Chapter 382
The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride
It never occurred to Janet that Brandon had the same looks as her own husband, Ethan, who seldom dressed up and was highly neglectful of his appearance.
She wished she could rush up and fling open the door so that she could take a closer look. She even wanted to barge headlong into the CEOâs office and spin Brandon around to face her so that she could see exactly what he looked like.
But she wasnât that bold. After all, Brandon was the CEO of the Larson Group, and was her bossâs boss. She dared not offend him in the slightest.
She hadnât managed to catch a glimpse of his entire face. She had just caught a fleeting look at his side profile.
But she was convinced that her eyes hadnât deceived her. Brandonâs side profile looked so similar to Ethanâs, plus they were almost at the same height. Were there really two people who looked so like in this world?
Just then, Janet received a message from Brandon on her phone.
âJanet, why are you under the impression that I have everything to do with whatâs happening in your life? The Larson Group isnât responsible for your life. As for Emani, I just found out about what happened to her this morning from my assistant.â
It never occurred to Janet that Brandon had the same looks as her own husband, Ethan, who seldom dressed up and was highly neglectful of his appearance. Judging from his frigid tone, Janet knew that he had made it clear that he didnât have anything to do with what had happened with Emani.
But this was not a big deal anymore. The thing that was consuming her mind was the fact that Brandon and Ethan looked like spitting images of one another.
And just now, she had already noticed that Brandon was deliberately avoided meeting her. He had just come out of the elevator. Why did he suddenly turn around and go back in the instant his eyes fell on her?
It was quite peculiar indeed.
However, it was not appropriate for her to ask him such a question. If he denied it, it would make her look like a narcissist, wouldnât it?
Janet had no choice but to text him back politely.
âIâm sorry, Mr. Larson. Perhaps I overthought this whole thing. I happened to be in the company just now and I saw you going upstairs. Could I invite you to join me for dinner? You have helped me so many times before. I want to thank you properly in person.â
After sending the message, Janet became overwhelmed by nerves. Somehow, she thought of Ethanâs face again. Brandon looked exactly like him.
Brandon replied immediately this time.
âI just received an urgent meeting invitation. I need to leave the country soon and I will be very busy for the next few days.â
That explained why he suddenly turned around and went back into to the elevator just moments ago.
Staring at the message from Brandon, Janet frowned thoughtfully.
She didnât believe there could ever be such a coincidence. She had seen it clearly just now with her own two eyes. As soon as Brandon saw her, he walked into the elevator without looking back.
But it was too far away, so she hadnât really got to see his face clearly until she rushed over and the elevator door almost closed.
However, seeing such a reply, there was nothing more Janet could say. After all, Brandon was her boss. She couldnât demand that he have dinner with her.
âOkay. Iâll thank you in person when you are free someday.â
She pursed her lips. She really had no choice but to go to her desk and get her keys.
Staring at the closed elevator door, she felt regretful, but her hands were tied. She took out her phone and called Ethan.
Since she couldnât ask Brandon, she could at least ask Ethan about it.
