Later that day, two luxury cars pulled to a stop in front of W Marks Studio. The Harding family had arrived.
It had been a long time since the last time Janet saw Garrett. She figured he would come today.
Janet waited alongside her colleagues in the hallway. Finally, the doors were opened and Mrs. Harding stepped out of the car, followed by Laney.
Janet's eyes went as wide as saucers.
She couldn't believe that the woman behind Mrs. Harding was in fact Laney.
Laney looked extremely different.
Her long hair was braided up, framing her beautiful face. Her brows were trimmed and her eyelashes were curled, giving her face a noble and dignified look. She also looked more gentle and delicate than before, unlike the rough bodyguard Janet once knew. This woman didn't look like Laney at all, but it was indeed her.
After observing Mrs. Harding and Laney for a while, Janet still didn't dare to say hello to her friend.
She simply led them to the meeting room.
She was still quietly looking at Laney, whose eyes were sweeping across the room searchingly. When her gaze finally landed on Janet, she nodded politely. Her smile was gentle, elegant and somewhat estranged.
Janet knew that Laney had been taking etiquette courses from Mrs. Harding, but she didn't expect that she'd make such huge progress so soon! It was like she had transformed into a completely different woman.
Janet was really tempted to go over and chat with Laney, but what with Mrs. Harding's presence, she didn't dare to approach them. She could only pretend that they were strangers in the meantime.
