Chapter 1129 What Medicine Are You Taking
Janet pondered and hesitated momentarily before acquiescing. âVery well, 1 shall bring some blankets
for you. Once you have refreshed yourself with a shower, the sofa shall be at your disposal for
slumber.â
Wearing a glum expression, Brandon remarked, âAs you can see, this sofa is rather small in size.â
âYou made a commitment to sleep on the sofa. You must honor your word, as a man should.â Janet
chuckled as she grasped the blanket on the bed, heading toward the sofa She put the blanket down
and then noticed the medicine hidden beneath the lamp.

Casting a furtive glance towards Brandon, she reached for the medicine, only to have it swiftly
snatched away by him. âWhat sort of medication are you on?â Janetâs frustration boiled over, and she
couldnât resist unleashing a thunderous roar.
Disbelief washed over her as Janet realized Brandon was still taking the medication. What else was he
keeping from her?
âThis is private to me,â Brandon retorted, gripping the medicine bottle tightly, concealing its label with
his palm. Janet snorted in derision. âIs this your way of owning up to your mistakes, Brandon?!â
She spun around, slamming the door behind her as she stormed out.
Upon descending the stairs, Janet caught the sound of voices emanating from the kitchen
âHannah, Are you here to get some water? Allow me to fetch it for you.â The servant could be heard
saying to Hannah in the kitchen.
âThank you so much, and Iâm sorry for the trouble,â Hannah replied, graciously accepting the cup from
the servant and offering a polite smile. Her eyes were filled with curiosity as she inquired, âMay I ask
how long youâve been employed here?â
âI have been employed at Mr Larsonâs residence for a while and was recently transferred here to
manage this house.â The servant honestly answered Hannahâs inquiry.
After a brief pause, Hannah continued, âGiven that you have been working for them for quite some
time, you must be familiar with the situation in this household. Please forgive me, but Iâm curious to
knowâ if Brandon and Janet truly share a good relationship.â
As Hannah emerged to sip some water, she overheard a conversation from Janet and Brandonâs
bedroom, revealing that they intended to sleep in separate beds. Hannah couldnât fathom why a couple
would sleep apart without any apparent reason. This led her to suspect that Brandon and Janet had
conflicted.
As Janet emerged from the door, she overheard Hannahâs inquiry, causing her to startle and nearly
lose her footing on the stairs.
Thankfully, someone was able to hold her before she fell. Brandon held Janet tightly, supporting her
weight against the stairs.
At the sound of the commotion, Hannah quickly looked outside the kitchen to investigate.
There were some meows from the stairs all of a sudden. âMr. Larson instructed me to keep a few cats
as a surprise for Mrs. Larson.â The servant explained with a smile, attempting to reassure Hannah not
to be anxious.
âYou had inquired about the relationship between Mr. and Mrs. Larson earlier? Iâm afraid Iâm unaware
of their past. Since they did not employ servants in their previous residence. Iâd worked at Mr. Larsonâs
other villas, and I only went to clean their villa occasionally.â
Hannah appeared disappointed as she replied, âAlright, thank you.â
The servant called out to Hannah before she left and added, âHowever, I believe Mr. Larson appears to
adore Mrs. Larson. Prior to my employment with the Larson family, I worked as a servant for other
wealthy households. Those couples, despite their wealth, treated each other with disdain and were
distant. Mr. Larson, on the other hand, is different 1 have heard that he frequently cooks for Mrs.
Larson Despite their busy schedules, they make time for each other and even take each other on
dates. Besides, if Mr. Larson didnât value Mrs. Larson, why would he bring you here and respect you
this much?â
âYouâre correct,â Hannah said with a resigned nod. She reasoned the voice in the room earlier must
have been a misinterpretation.
The individuals hiding on the staircase overheard the dialogue taking place.
Janet was in Brandonâs arms as he leaned against the stairs. Janetâs body trembled, and Brandon held
her tightly in his arms and whispered in her ear with a playful smile, âHaving fun playing hide and
seek?â
Brandon embraced Janet tightly, pulling their bodies closer together. He traced his lips from her
earlobes along the curve of her neck, teasingly running his tongue over her shoulder before playfully
nipping at her skin.
Taken by surprise. Janet raised her head, startled, and moaned. Brandon made a slurping, swallowing
noise as he kissed her, turning her face in his direction.
âI heard some noise. Let me check it out.â The servant noticed the sound and left the kitchen to
investigate.
Brandon lifted Janet and brought her to his bedroom, throwing her on the bed.
âBrandon! What is it you want?â Janet stood up from the bed in anger and kicked the back of Brandonâs
leg.
Brandon felt no pain because the kick didnât have much force. After turning around, he removed the
medication from his bag and placed it in Janetâs hand. âLook closely. Do you recognize this?â
âSleeping pills?â Janet inquired upon taking a closer look
