Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 825

Janet's entire body felt sore. After last night's indulgences, she had slept until noon.

Fortunately, today was Saturday. She turned in bed, planning to continue sleeping, only to find Brandon lying beside her. He hadn't gone into work at the Larson Group today.

Seeing Brandon sleeping soundly, Janet had a change of her mind. She kissed him, gently lifted the quilt, and got out of bed.

The last time she had cooked breakfast for Brandon was when he had just lost his memory. Thinking about how they were back together now, Janet couldn't help laughing to herself while frying the eggs.

If only Brandon could regain his memory...

"What are you thinking about? You're going to overcook the eggs!" Brandon's voice was lazy, and Janet could smell the aroma of mint in his mouth. He hugged her from behind, resting his head on her neck and squinting his eyes.

"Wait at the table. Breakfast will be ready soon." Janet was distracted now and didn't even notice the heat coming from the pan.

Brandon gently took the spatula from her hand and said, "Let me do that. You wait in the dining room."

He was a skillful cook. Soon afterwards, he placed a large plate of steaming fried eggs on the table.

"Start eating. I'll bring the toast out." Then he returned to the kitchen.

Touched by how he'd decided to take care of her, Janet happily sighed, picked up a fried egg into her plate, and ate it.

Moments later, Brandon placed the toast and butter in front of her and said, "I have something to tell you."

Janet raised her head while carefully taking a bite of her toast, and said, "Go ahead."

"Prepare yourself." He paused. "I think we should go to the charity party tonight."

"Didn't you just turn it down yesterday?" Janet asked, bemused.

Selecting his own fried egg with a fork, Brandon said, "I mulled it over some more. There have been so many rumors about us. People think our marriage has fallen apart. Ever since we got back together, we haven't even once appeared in public."

"But we hardly ever showed up in public even back then." Janet didn't like turning their love into a big display for the crowds. It was too ostentatious, and their love was for them and them alone, not for the entertainment of the public.
