The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

“Well, I worked overtime today. There is a competition in our company,” she said, letting out a weary sigh. Janet was exhausted, both physically and mentally, so she went straight to her room.

Ethan’s heart sank as she didn’t bother to even look at him.
