Chapter 3
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 3 A Watch Worth Millions
Everyone looked at the man in awe. He seemed to exude an effortless charm.
Jocelynâs eyes lit up. She guessed the handsome man would be one of Ethanâs two elder brothers. The
Lester family was one of the most powerful families in the city. After all, Ethan was an illegitimate son
â Jocelyn felt he would never stand a chance against the noble members of the family. The man
before her looked charming and regal, so she thought he must be the legal heir of the family.
His good looks and charm both surprised and excited her. She thought Steve was a handsome man,
but compared with the man in front of her, Steve undeniably became the bottom-of-the-barrel type.
Jocelyn walked forward and greeted the man. âAre you Ethanâs brother?â Merely looking him in the eye
made her blush. âWell, the groomâs family is yet to come. Please take a seat. The wedding wonât
commence for a while.â
She even wanted to ask for his phone number, but because of the occasion, she did not dare be so
bold.
The man didnât bat an eyelid at her. He ignored her and went straight to Janet.
Jocelynâs face burned with embarrassment. The shyness and excitement vanished in an instant.
She angrily returned to her seat. Her eyes widened in horror when she saw the handsome man take
position beside Janet. That was when it dawned on her: he was none other than the bridegroom,
Ethan.
Jocelyn shook her head in disbelief. âHow could Ethan look this handsome?â
She leaned over and whispered in Fionaâs ear,
âMom, why didnât you find a photo of Ethan for me? If I had known what he looked like, I wouldnât have
asked Janet to marry him in place of me.â
Fiona closed her eyes and blew out a loud breath, shaking her head in disapproval. Then, she turned
and cast a reproachful look at her daughter. âYou are still young. When you grow up, you will know that
a manâs appearance is the least important thing. Ethan is a loser â he doesnât even have a decent job.
He is a useless idiot who doesnât have a life. He is the perfect match for Janet. The two will remain
outcasts forever.â
Jocelyn didnât bother retorting. However, she hated the fact that Janet was going to marry a handsome
man. He looked like a movie star.
Ethan walked to Janet and studied her face. âIâm late because I had to deal with personal affairs,â he
said flatly, scratching his brows.
âIt doesnât matter.â Janet didnât mind. She was glad to know that Ethan was a good-looking man. There
was at least something good about him.
Just as she turned, her gaze settled on the Patek Philippe watch on his wrist that was dazzling under
the sunlight.
Although she wasnât rich, she had seen enough of the world to know the value of the watch. She
recognized at a glance that the watch was worth at least a million dollars. Her eyebrows shot up in
surprise.
Everyone had told her that Ethan was a poor lowly man. That was why they wanted Janet to marry him
in the first place. How could he afford such an expensive watch then?
