Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 709

Brandon's body visibly stiffened.

Hearing the psychologist's pointed question, he panicked.

How he regretted not being cautious enough!

He forgot to ask Frank to deal with his medical records and ended up giving the psychologist genuine information. And of course, he saw that Brandon had been prescribed a lot of painkillers.

Now he had no choice but to come clean.

"I've seen several doctors before, but none of their prescriptions worked. Gradually, I felt even worse. Every time I tried to recall the past, I would have a splitting headache that would only be relieved by painkillers. But don't worry. I'm not addicted or anything. In fact, I'm reducing the dosage now."

"Didn't my father introduce you to a doctor?" Janet asked in disbelief, unable to believe what shehadheard. "I thoughtyou were gettingbetter..."

After all, Brandon had never even mentioned anything about his splitting headaches to her at all.

Seeing her so worried, Brandon reached for her hand and patted it comfortingly. "That doctor said that there's no way to cure me."

The more Janet thought about it, the more distraught she became. She shook off his hand and demanded, "How come you didn't tell me sooner? Brandon, some balls you have!"

Brandon pursed his lips and fell silent for a while. Then he said in a low voice, "I just didn't want you to worry too much."

Janet was so angry that she couldn't even look at him. She didn't say a single word all throughout the consultation. When it was over, they went home together in silence.

Brandon knew that she was still seething. After putting down their things, he walked up to her and asked, "Honey, do you want to go to the supermarket? We can cook up a nice meal together."

Janet shot him a murderous glare and sneered angrily. "No, thanks. I'm not eating tonight. I'm already full—of anger."

She wanted to run upstairs, but Brandon stopped her.

"What do you want?"

Janet asked through gritted teeth, hand poised to slap him.

Flinching, Brandon immediately let go of her to cover his face. "Anywhere but the face!"
