The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 816 Pretending To Be Sick

Vera looked up at Kelly.

Kelly had been chosen by Vera to work for Garrett from the very beginning.She was slim and stylish and radiated natural beauty.

Though Kelly had graduated from a famous university, she'd been born into an ordinary family and was easy to control.

Vera made her the Harding family secretary.

"You're smart.It's true; it's easy to get to know rich men at charity parties full of celebrities."

Vera let Kelly sit down and said gently, "At first, I was hoping Garrett would grow fond of you.Now it seems as though you're not destined to be together.You've done so much for the Harding family over the years, and we all know it.You will be rewarded.If there's a man who's suitable for you, I will introduce you to him."

Kelly smiled, nodding obediently.

"Thank you, Mrs.Harding."

She was not at all interested in other rich families; all she wanted was to marry into the Harding family and to be with Garrett.She had persisted for so many years that she didn't mind waiting a while longer.

For the next few days, Vera had been following the doctor's instructions by going easy on Laney.

For now, Laney was free from the etiquette and musical instruments lessons.

Finally, Laney was able to breathe a little.
