Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1213

Rubbing his aching temples, Garett nodded with a gloomy expression and said, "I get what you mean, but don't worry. I will solve this issue once and for all."

Janet and Brandon exchanged glances and breathed a sigh of relief.

They found comfort in knowing that Garett hadn't reached the point of being unreasonable.

"I hope you can behave like a real man this time," Brandon said softly.

Garrett did not argue this time and said seriously, "I will. I hope you can give me all the material evidence and the information on the witnesses you have collected. I caused this, so I should solve it. I will explain it to Laney myself."

After seeing Garrett finally taking responsibility, Janet patted his shoulder and said, "It's good that you've finally thought things through. Go and deal with your wound first. Don't let Laney see it."

Garrett nodded in response, turned around, and left.

Since they were alone in the rooftop, Janet hastily stepped forward and supported Brandon, gently touching his wound. "Does it hurt?"

"Ouch!" Brandon exclaimed deliberately, his face distorted. Afraid of hurting him, Janet withdrew her hand and looked at him concernedly.

Noticing how worried she was, Brandon laughed and comforted her, "I'm fine. Garrett's injury is worse than mine."

Although he did it as a prank, Janet still felt sorry for him. She dragged Brandon to apply medicine to

his wound.

Laney slept till evening. She woke up, saw that no one else was in the room, and found it a little strange.

Usually, Garrett would be with her at times like this.

"Ian, Ian," Laney called Ian several times before he came.

Looking at her worriedly, Ian asked, "What's the matter, Mrs. Harding?"

"Where is Garrett? Why isn't he here?" Laney asked with a frown.

"Well... Mr. Harding has gone to buy some desserts for you."
