After Being Cheating novel Chapter 386

'Besides, I'll ask him to tell me what happened during this period in more detail.'

Janet retweeted the news from the reporter, with the captions, "Infatuation? Acting? You're wrong, and I can confidently tell you that we are in love!"

She then logged out of Weibo. 'I only hope that Daniel will not embarrass me later, ' she thought.

When she arrived home, she opened her Weibo again, and found out that her post had been overwhelmed with comments.

The top comment had come from a Weibo user called Bilbo. It read, "Mrs. Si, I had followed you since before you married Mr. Si. It was four years ago that you were first shown on camera, and at that time, fear and confusion could've been easily found in your eyes. But now, you are confident in yourself, and stronger. I don't think that you're lying. Best wishes to you and Mr. Si!"

The second comment was from a Weibo user who was called Doug. It read, "Mrs. Si is bossy! Formidable! I have faith in your love."

The third was from Greg, and it said, "You can tell how strong Mr. Si's love is to Mrs. Si from their wedding ceremony. What the hell are those impolite paparazzi talking about?"

...

Almost all the popular comments were on Janet's side.

Of course, some critic also existed. For example, a comment read, "Daniel is an unfaithful husband. It's lame of him to indulge in dissipation without going home when his wife is pregnant..."

Before Janet had stood up for Daniel, his female fans had already posted their comments and attacked those who started to speak ill of Daniel.

Later, Sally also posted on Weibo, "Nobody can judge the pure and unshaken love between my brother and my sister-in-law." 'Their privacy shouldn't be exposed to the public like that. The reporters are the only ones to blame, ' thought Sally to herself.

Although Sally had not been the first one to comment, her comment had been pushed to the first five trending, because she was Daniel's sister.

Her comment was replied to by thousands of people. For example, a Weibo user called RoyBatty replied to her, "Support Mr. Si' sister! If reporters have the time to gossip, they should give more reports on those who are in need."

A Weibo user called Regis replied, "We witnessed their love at their unparalleled wedding ceremony on TV. These are just petty tricks coming from the reporters."

Another user called Candy12, replied, "Although I believe what Mrs. Si said, I hope that Mr. Si can avoid in the future to be photographed on those special occasions."

...

Janet spent the whole afternoon reading comments and private messages, and she still had many unread messages.

She thought to herself, 'I have to admit, the internet is really powerful.'

Nicole called her, and said, "Jane, what's going on? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Nicole. Don't you worry about me, " replied Janet. Lola had come in and comforted her for a moment when she was reading the comments.

Nicole, who was in Daniel's favor, said, "Jane, Daniel is not that kind of man as they said. You should believe in him. Besides, you're pregnant now, and getting angry is not good for the baby."

"I know, Nicole. When are you due to give birth?" asked Janet. She knew what she had to do, and she decided to hear Daniel's explanation when he came back.

Nicole touched her colossal belly, and with a slight smile on her face, said, "In a week."

"Both of us should take good care of ourselves, " said Janet. She decided to keep herself in a good mood, at least for the baby's sake.

"We will, " replied Nicole.

After she hung up, Janet received a call from Ivanka. Brian had told her that Daniel couldn't contact Janet because at the moment he was in a place where he had no phone signal, and because his location could be traced.

Janet had no idea that Brian had been staying with Daniel all along.

Ivanka also told her that Daniel felt guilty about his absence during her pregnancy, and that he would explain all to her after he came back.

'Didn't Daniel go on a business trip? Why is he afraid his location would be traced?' wondered Janet.

She started to feel concerned about the whole deal. After musing for a while, she called Harry, and asked him, "Dad, what on earth is Daniel doing in America?"

After pausing for a moment, Harry said, "Jane, don't think about it too much. He has his reasons for keeping you in the dark."

"I'm not thinking about it too much. When he left, he told me that he was going on a business trip, but why is he now with Brian? And also afraid of someone finding out his current whereabouts?" she asked. 'I'm already aware that Bill decided to enter the business circles, but I never heard of Brian having such intentions, ' thought Janet to herself.

Harry didn't want to lie to her, and instead said, "I don't know all the details. Perhaps the partner is afraid that he'll leak some confidential commercial information. Who knows?"

"Well, okay, I understand. Maybe you're right. Thank you, dad!" said Janet. She thought that his explanation sounded reasonable.

"Just let the chef know if you want to have anything special to eat for dinner. Don't think about it too much, Daniel can handle any trouble. Just trust him, okay?" said Harry.

"I will, dad. Bye!"

"Bye."

After she hung up, Janet felt drowsy, and because she had played on her phone the whole afternoon, she decided to take a nap.

Janet didn't wake up only until Lola knocked on her door to ask her to have dinner downstairs in the evening.

In a secret base in Z Country

Daniel was sitting on a chair. Brian brought him a glass of water, and said, "They've discovered us."

"Yeah, damn reporters!" said Daniel furiously. Daniel impatiently scratched his head, and drank the water.

He resisted the impulse to contact Janet for many times, because he was afraid that her voice would shake his determination.

This time, he had seen her on a screen, and his mind had been suddenly distracted. He was suddenly longing to go back to C Country.

Brian patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Alex Gong is a cunning fellow. Take it easy now."

'Take it easy? How could I take it easy? Jane is pregnant, and I'm not there for her, ' thought Daniel to himself.

At that moment, Daniel became extremely upset.

Daniel stood up from his chair, and went outside, and said, "I have to go back to C Country."

Brian immediately stopped him, and said, "If you go back now, Alex will find a chance to take his revenge on you once he finds out all about it."

Once he found out that Daniel was in Z Country with his people, Alex wouldn't just stand by and wait for his death to come.

If Daniel left Z Country, he would be giving Alex the best opportunity to retaliate.

They had now alerted the enemy, because Daniel had been exposed by the reporters.

Daniel clenched his fists and the muscles on his arms tensed, exposing his vigorous veins. 'Alex, I'm gonna make you pay for all you've done!' thought Daniel.

He then sat back on the sofa, and restored calm.

A young man with yellow hair came to them. His name was Steve Yi, one of the main forces behind the operation to bring down Alex.

"Perhaps we can go to the Tianye Men, and visit Dillon Qiao, " he said.

He was holding a piece of paper in his hand, with the conflicts between Dillon and Alex written on it. After reading it, Daniel understood why Alex had sent Janet to kill Dillon and Caspar.

In fact, Alex's real family name was Qiao, and he was Dillon's cousin. He had eventually been abandoned by the Qiao family, losing the right to take over the Tianye Men.

They had turned against each other because of other subsequent causes. For a long time, Alex had made great efforts to kill Dillon, and to finally find his place in the Tianye Men.
