Chapter 359: Cause A Scene
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
â I donât need anyone to tell me about that! Iâve already known that something was off about you since a
long time ago!â Tracey crossed her arms, cast Laney a hostile glance, and scoffed. The way she looked
at Laney was so judgmental.
Laney swallowed, turned her head, and continued eating without responding. Since she wasnât allowed
to leave, she figured it would be better to continue eating.
Besides, she wasnât full yet. Garrett put down his chopsticks, and spoke in a patient manner
âI think you misunderstood. This is my secretary. She saved my life a few days ago, and for that, she
got injured. Sheâs only just been discharged from the hospital today, so I figured Iâd take her here and
treat her to a meal.â
Tracey sneered while glancing at Laney. She then looked back at Garrett and asked, âYour secretary?
Do you think Iâm an idiot? A few days ago, I conducted an investigation. She may appear to be your
secretary, but she hasnât done any real work that pertains to a secretaryâs job description. I think itâs
fairly obvious who she really is.â â
Having said that, Tracey looked exasperated. âIâve never done anything wrong to you, Garrett! Why did
you do this to me?â
Garrett didnât know what to say at this point.
He couldnât tell Tracey who Laney really was, so he figured he should turn to Ethan for help. But when
he glanced around the table, he noticed that Ethan and Janet were nowhere to be found.
âLetâs not talk about this here. We should talk about this once weâre home, okay?â Garrett stood from
his seat, grabbed Traceyâs hand, and was about to leave the restaurant
However, Tracey was riled up again. âWhy canât we talk here, huh? Are you afraid that your little
mistress will find out the truth?â
She then glanced at Laney and growled, âYou uneducated slut! Didnât your parents teach you not to
seduce someone elseâs boyfriend?â
Even Garrett found Traceyâs words too harsh. He squeezed her hand and gently rebuked her.
âTracey, play nice.â
Laney had always been an upstanding person, and sheâd never been insulted like this. She stood up,
wore a straight face, and said, âMiss, I am not seducing Mr. Harding here. Weâre simply having a meal
together. Besides, we werenât on our own! Our other colleagues were with us earlier.â
Tracey glared at her and grunted, âLie all you want; thatâs not going to help!â
After saying that, she turned to Garrett and tugged on his sleeve.
âGarrett, since you say that thereâs nothing going on between you two, fire her if you want me to believe
you!â.
The latter shook his head, adjusted his glasses, and put on a stern face.
âI canât just fire her! I donât even have the authority to do that.â
This was something that he couldnât decide by himself. He still had to discuss it with Ethan first.
Now, Tracey was even angrier than before.
âYouâre supposed to be in a high position in the Larson Group and you canât even fire your own
secretary? So, you really were lying just now, werenât you?â
Right after she finished speaking, she overturned the table in anger.
Laney was quick to react. She darted backwards to avoid getting hit.
The tableware fell to the ground in an instant. The noise was so loud that it attracted the attention of the
other guests dining here.
Now, everyone was staring at them.
