The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet) novel Chapter 647

Johanna pursed her lips in utter dissatisfaction. "What's the matter with you, Brandon? Your wife is back! Aren't you happy to hear that?"

Brandon paused for a few seconds and then said calmly, "Of course I'm happy."

Johanna couldn't feel any semblance of joy in his tone. He was totally indifferent!

His tone made Johanna fly into a fit of rage.

However, Beal tugged on Johanna's wrist and said in a low voice, "Something's not right. Brandon isn't like this usually. Could something have happened to him?"

Johanna suppressed her anger and tried to calm down to think straight.

Brandon's reaction was indeed suspicious. He didn't seem to give a damn about his own wife now.

Johanna's eyes flashed in confusion. She whispered to Beal, "I don't know what's wrong with him, but perhaps his illness had an effect on his personality?"

"Hello? If there's anything else you want to say, please say it now."

After waiting for a while, Brandon grew a little impatient—and it showed.

He had no feelings for his wife, nor did he have any respect for the Whites. He had only talked to them in the first place out of politeness.

How did he get along with them before? What response were his in-laws expecting from him?

After mulling over it for a while, he asked, "Where is she now?"

Johanna coughed and said gruffly, "Janet is in the hospital of a fishing village near Seacisco. If you want to come over now, I can send you the location."

"Okay. Send me the location. I'll visit her when I have time. I have a meeting to attend. I'd better go now."

Then, without even waiting for a response from Johanna, he hung up the phone abruptly.

"Didn't I tell you to get some rest first? Why are you still awake?" Johanna asked helplessly, tucking Janet under the blanket.

Janet looked straight into her mother's eyes and asked, "Mom, what did Brandon say?"

The smile on Johanna's face instantly became a little weird. "Brandon said he'd come soon. In the meantime, he has asked us to take good care of you."

Janet frowned slightly. "Then let me call him. I want to talk to him. I'm still very worried about his health. And why did he change his phone number all of a sudden?"

Johanna hurriedly joked, "My, my, I've never met anyone who misses her husband as much as you! Brandon just told us that there's something wrong with the company in Barnes and he was in between meetings when we called. As for the change of number, his phone fell into the sea when he was searching for you. Anyway, he's very busy right now. Let's stop pestering him for now, okay?"

Johanna tried to distract Janet.

Hearing her mother's explanation, Janet gradually calmed down. Maybe it was because she missed Brandon so much after her neardeath experience that she couldn't help making blind and disorderly conjectures. They had only been apart for a week. What could've possibly gone wrong?
