After Being Cheating novel Chapter 252

"What are you doing?" asked Shirley.

"Is that woman the mother of Daniel's child?" asked Sabina.

Shirley nodded, and thought in her mind, 'Damn it! Janet should play such a trick on me!' Shirley didn't expect that this was Janet's trick.

Sabina strolled around in the living room. She looked at Shirley, and suggested, "How about we cooperate with each other? One day, after Daniel will abandon that woman, we'll start our own fair competition. What do you say?"

'Fair competition?' Shirley really wanted to laugh at her. She was Daniel's fiancee now, and she wondered how this ex-girlfriend of his could ever compete with her!

But still, Shirley nodded, and said, "Okay, but Janet is also my best friend. Don't hurt her too much!"

Shirley had suddenly softened her heart, but Sabina looked at her face, and scornfully tittered, "If she's your best friend, why has she then taken away your fiance? She doesn't consider you as being her best friend at all!"

Her words struck and dumbfounded Shirley.

Sabina thought that she was feeling distressed about it, but in actuality, Shirley was feeling guilty, because she had been the one who hadn't regarded Janet as her best friend in the first place.

"I won't leave until I can get in touch with Daniel, and you don't have to leave, either. Let's wait for them to come, and we'll get rid of that woman together, once and for all!" said Sabina.

She then again seated herself on the sofa in the living room. Shirley took a look at her wristwatch, and didn't say anything in reply.

"I need to go to the bathroom, " said Shirley. She put her handbag on the table, and then took out her phone.

Sabina waved to her, and then she began playing on her own phone on the sofa.

Inside the bathroom

Shirley locked the door, and went up to the window. She then dialed Daniel's number.

The call was soon connected. "What?" answered Daniel.

"Daniel, I've arrived at your mansion to get rid of Miss Sabina as you've instructed, but no matter what I say to her, she won't leave. I initially wanted to call the security guards, but because she's your... ex-girlfriend, I thought I'd better not do it this way, " reported Shirley.

She started stammering in the last part of her sentence.

'Get rid of?' He glanced at Janet, who was sleeping, and thought that she really was fierce and decisive in battling her rivals.

He then said, "Okay, I knew all about it. Go back to the company first."

Shirley took a deep breath and gathered all of her courage. She said, "Daniel, how about I wait for you here! In case... Janet is angry; then I might coax her to calm down."

When he thought of the scene when the three women would meet each other, Daniel instantly felt his head ache.

If it hadn't been for Janet, he had really wanted to throw all of these women into a room and let them fight with each other at their own free will.

"Fine, we'll talk later; wait there, " said Daniel. He then hung up, and looked at the woman who was pretending to be asleep.

For the first time in his life, he cautiously opened his mouth and said, "When we arrive in the neighbourhood later, how about you go back to your mansion first?"

After he had settled affairs with Sabina, Janet could come to his mansion at any time.

But then, a sharp and cold stare was instantly cast to Daniel, which made him sit tight on his driver's seat and made his body become rigid.

He had to explain, "I just hope you won't have any conflicts with her. Sabina is a good person, but... just like you, she has a violent temper!"

The best way to deal with the two ill-tempered women was to prevent them from meeting with each other.

"Is my temper violent? Daniel! Tell me that again!" Janet confronted him in an even louder voice.

Under her furious stare, Daniel had to lie and shake his head, but then added something more, "You can go and ask Jerry about his honest opinion on you."

Daniel thought that Jerry would tell her the truth, whether her temper was good, or bad.

Janet then took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Sally. In it, she wrote, "Sally, please ask my brother whether my temper is good or bad. Thanks!"

Janet thought that her temper was much better than it used to be three years ago.

Soon enough, Janet got a voice message from Sally's WeChat account. She clicked the message, and she heard Jerry's voice. He said, "Janet, aren't you aware of your own temper by now? Why are you asking such a question? If your temper could be considered as being 'good', then that means that you'll never find a single good tempered woman in the world! Please, learn from my wife..."

He had stopped talking, because Sally had scolded Jerry that he was so ignorant of Janet's self-esteem.

Daniel had heard clearly Jerry's words, and while bearing his laughter, he kept looking at the road before him and carefully drove his car.

Janet felt unhappy, and wrote him back a message, saying, "Jerry Shao! From now on, we're done being brother and sister!"

She then said to Daniel, "I've made up my mind. I'll go and see Shirley and Sabina, and I'll decide which one is better suited to be my daughter's stepmother. Let me help you with your decision!" Janet had said this in a kind of reasonable way, but actually, in her mind she thought, 'I must go and throw out these two sickening women!'

Daniel wiped off his smile, and with a serious look, told her, "I'll never find a stepmother for my daughter!"

Daniel thought that his daughter could only be brought up by her own father and mother. And for his daughter's sake and happiness, he would also try his best to get Janet back into his life as soon as possible.

Even if he had to take her by force to the Civil Affairs Bureau!

Hearing Daniel's promise, Janet felt quite pleased. 'That sounds better!' thought Janet.

When they had arrived downtown, it had already darkened outside, and Janet had again fallen asleep leaned against her seat.

The whole group then went to have some food together in a restaurant; after that, they separated each on their home.

When they arrived at Mansion No. 8, Janet asked Daniel, "Could you stop at my mansion's door and wait for me?"

"Why aren't you asking me to go in?" snapped Daniel. He was unhappy.

Janet felt speechless, and thought, 'Why should I let you go in? To see the twins? No, that's impossible!'

"I'm just going in to take something. I'll come out in a jiffy!" said Janet.

She had actually missed her daughters so much that she had just wanted to go in and hug them.

Daniel demanded her, "Give me a kiss."

...

To see her daughters, Janet moved her body towards him and kissed him on his cheek.

At the door, Janet hurriedly got out of the car, and rushed into the mansion before Jerry and Sally arrived.

But the mansion's lights were all off, and inside it was just dark and quiet.

She then shouted toward the second floor, "Dad?" But there was no reply.

"Mom?" Still, no one answered her.

'Aren't they at home?' wondered Janet.

While she was walking towards the mansion's door, she took out her phone and called Ella. "Mom, where are you?" asked Janet.

"We're at the old house, but we're not coming back to the mansion tonight, " said Ella.

She had brought Melissa to the old house, and Michelle was taken to the manor by Lola.

"Where are my twins?" She had asked this question while she was standing behind the door; after, she stepped out of the mansion.

Ella told her about the whole situation, and then told Janet, "If you're tired, go to bed earlier. We'll come back to the mansion tomorrow."

"Okay, I know. Mom, let Melissa talk to me for a bit!" said Janet. When she came out of the mansion, Jerry and Sally had already arrived, and they were holding in their hands some packaged gifts in a couple of bags.

She covered the speaker, and said to them, "Brother and sister-in-law, please go in first. I still have something that I need to do."

On the other side of the phone, Melissa was calling out for her mother. Sally glanced at her with an understanding look in her eyes, and then she entered the mansion with her husband.

Sally was very tired after their two days of travelling, and she was more than eager to go to bed now.

"Hello, my sweet baby! I've missed you so much!" Hearing her daughter's calling, Janet grinned a sweet smile.

Daniel was leaning against his car and smoking a cigarette near her.

When he heard her talking with their daughter, he instantly dragged her closer to him, and listened carefully to their words.

While she was sitting on her grandmother's lap, in a cute and soft voice, she said, "Mommy, I missed you and daddy very much!"

Daniel called to her in a tender voice, "My baby! Daddy's missed you too!"

'Our daughter's not in the mansion, because Janet was talking with her on the phone, ' thought Daniel.
