The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 817 Putting On A Show For Vera

Vera had a feeling of what was going on.She had discovered that the maids were sneaking snacks—and junk food at that—to Laney.

As a lady, she believed Laney shouldn't eat any junk food.It was disgraceful.But Vera didn't say anything.She reasoned that it would be best to catch Laney on the spot.

That night, Laney told her that she was not having dinner and she wanted to go to bed right away.

Vera was quite certain that Laney would get up at midnight to eat junk food since she skipped dinner.So she turned off the light in her room and waited quietly.

A little after midnight, she heard noises from downstairs, just as she had expected.

As quietly as a mouse, Vera walked towards the kitchen in darkness.She wanted to catch Laney this time.

"Are you having junk food again? In the middle of the night, even? You know that..."

Her voice trailed off when she saw the person in front of her.

Her son was standing next to the fridge door with a slice of pizza in his mouth.
