The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

“I didn’t object to you working for Draco because I trusted you with all my heart.” Sensing that Janet was getting overexcited, Ethan softened his tone and said to her, “I’ll believe you if you can give me a fair explanation about what happened.”

Crossing her arms over her chest, Janet said, “I didn’t create that album you found on my phone and I didn’t save the photographs. I have no idea how it got on my phone in the first place.”

Her explanation sounded a bit ridiculous even to her own ears.

With a dry smile on his face, Ethan said, “This is your phone, Janet.”

He felt depressed and unconvinced when he heard Janet’s terrible attempt at an explanation.

“Don’t bother lying to me,” Ethan said in an extremely low voice. It was as if he was pleading with her to tell him the truth.

He had never spoken to anyone in such a humble way before.

No one else but Janet.

“But I really have no idea how it got there.” Janet was becoming so anxious that she raised the volume of her voice.

Ethan fell silent as he thought it over for a few seconds.
