The truth was, Jeremy was not a good person. He was not only

mysterious but also deceptive.

“What’s the matter, Miss Cooper?” one of the interviewers asked, snapping Vivian back to reality.

Startled, Vivian accidentally dropped the pen she was holding. “Sorry. I just suddenly thought of

something.”

Meanwhile, Brandon was staring at her without a hint of emotion in his eyes.

Vivian immediately got ahold of herself and tried to talk her way out. “I recently had a chat with the

children in the orphanage that are my age. We’re grateful to have received financial support from you.

Orphans like me don’t always have the opportunity to study. As you can see, I’m ambitious and

confident. I hope Larson Group will give me a chance to prove myself.”

She could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when she finished speaking. She deliberately brought up

her upbringing so that Brandon could relate to her. She could not tell what he was thinking, though.

Perhaps he sympathized with her…

As Brandon did not say anything, Vivian assumed that her tragic experienced moved him.

After a long while, Brandon closed Vivian’s resume and looked at her expressionlessly. “Miss Cooper,

you can leave now.”
