Chapter 1371 Your Husband Has An Affair
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Soon after Lexiâs departure, as Janet was enjoying her coffee, preparing to work, another knock
echoed through the door. "Lexi, did you forget something?"
Janet called out, looking up. The entrance swung open to reveal not Lexi but a different figure, causing
Janet to halt mid- sentence.Her features hardened, her voice frosty.
"Mr.Lambert, to whom do I owe this unexpected visit?" It was Clyde, a face she hadnât seen in a while,
not Lexi. Recalling the image of Brandon seemingly too close with another womanâan image Clyde
had sent herâa shadow passed over Janetâs face.
She understood that Clyde was attempting to stir up trouble.
"Mr.Lambert, unless itâs urgent, Iâd kindly ask you to leave.My schedule is rather full today."
To his surprise, Clyde noticed Janet ignored the image he sent.He squinted at her, irritated.
"You saw the photo I sent you yesterday, didnât you? Why so calm? Youâre still close with Brandon even
after seeing him cozy up to another woman?" He had been lingering outside the studio that morning,
hoping the photo would drive a wedge between Brandon and Janet, allowing him to swoop in as a
comforting presence. However, Janet and Brandon had only grown closer. Before Janet could utter a
word, Clyde turned away, disappointment clouding his features.
"I always saw you as an ambitious and capable woman, not like those solely chasing wealth.Could you
be willing to overlook your husbandâs infidelity for money?" Clydeâs insinuations set Janet ablaze.She
slammed her hand down on the desk, rising to her feet.Her brow furrowed in fury.
"What are you trying to accomplish, Clyde Lambert? Since when do you have any say in my marital
affairs?"
Seeing Janet this enraged was a first for Clyde, leaving him somewhat stunned.He mumbled, "I just
chanced upon Brandon at Larson Groupâs entrance, flirting with another woman.I only wanted to help
you, Janet.Brandon is not a good man.You should consider divorcing him."
A sarcastic smirk graced Janetâs lips.
"Divorce him, and then what? Hook up with you?"
Initially, Janet had only meant to silence Clyde with her words, but he didnât catch the sarcasm.He
earnestly nodded.
"If you choose to divorce, I wonât mind that youâve been married before."
Janetâs laughter bubbled, tinged with exasperation.
"Mr.Lambert, donât flatter yourself.My husband and I are deeply in love.We have no intentions of
divorcing, not now or ever."
"Janet, youâre degrading yourself!"
Clydeâs expression was that of sorrow, as if Janet had committed an unthinkable act.
"Youâre a gifted designer.How could you let yourself be tainted by wealth and power?" He gazed at her,
seemingly genuinely concerned.
"Men like Brandon only see dollar signs.He could easily cheat on you.Heâs unworthy of you.Heâll only
lead you astray!" Clydeâs presumptuousness was stunning to Janet. Her features were icy, she
declared, "Whether I stray or not is none of your concern.As for my husband and me, itâs none of your
business.Donât show up here again!"
Clyde grew frantic as he realized he couldnât sway her.
"But Brandon reallyâ¦"
"I trust my husband! He wouldnât cheat on me.Leave Now,"
Janet cut him off coldly.
Clyde still wanted to reason with her but was interrupted by Lexi entering, drawn by the commotion.
Janet turned to Lexi with a nod and said, "Escort him out."
Clyde, flushed with anger, stormed out, leaving behind a threat.
"Youâll regret this."
