Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 35

Pamela eyed Janet warily. She never would've thought that Janet would dare to make a scene in public.

"You lunatic! How dare you record me? I was having a private conversation with a colleague! This is an invasion of my privacy!" She was so anxious that her voice turned shrill. As she berated Janet, she tried to grab the phone from her.

But Janet acted quick and dodged her advance. Looking at Pamela sharply, she said, "You defamed me first. I'm going to call Mr. Lyman right now. We can confront each other in his presence."

Then she strode out of the tea room and went straight to the director's office. She knocked on the door politely and announced, "Mr. Lyman, it's Lind."

Ike snickered, thinking that Janet had come around so soon.

"Come in. What's up?" he asked, feigning a concerned expression.

Janet opened the door and smiled slightly. "Mr. Lyman, could you come out here please? There's an emergency you need to deal with."

Was she actually asking him for help? Awesome!

Ike cleared his throat and smiled greasily. "Of course!"

He then followed Janet out and found a group of people waiting outside his office.

Pamela was among them, looking nervous with eyes darting around and fists clenched tightly.

"What happened?" Ike looked around him in confusion.

"Mr. Lyman, somebody here has been spreading a rumor that we have an affair. She even went so far as to tell people that we went to a hotel last night." Janet's voice was calm yet powerful. Everyone couldn't help but look at her. As she spoke, she took out her phone and held it up.

In fact, Ike's flirtatious hints were borderline harassment, which annoyed Janet. She wanted to put a stop to this, so she took this as an opportunity to make him give up on her.

After he listened to the recording, Ike's expression immediately darkened.
