The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Chapter 413

Janet was so angry that her whole body was trembling. Her mind was in a mess, and she felt like the whole world had been turned upside down. She didn’t know what was true versus what was just deliberately created to deceive her. Everything now seemed fake and strange.

As soon as she walked out of the hotel, she saw that Garrett was standing outside, along with several senior executives of the Larson Group. Janet often ran into them in the elevators.

“Hey, Janet! Where’s Ethan?” Garrett pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and smiled flatteringly. If he got along well with Janet, he would have more vacations in the future.

But upon a closer look, he realized that she was crying bitterly.

Garrett had thought that the two would reconcile, but it turned out to be the opposite. So he immediately stopped smiling and stammered, “I’m sorry, I…”

Janet simply ignored him. Looking around, she found that the senior executives of the Larson Group who should have been in that club were all standing outside. Perhaps they didn’t know what to do, so they had all waited for Ethan here.

When Janet walked out of the hotel so aggressively just now, everyone exchanged glances and then looked away, pretending not to have seen her.

Janet wiped the tears on her face with the back of her hand and proceeded to leave, but Garrett stopped her.

“Janet, sometimes Ethan’s terrible with words, but I’m with him every day. I know that he only cares about you.” Garrett touched the back of his head awkwardly, glancing anxiously at the hotel from the corner of his eyes. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Damn it! Janet was running away! Why hadn’t Ethan come out to chase after his wife yet?

With Garrett blocking her way, Janet crossed her arms over her chest and sneered. “I’m now the wife of Mr. Larson. How dare you stop me?”

Her chilling gaze sent a shiver down his spine.

Janet and Ethan had been together for a long time, so now even their tones were practically the same.

“Janet, you misunderstand me. I didn’t mean to stop you.” Seeing that Janet was so angry, Garrett’s voice faltered. Finally, he stepped aside and let Janet go.

Only then did Ethan come running.

“Why didn’t you stop her?” he asked Garrett harshly.

“Bro, your wife is angry as hell right now. I couldn’t stop her! Besides, whatever you say now might only add fuel to the fire. If she wants to leave, just let her be and give her some space. Just follow her from a distance.” Garrett wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Ethan was speechless. He had no choice but to chase after Janet himself.

It was late winter now, and the night was freezing cold.

The surrounding trees were covered in a layer of white snow.

Under the dim-lighted street lamps, the woman in a red overcoat trudged in the heavy snow. In the surrounding grey and white scenery, she was like a flickering red light.

When she saw a taxi approach, Janet hailed it.

“Where to, Miss?”

After getting in the taxi, Janet looked out of the window at the snow. She didn’t know where to go. She just wanted to leave this place.

“Wherever. If I want to get off, I’ll ask you to stop.”

The driver didn’t press her further and stepped on the gas.

Seeing Janet get into a taxi, Ethan immediately drove his own car and followed them.

Seacisco was developing rapidly and the tourism industry here was exceptional. The taxi driver drove around several scenic spots until it was late, and the taxi slowly came to a stop at the river bank.

The sounds of the ferries came closer and closer. The wind over the river, with cold snow, swept past Janet’s face and went through the gap of her scarf.
