The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Janet’s sprained ankle had swollen up. Ethan got to his feet to get the pain relieving cream for her. He carefully applied it to her ankle and gently rubbed it for a while. 

After that, he left to fetch some ice cubes for her. Since Ethan carried her back to the room, she had kept her eyes down and hadn’t uttered a word. 

After all the panic and anxiety had dissipated, she suddenly remembered that she was supposed to be angry with Ethan. She stared blankly at the bedsheet, at an utter loss. She was mortified that she had allowed herself to cry in such an unrestrained way in his arms earlier. 

Ethan hadn’t said a word either. He had been busy attending to her and taking care of her from the moment that they had got to the room. The atmosphere between the two was a little awkward. 

In the end, it was Ethan who decided to break the silence. He simply treated the wounds on his knees and legs and sat beside Janet on the bed. With a gentle expression, he asked, “Is there any other injury on your body?” 

Janet thought that if she spoke now, he would think that she had forgiven him. She raised her head, stared into his eyes and shook her head. She was as stubborn as a bull, and didn’t say anything. Looking at her expression, Ethan couldn’t help but smile. 

“It was my fault. I shouldn’t have jumped to any conclusion before I found out the facts of the matter,” he said slowly with a serious expression. With a snort, Janet turned her head away.
