Faced with his wife’s probing questions, even Brandon, the unflappable and level-headed CEO of the Larson Group, couldn’t help feeling a twinge of guilt and unease. Indeed, he had concealed something from Janet.

That secret was the result of his medical check-up. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to share it with Janet; he simply didn’t wish to sadden her. A girl as radiant as her deserved to lead a joyful life, unburdened by such matters. Unless he could find a foolproof treatment, he intended to keep this to himself. So, after a momentary panic, Brandon regained his composure, quietly pondering over whether Janet could have possibly unearthed this secret.

Whenever they convened to strategize, he always chose highly private venues. Consequently, the likelihood of Janet discovering the truth without his knowledge was slim.

It seemed probable that her present inquiry was merely a test. After ensuring he hadn’t left any clues unattended, Brandon adopted a convincingly innocent expression, responding with a hint of perplexity, "Darling, I’m at a loss.Why would I ever hide anything from you?"

He took Janet’s hands into his, uttering softly, yet persuasively, "You’ve been under immense stress lately, causing you to overthink.I cherish you deeply.Rest assured that I’ll inform and consult with you on any issue."
