Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 883

Everyone stared at Janet, waiting for her to tell the truth.

Janet stood still, stunned. Her eyes narrowed as she looked over at Dalores. There was a triumphant expression on Dalores¹ face.

It was an undeniable truth that Janet had been involved in the Draco situation, but Jorge, Elizabeth's ex-boyfriend, had been involved too. If Janet told the truth, it would only raise more questions. .

"There was an accident on the way to the airport," she said finally, "It wasn't a big deal. Don't think about it too much. Besides, the rumors aren't true. Don't believe them." Janet tried to explain as briefly and as vaguely as she could.

However, Dalores wasn't so easily satisfied. "Your explanation is far too perfunctory," she said suspiciously. "You haven't said anything we didn't already know. Since Mr. Wesley doesn't want to explain, it's down to you to explain on his behalf. There's been rumors swirling around about you too, you know. But, being your colleagues, we didn't dare mention them," she added.

Janet stared at Dalores with cold, expressionless eyes. "Don't spread rumors," she said firmly

Dalores' smile vanished, and she shrugged. "I don't spread rumors," she said sulkily. "I just heard that the flight was suspended for no reason, and that it was the Larson Group who prevented the plane from taking off. You have no idea how nasty some of these rumors are. Someone said that it was Brandon who tried to kill Draco, because he was jealous of how close Draco was to you. Someone else said that you deliberately harmed Draco in order to go to Iridescent Show alone..."

Dalores suddenly gasped and covered her mouth dramatically. "Oh, please don't be angry, Janet. Did I say something I shouldn't have?"

Janet smiled serenely. "I knew you hadn't turned over a new leaf," she said in a soft voice. "You still love to slander others..."

Dalores looked pleased with herself. When all was said and done, she had still won back Draco's trust. She no longer had to worry about being driven away by Janet.

Janet scowled.

Just then, Draco walked out of the office and interrupted them.

"Tasha, pass these materials out to everyone, please," he said. "I've done some screening, and all of our current orders have been delegated to the most suitable designer," Draco explained. "There are many orders, so we're about to be very busy for some time. Thank you in advance for your hard work."
