After Being Cheating novel Chapter 299

'Mr. Si... No! What did Janet send me this?' Spark wondered.

...

Angela was free, so Janet had asked her to go shopping.

"Jane, what are you going to do with all these makeup?" Angela looked at the woman paying the bill, wondering why she needed it since her skin didn't need any of these.

"I'm going to use them!" Janet said indifferently.

She hadn't been a fan of makeup before, but she would start using them from now on.

"Okay then... Anyway, the makeup that the saleslady did for you looks great!" Angela smiled with amazement.

For Janet to try the products, the saleslady did a short demo on Janet's face using the store's best-selling products.

And since Janet was keen on her agenda, she bought all the products the saleslady had recommended.

"Yes. These work well on me." She took the bags from the saleslady and dragged Angela to the next shop.

If the makeup didn't look good, she wouldn't waste her time buying them.

She had planned to buy some bags, clothing, and shoes, but upon seeing the closet that Daniel had prepared for her, she didn't have to shop for more.

As they were walking, a lipstick shop caught Janet's attention. "Angela, look! Which color is better?"

She had just bought two lipsticks. But Janet could never resist beautiful things.

The card she held now was just the one she had given to her parents. Samuel didn't use the money. Instead, he deposited money in the account.

While Angela concentrated on selecting lipsticks for Janet, a man's voice said, "Janet, do you like them?"

Janet reflexively nodded. She liked the shades and packaging of the lipsticks.

"Excuse me, would you please pack these up? I'll pay for them."

As Janet realized what had happened, she turned around, "Brian!"

Brian, still in his military uniform, gave his card to the overjoyed saleslady and smiled at Janet.

A woman stood behind him. It was Ivanka.

"Long time no see. How are you doing?" Brian was surprised to see Janet here.

Janet said hello to Ivanka, who smiled a little stiffly.

No woman would be happy to see her husband to spend so much to buy lipsticks for another woman!

"I just came back from Z Country. What about you? Shopping with Mrs. Ivanka?" Their marriage news spread quickly within the upper-class families.

"When did you become so interested in makeup?" Brian looked at her beautiful face carefully. He still remembered Janet would never put on makeup unless necessary.

Speaking of makeup, Janet remembered that Brian had the saleslady pack all the lipsticks up.

She hastily ran to the cashier and said, "Wait!"

But it was too late. The saleslady had already swiped Brian's card and processed the transaction.

"Don't worry about it, Janet. It's... to thank you for what you've done for Bill!" Brian took his card from the saleslady and put it in his wallet.

"Brian, you didn't have to. I can't use them all up!" The saleslady had packed up 36 lipsticks of different colors, all amounting to a hundred thousand.

Brian smiled and pointed to Angela who was looking at some lipsticks nearby, "They are yours now. You can give some to her. She is your friend, isn't she?"

Gosh, no! Janet was reluctant. She then went to Ivanka who stood still and said, "Mrs. Ivanka, come and pick some for yourself."

She wanted to explain the whole situation to Ivanka further. Janet didn't want to make Ivanka feel bad since it was obvious that Brian bought the lipsticks for her. But explaining it would seem like making an excuse.

Ivanka hadn't seen Brian smile that often.

He was always serious, except during sex. He always treated her indifferently, as if she was only a recruit in his troops.

Oh, there's another exception - their son. Brian was always happy to see their son.

Ivanka knew that it was Daniel whom Janet loved, but she also knew that Brian had loved Janet...

She couldn't help but feel jealous.

"Don't worry, Janet. Take them. We have just arrived, and we will stay for a while." Brian put the lipsticks that were taken out by Janet into the bag again.

Since he couldn't love Janet any longer, he could at least buy her something.

It was the only way for him to show affection.

Janet became even more anxious. She tugged at Brian's sleeve and said, "Brian, won't Mrs. Ivanka be..." She couldn't say it. She didn't want to make it more awkward.

Damn it!

Luckily, Ivanka could tell that Janet's intentions were in the right place, so she said, "Miss Janet, it's okay. Just keep them!"

Brian seemed to have finally taken the hint. He glanced at his wife, who was not that happy, and felt guilty.

It was her birthday today. He took some time off to hang out with her.

"This is the last time, Janet. Just take it!" He said those not only for Janet, but also for Ivanka.

Now that he was married, he had to consider Ivanka's feelings. He was still not used to it, so he acted impulsive at times.

Janet decided to explain, "Mrs. Ivaka, I'm dating Daniel Si. We... are getting married too. Let's hang out when you're free!"

She was not showing off. She merely said that to clear any misunderstandings.

Brian's smile disappeared when he heard that.

Ivanka understood what Janet was doing. She said softly, "Certainly. I wish you all the best! Please invite us to your wedding if you'd like."

Brian was a soldier. It was his handsome appearance and manliness that attracted Ivanka at the beginning.

"Absolutely! May I call you Ivanka?" Janet held Ivanka's hand. She had nothing against her since she found out that there was nothing between Ivanka and Daniel and that she was only set up by her father.

Ivanka smiled and nodded, "Of course. I'll call you Janet then!"

The tense air wafted away, and they quickly became friends. Janet called over Angela and introduced her to Ivanka.

The three women left the shop laughing and talking. Brian followed behind them, watching them hand in hand.

Women's friendships are one of a kind.

Ten minutes later, Janet picked up a bag and gave it to Ivanka, "I didn't know it's your birthday. So here! It's my gift for you. Happy birthday!"
