Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 346

Right now, there was nothing else Janet could do but wait for Ethan to come up with something.

As the days went by, the snow in Seacisco became stronger.

At sunset, Ethan returned from his long journey. Snow had piled up on his black wool coat.

"Are you okay? It's too cold outside. Have dinner first so you could warm up. Let's go to the shopping mall once I get my salary so we can buy some clothes for you." Ethan always wore this black coat. Janet understood that he didn't need a lot of winter clothes, but she didn't want him to live so poorly.

After patting off the snow from his coat, Ethan hung it on the coat rack. The grey sweater he wore under the coat was revealed. It wasn't from a luxury brand; in fact, Janet only bought it on sale. But because Ethan was in good shape, the sweater looked expensive when he wore it.

"The clothes in the shopping mall are very expensive. Didn't you just lend someone fifty thousand dollars? Let's postpone that for now." Standing in the doorway, Ethan stared at Janet. The dim light accentuated his handsome face.

Guilt was evident on Janet's face. She was silent for a while before finally saying, "I know I shouldn't have indulged Tyler, but I have to help him for Hannah's sake..."

Her soft voice gradually trailed.

Noticing that Janet was feeling down, Ethan walked over and stared at her with eyes brimming with affection. Then he raised her chin and kissed her passionately.

He sucked on her bottom lip, biting into it. Just as Ethan was about to lose control, he let go of her lips and said in a gentle tone, "I'm not blaming you. Don't worry. I have asked my friend for help. He has talked to someone who works at the casino. They have agreed for Tyler to pay them back in installments."

Surprised by the news, Janet raised her head and asked, "You really know a lot of people, don'tyou? Did it cost you a lot to ask your friend for help?" Ethan gently pinched her chin and answered, "It's not a big deal. He happened to owe me a lot of favors. Just tell Tyler to get a job. He has to have an income to afford to pay his debt every month. In that way, he could also support himself and start anew."

"I'll tell Tyler the good news later. Finally, there'll be a solution to his problem." Now, Janet's face looked livelier. She snaked her arms around Ethan's waist and praised him with a smile, "You're so smart."

What she did made Ethan chuckle, but he arched his eyebrows. "Is that all I'd get?"
