The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Chapter 513

Johanna was at least pleased that Ethan actually called the Whites’ residence so soon. She had also experienced such a thing before. In the past, she had fought with Beal many times while she was in love with him and even after they got married. As long as they could handle themselves well, it was not altogether a bad thing.

“Never mind, don’t worry about it. Just let Janet stay here with us for a few days. I’ll go upstairs and check on her now.” Johanna didn’t ask any more questions.

She wanted to let them deal with the matter themselves first and if they couldn’t reconcile, she would help them out later.

After hanging up, Ethan became calmer. At least, Janet wasn’t wandering the streets anymore and she was safe at home at the Whites now.

This proved to be a sleepless night for Ethan.

He tossed and turned the whole night while in bed.

Now that he had calmed down and thought it all over again, he felt that Janet’s reaction at that time seemed to be genuine. So someone had really set her up. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

After all, as far as he knew about her, she was not cut out for a lair. If she was discovered to have an affair, she would never react in such a firm and indignant manner in the first place.

Ethan got up and turned on the light. The room was lit up right away.

He picked up his phone and looked at the anonymous message again.

So who sent that message to him? How could the person know Janet’s phone password and the existence of a well-hidden secret album on her device?

When Ethan first saw the photo, he was so angry that he didn’t have the chance to think much about the details. Now, when he thought back to this matter, he also felt that there were many suspicious things going on.

And how did this person have his phone number?

The one who would do such a thing could only be one of Janet’s colleagues.

Ethan proceeded to give Garrett a call.

When Garrett picked up, he seemed angry once again.

“Brandon, your identity as mighty Mr. Larson has already been made public. Why can’t you fix your own problems by yourself?” Ethan had woken up Garrett in the middle of the night and his voice sounded extremely agitated as a result.

After all, he was the only successor of the Harding family with a high status. However, when he worked for Ethan, he felt that he became Ethan’s slave.

Ethan uttered in a casual voice, “I happen to be dealing with the business of the branch of the Larson Group in Barnes now. You should have a lot of free time now, since the company’s main focus has been transferred to Barnes after all.”

Garrett was at a loss for words upon hearing Ethan say that. With a guilty conscience, he held back his rage and clenched his teeth secretly. What Ethan said was indeed true. Right now, there was no important work in the company in Seacisco. Garrett had nothing to do in the company all day.

Noticing that Garrett did not say anything, Ethan said in a serious voice, “If you don’t want to investigate this matter, just come to Barnes and watch over the overall situation. I’ll then be able to investigate it by myself.”

Garrett would never go to Barnes to deal with all those troublesome matters. Thus, he quickly promised, “I see, I’ll investigate this matter right away.”

*******

Inside the White family’s house in Barnes.

Janet threw herself onto the bed, covered herself with the quilt, and sobbed into it. She felt so wronged.

She did nothing wrong. She had explained her side of the story to Ethan. And the photo album wasn’t even created by her.

Obviously, Ethan didn’t believe her words, judging from his look and attitude earlier.

After she cried for about 30 minutes, Janet gradually calmed herself down.

She told herself she couldn’t just let go of this matter when someone was trying so hard to set her up.

She got out of the bed, wiped her tears, opened the photo album, and began to seriously go over the entire thing in her head.
