Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 666

When the day came, Brandon and Janet went to the largest amusement park in Barnes and headed over to the famous haunted house attraction.

Most people were dressed as monsters and witches, and they wandered merrily in the streets, reveling in the festivities.

Before leaving the villa, Janet had prepared a few bags of candies for children who might be trick-or-treating.

Sure enough, they ran into the kids at the amusement park. She happily handed them the goodie bags and praised their costumes. When she straightened, she caught sight of Charis looking at her in faint disdain.

"Miss Turner, didn't you say that you would organize a party for your employees here? Where are they? How come there's only the three of us here?" Janet was on high alert.

Except for Brandon and Charis, there was no one else from the Larson Group had joined them.

Charis had lied, of course. She didn't intend to involve her staff in the first place, since they would hinder her plans.

She chuckled awkwardly and looked away. "Well, they'll be here a little later. I haven't been to this place before. As their boss, I thought it would be best for me to check the safety policies of the establishment in advance. Some of them are very timid, you see. I wanted to speak with the management of the haunted house and see if they could tone down the horrors they offered. It might spook my team and cause and accident." She clapped her hands and smiled at them. "And on that note, I'll go and look for the manager now. You and Brandon don't have to wait for me. Go ahead and enjoy ourselves."

Janet didn't need to be told twice. She turned to Brandon and said, "Let's hurry inside. There will be too many people if we dally a much longer."

Brandon was looking around in curious amazement. He had never been to such a place before. Hearing what she said, he nodded at Janet and took her hand. They walked into the haunted house together.

Charis watched them go. Once they were completely out of sight, she discarded her mask of courtesy, and her face twisted in utter hatred. Long before they had arrived at the park, Charis had already made the necessary arrangements.

She had sent someone to the haunted house to hide and wait for the perfect timing. His task was to separate Brandon and Janet. After getting the woman alone, he would then lock her into one of the rooms and set fire to the attraction, trapping her inside.

Given Brandon's current feelings toward his wife, Charis was convinced that he would never run into the fire to save Janet. Even if he did, Charis ' henchman would be there to stop him.
