The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet)
Chapter 701 Charis's True Colors

Brandon didn't understand.

How much did Charis hate Janet? And why did she hate her? Charis loathed Janet so much that she was willing to kill herself in the process of getting rid of the latter.

Frowning deeply, he tried to think about how the two had treated each other. To his memory, they rarely even talked to each other. Whatever happened to make Charis hate Janet so much? Why was this happening?

Could he have just forgotten something important due to his memory loss?

"You didn't have a grudge against each other before. Why do you want to kill Janet all of a sudden?" he asked carefully.

With a sneer, Charis looked at Janet ferociously. "We've always hated each other, Brandon, but you've forgotten all about it. Well then, let me refresh your memory."

Charis then told him everything.

Previously, Brandon had grown obsessed with Janet, which made Charis extremely jealous. After all, she had met him first and she deserved him, not Janet. Later, she tried everything to separate the two, but kept failing.

In the end, she set the fire in the haunted house to kill Janet, but her plans backfired and she ended up disfiguring her own self.

The more he heard, the bigger Brandon's shock.

He racked his brains trying to recall the things Charis had said, but a throbbing pain in his head kept interrupting him.

Pressing his hands against his throbbing temples, he looked at Janet and asked helplessly, "Is she telling the truth? Why didn't you tell me all of this sooner?"

Lying on the ground awkwardly, Janet squeezed her eyes shut and explained, "It's true. I wanted to tell you, but I couldn't replace any evidence to prove it. Charis managed to cover her tracks, even the arson. You didn't remember our past and then even trusted her with your life, so I couldn't dare to act rashly."

"Should I thank you for not telling Brandon?" Charis sneered sarcastically. "I fucking hate you, you bitch! Even after Brandon lost his memory, he still chose you. You must be so proud, aren't you?"

As she spoke, Charis yanked Janet's hair, forcing her to raise her head to look at her.

Janet looked into her eyes and shuddered. At this moment, Charis showed her true colors.

She shed her gentle disguise and became the monster she really was underneath her burnt skin.

"Let go of me, you lunatic!" Janet screamed in pain.

"What can I do to make you let her go?" Brandon asked coldly, locking eyes with Charis.

How could he have trusted such a vicious person?

He stole a glance at his phone, which was hidden behind the document. He could see that Garrett had answered the phone, but he hadn't made a sound. Perhaps Garrett had figured out what was going on and was racking his brains for a solution.

The only thing Brandon could do at the moment was to keep on buying as much time as possible. "Wake up, Brandon! Do you see what's in front of you? I'm not going to let this bitch live to see another day! She's the reason why I ended up like this. I'm going to kill her!" Charis roared at the top of her lungs, her disfigured face contorting in anger.

Brandon gritted his teeth, clinging onto a thin sliver of hope.

Charis kept saying that she'd kill Janet, but she hadn't taken action yet. She could've been bluffing.

After all, the Charis he knew wouldn't give up her life so easily.

He took a deep breath and tried reasoning with her. "Charis, you have to calm down first. We can talk this through. You have your parents, and they love you very much. You're already luckier than most people don't you know that?"
