Chapter 548

The woman stood in front of the reporters. Although she had a small frame, she was imposing and tough. “My name is Vivian Cooper, one of the students funded by the Larson Group. This is the Larson Group’s property! How shameless are you? Look how you’ve scared the children! I’m calling the police now!”

Natalie’s eyes lit up. Vivian seemed really tough, and the reporters all seemed genuinely intimidated in response. “We work for the public interest, and it is our obligation to report the truth to the public! If the Larson Group has been mistreating the children, we will make it known to the world!” a reporter replied.

“You want answers, do you?” Vivian looked into his eyes sharply. “My education was funded by the Larson Group. I got to graduate from university because of the Larson Group. You can direct any of your questions at me rather than scaring the children here. They’re all just kids. Don’t you see how frightened they are?”

Indeed, the children seemed terrified. The reporters finally relented to Vivian and said, “Okay, we’ll wait for you outside, Miss Cooper.”

The reporters then left with their cameras. The staff did their best to comfort the frightened children.

After taking a deep breath, Natalie said with a smile, “Thank you for being here, Vivian.”

With a relaxed look on her face, Vivian flashed Natalie her most charming smile and said, “To tell you the truth, I was scared, too. These reporters are tough. I was worried they might make something out of what I said. I think they were intimidated because I threatened to sue them and because of you. You are Mrs. Larson, after all.”

Natalie laughed. After all, all she’d done was hide behind Vivian.

But what Vivian said to her was very kind.

“Let’s go to a place where there aren’t any reporters.” Natalie and Vivian left together.
