Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 971

Two days later, in the Larson Group's building.

Vivian opened the door of the meeting room. She had her long hair tied up in a ponytail, and her makeup was perfectly-applied. In her silver gray suit and leather high-heeled shoes, she looked very capable.

"I'm sorry. I'm not late, am I?" She could see that Brandon was already waiting for her as she came in, despite her having got there what she thought was 15 minutes early. She hadn't expected him to get there before her.

"No, you're not late. I came in early." Brandon put his coffee cup down carefully, his eyes not leaving the resume on the table. Under the bright lights of the meeting room, he was examining Vivian's resume.

At the sound of shuffling papers rubbing together, Vivian carefully wiped her fingers under the table.

"Miss Cooper, why do you keep trying to join the Larson Group? What is so special about us?" Brandon slowly closed her resume and looked up at Vivian in front of him. She was still young but she was dressed beyond her years to try and seem mature.

"I want to work in the Larson Group so I can prove myself. As an orphan who was funded by the Larson Group's talent plan, I really want to repay them. Why are you so wary of me, Mr. Larson?" Vivian asked. "Have I done something wrong?"

She looked so innocent, as if she didn't understand anything.

Brandon smiled slightly. "No. You haven't done anything wrong. How would you like to handle public relations for the Larson Group?"

Vivian tried to keep calm. "What's the position, exactly?"

She was worried that if she was only in public relations, it would keep her out of the core business of the Larson Group, where she felt her abilities would be better suited. Vivian shifted uncomfortably in her seat.

The Larson Group had a huge, powerful public relations team, but there were so many staff. If she was stuck in the public relations department, she couldn't get to the real power. She would only be wasting her time there.

"You've only just graduated. Working in the Larson Group would be your first job. You can't expect to have more than an internship at this stage in your career. If you want a more important position, maybe you should try the Turner Group. It isn't that easy to get a top job in the Larson Group," Brandon explained calmly.

It was obvious what he meant. If Vivian wanted to stay here, the best she could hope for was to be an intern. If she wanted a permanent position, with actual power, she'd be better off going back to the Turner Group.

She sat there and pondered it for a bit, but then came to a decision.
