Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 652

Johanna came from a noble family in Barnes, whereas Beal was a White—one of the most powerful families in Barnes. No one had ever been this disrespectful to them before.

The way Brandon had treated them today really pissed Johanna off.

"Let's get out of here, Janet! I refuse to let you be bullied. Since Brandon refuses to explain himself, then so be it. You don't need a man like that!" Johanna took a deep breath and calmed down. Her expression softened and she took Janet's hand to leave.

Janet followed Johanna and Beal out of the reception room in a daze.

After taking a few steps, she stopped in her tracks and said, "Mom, I don't think it's as simple as we saw it was. Brandon has never been like this before. Something must've happened to him."

Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for Brandon to change into a completely different person all of a sudden. Even if there was a huge misunderstanding between them, he wouldn't have been so indifferent to her.

She had noticed that the way Brandon looked at her just now was estranged and cold, as if he was looking at a total stranger.

It was as though the love they had cultivated over the past two years had disappeared overnight.

Johanna sighed and looked at Janet helplessly. "Do men need a reason to cheat? Janet, Brandon's attitude proves otherwise!"

Seeing that Janet was dead serious, Beal looked at her and asked, "My dear, do you really trust Brandon that much?"

Janet nodded without missing a beat.

She trusted Brandon with her life, as he did with her.

"I have to figure out why he is suddenly acting like this. Dad, Mom, you can go back to Barnes first. I'll take it from here."

Johanna clutched her daughter's hand worriedly. "You haven't fully recovered yet, and Brandon doesn't seem to care about you. We can't just leave you alone in Seacisco!"

"How's this? We can investigate together. Your mother and I will send someone to investigate everything that happened to Brandon during the past few days after he fainted. If anything comes up, we'll call you." Holding Janet's shoulders, Beal added, "If you need anything, just tell us. You're not alone anymore, Janet."
