Johanna was at least pleased that Ethan actually called the Whites' residence so soon. She had also experienced such a thing before. In the past, she had fought with Beal many times while she was in love with him and even after they got married. As long as they could handle themselves well, it was not altogether a bad thing.
"Never mind, don't worry about it. Just let Janet stay here with us for a few days. I'll go upstairs and check on her now." Johanna didn't ask any more questions.
She wanted to let them deal with the matter themselves first and if they couldn't reconcile, she would help them out later.
After hanging up, Ethan became calmer. At least, Janet wasn't wandering the streets anymore and she was safe at home at the Whites now.
This proved to be a sleepless night for Ethan.
He tossed and turned the whole night while in bed.
Now that he had calmed down and thought it all over again, he felt that Janet's reaction at that time seemed to be genuine. So someone had really set her up.
After all, as far as he knew about her, she was not cut out for a lair. If she was discovered to have an affair, she would never react in such a firm and indignant manner in the first place.
Ethan got up and turned on the light. The room was lit up right away.
He picked up his phone and looked at the anonymous message again.
So who sent that message to him? How could the person know Janet's phone password and the existence of a well-hidden secret album on her device?
When Ethan first saw the photo, he was so angry that he didn't have the chance to think much about the details. Now, when he thought back to this matter, he also felt that there were many suspicious things going on.
And how did this person have his phone number?
The one who would do such a thing could only be one of Janet's colleagues.
