Chapter 397
Ethan stayed in Frank’s hospital for two weeks.
Janet came to see him every morning before going to work. And after work, she would come back to see him and stay in the ward until late at night.
Janet was good at taking care of people. She was kind and considerate and would go out of the way to help others.
On the day Ethan got discharged from the hospital, he kissed Janet’s cheek and pinched her slender waist. “You are cut out to be a good wife.”
Ethan recalled their past. Janet would sometimes get pissed but never lost her temper. Even if she got angry, she would still speak softly as if she would break into tears the next second. She was a pitiful fragile doll.
Janet’s face turned beet red. “Stop it!” She pushed Ethan away. “I used to take care of Hannah. She is old, and it was more difficult than taking care of you.”
Ethan’s lips curled up into a smirk. He leaned against Janet’s shoulder and buried his face in her thick locks, inhaling her sweet scent.
The alluring scent aroused him.
“Ahem! Can you guys stop it? Ethan, you’ve just recovered. You shouldn’t indulge in any kind of physical activities until you get better,” Frank advised, clearing his throat.
Janet immediately pushed Ethan away and turned to look at Frank. “Doctor Watson, how is Ethan now? Is there any sequela of his burn?”
“I’ve tried my best, but there are still a few burn scars on his back. Luckily they are not too obvious.” After a moment’s thought, Frank added, “They won’t be visible if you turn the lights off.”
Janet glared at Ethan, her face burning with embarrassment.
However, the fact that there were still scars on Ethan’s back broke her heart.
Ethan looked up and pinched Janet’s ear.
He squinted, his eyes gleaming with mischief. “It’s okay for a man to have some scars on his body.”

The apartment where Janet and Ethan lived was burned down to ashes. Therefore, while Ethan was at the hospital, Janet had been staying at Laney’s place.
She had been busy taking care of Ethan and had no time to look for a new apartment. But now that Ethan was discharged from the hospital, she had to start looking for a place to stay.
Janet was worried.
The rent of the apartments around the Larson Group was frightening. Finding an apartment as cheap as the previous one was an impossible task.
To make matters worse, all their belongings in their previous apartment were destroyed in the fire. She had to spend a lot of money to buy new ones.
Janet was determined to find an apartment today. Just as she was about to turn off the computer and leave work, her phone chimed with a message. It was from Brandon.
“Garrett told me you don’t have a place to stay after the accident. I can provide a temporary residence for you and your husband. You can live there for the time being and then slowly start looking for a new
apartment.”
Since Brandon and Ethan looked so much alike, Janet believed they must really be twin brothers.
Therefore, she had this feeling that Brandon now regarded her as a member of his family since she married his brother.
And now, Brandon was offering to help them again. She thought Ethan had probably guessed it right. Perhaps Brandon knew that he and Ethan were brothers, and that was why he was looking out for them.
Janet thought about this and decided to put aside all her doubts.
After a moment’s hesitation, she politely accepted his offer.
She thought Brandon was simply taking care of his brother.
Once Janet agreed, Brandon instructed his staff to take her to the new residence.
At first, Janet was happy because the place was just a ten-minute walk from the Larson Group. She estimated it was the same as the community they had lived in before.
However, her body froze when she arrived at the locality.
Luxury cars like Lincoln and Maybach were parked all around the community. The trees and flowers in the garden were rare and exquisite. Inside were independent baroque-styled villas, and every building had special service staff. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
It was obviously an expensive gated community.
