The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 984 Cheating
Brandon got off the car, and walked in with Sean, visibly enraged.
The employees of the Larson Group turned their gazes toward the door, eagerly waiting for Brandon.
But to everyoneâs surprise, he didnât approach their table and just continued walking toward the back.
At this moment, Janet was still arguing with Derek regarding the color of the clothes on the design
draft.
Both she and Elizabeth believed that the clothes Derek usually wore at events were too flamboyant.
They thought it would be better for him to wear something low -key this time. On the one hand, solid
colors could accentuate Derekâs chiseled features. But on the other hand, it could diminish his natural
personality and create a contrast.
âClothes usually have a great influence on peopleâs appearances. Perhaps if you change your style, it
could surprise your fans,â Janet suggested. Unbeknownst to her, someone was walking toward them.
She only noticed that someone was there when a shadow hovered over her.
She thought it was just Elizabeth who had come back from the bathroom. Just as she was about to
make way for the latter, she looked up and accidentally made eye contact with Brandon.
âHoney!â Janet was so startled that she knocked over her drink. Her reaction made it seem like she
was guilty as Brandon caught her red-handed cheating on him.
Flustered, Janet hurriedly cleaned up the table. âI was just talking to Derek about work,â she
stammered.
Derek, on the other hand, was unfazed. He wiped the liquids off the table for Janet with his napkin.
Afterward, he shot Brandon a glance. âMr. Larson, have a seat. Iâm simply talking to Janet about work.
Thereâs no need to be so mad. Just have a look at her. Sheâs so scared that sheâs trembling!â
âDerek, donât make things even worse than it already is,â Janet said through gritted teeth while glaring
at Derek. This guy was always causing her trouble.
He shrugged at her remark and bantered, âWhat are you so mad about? Iâm taking your side! Your
husband is being too strict. Donât you agree?â
âCall Derekâs manager and tell him to take this troublemaker away,â Brandon said to Sean, who was
standing behind him.
Derek sprang to his feet and asked, âWhat? Why are you saying that Iâm a troublemaker, Brandon? I
can take care of myself just fine. Thereâs no need to call Wilder!â
Ignoring Derek, Brandon held Janetâs hand and said, âLetâs go home.â
Feeling aggrieved, Janet answered, âI donât want to. I told you that Iâd be working, right? Besides,
Elizabeth is here, too.â
âWhere is she then?â Brandon looked around and saw that only Janet and Derek were at the table.
âShe is in the bathroom,â Janet said confidently.
However, Elizabeth hadnât returned. Because of how Brendan was looking at her, Janet felt even
guiltier. âOkay. Calm down.â
She then told him to sit down next to her. Sean, on the other hand, sat next to Derek.
âHave a look at the table! There are three sets of tableware, see? I think Elizabeth is coming back
soon, and sheâll prove that Iâm telling the truth,â Janet continued to explain.
Brandon didnât respond, but he sat down to show that he was willing to sit and wait for Janet to prove
that she was telling the truth.
Unexpectedly, a waitress came over and gave them the bill. âMaâam, Sir, hereâs the bill. By the way, do
you still want us to keep the suite for the two of you? If you donât need it, I can cancel it for you,â she
said to Derek.
Confused, Derek glanced at everyone else at the table. He stood up, visibly shocked. âWhen the hell
did I ask to book a suite?â
Brandonâs face turned grim. âLooks like thereâs no need for further explanation.â
Thereafter, he stood up and left.
Janet glared at Derek and said, âWhat prank are you trying to pull off here, Derek?â
She stood up and followed Brandon right away. Only then did she notice that there were employees of
the Larson Group gathered in the restaurant near her.
They all stopped smiling when they saw Janet.
Janet lowered her head and continued to run after Brandon. She just now understood that she
unintentionally humiliated him in front of his employees.
Those employees from earlier must be enjoying the fact that she had a dispute with Brandon.
