Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1116

Garrett returned home right away after leaving the club. The light was still on, and it appeared to be quite cozy.

When Garrett opened the door, he noticed Laney enjoying the strawberries while sitting on the couch. Laney glanced at the TV but directed her question towards her husband. "How is it going? Was Brandon severely hurt? Didn't you take him to the hospital?"

"I returned to keep you company after leaving him with Janet." Garrett moved over and sat down, fondling Laney's round belly lovingly. "Did you miss me tonight, my little angle?"

He was so in love with the baby that he wanted to hold Laney's belly and kiss it.

"I think your acting skill is continually improving. Have you ever thought of acting professionally?" Laney bit the strawberry in her hand, expressionless.

Garrett looked at her with a surprised look, smiled, and said, "Honey, I was about to explain it to you, but you've already guessed it." He had planned to tell her the whole truth.

With a faint smile, Laney said, "Don't forget what my job was before. It's easy-peasy to figure out your ruses. Janet wouldn't have fallen into your trap tonight weren't it for her devotion to Brandon."

Garrett sighed and cradled Laney in his arms.

She was about to give birth, but Garrett still effortlessly lifted her, placed her on his lap, and said, "You are still too light. You need to eat more. By the

way, you didn't see how embarrassed Brandon was tonight, did you? That was really funny!"

"I'm sure it took him a lot of effort to make Janet forgive him. I knew he liked her while I was a bodyguard for the Larson Group. And he deserves a second chance."

She sighed slightly, thumped Garrett's arm, and flirtatiously said, "You're not allowed to come back so late in the future. I was really concerned about you." "Once I finish my work in a few days, I'll stay with you every single day."

Garrett suddenly smiled and sighed, his hand on her belly. "You have excellent anti-reconnaissance skills, and our baby must be extremely intelligent in the future. It would be preferable if the baby is a girl. She must be beautiful, with big eyes like yours."

"We don't know the gender yet. Do you just assume it's a girl? I believe your parents are looking forward to having a grandson." Laney seemed concerned.

Suddenly, she frowned, covered her belly, and breathed deeply. "The baby seems to be kicking me."
