Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1114

"Sorry, I am just too overcome with dizziness. The alcohol has taken a powerful effect on my senses." Flushed, Garrett feigned drunkenness and instability, leaning against the wall to regulate his breathing with a calm and measured rhythm.

Seizing the moment, Brandon fell into Janet's embrace, and the scent of her body swiftly masked the lingering odor of alcohol.

"Such a feeble drinker. How did you manage to consume so much when you clearly couldn't drink? Remember that Laney is still expecting you at home, Garrett." Janet could hardly carry Brandon.

"Dammit!" Why did Brandon have to behave so lecherously when drunk? His face incessantly nuzzled against hers.

Garrett roused from his daze and lifted his finger, conceding, "You're absolutely correct. My wife is at home waiting for me, so please look after Brandon. He reeks of alcohol, which won't do for my wife and child if he comes to my house. I'll make my way home first."

With a wave of his hand, Garrett pivoted on his heel and departed.

"Impossible!" Janet exclaimed and clutched at the hem of Garrett's garment before casting an embarrassed glance at Brandon. "I haven't forgiven him yet. I don't want to bring him back to my place." "There's no denying that you're legally married to Brandon, and your home is probably the best place for him to stay." Garrett sighed and shrugged.

"However..." Janet was about to speak, but Garrett cut her off and quickly answered the call.

"Laney? I'm already outside. What? You miss me already? Alright, I'll head home right away."

After ending the call, Garrett feigned embarrassment and addressed Janet, "You heard that, right? My wife called again. You should probably send Brandon home. He's had too much to drink, and I'm sure he won't cause any trouble for you."

Immediately after speaking, Garrett swiftly left.

Janet had no other option but to escort Brandon out of the club. Thankfully, the street was lined with numerous clubs and bars, making it easy for her to find a taxi.

Breathless, she helped Brandon into the car and instructed the driver to take them to their destination.

Once the taxi disappeared down the road, Garrett emerged from the corner and breathed a sigh of relief. He murmured to himself, "It's all sorted now. Whether they can reconcile or not is up to Brandon's luck."

Afterward, he departed in Lola's car.

Janet and Brandon were in the cab on the opposite side. The driver glanced over at Brandon and offered them a bottle of water. "Man, this guy is really drunk."

"Thank you. He's never been able to handle his alcohol." Janet unscrewed the bottle cap and helped Brandon drink the water. She expected him to spit it out, but to her surprise, he obediently drank most of it.

After finishing the water, Brandon held onto Janet tightly and fell asleep in Janet's arms.
