Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 725

Brandon helped her sit on a chair in the study.

Then he leaned against the table, staring at Janet pensively.

Janet didn't want him to find out that she had met someone related to Charis, so she covered her face, pretending to be embarrassed. "Oh, gosh, how embarrassing! I can't believe a horror movie scared me that much!"

Brandon pursed his lips tightly. He didn't seem to believe a word she said.

Unable to figure out what was on his mind, Janet bit her lip and asked tentatively, "What? Do you think I'm lying?" "I just don't understand," Brandon said simply. "You're a timid girl who doesn't really watch horror movies. Why did you suddenly want to watch one today?"

Glancing at the overturned laptop on the ground, Brandon stood up to pick it up.

Seeing this, Janet sprang up from her seat and grabbed the laptop from the floor. "Don't move. I can get it myself."

As she spoke, she held the laptop tightly in her arms.

"Why are you so nervous? Were you looking at something shady?" Out of the corner of his eye, Brandon checked the computer screen. It was dark and he couldn't make out anything.

"There are, er, ghosts! There're ghosts in my computer. Of course I can't show them to you!" Janet also felt that it was a little weird that the strange sounds in the computer stopped after only a few seconds.

But she couldn't think too much about it and turned her laptop off quickly. She couldn't let Brandon find out what she was really up to.

Brandon was opening his mouth to question her further when Janet suddenly gasped dramatically. "Oh, God! I just remembered I'm still cooking something on the stove!"

After saying that, she bolted out of the study, leave Brandon in the dust.

The man had no choice but to follow her downstairs. However, by the time he caught up to her, Janet had already put on an apron and was starting to cook.
