Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 1307

"Speaking of which."

Garrett's tone took on a plaintive quality as he lamented to Janet, "It's all because you found Laney such an exceptional assistant. It's made winning back my wife even more challenging."

"Ian? How has he stopped you from pursuing your wife?"

Garrett scoffed, explaining, "Did you know he's the one who sent the divorce papers and wedding ring? Now he's living with Laney, by her side day and night. My wife and daughter will soon be his!"

On able to suppress a chuckle at his complaints, Janet retorted, "It's your own doing. You angered Laney. Now, you'd better muster your strength and courage to win her back!"

Realizing that complaining was futile, Garrett forced a bitter smile. "You're right. I'll do whatever it takes to win Laney back."

He returned to his new home, disheartened, his mind consumed by worry and anxiety about him and Laney's future.

Unbeknownst to him, Janet was smirking on the other end upon hanging up. "You used to fool around with women. You're getting what you deserve."

Curious, Brandon leaned in and inquired, "What did Garrett say?"

With a grin, Janet recounted, "He didn't appreciate Laney before. Now he's chasing his wife in another city, and Ian is thwarting his efforts. Winning her back won't be easy for Garrett. In my opinion, it's

payback for his past philandering!"

Hearing Janet's dissatisfaction with Garrett's former behavior, Brandon couldn't help but feel fortunate. He'd always been a man of integrity, adhering to moral codes and avoiding female friendships. He'd never make such a foolish mistake.

Eager to steer the conversation elsewhere, Brandon suggested, "Shall we try on our outfits for Mr. Nixon's art exhibition in a few days and make sure they fit?"
