The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet) novel Chapter 1349

"Shut up," Brandon snapped, rubbing his temples wearily. With a stern gaze, he warned Frank in a cold tone, "Just get it done quickly. I don't want Janet to find out about it."

Upon hearing this, Frank's expression turned to one of embarrassment. "As you know, I'm not an obstetrician, so I don't know much about conception. How about I introduce you to a few experts I know?" A dark look immediately appeared on Brandon's face as he quickly dismissed the suggestion. "No." "Why not?" Frank asked, with a puzzled frown.

A glint of coldness flickered in Brandon's eyes as he replied in a chilling tone, "I've already told you that we can't let Janet or the White family find out about it. If you go against this instruction, be prepared to face the consequences."

Sensing Brandon's unwavering determination and ferocity, Frank let out a sigh of resignation. "Understood. I'll keep it a secret, but I must admit that it'll be difficult to find a solution."

It turned out that when Brandon took Janet to the hospital for a pregnancy check-up, he had already secretly told Frank that if there were something wrong with either of them that would affect Janet's pregnancy, Frank was not to tell Janet, but rather, inform him first.

Initially, he had made those preparations as a precautionary measure, not expecting the worstcase scenario to actually unfold.

The results of the exam came out a week ago. With a grave expression, Frank delivered the news, "Unfortunately, there is a physical condition that

prevents Janet from conceiving."

Seeing the solemn expression on Frank's face, Brandon, who had always been able to maintain his composure, couldn't hide his concern. "Whose physical condition is it? Janet's or mine?"

"It's Janet," Frank replied hesitantly, his lips pressed together.

Immediately, Brandon leaned back on the sofa and took a deep breath, processing what he had just heard. Then, in a serious tone, he asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Frank handed the report to Brandon, pointing to the technical terms on it and explaining them to him, "According to the test results, the chances of Janet getting pregnant is only 1 in 10000, due to an abnormality in her uterus. In addition to that, this condition makes it impossible for her to even have a test-tube baby."

Brandon's heart trembled violently. He stared at the report filled with strange technical terms in disbelief, feeling as though he were living in a nightmare. "How can this be? Is it that bad?"

Frank replied, "It's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the condition. It could be a congenital disease or a developmental disorder that occurred later in life. It's extremely complicated, and as someone who's not an obstetrician, I won't be able to provide a clear explanation on it for a while."

Brandon clenched his fists, bearing a cold look in his eyes.

However, his intentional avoidance of their encounters became quite obvious. His sudden lack of attention towards Janet and the busy discussions with Frank only served to make his behavior even more suspicious. It was a far cry from the way they used to get along with each other.

In Janet's eyes, the sudden change in his behavior

was the result of a cooling of their once-passionate relationship. Brandon had even gone a whole day without contacting her for no apparent reason. Any other person would've felt disheartened and suspicious about such a drastic change.

If it weren't for the fact that Janet trusted Brandon's morals and was confident in their relationship, she might have resorted to hiring a private detective to investigate his alleged affairs.

Despite the unintended consequences of his actions, Brandon felt it was necessary to protect Janet from the truth. He couldn't bear the thought of her blaming herself for their inability to conceive a child. In his mind, shielding her from this devastating revelation was the best alternative, even if it meant enduring her suspicion.

Right now, he was in no less pain and distress than Janet.

At the same time, Frank also noticed that Brandon was dealing with a dilemma. Despite his desire to help, he couldn't do much besides let out a heavy sigh in solidarity.
