Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 421

Tiffany acted post haste. The moment she had the evidence, she called a meeting of all those in the design department.

Once everyone had arrived at the meeting, she played the recording of Ronald's confession for them.

The employees were indeed flabbergasted but, at the same time, they had expected something like that to have happened.

Many people in the design department spoke for Patty because of her relationship with the executive of the company. Everyone was also well aware of the fact that Patty was highly impulsive and irresponsible, so it definitely wasn't beyond her to pass the buck to Janet.

Patty's face drained of all color in an instant. She felt shame wash over her entire being as she listened to the recording. Ronald had even dared to call her a bitch.

In all honesty, the moment Patty had found out that Janet was Brandon's wife, she knew her conniving tricks would inevitably be exposed. These days, she was suffering from intense and deep-seated anxiety.

"I was scared at that time, so my mind was a mess, and I said it was Lind who hit Mr. Williams. I'm sorry for my conduct." A second after the recording ended, Patty promptly burst into tears and buried her face in her hands.

She was the villain who had slandered and framed Janet in the first place. Now, however, she cried pathetically and played the part of the wronged victim to the tee.

Janet scowled, but before she could get a single word out, her colleagues had come up to her and apologized.

"Lind, so it turns out that it wasn't you who did it. We discussed about it before and did suspect that it couldn't have been you because you are such a sweet, kind person. You could never have done such a thing."

"Sincerest apologies, Lind. We just heard rumors from other colleagues and got caught up in the web of lies. We wronged you and judged you before we figured out the truth. You are such a good person. I hope you won't take it to heart."

All her fellow employees apologized, one after the other, in honeyed tones with flattering expressions on their faces.

They had never talked to Janet in such a humble tone.

Noisy, hypocritical voices made her feel wholly uncomfortable. She knew very well that they did this mainly due to the fact that she was Brandon's wife.
