Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 164

"I have tied him outside." Ethan's brows furrowed; anger blazed in his eyes. He looked at Janet and frowned. "How did you get involved with a disgusting man like him?"

"What's wrong with you? You sound like I seduced him on purpose." Janet's eyes widened at his remark. She struggled to get away from him. "Let go of me!"

Ethan always spoke this way to his subordinates. He found it difficult to switch between modes. Janet was a delicate and sensitive woman and a bit shaken up after what happened, so he held her tightly in his arms. "I'm sorry I said the wrong thing. Scold me or beat me if you want, but please don't be mad at me."

He cupped Janet's cheeks and kissed her.

"Ethan... Stop it. Get rid of this man first!" Janet grunted as she continued to wipe the lingering trails of his kisses. But the man ignored her and peppered kisses all over her face.

She couldn't get rid of Ethan's vice-like grip, so she asked him to take her to the living room. Ethan smiled and stood up.

Janet held his arm and followed him to the living room. Her eyes widened when she saw the man was tied to the chair. Ethan had knocked him unconscious; his face was covered in bruises.

"Should we call the police now? What do we do?" Janet asked in a tremulous voice as the mere sight of the man frightened her.

Ethan glared at the man, and his jaw tensed with anger. He looked like a beast guarding his territory. Anyone who even thought of laying a finger on his woman would end this way.

"No. I have a better idea."

Ethan picked up his phone and sent a message to someone.

"What have you planned to do?" Janet stood on tiptoe to check the message on his phone. But Ethan was too tall, so she couldn't catch a glimpse of his phone screen.
