NovelEnglishChapter 117 "Janice is a thoughtful woman. She doesn't like to trouble others," Edward explained. The driver nodded.
Neither of them spoke further. After the driver dropped Edward off at home, a call cin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mrs. Moore." "Did you get them all home?" "We just arrived, Mrs. Moore." Barbara lowered her voice. "Did you notice anything?" She had always suspected that Edward was lying to her. Perhaps he had randomly found a like-minded female companion and was just pretending to date her to avoid going on blind dates.
"Nothing particularly unusual. But Ms. Smith kept thanking him." Barbara thought for a moment, "Why is she so polite to him?" Was there a need to be so formal between couples? "I understand. You should rest early too." "Alright, Mrs. Moore." Janice went home, took a shower, and lay down. It was then that Edward's video call cthrough. She straightened her clothes and answered the call.
He opened with, "From now on, don't be so polite with me. Can't you just act?" "Act?" Edward continued, "Fool yourself into believing I'm really your boyfriend. That way, you don't have to overthink what you should or shouldn't do. If you can't even fool yourself, how can you fool my family? After you got out of the car, my driver seemed to notice something was off." Janice asked, "Isn't your driver supposed to be your guy?" "Even if he works for me, who's to say he'll never betray me?" Edward didn't like taking risks, so he didn't even trust his own driver.
Plus, Barbara might not look intimidating, but she had her ways of getting to the bottom of things.
Janice leaned against the pillow with a frown. Only her beautiful face was visible in the video. She pondered for a long while before saying, "I'll try my best. I just hope you won't think I'm overstepping." He looked at her for a few seconds. "I won't." "Alright." "Goodnight." "Goodnight." She put down her phone, turned off the lights, and stared into the dark room, her mind filled with Edward's face. Ever since they had met, he had always been accommodating and patient with her, constantly supporting her.
He had only asked her for this one favor. If she couldn't do it well, wouldn't she be letting him down? "Hey, are you asleep?" "No, Janice!" Jacob cout of his room. "What's up?" "I need to ask you something." The siblings sat down on the couch, chatting under the dim glow of the nightlight.

He fell silent. He opened his mouth several times but ultimately said, "Since you've agreed to help, do your best. If you mess it up, it'll be unfair to Edward considering all the help he's given you. Besides, it's not like you've never dated before. Just channel that senergy into him. I'm sure you'll fool his family." "But..." She hesitated. "Is that appropriate?"
Noticing his sister's embarrassment, Jacob replied, "Janice, does your ego ΠΙ matter that much? Besides, Edward is super handsome, so you're not losing out. You two look perfect together!"
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm fine now. Go to bed early." She got up andm quickly returned to her room. Her cheeks were still slightly flushed up until the moment she fell asleep. The Winter Tournament commenced at 10:00 am the next day. Since Janice didn't need to go to the office, she took care of her work in the morning and went downstairs.
From a distance, she saw the Bentley that was parked outside. Jacob's words from last night echoed in her mind.
