    The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire


    Chapter 1023 Suspecting Kathie


    After Sean returned to the Larson Group, he began dealing with the matter of the car ident.


    “I checked the surveince video from the parking lot. The convertible was in a rtively backward


    position and there were two cars in front of it, so I couldn’t see clearly who tampered the car at that


    time simply from the footage.”


    Brandon closed the file. “Is the vehicle’s dashcam still there?”


    He remembered that the convertible was badly damaged at that time. Whether or not they could get the


    video from the dashcam remained a question.


    “The dashcam was burnt down and is being repaired at the moment,” Sean answered. “But I did see an


    acquaintance at the banquet.”


    Brandon raised an eyebrow. His full attention was on Sean.


    “I saw Kathie at the banquet,” Sean continued.


    Since Brandon had asked him to deal with Kathie before, he already had a deep impression on her. Not


    to mention, she made things difficult for J. He couldn’t forget that.


    “Shouldn’t Kathie be in Northcliffe?” Brandon chuckled.


    “She probably came to Barnes because she can’t make a living in Northcliffe anymore.”


    “At that time, we asked the person in charge of the Iridescent Show to cklist Kathie. It’s normal for


    her to leave. She even hooked up with Ameer Ortiz here in Barnes. I suspect she wants to retaliate


    against Mrs. Larson, so she asked someone to tamper the convertible.” Sean went silent for a moment


    as he thought about it. He thought that Kathie was the most suspicious. “Kathie ran away when the


    ident happened, though.”


    “Do you think Kathie can do that herself?” Brandon asked.


    At that time, he met Kathie in Northcliffe. She was arrogant and usually bullied the weak but feared the


    people who were above her. After she found out that J was the daughter of the White family, she


    became frightened and ran away overnight.


    “Mr. Larson, don’t forget that Kathie asked those models to get Mrs. Larson drunk and tried to hurt her,”


    Sean reminded in a low voice.


    “But she has already tried once and even paid the price. Did she really dare to do it again?” Brandon


    lowered his gaze and pressed his lips into a thin line. His expression was unfathomable. “Bring Kathie


    and Ameer here.”


    “Of course, Mr. Larson. I’ll do it right now.”


    Just when Sean was about to leave, he heard Brandon call him. He stiffened and carefully turned


    around as he asked, “Is there anything else, Mr. Larson?”


    He knew he couldn’t avoid it.


    Brandon silently looked at Sean for a few seconds before he replied, “Since you’ve worked for me for


    all these years, I won’t punish you too much this time.”


    “What…” Sean trailed off. It took him a while to react. Just then, his eyes widened in surprise and he


    couldn’t help but smile. “Mr. Larson, you remember!”


    “Only temporarily, though. I don’t know if something unexpected will happen in the future.” Brandon


    withdrew his gaze from Sean and continued to read the documents that he was holding.


    “But I know you’ll be fine since you’re such a good man! I just knew everything would turn out fine!”


    Sean excitedly wiped his tears.

    Brandon frowned. He couldn’t bear to see a grown man cry. “Don’t cry. I still have to deduct your bonus


    for half a year and give it to charity as punishment for your carelessness.”


    Sean’s eyes widened in shock. It didn’t take long for him to feel dejected. “That’s a little too much, Mr.


    Larson…” “It’s just a small punishment for you.” Brandon coldly shifted his gaze back at Sean. “Also,


    don’t mention my injury in thepany. If our shareholders and partners ask, tell them that I’m on a


    business trip abroad.”


    “Will do.”


    With that, Sean obediently left.


    The next day, he went to work as usual. Brandon told him that he only needed to send the documents


    to the hospital for him to review and sign after work.


    The news that the Larson Group’s helicopter appeared at the scene of the ident spread like wildfire.


    All of the staff in thepany began discussing it, which made people panic.


    Since Brandon didn’te to work the next day, the news spread, and it made people more and more


    worried.


    By the time Sean gave the tasks to each department director, he heard several of his colleagues


    discussing something when he passed by the 10th floor.


    “Did you hear? Mr. Larson didn’te to work. I heard he was the one who had an ident a few days


    ago.”


    “I can’t get any other information on what happened. I don’t know what’s going on with Mr. Larson. The


    media outlets aren’t saying anything. They justpletely avoid mentioning it.”


    “Maybe the situation is serious. I’m afraid that Mr. Larson died in that car ident. If that’s the case,


    the Larson Group currently doesn’t have a CEO.”


    Just when Sean was about to walk up to his colleagues and scold them, Vivian stood up. Her tone was


    stern as she eximed, “No gossiping during work hours! Jack, I asked you to redo the n the other


    day, right? I want to see it now.”


    Since everyone was intimidated by Vivian, they looked down and didn’t dare talk about the issue


    anymore.


    Noticing that she was being too harsh, Vivian quickly softened her tone and said, “If you spread rumors


    like this, it will only increase the burden on Mr. Larson and the Larson Group. I think you all know that.”
