After Being Cheating novel Chapter 249

Out of nowhere, Sven took out a surgery knife and swirled it around his fingers three times before he stabbed it in the car's door, sharply next to Amy's ear.

Without uttering another single word, he then walked towards his own car.

Amy wasn't hurt at all, but Sven's sudden move had petrified her, and she had started to scream unstoppably when she saw the reflecting knife's blade so close to her ear.

Hobson stared at the knife, knowing that it was a clear warning sign coming from Sven. Out of anger, he stepped hard on the accelerator and within seconds, his car stormed out of the parking lot.

Janet was about to follow her brother to his car, but Jerry took her by the hand and shoved her into Daniel's car instead.

"I need some time alone with Sally!"

...

What nonsense! Janet frowned at his petty excuse.

Daniel cast a glance at the hesitant Janet, and said, "What now? Are you unhappy to sit in my car?"

What a woman she was! His car was worth millions of dollars and yet it still didn't catch her attention!

Janet then changed her face. She thought about his earlier heroic behaviour, and felt that it would be unfair for her to pull a face at him. She quickly explained, "I'm not unhappy. I'm just a little bit upset that my brother didn't want me in his car!"

Her explanation made Daniel feel good.

He suddenly leaned towards her. Janet was sitting tight in the passenger's seat with her back straight, recalling what he had said in the restaurant... She looked at him vigilantly, and asked, "What do you want?"

Daniel laughed as he helped her with the safety belt, and said, "I don't want to have a traffic fine just because you don't have your safety belt put on!"

Janet was relieved, and she smirked at him, "You, Daniel Si the CEO, are afraid of receiving traffic ticket?"

"Of course, I am. I'm a law-abiding good citizen!"

...

His narcissistic tone made Janet speechless. Did Daniel say that he abided by the law?

She did not believe him one single bit!

As he started the engine, Daniel glanced at her, and while he coldly opened his mouth, he said, "When you were gone, Jerry and your father spent a lot of time and effort trying to locate your whereabouts."

Janet felt guilty at his words, and she murmured at him, "Why are you mentioning this now?"

"Jerry is one of my closest friends, and you are his younger sister. I know for a fact that he cares about you a good deal." During the first year when Janet had ran away from home, she had still kept in touch with her family over the telephone. But starting from the second year, she lost contact with them completely.

Jerry was furious when all of his searches had turned out to be vain, and after countless unanswered calls, he had asked Daniel out and got into a huge fight with him.

Jerry had blamed Daniel for Janet's disappearance. He believed that Janet had left everything behind and had walked out on them because Daniel had broken her heart.

After that, Jerry had made it clear to him that he did not want him to see his sister anymore, and that under no circumstances would he ever agree to the two being together again.

However, Janet eventually showed up on Daniel and Shirley's wedding. This had made Jerry realize that Janet still cared about Daniel, and that he should not interfere with their relationship anymore.

The only thing that he now hoped for them was a wedding.

He had supported Daniel as a friend, and he had also witnessed him spending endless time and effort looking for Janet's whereabouts during the past three years.

It had cost him a fortune.

Janet had been really good at hiding herself. The Si family, the Li family, and the Bo family had all went out searching for her, but to no avail.

...

Janet was confused, and wondered why would Daniel keep talking about her brother now.

"Why are you talking about him?"

Whether her brother had treated her well, or not, that was up to her to decide. Jerry had supported her in every aspects, except when it came to her relationship with Daniel.

Daniel sighed, and said, "I care about your brother."
