The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 1054 Suspecting The Turner family
Janet gasped as she recalled the exhilarating details of the car accident that day. The fruit knife in her palm slid from her grasp
and to the floor as her fingers shook.
Brandon picked up the sharp fruit knife and placed it on the table. As he carefully examined Janet’s fingers, he didn’t hide his
nervous expression until no wound was found on her hand.
“You should be careful.” Brandon put his arms around her shoulder and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Is there something on
your mind?”
Staring at the photo on the table, Janet asked with a frown, “Have you found the man yet?”
Brandon took a look at the photo and said, “I still haven’t found him. The man has vanished, but he was last seen in the position
depicted in the photograph.”
Janet turned to face him and her eyes widened as she grabbed his arm. “So, what are we still waiting for? Let’s go to this
location to look for him.”
After she realized that Brandon’s wound hadn’t completely healed yet, she paused and then added,
“You should stay in the hospital to recover. Sean will accompany me there.”
Brandon immediately stopped her when he heard this and bitterly said, “Honey, listen to me first, okay?” He knew Janet wanted
to solve the problem as soon as possible, but they needed to remain calm for the time being. “The location in the photo is
actually an unfinished building that belongs to the Turner Group. As such, you can imagine why getting inside would be easier
said than done.”
“Since it’s the unfinished building of the Turner family, why did the man appear there for no reason?” The frown on Janet’s face
deepened, and her eyes were filled with confusion.
Suddenly, she looked at him and lowered her voice. “Do you think the Turner family did it?”
With a complicated twist on his eyebrows, Brandon said, “It’s hard to say anything without concrete evidence. Anyway, I’ll find a
way to deal with it. Since the Turner Group is involved, we can’t take any chances that might lead to a conflict. Let’s just wait and
see.”
Janet felt deeply unsettled at the thought of having to deal with the Turner Group. After all, she was faced with a big problem that
had no easy solution. “We’ve had our share of conflict with the Turner family before. If we continue to oppose them, I’m afraid
that our families will completely fall out with each other.”
The turmoil between the Larsons and the Turners was known to almost everyone.
“No, I won’t let that happen. You just stay away from the Turner couple and Vivian for now. I’ll handle the rest.” Although Brandon
didn’t like the people of the Turner family, he was certain that Luke and Catherin would not approve of going up against the
Larson Group again. “The Larson Group is undoubtedly powerful, but after Charis’ death, the partnership between the two
families has been greatly compromised. This had caused a lot of ups and downs in the real estate industry and the Internet
industry at Barnes. As a result, the Turner family suffered heavy losses. Even if the Turners have the desire to compete with the
Larson Group, they will lack the necessary strength.”
Brandon was certain of it. He took Janet’s small hand in his and stroked it gently. “Even if a new conflict arises between the
Larson Group and the Turner family, it must be the result of Vivian’s actions. She’s making her own grave. Someone will punish
her without my assistance.”
The two looked at each other and shouted at the same time, “Luke!”
They smiled at each other, letting the stunned expression on their faces settle down.
“You’re so smart, honey.” Brandon pinched Janet’s cheeks and added, “Even if Luke won’t do anything, I still have a backup
plan. Now that Vivian is an employee of the Larson Group, she can’t escape so easily.”
“I have faith in you,” said Janet with a relieved smile. There was no doubt in her mind that Brandon would definitely try to
minimize the damage. She stared at Brandon with her bright eyes and said, “Honey, thank you for everything you’ve done in the
past few days. In fact, let me know if there is anything I can do to help you.”
Brandon understood what she was thinking. He picked up the knife on the table and peeled the skin of an apple in his hand.
“Have some fruit first.”
“Wait a minute,” said Janet, moving away from Brandon as he tried to feed her a slice of apple. She got out of bed and
rummaged through the bag of snacks on the bedside table. With a surprised look on her face, she took out a bag of onion-
flavored crisps and said, “I like these a lot! I wonder why Derek bought this flavor.”
Her expression softened and she chuckled to herself.
When Janet looked up, she noticed Brandon leaning against the headboard and staring at her. He patted the spot beside him
with a gentle smile and said, “Come on, sit on the bed and eat.”
Janet dashed over to him, snacks in her arms.
Brandon placed the sliced apple on a plate and opened the bag of crisps for her. He lovingly poked her cheek with his fingertips
and said, “Don’t eat too much junk food or you’ll have a stomach ache.” With a satisfied smile, Janet lay down on the bed with
the bag of crisps and turned on the TV. Janet burst out laughing because the TV show was so amusing.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open from the outside by a nurse, who came inside and said, “Mrs. Larson, two people claiming
to be your parents are outside, waiting for you.”
Janet crumpled the bag of crisps in her hand as she jumped out of bed with incredulous eyebrows knitting in confusion. “Who
informed my parents?”
