Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 873

Derek looked haggard. He had dark circles around his eyes and one could clearly see from a glance at him that he hadn't managed to get a wink of sleep all night.

"Go and ask the police to see how the investigation is coming along," he said. Derek was drained of all energy and didn't even notice that there were other people in the elevator ahead of them.

"Don't bother. Look ahead." Wilder nudged Derek's arm and signaled him to look up.

Derek looked up at the elevator in confusion. When his gaze fell on Janet, there was a spark of surprise in his eyes.

But soon, he also noticed the man standing beside her.

Derek's face darkened. Without saying a word, he pulled Janet away from Brandon and straight out of the elevator.

"You bastard!" Derek stood in front of Janet and angrily questioned Brandon, "Where did you take my Janet last night?"

He assumed that the man before him must have had some bad intentions with Janet.

Brandon had an aura of iciness. His eyes were dark like a bottomless pit. "Your... Janet?"

He took a step forward and sneered.

Derek felt a little anxious being stared at by Brandon in such a vindictive manner. He straightened his neck and said, "I have asked you a direct question. Don't change the subject. Believe me or not, but I will call the police to arrest you!"

Seeing that Brandon didn't say anything, Derek instructed his manager, "Wilder, call the police immediately. Tell them that there's another one of those rapists."

"What makes you eligible to meddle in Janet's affairs?" Brandon said with a derisive chuckle. He raised his chin and asked Janet, "Who is this man?" Janet pursed her lips and braced herself to explain, "He is..."

However, Derek immediately cut her off. "Don't be scared of him, Janet. The police will deal with him!"

Janet was nervous now. She wanted to return to Brandon's side but Derek pulled her aside once more.

"Let her go," Brandon said, his eyes threateningly cold. He grabbed Janet by the wrist and was about to pull her back to him.
