Chapter 1168
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 1168 Garrettâs Old Acquaintance
Laney hadnât been seeing Garrett often ever since he took over the family business. The two of them
spent very little time together now. As a result, she was surprised to find that heâd be picking her up
today.
âYou two are so adorable,â Janet teased as she placed a hand on Laneyâs shoulder with an affectionate
look on her face.
Laney couldnât help but blush like a little girl. As she walked up to Garrett to hold of his hand, he just
went right past her and walked straight ahead. He stopped in front of another woman, with a big smile
on his face.
Laney was stunned. The look of excitement she previously had gradually faded away. Wasnât Garrett
there to pick her up?
âHi, Garrett. Long time no see.â The woman greeted him first. She wore a crisp tailored suit that
complemented her tall and slender figure. She had an air of confidence about her, which made her
even more captivating.
She seemed like the perfect match for Garrett. Laney unconsciously clenched her fists. As she looked
at the handsome man and the gorgeous woman standing in front of her, she felt a slight sense of
inferiority.
On the other end of things, Garrett hadnât noticed Laney not too far away from where he stood, and
continued chatting and laughing with the woman.
He had actually come to pick Laney up today, but hadnât expected to bump into Kailee, his former
classmate and first love, there. The two broke up amicably and agreed to stay friends afterwards. Now
that theyâd unexpectedly met, they naturally had no reason to ignore each other.
âWerenât you abroad?â Garrett raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile. When did you get back?â
âIâve been back for a few days. Iâd planned on inviting everyone out for dinner sometime, but Iâve been
a bit too busy lately,â Kailee said with a helpless look. âI have a lot of business matters to deal with.â
Garrett nodded in understanding, and then asked, âWhatâre you doing here, though? If Iâm not
mistaken, this is a maternity and child hospital. Are you married now?â
Waving the documents in her hand, Kailee smiled and replied, âThis hospital belongs to my family. Iâm
here to carry out an inspection.â After speaking, she looked at Garrett up and down and was a little
surprised. âI didnât expect that after so many years, youâd look more mature than ever before.â
Garrett took a look at himself and joked, âReally? Arenât I still as handsome as ever?â
Kailee shook her head with a smile and said, Stop joking. âWhat are you doing here, by the way?â
âIâm here to pick up my wife,â Garrett replied. Janet couldnât stand watching the two of them talk and
laugh anymore. She held Laneyâs hand, and they made their way towards them and cut their
conversation short.
âWhatâre you doing, Garret? Come help me,â Janet called to him in a harsh tone.
Kailee was visibly shocked by this. She looked at the two women from head to toe, and then fixed her
eyes on Janet.
She must be Garrettâs wife. Kailee thought to herself.
As for the other pregnant woman, Kailee didnât pay her any mind. She didnât imagine that Garrett, the
playboy, would have a child while still young, let alone marry an ordinary woman who didnât look like a
buzzing socialite at first glance.
Janet, on the other hand, looked quite chic and elegant. She seemed more like Garrettâs type.
Despite this, she didnât look like she came from a wealthy family, so she might not have matched up to
Kailee after all.
This put a confident smile on Kaileeâs face, as she felt a sense of superiority.
Just as she was about to greet Janet, she was surprised to see Garrett affectionately holding Laney.
âKailee, this is my wife, Laney. Iâm here to pick her up. Honey, this is my old classmate, Kailee Gibson.â
Garrett warmly introduced them to each other.
