The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 1167 A Tour
âIs it okay for us to do that?â Glancing back at Lola far behind them, Laney felt uneasy.
Janet held Laneyâs hand and comforted her. âYouâre Garrettâs wife and the future matriarch of the
Harding family. People cannot order you around.â
âBut she works for Garrettâs father.â Although Laney knew Janet was right, she was worried. âWhat if
Garrett quarrels with his family again?â Janet sighed. Laney cared too much about Garrett. She was no
longer the carefree person she used to be.
âDonât worry. We arenât actually disobeying Garrettâs father. Besides, Iâll be with you. Lola wonât dare to
say anything.â With a gentle smile, Janet squeezed Laneyâs hand to reassure her.
Laney finally felt relieved. Janet was right. She worried too much.
While the two talked, their car arrived at the hospital.
As soon as Laney got out of the car, several doctors rushed toward her. The balding doctor in front was
very courteous. âAre you Mrs. Harding?â
âYes, I am. Youâ¦â Laney paused, feeling confused.
âIâm the director of this hospital. My name is Emmitt Watts,â the doctor introduced himself. âMr. Harding
told me you would visit. We are eager to serve you well. We have been waiting for you to arrive.â
Laney was not used to this kind of scene. She waved her hand awkwardly and said, âI didnât expect an
entourage.â
Emmitt Watts turned around and ordered the other doctors to leave. He made a gesture of welcome to
Laney. âIâm happy to show you around.â
Laney nodded and glanced at Janet before smiling helplessly and following Emmitt inside. Emmitt gave
the two ladies the grand tour. When they arrived at the neonatal unit, they gazed through the glass wall
at the new-borns inside. The two of them were thrilled. Especially Laney. She was going to be a mother
soon. Seeing the tiny babies in their cribs, she was moved to tears.
She imagined her baby would be even cuter. A baby cried, and a nurse entered the room, took the
babyâs temperature, checked his diaper, and fed him.
The nurseâs calm and gentle expertise impressed Janet and Laney, who watched from outside.
Nurses constantly patrolled the rooms and corridors to ensure there were no accidents. Laney was
satisfied with the professional management and the nursesâ attitudes.
After a thorough investigation, Janet had discovered this hospital had received the highest praise on
the Internet. According to data, the probability of new mothers getting postpartum depression after
giving birth in this hospital was tiny.
Leo had put his heart into it. After learning this and seeing it all first-hand, Laney was in a far brighter
mood. âNo wonder Garrettâs father chose this hospital. There are no problems with the levels of
professionalism or the service here.â
Janet nodded. âHave you made up your mind?â
âI have no objection.â Laney nodded, smiling Her heart felt light.
Leoâs past behavior had caused problems, but she knew after visiting the hospital heâd recommended
that she was not despised. On the contrary, the Harding family must attach great importance to her and
the baby in her belly.
She would not oppose their choice simply to go against the Hardings. After confirming the hospital,
Laney sent someone to move her luggage into her ward and inform Lola of her decision.
Lola was restless. After receiving the message, she breathed a sigh of relief and reported the matter to
Leo.
However, Lola was unhappy. She kept thinking about the way Laney had left her alone.
Although she was merely an assistant, Leo had appointed her personally. She felt humiliated that
Laney allowed Janet to treat her badly.
While she couldnât afford to offend the noble Janet, Laney was a softer target. Before Laney got
married, she was a bodyguard. Her marriage to Garrett elevated her status, and she became part of a
wealthy and powerful family.
The more Lola thought about it, the more she disliked Laney.
Laney didnât know how Lola felt. She remained blissfully unaware of her assistantâs resentment. She
was leaving the hospital after the tour when she saw Garrett there smiling broadly.
Laney was overjoyed. She started to approach him but stopped when she realized Garrett was not
here to meet her.
