Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 703

Janet and Brandon plummeted towards the ground, the wind rushing past them. However, several nets suddenly stretched out from the window of the floor below them and caught them in time!

Janet and Brendan landed on the nets, bouncing slightly from the impact. They could see from the window that many rescue workers and employees had gathered.

"Come on, give me a hand! Quick!"

"Everyone, listen to me! We'll pull on the count of three. One, two, three—pull!"

The rescuers and many other employees of the Larson Group joined forces and pulled them in through the window.

Janet was still in a state of shock, even as she was safely lowered onto the floor. She kept trembling in Brandon's arms.

Brandon also gasped for air, and his heart was banging against his chest from the adrenaline.

It took Janet a long time to recover.

When she came to her senses, she raised her head and looked at Brandon angrily, tears welling up in her eyes. "Are you insane? Why didn't you let me go? If the rescuers didn't show up in time, we both would've died! Can you stop being so self-righteous for once? I don't need your help! You had the chance to live! You shouldn't have given it up for me!"

Janet had always believed that true love didn't need to be prove and living on after one's partner passed away didn't mean betrayal either. It was really stupid, what Brandon had done.

Brandon also couldn't understand it himself. He had always thought that he was a selfish and cold-blooded person who would make sacrifices for no one. He didn't expect that he would do such a thing for a woman he barely knew.

Smiling bitterly, he raised his hand and gently touched Janet's hair. "How could I let you go? I was more scared than you. I knew I would regret no matter what I chose to do, so I figured I might as well die alongside you. Dying with you is better than living alone..."

Janet was speechless and tears kept rolling down her cheeks.
