The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet)
Chapter 1035 Life Assistant Lola

Outside the window, the sky was a clear canvas, and the sun was shining on the stone road of the street, casting a warm glow.

The waiter packaged the cakes Janet had ordered and handed them over to her.

"I think it's about time. Should we head back to the hospital or go shopping for a while first?" Janet took the cakes in her hands and inquired about Laney's opinions.

At that moment, the door of the coffee shop was pushed open from the outside. A young girl in professional attire strode in and made her way to Laney's side. She raised her hands slightly and offered a polite smile to Janet. "Mrs. Larson, let me take the cakes."

Janet studied the girl in front of her. She had a pretty square face with bangs on her forehead.

Noting Janet's alertness, the girl explained with a smile, "Mrs. Larson, I'm not a bad person. My name is Lola. I'm the life assistant hired by Mr. Harding to take care of his daughter-in-law. I didn't want to disturb you when I saw you two chatting happily. So I didn't come in until I saw you two getting ready to leave. I wanted to see if there was anything I could do for you."

It looked like Lola was arranged by Garrett's father.

"Nice to meet you, Lola. I'm Janet. Please look after Laney for me in the future." Janet smiled faintly.

She suddenly remembered the mean Kelly and whispered to Laney, "Is this girl trustworthy?"

Laney nodded with a smile and reassured her, "Lola is a sweet and thoughtful person. She's much better than Kelly. Plus, when Vera caused problems in my house before, Lola was the one who helped me out. Afterward, Lola informed Leo every time she visited, which made Vera think twice before crossing Lola. She's also not someone to mess with."

Laney chuckled at the memory. She had never seen Vera suffer such defeat before.

Lola touched her bangs and blushed bashfully, "I was pretty scared myself at the time. Mrs. Harding, please don't tease me."

Janet struggled to contain her smile, replaceing Lola charming and entertaining.

"I'll leave you two alone now. I'll wait for you outside, Mrs. Harding." Knowing that this was a date between Laney and her best friend, Lola graciously excused herself, taking the desserts with her. As she turned to leave, Janet noticed a coffee stain on the coat on her chest area.

"Lola, here you go." Janet reached into her bag and pulled out a diamond-encrusted iris-shaped brooch, adding before Lola could protest, "You're Laney's personal assistant, and your appearance reflects on hers. Think of this as a little bonus."

Lola was flattered, her eyes sparkling at the sight of the glittering diamonds on the brooch. "Thank you, Mrs. Larson. I'll take it with pride."

Lola caressed the small diamonds on the brooch, which was still warm from Janet's fingers. She found herself staring thoughtfully at Janet, who exuded a serene elegance.

This was the first expensive gift Lola had received while working for Laney.

Lola had to always come up with new ways to deal with Vera on a set monthly salary. Ultimately, she failed to gain any advantages and also ended up offending Vera.

For this, Lola always felt a twinge of resentment.

But seeing Janet's generosity now, Lola couldn't help but think to herself that Laney was not promising at all.

Noticing Lola's prolonged gaze, Janet simply smiled and said, "You can go ahead and wait for us outside." After chatting, Janet and Laney returned to the hospital. There, they met Garrett, who was wearing a brown long windbreaker. He walked up to Laney with a look of concern on his face.

Laney sighed at the sight of him, feeling like she was being smothered with concern. "I'm fine, really. Lola and Janet have been taking good care of me."

Janet chuckled and coughed to get his attention, reminding him of her presence. Embarrassed, Garrett apologized, "Thank you for looking after Laney. Don't forget to come to the baby's birthday party later, both you and Brandon."

"I'll be there. Driver safe on your way home." Janet waved goodbye to the two with a bright smile on her face.
