The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Ethan stood in the elevator, all stiff and tense His fear lingered at the back of his head He had been sweating so much that his shirt had already stuck to his back Ethat had never expected to meet Janet here, of all places He hadn’t even figured out how to tell her the truth yet.

All this time, he had been going to great lengths, monitoring her every move in the office, just to avoid accidentally running into her Every day, he would wait for her to leave the company before getting off work himself.

And whenever Janei needed to clock in some overtime, Ethan made sure to leave after she did. That afternoon, Janet had sent him a message saying that she was going to have coffee with Kent.

He had felt safe taking the CEO’s elevator under the foolish presumption that Janet would either be at the coffeehouse or on her way home by now.
