Vivian felt wronged and didn't understand why John was against her. He was not like this before.
Even if he never took the initiative to talk to her, or even bothered to respond to her, at least he had never treated her badly, much less joined in with others to bully her.
She was a Ye, how could she be expected to serve others?
She was not at all willing to take care of her aunt, and she knew the older woman did not like her either.
But her aunt held 37% shares of Ye Group, more than anyone else in her family. Even her father only had 13% shares, while her brother had 22% shares.
Kristina was the biggest shareholder of Ye Group. She had the most right to decide who would be qualified to be the company president in the future.
Vivian knew the stakes, so she heeded her mother's words and strove to suck up to Kristina.
Still, she didn't seem to be succeeding in earning her favor.
Vivian only intended to grab the opportunity to cozy up to Kristina and get an idea about how the older woman's mind worked. She had to learn what made her aunt tick so she could anticipate her future plans and movements, especially when it had to do with Kristina's share distribution.

"You had better keep your word, I have a witness here. Nina heard it clearly just now. I'll be in hospital for half a month, and you have stay and take care of me the whole time."
Kristina shook Nina's hand, and Nina joined in on her con act. "Noah, a word spoken by a gentleman cannot be taken back, I'm sure you know."
"I know, I know. I will stay with Aunt Kristina in the hospital for the next half month." Noah was helpless about it, but he still smiled gently.
It would indeed be better to spend more time with Kristina.
Kristina laughed happily as they sealed of the deal, and Nina laughed alongside her.
John was sitting on the sofa this entire time, and after what he just witnessed, his back straightened unconsciously. A slight frown furrowed his brow.
He had just learned something.
He had just learned a new technique from Kristina, and it could be summed up succinctly in two words: acting shamelessly.
He had to hand it to her; despite Kristina being a little rascal, her underhanded move worked well.
