Chapter 967 Public Opinion Surges
When J opened her phone to check the news, she saw a video of Lydia, about to jump off the
hospital rooftop. It was right at the top of the home page of the Barnes'' biggest news website.
The entire Intemunity was up in arms about it and filled with abuse. The video of Lydia on
the rooftop had gone viral, and in it you could clearly hear Lydia''s hysterical questioning of Brandon.
Thements below were even worse. The most likedment was from someone calling for a
pushback against the Larson Group, which they said was a corrupt business. They were going to
boycott all kinds of products from the Larson Group from now on, and any high-ranking reviews
were going to be revised as best they could be, if not pulled down altogether.
"Stop watching it. It was bound to happen because these people know nothing about the truth. It will
be fine once it all dies down." Brandon turned off J''s phone and said calmly, "It won''t annoy
anybody but us."
There was nothing J could do. Staring at the calm look on Brandon''s face, she asked, "What
can I do for you?"
Brandon didn''t say anything. He was thinking hard. There were a lot of reporters outside the
hospital. It would make things difficult if they were to take photos of J.
After a long time, Brandon looked round to Sean, saying, "Take her away. Make sure she gets home
safe, okay?"
Then he looked down at J and raised his hand to stroke her smooth, soft cheek. He smiled
gently. "Wait for me there."

Night fell. After Vivian''s physical examination, a nurse pushed her into the VIP ward.
Brandon had made all the arrangements.
Vivian peered out of the window to see J leaving in a car.
"Miss Cooper, I''m going to bind up your wound. Tell me if it hurts." The nurse picked up the cotton
swabs and gauze to begin carefully bandaging the wound on Vivian''s neck.
It was clear to the nurse that Vivian was in a bad mood. She smiled and tried tofort her. "Don''t
worry, Miss Cooper. There are only bruises on your face and forehead. It might look terrible now, but
as long as you take good care of them, they won''t leave any scars."
Scars? The nurse''s words took Vivian even further down into her depression. She replied
impatiently, "I know that. No need to keep reminding me."

If it hadn''t been for the ident, Vivian would never have changed her mind and brought the baby
back.
That afternoon, Vivian had asked those two men in ck to take away Lydia''s baby, but even
though the two idiots took the baby away, they forgot to deal with Lydia first.
Vivian had been already to leave when she saw Lydia up on the rooftop, about to jump off the
building. J and Brandon were standing not that far away from Vivian and when J took the
call, she could hear Lydia asking J to give the baby back. If she didn''t, she was going to jump
off the building.
Vivian hadn''t expected Lydia would go to extremes.
It wasn''t long before the crowd grew, and with it the media presence. Vivian had no choice but to
call the two men back and get them to find a ce with surveince cameras where she could get
them to help her make it look like she''d been in a fight with them to get the baby back.
The men in ck were shocked at her request. "Miss Cooper, surely you''re still going to pay us
even if we beat you up, right?"
Holding the baby in her arms, Vivian said, with a fierce look in her eyes, "Just hit me. The harder,
the better!"
So the two men really went for it. They followed her instruction to the letter. If the doctors and
nurses hadn''te and stopped them, Vivian was afraid she might have really been killed.
Staring at the scar on the back of her hand, Vivian thought about Brandon, how he had seemed just
now, and felt a little worried.
He must have asked his men to investigate the surveince footage. But since he still hadn''te
to see her, she knew he didn''t suspect her yet.
