The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

That night, Janet went back to Barnes with her parents.

Barnes was known as the capital of ancient culture. Unlike Seacisco which was a developed, urbanized city, Barnes carried with it a long history of cultural heritage.

The White family’s mansion sat quaintly in the middle of a classical-style garden. The mansion was huge, and the stone sculptures flanking the grand door gave a glimpse at just how rich and powerful the Whites were.

“Your grandfather lived in this house. I wanted us to move out before, but your father didn’t agree. He’s too sentimental.” Johanna noticed that Janet kept looking around the mansion with wide eyes, so she thought that Janet didn’t like it. “If you want to live in an apartment or a villa, we can move out.”

Janet waved her hand quickly. “No, it’s okay. I’ve never lived in a place like this before. I’ve only ever seen it on TV. Now that I’m actually standing in it, I just wanted to take a closer look at its details.”

Johanna looked around the mansion alongside Janet and her expression softened. With a loving smile, she said gently, “It will all be yours in the future. You’ll have plenty of time to look around.”

“Mom, what on earth are you saying?” A sweet voice interrupted the conversation between Janet and Johanna.
