Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1210

While Laney was busy with the fruits, Janet pulled Ian to a corner and reminded him, "Pay more attention to the parcels sent to Laney. I'm afraid something awful will come with her new parcels." Janet made sure to keep her voice quiet.

Janet was almost certain that Kailee picked the day Laney gave birth to her baby to set up a trap. It wasn't a mere coincidence that she and Garrett were at the same hotel at the same time.

Also, it was likely Kailee left some sort of evidence of that day. Photos and recordings, perhaps. Something to provoke Laney.

Ian nodded, his expression turning serious. "Don't worry. I'll pay attention to it."

At this time, a nurse came in to change Laney's dressing. Janet watched in silence, then went to pour a glass of water for Laney.

Just then, Janet caught a glimpse of a beautifully packaged box under the nurse's trolley. Red lights flashed in her mind. "What's that? Is it also for Laney?"

"Yes, this is a gift from Mrs. Harding."

The nurse took out the box from the trolley and was about to hand it to Laney, but Ian stopped her and took it instead.

"Let me see it first."

After Janet's advice, Ian was on high alert.

He was vigilant toward everything that came from the outside, fearing something in it would put Laney in danger.

On top of feeling a little surprised, Laney's interest

was piqued as well. "A gift from Mrs. Harding?"

Since giving birth, she avoided any contact with the Harding family. She wasn't expecting Vera would take the initiative to send her something. The package seemed to be a gift, which was surprising.

Janet stared at the parcel with a frown. Her instincts told her something was off with it.

It was hard to believe Vera would be so kind as to prepare a gift for Laney.
