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

Regardless of what Garrett's reason was, how could he be outside drinking while Laney was fighting for her life in the delivery room?

"I don't care what excuses he has. The fact is that Garrett is being so irresponsible!"

Janet's anger rose like a tide at the mere thought of it. "I even lied to Laney for his sake. I never thought he would go so far. I am never going to forgive him!" Brandon frowned and persuaded, "Maybe he had a good reason, and we'll know why he did it when he gets back."

Janet snorted coldly, absolutely dissatisfied with Garrett's behavior.

Noticing how angry she was, Brandon could not help but rub her head dotingly as he comforted her, "Don't worry. Laney is going to be fine. The doctor Frank recommended is a world-class physician. He can certainly save Laney."

Janet slowly began to feel relieved under his comfort. However, she couldn't help staring at the delivery room nervously while praying in her heart that Laney would be safe and sound.

Time passed, and Janet leaned against Brandon's shoulder drowsily until the delivery room was finally open.

Janet ran over to the doctor as soon as she saw him walking out. "How is she, doctor?"

"The patient is out of danger."

As he was talking, one of the nurses pushed Laney out of the delivery room in a stretcher.

Janet wasn't fully relieved until she saw that Laney

was fine. Brandon also sighed with relief as they both followed Laney to the ward.

As soon as they entered the ward, the bodyguards, who were watching Leo and Vera, came over to report that Leo and Vera were making a fuss, demanding to see their grandchild. Since Laney was out of danger now, there was no reason for Branson to detain them anymore, so he waved to the bodyguards, signaling them that they could let Leo and Vera see the baby. Leo and Vera were frustrated after being in the VIP room for several hours. Since they were allowed to leave, they immediately headed to the hospital nursery where the baby was. Vera's heart warmed up when she saw the baby sound asleep in the incubator. "Oh! My little granddaughter is so adorable!"

Though Leo wasn't as expressive as his wife, his eyes were also filled with love.

"Why has Laney given birth to the baby before the due date?" Leo asked, knowing that there was still time for the due date. He couldn't help sensing that something must be amiss. "Was something really wrong?"

Vera was still immersed in joy at the sight of the baby, so when she heard Leo's words, she casually said, "It's not that big of a deal to give birth a few days before the due date. It is more common than you think."

After hearing that, Leo's doubts were dispelled.

They watched the baby for a while before they were ready to leave, feeling satisfied. However, as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they ran into Garrett, who was running towards them anxiously. "How... How is Laney?"

Garrett was still hung-over. He pulled Leo aside and added, "Is she okay?"

Only then did Leo and Vera notice that he looked

very unkempt and smelled of alcohol. He wasn't even wearing his shoes right, which made him look like a mess.

"What's wrong with you? You're a dad now. How can you still act so unreliable?" Leo rebuked deeply. Vera also frowned with dissatisfaction and said, "Clean yourself up before you go to see your daughter." Garrett's eyes turned red with disappointment. "I am asking you about Laney! How is she? Do you only care about the baby? Laney was fighting for life in the delivery room. Didn't you two go and see her?" Leo and Vera looked at each other awkwardly and finally realized that they had completely forgotten about Laney.
