Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 875

Janet was visibly upset. She didn't want to get Brandon involved in her work. "Don't worry," she said reassuringly. "I can handle it myself."

"What's your plan?" Brandon asked. "Confront her face to face? Do you have any evidence to prove it was Kathie who planned everything last night?" Brandon's questioning hit the nail on the head.

Janet lowered her head and took a slow, deep breath to calm down. "What are you going to do then?" she asked.

Holding her hand gently, Brandon turned back to the painting. "Don't let someone like Kathie ruin our day," he advised. "Let's enjoy the exhibition for now. It's interesting."

Janet's spirits were low. "They really did ruin my day, though," she muttered bitterly.

Putting his arm around her shoulder, Brandon said, "Someone told Zuri that I came here. She sent me a message this morning to say how sorry she felt for you. She also said that she'd handle it accordingly. You needn't worry about it."

Janet threw a glance over her shoulder at Kathie, and then nodded obediently.

Kathie was still talking to the female model beside her. She hadn't noticed Janet.

Kathie laughed for a while, before realizing that her volume was inappropriate. Covering her lips, she said, "It was lucky you slipped away early and didn't get caught."

The short-haired model looked at her sharply. "But the people we hired were all arrested," she said.

Her eyes darted around nervously.

Kathie wasn't worried about the arrests, however. "It's such a shame though," she replied lightly. "I paid them to do things for me, but they failed."

Her voice took on a whinier tone. "Honestly, you're useless. Do you know how hard I had to work to buy time for you? And in the end, you messed up anyway."

The model was appalled. "How could you blame us?" she asked. "You should have done a more thorough investigation of who she was before you took action."

The model lowered her voice. "That woman is Brandon Larson's wife!" she hissed. "The White family's daughter! We never should have offended her. Brandon would never let us get away with it." The short-haired model and her companions had all been frightened when Janet's identity had been revealed yesterday.

Fortunately, they had left immediately after surrendering Janet to the burly men. If they'd lingered a moment longer, they would have been caught and beaten mercilessly by Brandon's bodyguards.
