The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet)

Garrett returned home right away after leaving the club. The light was still on, and it appeared to be quite cozy.

When Garrett opened the door, he noticed Laney enjoying the strawberries while sitting on the couch. Laney glanced at the TV but directed her question towards her husband. "How is it going? Was Brandon severely hurt? Didn't you take him to the hospital?"

"I returned to keep you company after leaving him with Janet." Garrett moved over and sat down, fondling Laney's round belly lovingly. "Did you miss me tonight, my little angle?" He was so in love with the baby that he wanted to hold Laney's belly and kiss it.

"I think your acting skill is continually improving. Have you ever thought of acting professionally?" Laney bit the strawberry in her hand, expressionless.

Garrett looked at her with a surprised look, smiled, and said, "Honey, I was about to explain it to you, but you've already guessed it." He had planned to tell her the whole truth.

With a faint smile, Laney said, "Don't forget what my job was before. It's easy-peasy to figure out your ruses. Janet wouldn't have fallen into your trap tonight weren't it for her devotion to Brandon." Garrett sighed and cradled Laney in his arms.

She was about to give birth, but Garrett still effortlessly lifted her, placed her on his lap, and said, "You are still too light. You need to eat more. By the

way, you didn't see how embarrassed Brandon was tonight, did you? That was really funny!"

"I'm sure it took him a lot of effort to make Janet forgive him. I knew he liked her while I was a bodyguard for the Larson Group. And he deserves a second chance."

She sighed slightly, thumped Garrett's arm, and flirtatiously said, "You're not allowed to come back so late in the future. I was really concerned about you." "Once I finish my work in a few days, I'll stay with you every single day."

Garrett suddenly smiled and sighed, his hand on her belly. "You have excellent anti-reconnaissance skills, and our baby must be extremely intelligent in the future. It would be preferable if the baby is a girl. She must be beautiful, with big eyes like yours."

"We don't know the gender yet. Do you just assume it's a girl? I believe your parents are looking forward to having a grandson." Laney seemed concerned.

Suddenly, she frowned, covered her belly, and breathed deeply. "The baby seems to be kicking me."

Garrett jumped to his feet, carried her to the bed, pointed at her belly, and said, "The baby is strong and likes to kick at night. It's likely a boy."

Laney lay down on the bed with difficulties. She was still concerned after giving it some thought. "Please, give me my phone. I'm worried Janet may call me later."

Frowning, Garrett said, "Don't worry about Brandon and Janet now that you're so tired. Just rest. I'll tell you all about it in the morning."

The next morning, Brandon turned over to cuddle Janet beside him, but the thing he touched was unexpectedly soft. When he opened his eyes, he found himself holding a pillow.

He hurried downstairs. Janet was having breakfast. She pointed at the opposite seat when she saw him.

A spread of delicious breakfast was on the table,

with toast, eggs and sausages.

Brandon sat down and took a subconscious look around. This wasn't their own house, but Malus Bay, the estate belonged to the White family.

"Well, let's eat. What exactly are you looking at?" Janet took a tissue and wiped her lips slowly. She said calmly, "I should not have given in to temptation last night. I regretted it when I woke up today. Please eat breakfast and leave, or I will find another place to live."

"But we've reconciled, haven't we?" Brandon paused his eating and asked, hoarsely, "Or why did we sleep together last night?"

"You can forget about what happened last night. I'm leaving right now. Take your time, and remember to clean up after breakfast." Janet eventually got to her feet and left the villa.

Brandon placed down the fork and rubbed his hair indignantly. His eyes glowed with rage.

He had assumed that Janet had forgiven him after last night's sex.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number after some thought. "Sean, go investigate which houses are owned by the White family around Malus Bay."

He would relocate here because Janet refused to go back. Even though Malus Bay was quite far from the downtown, it didn't matter.
