Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 358

The ambiance of the restaurant was quaint yet beautiful. Bamboo trees lined up the path, interspersed with red flowering plums. The plants swayed with the gentle breeze, and the refreshing fragrance of bamboo and plum blossoms filled the air.

It was a renowned Chinese restaurant that boasted a unique menu. People often came to the restaurant just to try its braised pork.

Laney had stayed in the hospital for nearly a month. In the past month, she ate nothing but the bland hospital food provided for patients. Now, looking at the tempting, meaty dishes made her mouth water. Laney wasn't really a fan of meat, but today, she ate twice as much as she usually would.

Garrett had never seen a woman gobble up food like that before. He had usually been with women from wealthy, noble families. And those ladies only ate a few bites to maintain their shape.

A faint smile emerged on his face as he watched Laney hog down the food without having a care in the world.

On the other hand, Janet was eating gracefully as Ethan placed one dish after the other on her plate. "Would you like to have another bite?" He would smile tenderly and ask her to taste the dishes.

Only after Janet agreed would he fetch the food for her.

The four of them sat face to face. From afar, they looked like two sweet couples.

Janet was chewing her food. As she looked up, her gaze met Garrett's, and realized he was trying to start a conversation with Laney.

However, Laney gave perfunctory answers as if she had no interest in him.

"Mr. Harding is very articulate," Janet joked with a smile. She was familiar with Garrett now, so she had no inhibitions around him.
