Chapter 362: Fell Into The Water
The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Laney had been in a bad mood the entire week after the incident. Janet knew that she was still blaming
herself for the problem between Garrett and his girlfriend.
Therefore, she planned to go shopping with Laney on Saturday to cheer her up. She bought some
chicken nuggets from a shop on the street. It was a cold wintry day; the perfect season to enjoy hot,
fried chicken. Janet put a chicken nugget into Laneyâs mouth.
âStop sulking! It has been one whole week. Perhaps the misunderstanding between Garrett and his
girlfriend is cleared by now. They might have gotten back together already.â After eating the nugget,
Laney let out a weary sigh.
âI donât think so. They have really broken up, you know.â
Janet was taken aback.
âEven so, itâs no big deal,â she comforted Laney.
âIt was just a misunderstanding. None of it is your fault. Anyway, Garrett changes girlfriends faster than
he changes his clothes. Perhaps he was just tired of his girlfriend again.â
Laney smiled but didnât say anything. She understood that Janet was trying to make her feel better.
However, her words didnât seem to help. She had to figure this out herself.
After shopping, they went to a scenic spot that had recently opened in Seasisco. Janet pointed at the
lofty mountain and said, âI heard on the news that the snow would rime the mountain, making it look
like a huge ice cream cone.â
She wanted to somehow make Laney feel better, and nothing better could uplift oneâs mood than the
beauty of nature.
Unexpectedly, a crew was filming there. As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw
that people had gathered around to watch the shoot.
Janet wasnât interested in celebrities. But if Laney liked them, she didnât mind joining her.
âDo you like stars?â
âI only like action movie stars.â Laney smiled.
It seemed like they were shooting a soap opera. A huge crowd had gathered, and they couldnât
squeeze their way inside.
At last, the two of them found a quiet place by the lake and sat down. Just as Janet wondered what to
say to make Laney feel better, she heard someone call her name.
âJanet!â The voice sounded familiar. She turned around and saw a female star greeting her from a
distance.
As the woman walked closer, Janet recognized her. Emaniâs contract with the Larson Group had just
expired. She was no longer the spokesperson of the Larson Groupâs clothing brand, which meant
Emani didnât have to try being friends with Janet anymore.
âYou just saw me. Why didnât you come and talk to me? Luckily, I have good eyesight, so I recognized
you from afar.â Emani was wearing bright lip gloss. She smiled, revealing her pearly teeth that made
her look kind and innocent.
However, Janet was on guard. Emani was acting weird, and weird meant dangerous. The woman had
never liked Janet. Why would she be so nice to her all of a sudden? Something seemed fishy.
Janet had no intention of talking to Emani. However, a group of reporters and fans had already
gathered around Emani, taking pictures.
If Janet were rude or impolite, Emaniâs fans would wreck her life.
âThere were too many people, so I didnât want to disturb you.â
Janet smiled and turned to leave. However, Emani immediately grabbed Janetâs hand and sat beside
her as if they were great friends.
âWe havenât seen each other for a long time. How have you been? Have you gotten over what
happened?â A frown lined Janetâs forehead.
ââWhatâs wrong with her? Why is she asking such stupid questions? We donât even really know each
other.ââ
