Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 323

After a moment's silence, Charis said in a low voice, "I see."

Charis was a dignified woman. Before Ethan could say anything more, she turned around and walked out of his office.

As soon as the door closed behind her, tears welled up in her eyes.

Ever since they first met, Brandon had never said such harsh words to her before, nor had he looked at her with such cold eyes.

She hadn't cried in years. The last time was when she said goodbye to Brandon before going abroad. She had been reluctant to leave him. But now, she felt bad about Brandon's attitude towards her.

She and Brandon had worked together for years. They had shared the company's ups and downs. But all of a sudden, with Janet now in the picture, Brandon suddenly was ruthless towards her.

Tears rolled down Charis's cheeks as she realized just how important Janet was to Brandon. The hot tears dripped from her chin to the carpeted floor.

"I met Brandon first," Charis muttered through gritted teeth.

Charis didn't like to be candid with her shrewdness. The reason why she had tried to fire Janet was to win Brandon's heart.

In Charis's eyes, Janet wasn't good enough for him. But now that Brandon had taken a liking to her, Charis figured he would deeply fall in love with her and she would eventually lose him for good.

Thinking of this, Charis was more determined than ever to separate Janet and Brandon.

But she couldn't act as overtly as before.

Brandon had just warned her not to interfere with Janet's work ever again. She had to be more careful now.

On the other side...

After Janet got off work, she went home, only to find that Ethan had come home early today.
