Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 91

Seacisco had extreme climatic conditions. It had scorching hot summers and cold winters.

The fruit store near their apartment sold iced watermelon juice. The refreshing scent of the fruit wafted in the air.

Janet bought two cups of juice and went home.

She was still thinking about Brandon's messages.

As Janet walked into the house in a daze, she saw Ethan standing on the balcony, picking up dried clothes from the line. His hair swayed with the gentle breeze, and a few strands covered his bright eyes.

"What's wrong? You look preoccupied." Ethan sat on the sofa and put the pile of clothes beside him. His droopy eyes made him look indifferent and lazy. His magnetic voice snapped Janet out of her thoughts.

A pang of guilt settled in her heart when she met his gaze.

Janet felt she had to tell him the truth. After all, she didn't do anything wrong.

"I've been thinking about my company's CEO, Brandon Larson." Janet's brows furrowed as if it were something important.

Ethan picked up a cup of watermelon juice from the table, inserted the straw into it, and brought it to Janet's mouth, "What?"

After taking a sip of the juice, Janet turned her phone on and showed Ethan the conversation between her and Brandon.

"I think he is being too nice to me. It doesn't look like a professional conversation at all. That's not how a CEO talks to his employees."

Ethan drank the juice whilst reading the conversation. He scrolled down the screen and read the messages.

Although Ethan had sent all the messages, he had to read the conversation. Otherwise, Janet would doubt him.

He was glad that Janet had told him the truth.

Ethan felt she was a righteous woman and a good wife who would never cheat on him with a wealthy man for personal gains.

"Well, it seems normal to me. Why don't you just accept what he has given you? Brandon is an influential person. I'm sure he'll be able to help you in case you encounter any problems."
