The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Right now, there was nothing else Janet could do but wait for Ethan to come up with something.
As the days went by, the snow in Seacisco became stronger.
At sunset, Ethan returned from his long journey. Snow had piled up on his black wool coat.
“Are you okay? It’s too cold outside. Have dinner first so you could warm up. Let’s go to the shopping mall once I get my salary
so we can buy some clothes for you.” Ethan always wore this black coat. Janet understood that he didn’t need a lot of winter
clothes, but she didn’t want him to live so poorly.
After patting off the snow from his coat, Ethan hung it on the coat rack. The grey sweater he wore under the coat was revealed. It
wasn’t from a luxury brand; in fact, Janet only bought it on sale. But because Ethan was in good shape, the sweater looked
expensive when he wore it.
“The clothes in the shopping mall are very expensive. Didn’t you just lend someone fifty thousand dollars? Let’s postpone that for
now.” Standing in the doorway, Ethan stared at Janet. The dim light accentuated his handsome face.
Guilt was evident on Janet’s face. She was silent for a while before finally saying, “I know I shouldn’t have indulged Tyler, but I
have to help him for Hannah’s sake...”
Her soft voice gradually trailed.
Noticing that Janet was feeling down, Ethan walked over and stared at her with eyes brimming with affection. Then he raised her
chin and kissed her passionately.
He sucked on her bottom lip, biting into it. Just as Ethan was about to lose control, he let go of her lips and said in a gentle tone,
“I’m not blaming you. Don’t worry. I have asked my friend for help. He has talked to someone who works at the casino. They
have agreed for Tyler to pay them back in installments.”
Surprised by the news, Janet raised her head and asked, “You really know a lot of people, don’t you? Did it cost you a lot to ask
your friend for help?”
Ethan gently pinched her chin and answered, “It’s not a big deal. He happened to owe me a lot of favors. Just tell Tyler to get a
job. He has to have an income to afford to pay his debt every month. In that way, he could also support himself and start anew.”

“I’ll tell Tyler the good news later. Finally, there’ll be a solution to his problem.” Now, Janet’s face looked livelier. She snaked her
arms around Ethan’s waist and praised him with a smile, “You’re so smart.”
What she did made Ethan chuckle, but he arched his eyebrows. “Is that all I’d get?”
The smile on Janet’s lips grew wider as she understood what he meant. She stood on tiptoe and kissed Ethan on the cheek.
It wasn’t enough for the latter, so he held the back of her neck and pressed his lips on hers. With one hand on her waist, he lifted
Janet up and pressed her against the sofa.
They sucked in their breaths as Ethan pressed himself against Janet, letting his hand wander on her body under her clothes.
It couldn’t be denied that Janet was greatly affected by his touch. She felt wet between her legs, wanting him. Her flushed face
also gave her away. However, she closed her legs and said, “Not now. I have to call Tyler to tell him the news first.”
Hearing this, Ethan’s face darkened. “Are you kidding?”
“You’re the best!” Janet giggled like a spoiled child and gave him a peck on the lips.
While Ethan was in a daze, she took the opportunity to flee. She shouted as she ran away, “I will thank you next time!”
In the end, Ethan could only heave a sigh. He watched Janet run away and shook his head in amusement.
As soon as Janet entered the bedroom, she took out her phone and called Tyler.
The latter’s excited voice rang in her ear. “Have you paid them already?”
“No. But I have tried my best to help you. They have agreed to let you pay your debts in installments with low interest. You just
need to pay them a part of the debts every month. There’s no need for you to hurry. Just find a job and slowly pay them back.
Those men won’t bother you again.” A bright smile was plastered on Janet’s face as she spoke, thinking that Hannah wouldn’t
have to worry about Tyler anymore.
There was a brief silence before Tyler spoke again. This time, he didn’t sound excited anymore. “Oh, I see.”
Judging from his tone, Janet could tell that he wasn’t happy with the news. Instead, he sounded disappointed and dissatisfied.
