Chapter 1170
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 1170 She Is His First Love
Janet was just about to leave when she suddenly thought of the look in Kaileeâs eyes. There was a
strange reluctance and jealousy in her eyes. It didnât look like she was looking at her old classmate, but
like she was looking at her old lover.
Janet immediately got vigilant, thinking that she had the duty to warn Garrett as Laneyâs close friend.
âHold on, Laney. Can I be with Garrett for a while? I need to talk to him about something,â Janet said,
pulling Garrett aside with a frown and looking at him with an inquiring gaze.
âWhatâs wrong?â Garrett was terrified by Janetâs gaze.
âWhatâs your relationship with Kailee? I donât think you two are just classmates,â Janet asked Garrett in
a low voice while secretly glancing at Laney.
Garrett didnât expect Janet to be so sharp that she even sensed that he had a special relationship with
Kailee.
However, Garrett did not want to hide it from her. He looked straight at her and admitted frankly, âWe
used to date when we were in school. And she is my first love.â
âYour first love?â Janet exclaimed.
âKeep your voice down!â Garrett hurriedly glanced at Laney to make sure that she did not hear them.
He then sighed with relief and said helplessly, âThatâs in the past. Weâve both moved on.â
However, Janet didnât believe it because she knew how much men valued their first love. Not to
mention, there was something unusual about the way Kailee looked at Garrett now. It seemed like
Kailee still had feelings for Garrett.
âReally?â With knitted brows, Janet looked at Garrett suspiciously.
Garrett signed helplessly and insisted, âI used to be a playboy back then, but Iâve been absolutely loyal
to Laney ever since Iâm with her. Besides, Kailee and I dated a long time ago. Donât worry, Laney is the
only one I love now.â
Seeing that Garrett didnât seem to be lying, Janet was relieved, but she still reminded him, âSince
Laney is pregnant now, she canât bear to lake any stress or stimulation. Youâd better be careful.â
Garrett nodded firmly. Laney was his beloved wife, and he wouldnât do anything to hurt her. âBut I have
one thing to ask.â Garrett scratched his head and continued, âCan you hide this from Laney for the time
being? You know, she is pregnant now and she is sensitive. Iâm afraid that she might overthink it.â
Janet also felt that it made sense, so she agreed.
After Janet left, Laney asked in confusion, âWhat were you two whispering about? And why were you
being so secretive?â
Garrett made up an excuse and said, âJanet was just scolding me for not taking good care of you and
for not being with you when you came to the hospital.â
Laney was amused by his exaggerated tone, so she didnât dwell on the matter. She touched his nose
intimately and said playfully, âI think Janet is right. How are you going to make amends to me?â
âIâve brought your favorite desserts.â Garrett waved the upscale dessert bag in his hand with pride.
âHow is it? Do you like it?â
But to his surprise, Laney frowned and asked, âWhat about Janet? Didnât you bring her desserts?â
Laney was already feeling guilty because Janet left Brandon to accompany her to look around the
hospitals.
She didnât expect Garrett to be so inconsiderate and thoughtless, which annoyed her. He should have
brought desserts for Janet!
Garrett blinked innocently, pretending to be aggrieved, and held Laneyâs hand gently. âWhen I arrived at
the bakery today, there was only one bag of desserts left, and I had to give priority to you⦠We can
invite Janet to dinner next time.â
Seeing him being so childish, Laney felt resigned. She shook her head and said with a wry smile, âAll
right, all right. Iâll forgive you.â
