Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 62

"Wow," Janet said breathlessly. "It's beautiful... and it looks expensive." All of a sudden, she sighed. "Don't tell me you spent a fortune on me again."

"Don't worry. It didn't cost much. I got it from my friend." Ethan said affectionately, lying as easily as breathing. As he spoke, he ran his fingers across the woman's slender waist restlessly.

It never occurred to Janet that the gem in front of her was a genuine diamond. And how could it be real? If it was, Ethan had to be extremely rich. Eyeing the twinkling gemstone, she said in awe, "Technology these days must be amazing. It looks like a real diamond!"

Ethan looked at her cute face and had to hold back a smile that kept tugging at the corner of his lips. Lowering his head so that she couldn't see his face, he took the diamond ring out of the box and slipped it onto her index finger. Her fair, slender finger made the diamond pop out even more.

Delighted, he nibbled her neck and whispered, "You're right. It does look real."

"Ouch! Hey!" Janet shot him a glare, rubbing the spot he bit. Raising her hand, she stared at the diamond under the light. Each facet glistened and twinkled.

Even she couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. Now, no one would try to rob her with such a big diamond ring on her finger, because it looked way too big. It was obviously fake.

"Oh, that hurts already? Then what should you do when we get down to real business someday?" Looking at the faint teeth marks he left on her neck, Ethan snickered.

"What're you talking about?" Hearing his naughty words, Janet blushed, her ears burning bright red. She quickly yanked at a towel to wipe her face. Pushing him, she barked, "Get out of my way. I'm going to be late for work."

But Ethan's hands still lingered on her waist, unwilling to let her go. "I'll let you go if you kiss me."

"Ethan, stop it. I'm going to be late!" Janet quickly turned her face away stubbornly. It was as red as an apple.

"It's not like we've never kissed before. Why are you so scared?" Ethan whispered in her ear teasingly.

But in the end, he let her go. He patted her on the head and murmured, "You win."

Janet looked at him, bewildered. She had thought that he'd force her to kiss him, but he didn't. Ethan turned around and walked away. She stared at his back blankly, lost in thought.

When she arrived at the office, she found the design department bustling busily.
