The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

When Janet saw the invitation Johanna had handed to her with her own eyes, she had no choice but to admit that her mother was indeed a decisive person.

“Mrs. White, to be honest, I haven’t yet decided whether I’ll be working in Barnes or not.” Holding the invitation in her hand, Janet didn’t know whether to laugh or cry in response.

After all, she had to take a lot of people into consideration, especially Hannah and Ethan.

Johanna had her own master plan. She secretly hoped that Janet would stay with her in Barnes for the rest of her life. Besides, the White family was wealthy enough to support Janet.

However, judging by the reluctance on Janet’s face, Johanna surmised that she must have been thinking about Brandon, the man in Seasisco.

He was a good-looking fellow, but Johanna wasn’t fond of him at all.

“I didn’t say that you have to work in Barnes, but it would be good for you to expand your connections. Barnes may not be as fashionable as Seasisco, but it’s a developed city with a healthy ecosystem of experienced designers to learn and gain knowledge from.” Johanna showed a gentle smile on her face.

Unwilling to disappoint Johanna, Janet eventually agreed to attend the party.
