Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1049

Jeremy looked at Vivian with a somber expression. Slowly averting his eyes, he produced a document from his briefcase.

The document's content was shocking. It contained details and research about Brandon's condition. Vivian went through it quickly. Suddenly, her eyes stopped moving.

"What is this? When did Brandon lose his memory? Is this some kind of joke?" Vivian didn't know what to feel or think. She felt like she was in a dream as a sense of shock came over her. Surely, this must be nothing more than a stupid prank.

Jeremy didn't respond and continued to hold the same expression. Somehowcomposingherself again, she flipped through the rest of the pages. It was true. This was no joke. Her mind started thinking back to the times she had spent with Brandon, trying to scout clues. Surely, she could have found out through some conversation with him, some small detail he'd have given away... but no, that wasn't the case.

"I... I can't believe it. Brandon hid it so well. He even hid it from Janet! How did you find out?" Jeremy sneered and then said softly, "Brandon's condition has consequences for everyone. This document has detailed records, which can easily shake the whole Larson Group once it's made public."

Vivian's eyes widened at what she had just heard. "No, Larson Group is one of the most powerful companies in Barnes. It cannot fall down that easily. You are oversimplifying it."

Jeremy retorted quickly, "No, Vivian. You're undermining Brandon's presence in the company.

All the partners associated with Larson Group value him. It is his decision-making and intelligence that have made the company what it is today. But would any of them continue to trust him now that he is suffering from memory loss and intellectual deterioration?"

Vivian could see his point. It made complete sense to her, which only caused her to feel more flustered and inexplicably anxious.

She had many questions and she still couldn't wrap her head around the information dropped on her. It was a lot to take in. Confused, she asked, "How did Brandon get amnesia? He is so young and looks healthy. Besides, how do you know all this?"

Vivian was shaking with restlessness. A myriad of questions arose in her mind.

She didn't think Jeremy would be so aware of the domestic affairs since he had been abroad all year around.

Other than being her teacher and mentor, did Jeremy have a secret identity she didn't know about?

"I am surprised you don't. You really don't know that it was Charis, who you admired so much, that caused Brandon's memory loss?" asked Jeremy.

For Vivian, it was another shock. The world seemed to have shifted from beneath her feet. "How could that happen?"

"How could it not? Charis worked so hard to get Brandon. Poisoning him might have been just a piece of cake for her," Jeremy said in an indifferent tone.

"That's impossible!" Vivian shook her head and cried out. She had always seen Charis as a righteous, honest and gentle woman. All she knew was that Charis was madly in love with Brandon. These accusations of her plotting and scheming were driving Vivian insane.
