The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Ethan wasn’t particularly concerned that Kent was working with Janet at first. But when he saw that Kent had asked her out with an obviously ulterior motive, he decided to secretly pull some strings so Kent would get into trouble and he would be busy sorting out the issue for the time being instead of harassing Janet.

“Kent has been replaced by someone else. You can rest assured now.” Garrett had come to report the latest developments to Ethan. He asked, “Why don’t you just cancel the project once and for all? You would be able to avoid any more trouble that way, right?”

“There would be no need for that. I just want to stop Janet from contacting him. Also, I don’t want to destroy her project. She’s really investing her all in it. Creating trouble for Kent would see to it that he wouldn’t have time to keep in contact with Janet.” Ethan browsed through the document in his hands. His legs were crossed and he looked so serious. A few minutes later, he picked up a pen and appended his signature on the document quickly.

Garrett collected the document and got ready to leave. He said, “I think you should deal with this matter as soon as possible. It would put a stop to the incessant quarrels between you and your wife. By the way, have you guys made up?”

“Yes, we have. She’s no longer angry with me for now. Please keep an eye on Charis for me. She seems to be up to something. If she does anything suspicious, don’t hesitate to inform me.” Ethan had hesitated for a while before he made that statement. He didn’t want to say it, but he thought it wise to do so.

Garrett understood exactly what he meant. With a slight frown, he questioned, “Why do you want me to keep tabs on her? Is there a misunderstanding? Charis is not that kind of woman.”

They went back a long way, so Garrett subconsciously put in a good word for Charis. It seemed like she could do no wrong in his eyes.
