After Being Cheating novel Chapter 300

The sexy nightgown she gave to Ivanka was something she and Angela bought for Nicole.

When Janet heard that Sven wanted another baby, she immediately thought of giving Nicole such gift. But now that Janet gave it to Ivanka, Janet needed to find a new one to replace it.

Angela was also carrying a handbag. "Oh look, I have here a wooden hairbrush just for you. Happy birthday, Ivanka!"

It has been a long time since Ivanka received any birthday gifts, "Thank you so much, " said she with tearful eyes.

"You're very welcome. Go enjoy your time with Brian. We shall leave you two lovebirds alone!" Janet nudged Ivanka to Brian who stood behind them. It was such a strong nudge that Ivanka would've fallen, if Brian didn't catch her.

After seeing what she had done, Janet felt embarrassed, so she hurriedly grabbed Angela and said, "You two have great time!"

Those two girls were gone like a gust of wind. Ivanka watched them go with a pleased smile.

"I'm sorry..." The man's apology came out of nowhere, confusing Ivanka. She propped herself up out of his arms and looked at him.

Brian had never acted so intimate with her in public.

Aware of her confusion, Brian explained, "I wasn't being considerate of your feelings. It will not happen again."

Setting his eyes on the spot where Janet was a few minutes ago, he became deep in thought. He was relieved now that he knew someone else was taking good care of her. It was no longer his responsibility to do so.

Tracking his trail of sight, Ivanka knew what Brian had in mind.

Carefully interrupting his thoughts, she said, "It is nothing. Let's go."

If he was not the one who rescued her at the hotel at that time, she wouldn't have allowed herself to bow to go through this.

But she didn't have a choice.

Brian looked at her from behind and told himself that Janet had her own happiness now. He should, instead, focus on his own family, especially the woman beside him.

It was his first time to hold a woman's hand.

Ivanka wanted to withdraw her hand because she was too nervous. Finally, she stopped struggling.

On the seventh floor of the mall, Angela asked Janet, "Was that Brian? Your admirer?"

She didn't know he was already married.

"That was a long time ago. Don't you see that he has a wife now? Do not mention it again." Janet whole-heartedly wished Brian and Ivanka happiness with each other and a peaceful life together.

Angela nodded and asked, "But who about that Bill?"

"Bill... I almost forgot about him. Let's ask him out someday and have a meal together." Janet pondered if she should take Bill out, so he wouldn't just stay at home and fill his mind with nonsense.

"Did he lose an arm?" Apparently, word had already spread about him.

Bill was a famous playboy in C country, and he was always surrounded by lots of friends. Rumors had been going on that he was already back, but nobody had seen him yet.

"Yes, he did. Hey, Angela, do you think it's possible that your father or Sven can make him an artificial limb?" She thought that it might be easier for him if he got one.

Even though Angela's father and brother were both excellent doctors, they knew nothing about artificial limb technology.

"I shall ask them. I will let you know once I do."

"Good, " Janet nodded, but she also wasn't sure if Bill wanted one.

It was already dusk when Janet and Angela split outside the mall. Janet rode in her car and drove to a corner bistro where she bought some takeout for Daniel.

She sighed upon looking at the paperbag. How could she not know how to cook?

Why did she not inherit the brilliant cooking skills of her parents?

She couldn't let this go on. She already has kids, and someday, they would all be living together with Daniel. She should learn how to cook.

At the SL Group

Janet went up to the 88th floor. Miss Qin saw her and came over, "Boss Si, Mr. Spark and Miss Shirley are meeting clients in the guest room. Would you please wait in the office?"

No one, but her, was allowed to enter the CEO's office.

"Okay, but have you seen his daughter?" Did Daniel bring her with him here?

Miss Qin answered promptly, "Mr. Harry took her out today."

"All right. Thank you. I'll wait inside then."

Miss Qin opened the door of Daniel's office, and Janet stepped in.

After putting his dinner on the table, Janet strolled in front of a wine rack.

"One, two, three... He is such a wine addict. I can't believe he has dozens of bottles, even in the office!" Janet mumbled to herself and stroked her jaw.

She opened a half-empty bottle of wine, poured a glass for herself, and sat on the chair as she waited for Daniel.

When she got bored of waiting, she took out her phone, photographed the glass of wine, and posted it on social media with the caption "Waiting is always boring and endless."

SENT!

Notifications immediately appeared.

Ignoring them, she leaned her head on her arms and stared at the wine, feeling bored.

She suddenly remembered those six months when she was held captive... When the masked man asked her to drink all kinds of alcohol...

Janet was never good at drinking, but after that time, she learned how to handle her alcohol.

She remembered how she suffered from gastric bleeding...

Those men did not even bother to take her to a hospital. Instead, they called a doctor to the cave and treated her there.

The horror in Janet's mind arose. She tried to get the incident off her mind.

Unfortunately, it wasn't working. She remembered the masked man with silver hair whispering, "Go kill Caspar and Dillon..."

"NO!" She cried out and dropped the wine glass down to the ground.

Wine split everywhere, but the glass fell on the carpet and remained intact...

She jumped off the chair in panic, looking around the office, hearing her own heavy heart beat.

Where was Daniel? Where was he?

She didn't want to be alone!

The air inside the room seemed to suffocate her. She started feeling out of breath. She clutched her chest and sat on the ground.

"I am not going back there... NO!" Fear made her throat hoarse and her face pale.

When Daniel got back to his office, he saw Janet on the floor. Startled, he quickly turned around and handed the papers to Shirley.

Shirley had never seen Janet this pale before.

She never knew that she got any disease.

"Jane, what's wrong?" Daniel lifted the trembling woman from the ground and held her in his arms.
