The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

“Mr. Larson, we’ll get this project, I guarantee it. You’re such a visionary for coming to Barnes for development. Your suggestion at the meeting just now was revolutionary!” As the shareholders filed out of the meeting room, they kept flattering Ethan.

Ethan smiled courteously but said nothing. He got his private phone back from the assistant and checked it for messages. The next second, his expression darkened.

“Why didn’t you tell me someone had sent me a message?” he asked his assistant in a low voice.

The assistant was so frightened that he stammered, “Well, Mr. Larson, you never check your phone during such significant meetings. You told me never to bother you with texts or calls.”

Ethan reread the text from Janet and frowned.

The shareholders from the meeting just now exchanged glances when they saw Ethan’s dramatic change in disposition.

What could’ve happened? Did stock prices plummet?

Ethan tried dialing Janet’s number, but he couldn’t get through.

“Move tonight’s meeting to tomorrow.” With an icy cold expression, Ethan grabbed his suit jacket and stormed out of the building.

Almost every single time he left Janet alone, something bad happened to her.

This made him seriously consider bringing her with him wherever he went.

She was an adult for crying out loud. Why couldn’t she take care of herself? Skydiving was an extreme sport. Besides, given their current situation, neither of them were safe. The Lester family was out to kill them.
