The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 1026 Looking For Clues

Janet turned her head toward the door as she heard someone coming in. She greeted, “Good morning,Sean. Do you want some breakfast? I have some sandwiches here.”

She made all the food to give Brendon a choice of what he preferred for breakfast, but he didn’t eatmuch as he had no appetite, and so she now had a lot of leftovers.

1 “Are they Mr. Larson’s leftovers? No thanks, I don’t want it,” Sean replied apologetically. Suddenly, hegave Janet a weird look and said in a strange tone, “Mrs. Larson, did Mr. Larson update you on thesituation?”

“No, my family said that the dash cam is currently being repaired in the Larson Group’s technologydepartment. I just came to check in on the situation,” Janet explained. She felt that something wasamiss from Sean’s tone and gave him a curious glance. “Did you quarrel with Brendon? Anyway, hedidn’t even touch these sandwiches, so they are not really leftovers,” she added.

Sean looked unhappy but he still politely replied, “I didn’t quarrel with Mr. Larson.”

He was just a little sad that a half-year bonus was deducted from his salary.

Just then, a colleague from the technology department appeared and greeted the two, “Hello, Mrs.Larson and Sean. This way, please.”

Sean and Janet followed the colleague into the office, and they reviewed the footage captured by therepaired dash cam.

From the footage, they confirmed that someone had indeed tampered with the brakes in Sean’s car.The culprit had a clear goal and acted really quickly. He was carrying a backpack filled with tools andwas also very cautious as he wore a mask and black hat to hide his identity. The only obvious featurein the footage was his eyes.

“It seems that this guy had the intention to harm you, Mrs. Larson,” Sean said in a serious tone. Hisbreath quickened, and his expression suddenly became stiff. He crossed his arms across his chest andthought aloud, “The only clue we have is this pair of eyes. But many people in Barnes have singleeyelids. It’s going to be hard trying to locate him.”

“You are right. Maybe, we can replace out something from his clothes instead,” Janet said while deep inthought. After careful observation, she pointed at the screen and said, “Look at his hat. It looks new. Hemust have bought it recently. It looks like a famous brand too. Although this brand has many shops inBarnes, at least we have a lead now right?”

Sean smiled and agreed, “It should be doable. The Larson Group can offer a high reward for usefulleads. This way, we don’t need to act solely on our own. We can probably catch the culprit sooner withmore people helping out.”

Janet nodded and said, “This is the phone number of the

person in charge of the investigation from the White family. If you need anything, you can contact him.I’m sure he can provide you with some clues too. You can also share information with each other.” Shethen copied the footage into her thumb drive and continued, “I’ll go back and watch it again carefullyafter work. I might have missed out on some details when we were watching it just now.”

Sean agreed without hesitation, “Of course, everything here belongs to Mr. Larson. Please, takeanything you need with you.”

Before leaving, Janet patted Sean’s shoulder and comforted him, “I’ll be going now. I’m sorry aboutyour bonus being deducted.” She then held out the bag containing the sandwiches she made andasked, “Since your bonus is deducted, you should learn to be more economical. Are you sure you don’twant the sandwiches?”

Sean patted his empty wallet in his pocket and sighed sadly, “Sure, I’ll take it. Thank you.”

It was already noon when Janet returned to the W Marks Studio. She had already applied for leavefrom Draco, and now, she was packing up the documents she needed, before bringing them to thehospital to work.

Just as Janet returned to the studio, Tasha and Elizabeth spotted her.

They hurried over and asked in unison, “What happened? Why did you apply for leave?”

Janet was surprised by the incredible sync between Tasha and Elizabeth. 

“I have something to deal with at home, so I applied for two days off,” she replied tiredly. Lookingaround carefully, she made sure that there was no one eavesdropping before whispering, “Brandonhad a car accident. I need to look after him in the hospital these few days.”

It then dawned on Elizabeth, “Oh, I see. No wonder you looked absent-minded when you came in.”

After observing Janet for a while, Tasha asked sympathetically, “Elizabeth and I thought now that thedress you designed for Estella was a great success, you should be happy about it. But you looked soupset! Turns out it was Brandon. Do you need our help in any way?”

Janet gently shook her head and replied confidently, “I am almost done in handling that matter. Andnow we’re going to focus on catching the murderer on the loose. I hope to catch him as soon aspossible.”

Tasha was shocked by Janet’s words. A few seconds later, she finally snapped out of it and said inastonishment, “Didn’t you just attend a award ceremony with Estella? Why is there a murderer?”
