The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 746: The Second Mysterious Call

Laney shook her head and smiled wistfully.

"Oh, it's not like that.I was just thinking about the days we were still in Seacisco.We used to be so carefree! Now that I live with the Harding family...Well, everyone there pays attention to their manners.I totally get it since they are a noble family.I just sometimes feel as though I'm walking on eggshells."

Janet could tell that her friend was unhappy, so she patted her on the shoulder in an effort to comfort her.

"The sooner you accept the reality, the better.You've changed so much, Laney.I almost didn't recognize you earlier."

Hearing this, Laney smiled bitterly.

After ordering, she handed the menu to the waiter and sent him away.To Janet, she said, "It's hard.I just don't want to disappoint Garrett.He quit his job at the Larson Group to come work for the Harding family for my sake.I also want to do my best to please his family, but sometimes it's really difficult."

During the past few months’ of etiquette classes, Laney had had a hard time.

And since Garrett had taken over the family business, he had been busy with work all day long and rarely came home to see her.

Laney was a woman who loved martial arts and yearned for freedom.

Everything that used to be tied to her identity were buried since she married into the Harding family.

She sometimes didn't even know if there was still meaning to her life.

As time went on, she became more and more confused and frightened, afraid that she would be trapped by Harding family’s rules all her life.It was almost like prison.

Thinking of this, Laney felt suffocated.
