    The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire


    Chapter 987 Unexpected


    Seeing that everyone was in a heated discussion, Vivian joined them and pretended to be clueless.


    “Did I miss something?”


    Just as one of the women was about to exin, the person beside her suddenly nudged her shoulder.


    “Hush! Mr. Larson ising.”


    The other woman promptly shut her mouth and plopped back on her seat. Vivian turned in the direction


    of the door and saw Brandon and J walking towards them, hand in hand.


    Vivian was taken aback by the sight. How could they make up so soon? And why were they back,


    anyway?


    Everyone quieted down as the couple approached. They greeted Brandon and J as usual, as


    though nothing had happened.


    Being the cold and stoic guy that he was, Brandon simply nodded and said nothing. J, on the other


    hand, chatted with the staff with much enthusiasm.


    “I was dining here just now! You must have seen me, right? I was busy with work, so I didn’t get the


    chance toe over and say hello.” She nced at the several bottles of wine on the table and waved


    a waitress over. “Please get these people two more bottles of Domaine de La Romanee-Conti and put


    it on my tab.”


    The waitress was quite familiar with J. She and her friends had just ordered a Chateau Lafite-


    Rothschild, after all. “Of course, ma’am. I’ll bring them over right away.”


    The people at the table were initially stunned by J’s generous gift and began to refuse. “Mrs.


    Larson, the wine is too expensive, and we’ve only just met. There’s no need for you to do this.”


    Before anyone else could speak, Brandon wrapped an arm around J’s waist andined in her


    ear. “You’re so nice to this people. I don’t think you’ve ever bought me such expensive wine before.”


    “Stop it,” J whispered as she tugged on his sleeve. “Or your employees will think that I’m stingy


    with you.” The others were quick to put two and two together. Brandon had always been distant and


    unapproachable to them, but he was openly intimate with J. It seemed that their rtionship wasn’t


    at all affected by the incident a while ago.


    “I was going toe up to you and say hello myself, Mrs. Larson. But I was afraid I might disturb you.”


    The woman sitting next to Vivian wasted no time pandering to J. “I’ve seen you in the Fashion


    Weekly. I honestly thought that most distinguished female designers were hard to please, but it looks


    like I was mistaken. You’re so gentle and easygoing, Mrs. Larson. It truly is a breath of fresh air.”


    Vivian almost rolled her eyes at that. Just a few minutes ago, this same woman was backstabbing


    J among her colleagues. She had to admit, however, that J was a lot smarter than she initially


    thought. She didn’t expect the woman to turn the tables so easily. Moreover, Brandon didn’t even look


    angry in the slightest.


    Vivian was not pleased, of course. Her grip tightened around her ss. Just then the man on her other


    side leaned over the table, identally knocking her hand in the process. The momentum caused her


    to throw the contents of her ss onto herself, staining her clothes and drawing everyone’s attention.


    “Vivian?” J said, surprised to see the other woman. “Are you here for the new employees’ dinner


    party as well?” It appeared that Vivian had been hired in the end. J had a good impression of her,


    so she was eager to start a conversation. “It seems that your interview went well, huh? What’s your


    current position in the Larson Group?”


    Vivian wiped the wine off her clothes and mustered a smile. “Hello, Mrs. Larson. I wasn’t expecting to


    see you here again. I’ve been—”


    “Aren’t you supposed to be getting your purse, honey?” Brandon interrupted unceremoniously. “The car


    is waiting outside. We should hurry.”


    His arm slid up to J’s shoulder. He was just about to usher her away when the waitress returned


    with the wine.


    “Your wine is here.”


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    After setting the bottles on the table, she turned to J and said, “I apologize, ma’am, but you haven’t


    paid your bill yet. We took the liberty of adding the charges for your couple’s suite as well. If you no


    longer need the room, you may proceed to the front desk and cancel the reservation.”


    Vivian’s eyes widened at the waitress’s words. She quickly averted her gaze and turned away.
