The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Janet immediately brushed the thought away.

She knew that Charis would never hurt Brandon. Charis must have arranged for the staff to immediately take Brandon outside after they had been separated.

Janet also knew that given their circumstances, he would never come back for her even if he knew that she was trapped in that blazing fire.

Things were different now. Brandon was no longer someone who would do something stupid for her sake.

Even so, Janet couldn’t shake the sense of foreboding looming over her. She took a deep breath and continued asking around. “Have you seen someone coming out of the haunted house just now? Please think about it carefully. Male, about a head taller than me, very handsome but aloof?”

“No, we didn’t see anyone like that. Go ask someone else. We just happened to be passing by.” The person looked impatient, so Janet didn’t insist anymore.

She didn’t give up, though. She shifted her attention to the other onlookers and asked them one by one.

Finally, she came across a young couple who seemed to have a clue about Brandon.

“I think I saw the man you’re referring to! When the staff told us to evacuate because of a fire, he rushed back inside without a second thought. The staff didn’t get to stop him, and my boyfriend even joked that he must be an idiot who couldn’t even tell where the exit is.” The woman glanced sideways at her beau before adding, “In my opinion, he ran back inside to get someone important. Maybe his wife, or a child— Hey! I’m not done talking!”

Janet was already sprinting back to the haunted house before the woman could finish her words.

How could Brandon risk his life in such a big fire?
