The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 812 Vera Is Mad

Laney glanced at the phone screen and handed it to Garrett. "Your mom's calling. You should answer it. She might have something important to tell you."

"I'm doing the most important thing in the world now," Garrett replied with a smile.
