The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

When Janet came home, she found the apartment empty. Hours ticked by, yet there was still no sign of Ethan.

Finally, at eleven o’clock, Janet heard the sound the door unlocking. She walked to the door subconsciously.

When the door swung open, she met Ethan’s gaze.

The man looked exhausted. He put away the key and said curiously, “I thought you were exhausted from working overtime. Why aren’t you in bed yet?”

“I got to take things easy today. Anyway, I cooked fish with sweet and sour sauce. Have you had dinner?” She should have been bed by now. For some unknown reason though, Janet had decided to wait for him tonight. After a moment’s silence, she asked hesitantly, “Why are you so late tonight?”

She had been working overtime the past few days, so she was out of the apartment early and came back late at night. She hadn’t seen Ethan in almost three days.

“Fish with sweet and sour sauce? Sounds great. I haven’t had dinner yet.” Ethan shrugged off his coat and tossed it on the sofa. He picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV. The sound of a football match droned on. “The convenience store was restocked today,” he murmured absentmindedly. “I had to help move things.”

“Oh,” said Janet. Shrugging it off, she walked to the kitchen to prepare the food.
