After Being Cheating
Chapter 323 My Father Does Not Lack Money

'How can he throw his cards away? He must have gone crazy!' thought Janet.

"Jane, you should understand that all of my money is for my wife and my daughter!" He fondly stared at her. He wanted to give the cards to her three years ago, when they discussed about the wedding. Even then, he had already made up his mind to put her in-charge of the family finances. He also knew that Janet would refuse, but he had a plan to make her agree.

However, she disappeared before he could do anything...

Janet lowered her head and softly murmured, "But I am not your wife..."

"You will be, sooner or later! You are mine!"

His persistence finally made her compromise. Janet took the cards back and put them in her purse, one by one.

Janet pointed at her purse and said, "Happy? Now, I have to go!"

Daniel was speechless.

Watching her dart into the dark, Daniel slowly shook his head, confused. He wondered what on earth did he do to scare her away.

Never mind. Let her be for now.

Daniel instructed his bodyguard to follow her, while he stayed in the living room and sent her a text message, saying, "Jane, from now on, you don't have to bother your parents for money anymore." Jane briskly walked all the way to her villa, as if to escape from Daniel's house.

She then heard a sound from her phone, so she took it out and read the text.

... "I will pay them back anyway!" She was not bluffing. She planned to pay her father for all the expenses he had helped her with.

"Do you think your parents would accept your money?"

Janet slowed her pace and strolled by the road, passing street lamps by. She kept thinking about Daniel's message. Her parents had never touched the money she had left them before she ran away to C Country.

"My father does not lack money!" She quickly typed the message and sent it.

Daniel stared at his phone in silence. Jane was right. Samuel was pretty much well-off.

"I know that, but he saved his money for his grandchild's future, not for you!"

Immediately, he got a reply from her. Janet's message read, "My father's money is enough for both me and his grandchild!"

"Why you have to leech off your parents? Why can't you leech off your husband?"

Daniel was begging for her to live off him. How stubborn could she get!

"That can wait. I can leech off my husband once I get married!" This time, Janet's message came with a smiley emoji.

"But we are already married! You may start leeching on me now."

Janet burst into laughter when she read his last message. Daniel must have really gone crazy.

She replied, "Okay. Fine. I get your point. I will take our daughter shopping tomorrow..."

She also added, "Using your cards!"

Daniel took off his shirt as he smiled at his phone. Janet clearly did not believe him that they had already tied the knot!

He really needed to show her the wedding certificate. It was the only way he could prove it to her.

"My love, I miss you. I'll pick you up." He sat down on the sofa and waited for her reply.

Janet opened the door and found no one inside. The whole villa was pitch black. Everyone was still in the hospital, looking after Sally.

She went inside and changed into her comfortable pajamas and slippers.

When she peeped at her phone, she saw that Daniel wanted to come over and pick her up.

"No need. We both should rest. I will also have a busy day tomorrow. If I have time, I will come and see you in the evening!"

Daniel took a drag from his cigarette. He felt slightly insulted by her message. How come he felt like he was the only one who cared in the relationship? He angrily replied.

Janet was in the bathroom, running a bath for herself. She heard the alert, quickly wiped her hands dry, and tapped on her phone. It read, "But I miss you right now!" She smirked and replied, "You will be fine xoxo..."

They were with each other just a few minutes ago! She hated to admit that she actually missed him, too. His sweet words really warmed her heart.

Daniel smiled at her latest message. His eyes sparkled with joy. He recalled something and dialed a number on his phone, "How soon will the ring be ready?"

"In about half a month?" Daniel raised his eyebrows in frustration and said, "Rush it. I will cover all the cost!"

He was in a hurry to propose to her, but the ring was not ready yet.

The ring design was very intricate. Daniel had only wanted the best for his beloved, so it also took him a long time to obtain a rare metal for the ring.

He ended the call. Just as he was about to send a good night message to Janet, someone called. Daniel stared at the caller's name, as his face darkened. "Speak."

"Boss Si, we found a hidden cave in the middle of Wangfeng Cliff. We went in to explore it, but we were ambushed by some gangsters. Our back-up came to the rescue, but they had already retreated someplace else."

"We found some bones and traces of life. It seemed like these people have been living in the cave for quite some time."

"We haven't figured out where they escaped to, but we are sending professionals over to explore the cave thoroughly." Daniel's eyebrows furrowed. He flicked some of the ashes away from his cigarette and asked, "When did this happen?"

"This afternoon."

He puffed smoke out of his mouth, tapped his index finger on the sofa, and made up his mind, "I will come over tomorrow." "Copy that, Boss Si."

Daniel ended the call. Then, he made another call to add bodyguards for Janet. Tomorrow was going to be a tough day for him. There was no time for any delays. He quickly changed into his pajamas and walked into the study.

He had to finish his work tonight before he took off for Z Country tomorrow.

Janet sat in the bathtub and stared blankly at her phone. Daniel never replied to her last message.

Was he mad at her... because she insisted on going home?

Should she call him to see how he was? Janet was still thinking about Daniel when she stepped out of the bathroom.

It was already past midnight when she blowdried her hair. She wondered if he had already gone to sleep or not.

He was extremely busy during the day, so he must have slept by now! Janet decided to leave him alone.

Little did she know that she would not see him for a few days.

Next morning, Janet woke up early. She took the twins to the mall.

"My dearest babies, your auntie had just given birth to a boy. Now, you both need to pick a gift for him."

"Wow! Mommy, where is the baby boy? I want to see him!" Melissa happily twirled on her feet.

"Me too, Mommy! I want to see the baby boy as well!" Michelle hugged Janet's leg and pleaded.

Janet lovingly smiled at her twins and said, "Don't worry. Let's first choose something nice for the baby, and then let's go see him."

"Great!"

The twins agreed and started looking at the toys in the store.

Melissa chose a light blue cap for the baby.

Michelle chose a cute pair of shoes.

Janet threw some diapers into the trolley. Then, she brought the twins to the cashier.

Before she paid with her own card, she recalled what Daniel had said to her last night. With a big grin on her face, she put away her card and brought out Daniel's instead. 00000
