Janet didn't feel sorry for the Turners.
For everything Charis had done, she deserved her fate. And her death had nothing to do with Brandon and Janet.
In Janet's opinion, she had been kind enough to them.
Charis had done so many terrible things to her and Brandon. Because of her dubious acts, Brandon lost two years of his memories.
Janet vowed never to forgive Charis because of this matter alone.
Aside from that, Charis had attempted to kill Janet many times, hoping to get Brandon for herself. Had Janet not found out about it in time, things could've gotten even worse.
Janet rubbed her temples wearily. Despite the fact that it was all in the past now, she still felt devastated by all the things Charis did.
After calming herself down, Janet focused on her work again.
She had almost finished designing Laney's dress.
She immediately sent the draft to Laney to confirm if the latter was satisfied. Pretty soon, she received a response.
"The dress looks amazing, Janet. I'll show this to my mother-in-law and ask for her opinion!"
Based on Laney's response, Janet gathered that the former was feeling a lot better than before. It also seemed as though Laney's relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Harding was starting to get better.
"I'm glad you like it," said Janet, smiling with satisfaction. "So, how's life at the Harding household? If you're ever feeling bored, you can hang out during weekends like we used to."
As an outsider, there wasn't much help that Janet could offer, nor could she relate to Laney's plight. The only thing she could do was to keep her company in her time of need.
After sending the message, Janet stood up and went to the break room to get some water. When she passed by Elizabeth's seat, she couldn't help but take a look at it. The seat was left empty, and all the items on her desk had been removed. Seeing it so empty made Janet feel so sad.
Even until now, she had no idea when Jorge would be caught.
Brandon had promised her that he'd find Jorge at all costs, so it probably wouldn't be long until he caught him. By then, Elizabeth could return.
Luckily, Janet had stayed in touch with Elizabeth. After the latter moved elsewhere, she sent Janet her new address.
On a whim, Janet returned to her own cubicle and searched the address given by Elizabeth.
Based on the map, it was quite near to the studio, so she decided to pay Elizabeth a visit after work.
