Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 876

The door closed, and Janet looked away. She felt much better.

"These people only dare to provoke you because you've always kept a low-profile," said Brandon. He looked at her calmly.

Janet continued to appreciate the paintings. "I am here for work, and I have to keep a low profile," she replied. "If I brag about being Mrs. Larson or Miss White all the time, the public won't value me or my work probably."

"I don't know what to do with you," said Brandon, rattled. "Fortunately, your father and mother are still travelling abroad," he added. "They'd be furious if they knew you were in danger." Brandon felt helpless.

After some careful consideration, however, he cheered up. Girls like Janet were ambitious, and Brandon liked that a lot. It was something he and Janet had in common.

After the art exhibition they packed their luggage, intending to leave Northcliffe. Brandon couldn't delay; he still had work to do in Barnes.

Before they boarded the plane, Janet heard someone calling her name.

Zuri ran over, panting slightly. "You two left in such a hurry," she said. "I really thought I wouldn't be able to catch you in time."

She handed Janet a large bag of delicately packaged gifts, saying, "Here's a little something for you. They're confections and some interesting handmade trinkets from one of the handicrafts exhibition. "I thought that, since you're probably tired of being disturbed by annoying people, you wouldn't be in the mood for touring the city."

Janet took the heavy bag. She was surprised and excited. "Why did you come here, specially?" she asked Zuri.

"I'm here mainly on behalf of Iridescent Show," Zuri replied. 'We're really sorry for the trouble we caused you this time." Zuri finished speaking and was about to bow, but Janet stopped her.

"It doesn't matter," she said graciously. "I didn't get hurt. If we meet again in the future, please still treat me as a designer." Janet knew that Zuri was acting this way mostly due to her identity as Mrs. Larson.
