Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 146

In the elevator, Ethan nervously bounced on his feet.

Five minutes ago, when he walked out of his office and was about to take the exclusive elevator, he saw the workers were still repairing it.

Yesterday, Ethan had asked Garrett to cut off the electricity supply in the Larson Group building for an entire day.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong with his exclusive elevator. It stopped working even after the power was restored. The maintenance team came to repair it in the morning and hadn't finished working yet.

Ethan had no choice but to take the common elevator. It was already midnight, so he didn't think he would bump into any workers.

However, just as he arrived at the floor of the design department, the elevator stopped.

Ethan was taken aback when the door opened, and Janet entered. He shivered and immediately turned his back to her.

Fortunately, Janet was staring at the phone when she entered the elevator, so she didn't notice him.

Janet guessed it was Brandon. The first thought that came to her mind was to get out of the elevator. However, the door closed, trapping her there.

Subconsciously, Janet wanted to press the open button. But she was already in the elevator and felt it would be impolite to leave now.

She had no choice but to take the elevator with Brandon. Fortunately, the two would only have to spend a minute or two together.

The elevator was quiet, and the sound of her breathing amplified with every passing second.

Considering it would be rude to ignore his presence, Janet decided to greet him. She glanced at his back and said, "Good evening, Mr. Larson." Her voice was barely above a whisper.

"Hmm." Ethan gave her a cursory nod. He deliberately lowered his voice to make sure Janet didn't recognize him.
