Chapter 1295 Broken Promise

At eight o’clock the next morning,

Brandon was awoken by a phone call. Last night, Janet’s seductive prowess had proved too much for

him to resist, and it wasn’t until dawn that they ended. Exhausted after such intense love-making,

Brandon’s mood turned rotten when his phone rang so early that morning.

When he saw that the call was from Garrett, he rudely ended it and tried to go back to sleep.

To his surprise, Garrett persisted and kept calling.

Gritting his teeth, Brandon finally picked up the phone and barked, “What the hell are you doing?”

Garrett’s cheerful voice came buzzing through from the other end. “Laney started talking to me!”

Brandon’s tone turned menacing. “Did you call just to tell me that?”

“Of course not!”

Garrett didn’t notice the irritation in Brandon’s voice at all, and continued to chatter away excitedly, “I

want to thank you and Janet for your help! If it weren’t for you two, I would’ve thought Laney was going

to divorce me. However, she just told me that she didn’t send those things. It seems like she might still

be in love with me…”

“You idiot.” Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, Brandon hung up immediately.

If he continued to listen to his drivel, he might end up just as stupid as Garrett.

Nevertheless, Brandon was happy to hear that the two of them had made up.

Laney was lucky to have a friend like Janet. Otherwise, if she and Garrett were to have another

misunderstanding, their already fragile relationship would surely hang precariously in the balance. At

this time, Janet was also awoken by the phone conversation. She rubbed her eyes and asked in a

daze, “What’s going on?” Brandon cradled her in his arms and whispered, “Nothing, it was just a

telemarketer. Let’s go back to sleep…”

“Hmm…” Janet snuggled comfortably in his arms and drifted back to sleep.

A week later, Janet finally finished designing the clothes for Carly’s grandmother after putting in several

hours of overtime. Carly then brought her grandmother to the studio to try on the finished outfit.

Inside the fitting room, the elderly woman changed into the clothes and stood in front of the mirror,

trembling lightly as she gazed at herself in the mirror. A slow, contented smile slowly spread across her

weathered face.

“It looks magnificent.” The corners of the elderly woman’s lips couldn’t help but lift up in joy, and her

eyes moistened as she said, “I’ve never worn such a beautiful piece of clothing in my entire life.”

Carly’s eyes turned slightly red with tears as she said, “As long as you’re happy with it, grandma, I’ll

have someone make as many as you want.”

The elderly woman quickly waved her hand and said, “No need for that. I’m quite satisfied with this

one.”

After a moment, she took Carly’s hand and exclaimed with deep emotion, “My little Carly’s all grown up

now and can get me such fine clothes. That’s more than enough to make me very happy.” As she stood

beside them, observing the touching exchange between grandmother and granddaughter, Janet

couldn’t help but think of Hannah. A subtle smile appeared on her lips.

Back when Hannah wore the new clothes she made for her for the first time, a similar scene unfolded,

with tears of joy filling her eyes as she held Janet’s hand tightly and told her how much she loved it.

These thrifty and diligent elderly people had worked hard their entire lives, and now the time had come

for the younger generation to take care of them.

The elderly woman glanced at herself in the mirror over and over again, until

she suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to Janet. With a bit of uneasiness in her

voice, she asked,

Could you please tell me how much this outfit costs?” Behind her grandma’s back, Carly immediately

gave Janet a signal with her eyes.

She wanted Janet to keep the true cost of the outfit from her grandma. Considering how frugal the old

lady was, she was surely going to become agitated if she found out how much Carly had paid for it.

The elderly woman quickly waved her hand and said, “No need for that. I’m quite satisfied with this

one.”

After a moment, she took Carly’s hand and exclaimed with deep emotion, “My little Carly’s all grown up

now and can get me such fine clothes. That’s more than enough to make me very happy.” As she stood

beside them, observing the touching exchange between grandmother and granddaughter, Janet

couldn’t help but think of Hannah. A subtle smile appeared on her lips.

Back when Hannah wore the new clothes she made for her for the first time, a similar scene unfolded,

with tears of joy filling her eyes as she held Janet’s hand tightly and told her how much she loved it.

Janet saw Carly’s signal and gave her a subtle nod, but then proceeded to tell the elderly woman the

true cost of the design. This took Carly surprise, and a glimmer of anger immediately appeared in her

eyes. agreed cary by Hadn’t they agreed not to tell her grandmother the real cost? Why did Janet break

her promise?

Janet, however, remained calm in the face of Carly’s anger.
