My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

In Seacisco, the Larson Group building. Et han had just finished his video conference. He glanced at the clock on his desk and dialed Janet’s number. When the call connected, however, his face instantly darkened.

“Honey, can you tell me why I’m greeted by your palm instead of your pretty face? What’s going on? I’ve been dying to see you.”

“I’m right here, Honey, just a little busy. I’ll call you back in a while, okay? Mr. Wesley sent back my designs for further modifications.” Janet pulled back and glanced at her phone once before focusing back on her computer screen. Ethan’s tone grew somber.

“Honey, don’t you realize that you’ve been working on these designs for more than a week? You’re working every single time I called you.”

They are surprisingly constructive, and he spots a lot of problematic details that I wouldn’t even have thought about. I feel like a new world has opened up before me, and that I’m welcome to learn new things without fear of judgment.” Ethan stared at her and saw how her eyes lit up with excitement as she talked. He could tell that she was having the time of her life at work.
