Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 514

At that moment, a knock sounded on the door.

"Janet, I made some soup and some dumplings stuffed with crab meat for you. Would you like to eat them before heading to bed?" Johanna's voice was both gentle and cautious at the same time.

Now, Janet was really hungry after crying for such a long time. Her stomach kept on rumbling noisily.

She opened the door and moved out of the way to let Johanna in.

The pleasant aroma of the dumplings immediately greeted her.

When Johanna saw Janet's red and puffy eyes, she became enraged once more. If she had known about it earlier, she wouldn't have been so nice to Brandon just now.

"My poor girl. Tell me, what happened?" Setting the food on the table, Johanna held Janet's hand and tried to comfort her.

Johanna hadn't been there for Janet during her childhood. Now, she felt a little uneasy and wasn't sure how she should go about comforting Janet.

In the past, when Lila broke up with her exes, Johanna would go shopping with her, but she knew that Janet was not the sort of person whose problems could be remedied by a shopping spree.

Suppressing the sadness in her heart, Janet scooped up a spoonful of soup and slowly began eating it. The soup tasted amazing.

"We were arguing over some trivial things. It's not entirely his fault. I also did something wrong." Johanna could tell that it was not a big deal as Janet began to put in a good word for her husband subconsciously.

Seeing that Janet was acting absent-minded while holding the spoon in her hand, Johanna had a kind smile on her face as she asked, "What's on your mind?"

"I always take my phone with me everywhere. I only leave it on my desk occasionally when I work. I'm wondering who else has touched my phone," Janet murmured to herself as she thought about this matter in her head.

Johanna had no idea what exactly happened, so she could only make a rough guess based on her own previous experience and said, "Of course, it must be someone who holds a grudge against you."
