Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 762

The following day, Janet went to work with dark circles under her eyes.

She had treated Brandon to a fancy meal last night, but unexpectedly, the night turned steamy. When they got home, he had sex with her several times in a row, which had rid her of a good night's sleep.

When Janet arrived at the office, she immediately looked for Draco, who didn't seem to be around.

Frowning, she asked Tasha, "Has Mr. Wesley come in yet?"

Handing out some documents to the designers, Tasha turned to look at Janet and said, "Mr. Wesley might be late. He said he was going to Mrs. Fuller's house to apologize early this morning."

Hearing this, Janet felt incredibly uneasy. She nodded absentmindedly and sat down at her station, deep in thought.

She couldn't focus on her work at all.

Elizabeth came to work today, looking extremely pale. It seemed that she too didn't sleep well. With two black circles under her eyes and slightly disheveled hair, she looked very haggard. "Elizabeth, are you not feeling well today?" Janet asked worriedly when she saw the state of her friend.

Elizabeth took off her coat and put it on the chair, looking exhausted. She shook her head and said, "I got into a big fight with Jorge last night. It's over. We broke up."

In her heart, Janet was secretly happy to know that Elizabeth had broken things off with Jorge.

She lowered her voice and asked in a hushed whisper, "Did Jorge hit you again?"

If that was the case, he had gone too far!

Elizabeth smiled bitterly and shook her head. "No. Jorge did something unforgivable this time. That's why we broke up."

Janet sighed and tried to console her friend. "You're a beautiful and excellent woman, Elizabeth. I'm sure you'll meet someone better. Oh, and since you didn't come to work yesterday, you might not know about what happened. Someone leaked the dress design we made for Mrs. Fuller, but we don't know who."

Upon hearing this, all the color drained from Elizabeth's face. She seemed to want to say something, but she was too nervous to say it. In the end, she cleared her throat and said feebly, "Janet, there's something I need to tell you—"

But before she could finish her sentence, a loud noise came from the door.
