Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1010

Confused, Sean spun around and queried, "Mrs. Larson, what are you trying to say?"

In a mild grin, Janet said, "Tonight is all about Estella. You should have a good time with her. Please don't let me be the reason you hurt her feelings. In addition, it won't help even if you tell Estella. There would only be one more person worried sick about me."

"But..." Sean hesitated.

It was around this time when Estella walked to them. With a sly smile, she grasped Sean's arm and added, "You ignored my several attempts to reach you. The host requests a group photograph."

Estella grinned and pulled Janet along. "Hurry up! You have to be there!"

"If I go with you, Mesue won't find me when she comes back," Janet said, pinching Estella's cheek affectionately. "You're the star of the show tonight. Take Sean and get some lovely pictures. Let me be. Remember not to drink too much."

Estella pouted and replied, "Okay, be careful on your way back."

Giving Sean a gentle push, Janet smiled and said, "Go with Estella. She's all yours from now on."

After Sean and Estella left, Janet glanced at the clock on the wall.

Mesue had been out getting the car for a while. Why wasn't she there yet?

Janet anxiously called Mesue. At the same time, she walked towards the entrance of the hotel.

However, before she reached the door, she felt like someone was following her.

When Janet looked back, she didn't see anything suspicious, but that strange feeling persisted. The image of being watched popped into her mind again.

Janet was convinced that there must be someone behind her!

She'd been carrying a portable taser around ever since the last time she was involved in an accident. She stealthily reached into her bag. As soon as the person behind her got close to her, she immediately activated the taser and swung it at the person approaching her from behind.

"Ah! Hey! Do you want to kill me with that thing?" With a shriek and a moan, Janet spun around and saw Derek lying on the ground, clutching his belly.
