The Brandon from two years ago was completely and utterly devoted to the Larson Group.
Nothing seemed to be able to affect his focus on work. He had zero interest in women and thought that
romance was just a distraction from success. In a word, nothing was more important than the company
he had started.
Even though Janet was his wife, the Larson Group was still much more important than her.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately decided to stay.
Brandon loosened his tie and looked at Charis with his dark eyes. “Call the staff of the network center
here.”
He put down his coat again and sat back in the chair.
Just then, Sean knocked on the door and poked his head in. “Mr. Larson, the driver’s downstairs. Shall
we go to the hospital now?”
With his eyes fixed on the screen of the computer, Brandon didn’t even bother to look up. “Go see
Janet on my behalf. If you run into her parents, just tell them that there was an emergency in the
company and I couldn’t leave.”
“Oh,” Sean replied falteringly. He felt that Brandon had been acting a little strange these days. It was
almost as though his boss had changed into a completely different person.
Sean scratched his head hesitantly. He seemed to want to say something but stopped on second
thought. Finally, he had no choice but to follow Brandon’s orders and left.
Charis also walked out of Brandon’s office with a complacent smile on her face.
Earlier that day, she had hired a hacker to attack the network security system of the Larson Group. This
attack wouldn’t cause any substantial loss to the company, but it could stall Brandon.
At the very least, Janet wouldn’t be able to see her husband today.
*******
Ever since Janet awoke, she had been restless, staring at the door of the ward expectantly.
Johanna tried to ease the atmosphere and joked around with her, but her voice fell on deaf ears.
Janet was too consumed with waiting for Brandon.
“Mom, when’s Brandon coming?” Over the past few hours, Janet had asked this question many times.
She had felt much better after the rest. “If Brandon’s too busy to come here, I can go back to see him.”
Johanna didn’t know how to explain the situation. She and Beal had called Brandon already, but the
latter said that he’d come only if he had spare time.
There was nothing she could do but try to comfort her anxious daughter. “Be patient. Brandon’s on his
way here as we speak.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door and it slowly swung open.
It was Sean who came in.
Janet’s eyes lit up with joy. “Sean! Where’s Brandon?”
Sean smiled awkwardly and put the flowers and the get-better gift basket he bought on the table. “Mrs.
Larson, Mr. Larson said he had emergency to deal with in the company, so he couldn’t come here
himself.”
The expression on Janet’s face froze and her eyes darkened. She asked Sean in confusion, “What’s
wrong? Brandon wasn’t like this before. Sean, tell me, is there something wrong? What happened to
him?”
Janet simply couldn’t believe it. She almost died at sea, yet Brandon didn’t seem to give a damn that
she was back now. Even if something important had happened in the company, how come he didn’t
even spare the time to call her?
Sean scratched his head falteringly. “Well, I don’t know for sure, but… Anyway, Mrs. Larson, are you
feeling better?”
Johanna, on the other hand, was absolutely furious. What the hell was Brandon thinking?
Janet had been waiting for him. Why didn’t he come to see his wife, who was in the hospital, in person?
He had crossed the line!
She then snapped at Sean, “Make it clear right this instant! What’s wrong with Brandon? Why hasn’t he
come himself?”
Sean felt a little aggrieved. Why did he always have to face the brunt of these situations?
He grumbled in a low voice, “It’s not just you. I also get the feeling that there’s something wrong with
Mr. Larson lately. After Mr. Larson fainted on the rescue ship, Charis sent him to the hospital. And ever
since he came back to the company, he seems to have changed into a completely different person. I
even feel that… It seems that he has become the Mr. Larson from two or three years ago. He’s more
devoted to his work than ever and is cold to everyone.”
“Wait. Did you just say that Charis is back?” At the mention of Charis’s name, Janet nearly jumped out
of bed in shock.
She knew perfectly well just how much Brandon hated Charis. She highly doubted that the relationship
between the two would ever be repaired.
“Yes. Mr. Larson only trusts her now. He’s on guard against anyone else.” Sean looked at Janet
helplessly.
When Janet heard this, she was even more shocked.
Charis was in love with Brandon. It wasn’t too out of the ordinary that she rushed him to the hospital
when he fainted. However, Brandon had already cut all ties with Charis. And the last time they saw
Charis, Brandon was clearly disgusted with her and was vigilant against her approach. Why did he
change his attitude toward her all of a sudden?
“Sean, do you know why Brandon suddenly trusts only Charis?” Janet clenched the blanket in her
hand.
Something must have happened!
