Chapter 1179 Select Another Assistant

The assistant chosen by the Harding family for Laney had proved unreliable, so Janet decided to

source a replacement personally. When Janet arrived home, she requested information about the

White family’s assistants. She wanted to find someone with a strong sense of professionalism to care

for Laney.

But after looking through the profiles, Janet couldn’t find anyone she liked.

The assistants’ resumes were good, but each lacked something.

When she reached the final one, her eyes lit up. Ian Lopez was the last assistant listed on the

document.

He had beautiful long hair and a handsome face. His resume was as strong as Sean’s, and he even

had a medical background. According to his resume, Ian had been part of an emergency medical team

for several years.

He would be the perfect choice to take care of Laney, especially as she would soon give birth. Janet

studied Ian’s information with great interest. She didn’t notice Brandon’s return. When Brandon entered

the room, he saw Janet scrutinizing the documents absorbedly.

Curious, he leaned over her shoulder to see what she was reading.

After he discovered that these documents were all resumes of assistants, Brandon kissed Janet’s

cheek and asked, “Are you looking for a new assistant?”

Janet was startled by Brandon’s voice. She touched his nose with her fingertip. “Why didn’t you tell me

you were home?”

“I was intrigued to know what you were so interested in.”

Brandon sat beside her and held her tightly. He pinched her cheek affectionately. “Have you found a

suitable assistant?”

Janet nodded. “It’s for Laney. The one hired by the Harding family isn’t reliable.”

She pointed at Ian’s resume as she spoke. “I think this guy is quite suitable. He’s got all the capabilities

I need. And he probably could take good care of Laney. But I want to double check. I need to make

sure she has the best.” Brandon didn’t appreciate Janet’s attention being diverted away from him.

She was only choosing an assistant. Why did she need to be so thorough? Whoever Janet chose

would be perfect. Brandon grabbed the documents from her hands and threw them aside. “You don’t

need to look any further. If your first instinct is to like him, he will be the right one. I chose Sean

because I liked him straight away, and he has worked for me for many years and always been

suitable.”

Janet thought that made sense. And pressed against Brandon’s chest, she found it impossible to focus

her attention on anything else.

She would choose Ian and hope that he would take good care of Laney until she safely gave birth.

******

Laney’s due day was getting closer and closer, her belly was getting heavier, and her movements

slower.

The assistant Leo had hired, Lola, frequently disappeared, and Laney had to do many things herself.

Early that morning, when Laney woke, she felt thirsty, but Lola did not answer her call. She held her

stomach and struggled to get out of bed for some water.

However, her hand trembled, spilling the water and smashing the cup.

Laney felt discouraged. Her belly was too big for her to bend down and clean up. Just as she was

trying to decide what she should do, a large but slender hand began picking up the pieces from the

floor.

Laney raised her head and saw a long-haired handsome man. He threw the debris into the trashcan

and poured another glass of water for her.

“Thank you,” Laney said, accepting the cup. The man smiled at Laney and said, “It’s nice to meet you,

Mrs. Harding.”
