The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Grasping the quilt, Janet bit her lip and hesitated for a long time.

Finally, she put on her slippers and walked toward the door, hugging her pillow.

The early autumn weather was damp — moisture lingered in the air. All lights in the living room were turned off. Janet walked to Ethan’s room and saw the dim light from the crack of his door.

Janet took a deep breath and knocked on the door twice.

The door immediately opened, which surprised Janet. If not for the glass of water in Ethan’s hand, she would have thought the man had been standing by the door the whole time, waiting for her to knock.

They hung loosely on his waist. He leaned against the door frame and took a sip of water. His lips curled up into a knowing smile when he saw the pillow in her arms.

Janet lowered her head. “I’m a little scared,” she mumbled, clutching the pillow tightly.
