Chapter: 35 After everything that happened with the Bennetts, had anyone ever considered she might try to bring the family glory back?.. No one had taken her seriously, and all along, they had been looking right past what she was truly capable of. Few words left Millie's lips, but her thoughts stayed sharp. Despite everything, the vicious gossip online did get under her skin. She was used to criticism, but some things still hurt. Also, Brandon's opinion lingered at the back of her mind. Did he really believe all the stories about Vivian? Or worse, was he the one pulling the strings behind the scenes? At that moment, Brandon focused on handling the company's latest projects.w.. The Watson Group had grown into a powerhouse, leading breakthroughs in global tech, financial ventures, product design, and entertainment. Years back, most people only knew Watson Group as an old-school, conventional business. Transforming the company's future, Brandon introduced bold strategies and pushed for innovation on every front. Competitors gradually lost their edge as Brandon subtly, yet consistently, kept them in check. His reputation for brilliance was now well established. Although Brandon stood alone as the Watson family's only successor, he was a match for any of the city's elite clans. A string of back-to-back meetings finally ended. Brandon leaned back in his chair at the very top of the tower, rubbing his forehead to clear the tension. From the executive office, he could see the city of Crobert stretching out beyond the glass walls. In the heart of Crobert, the Watson building dominated the skyline, with busy streets weaving below. Many dreamed of standing where Brandon did. A subtle vibration from his phone broke the silence of his office..v. Vivian's message flashed across the screen. "When you wrap up at the office, want to leave together?"Elsewhere, Vivian lounged on her studio sofa, scrolling through the online chatter with a satisfied grin."Nicely done," she remarked, speaking to someone over the phone. "Keep the pressure on Millie. want my name trending everywhere before the big broadcast. Make sure everyone's talking about me."Once the call ended, Vivian faced her caregiver, impatience flickering in her eyes."Out with it," Vivian said sharply, not one for small talk. The caregiver shifted awkwardly, wrestling with her conscience."Are you sure about this, Miss Simpson?" the caregiver asked. "If Evans Entertainment decides to take legal action over copyright, what happens then?"A dismissive laugh left Vivian's lips. "Isn't ten million enough for them? What more do they want?"w.."But it still feels risky..." Concern lingered in the caregiver's voice.
