NovelEnglishThe Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 362: Fell Into The WaterLaney had been in a bad mood the entire week after the incident. Janet knew that she was still blaming herself for the problem
between Garrett and his girlfriend.
Therefore, she planned to go shopping with Laney on Saturday to cheer her up. She bought some chicken nuggets from a shop
on the street. It was a cold wintry day; the perfect season to enjoy hot, fried chicken. Janet put a chicken nugget into Laney’s
mouth.
“Stop sulking! It has been one whole week. Perhaps the misunderstanding between Garrett and his girlfriend is cleared by now.
They might have gotten back together already.” After eating the nugget, Laney let out a weary sigh.
“I don’t think so. They have really broken up, you know.”
Janet was taken aback.
“Even so, it’s no big deal,” she comforted Laney.
“It was just a misunderstanding. None of it is your fault. Anyway, Garrett changes girlfriends faster than he changes his clothes.
Laney smiled but didn’t say anything. She understood that Janet was trying to make her feel better. However, her words didn’t
seem to help. She had to figure this out herself.
After shopping, they went to a scenic spot that had recently opened in Seasisco. Janet pointed at the lofty mountain and said, “I
heard on the news that the snow would rime the mountain, making it look like a huge ice cream cone.”
She wanted to somehow make Laney feel better, and nothing better could uplift one’s mood than the beauty of nature.
Unexpectedly, a crew was filming there. As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw that people had gathered
around to watch the shoot.
Janet wasn’t interested in celebrities. But if Laney liked them, she didn’t mind joining her.
“Do you like stars?”
“I only like action movie stars.” Laney smiled.
It seemed like they were shooting a soap opera. A huge crowd had gathered, and they couldn’t squeeze their way inside.
At last, the two of them found a quiet place by the lake and sat down. Just as Janet wondered what to say to make Laney feel
“Janet!” The voice sounded familiar. She turned around and saw a female star greeting her from a distance.
As the woman walked closer, Janet recognized her. Emani’s contract with the Larson Group had just expired. She was no longer
the spokesperson of the Larson Group’s clothing brand, which meant Emani didn’t have to try being friends with Janet anymore.
“You just saw me. Why didn’t you come and talk to me? Luckily, I have good eyesight, so I recognized you from afar.” Emani was
wearing bright lip gloss. She smiled, revealing her pearly teeth that made her look kind and innocent.
However, Janet was on guard. Emani was acting weird, and weird meant dangerous. The woman had never liked Janet. Why
would she be so nice to her all of a sudden? Something seemed fishy.
Janet had no intention of talking to Emani. However, a group of reporters and fans had already gathered around Emani, taking
pictures.
If Janet were rude or impolite, Emani’s fans would wreck her life.
“There were too many people, so I didn’t want to disturb you.”
Janet smiled and turned to leave. However, Emani immediately grabbed Janet’s hand and sat beside her as if they were great
friends.
“We haven’t seen each other for a long time. How have you been? Have you gotten over what happened?” A frown lined Janet’s
forehead.
‘‘What’s wrong with her? Why is she asking such stupid questions? We don’t even really know each other.’’
