Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 966

"I'll go and ask the doctor about Lydia's condition. You two can keep talking." Brandon nodded graciously, turned around and left the ward.

He waited until he was out of sight of Vivian before he called Sean and asked him to find out what had really happened today.

Brandon didn't believe what Vivian had just said.

And Vivian hadn't expected Brandon to leave immediately. She was a little disappointed since the whole point of this play was to make him believe her.

She had no choice but to continue chatting to Janet.

After a while, Brandon returned.

"The baby is fine and the Larson Group will take good care of Lydia. Is there anything else you need to do here, Miss Cooper?" His tone was deadpan.

A glimmer of embarrassment flashed across Vivian's face. "Then... I'll head back."

She stood up to leave, but before she had even taken two steps, the blood oozed from the wound on her forehead.

She wobbled before falling into Brandon's arms.

"Vivian!" Panic was all over Janet's face. She reached out to hold Vivian. "I'll help Vivian into the ward. You go find a doctor," she said to Brandon with a nervous look.

Watching Vivian being taken away by Janet, Brandon had mixed feelings.

Janet nudged him, clearly annoyed. "Don't just stand there. Vivian is seriously hurt. Ask the doctor to come and check on her. I'm worried she'll have some complications."

Brandon was left with no choice but to go and find help. The doctor soon appeared, helped Vivian into a wheelchair and pushed her off to get a CT scan.

Sean lowered his eyes. He had come to a realization. "I think they might have been sent by Jethro's previous creditor. He probably asked his men to steal the baby to threaten Lydia to accept the compensation from us and pay off her husband's debt."

Everything seemed to make sense.

"Go and get Vivian a room here. Then you can go back and have some rest."

Brandon knew when he asked Sean to leave, that wouldn't be the end of it. In fact, he had a feeling that a storm was brewing. Vivian was very suspicious...

Sean didn't move. He had no intention of leaving.

He had a strange look on his face as he hesitated for a moment. "There's one more thing. Lydia's attempt to jump off the building was recorded and posted online. People are accusing the Larson Group of being a corrupt business. They're suggesting that to make Lydia concede, we even took away her baby..."
