The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire
Chapter 105: One Of A Kind

Chapter 105: One Of A Kind 

Never had Ethan expected to hear this shocking information today.

As he processed everything, his teeth clenched and his face sunken slightly.

The fact that Janet only married him in exchange for money made him feel annoyed and heartbroken.

But on second thought, he remembered that he also only agreed to the marriage because of hismother’s last wish.

He wasn’t any different from Janet.

Hence, he reasoned it would be unfair to judge her.

Although Ethan put his emotions on a lockdown in order to stay composed, his mind was on arollercoaster.

‘Why did Janet suddenly let the cat out of the bag? Does she want to divorce me? Oh my God, Ithought she had feelings for me!’

"Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?"

Ethan’s jaw rose slightly and his eyes were filled with trepidation.

Janet lowered her long eyelashes and replied calmly, "It’s because the Lind family have refused tokeep their end of the bargain.I have asked them severally to pay me the money as promised, but theyrefused.Today, they even orchestrated for the liver that was donated for Hannah to be given tosomeone else.I had no choice but to open up."

With clear eyes, she looked up at him and continued sincerely, "I’m sorry for deceiving you all along.Ifyou resent me because of this, you can divorce me."

"Divorce?"

Ethan muttered and scoffed.

Getting a divorce was easier said than done.

Besides, he didn’t want that, "Do you think I will be interested in a bitch like Jocelyn?"

Ethan stared at her with an inexplicable glint in his eyes for a while before walking up to her.

He looked into her eyes and said, "Janet, you seem to know very little about me.Just so you know.Nowoman can be compared to you.Besides, don’t you know you are the only woman I want?"

Janet’s cheeks and ears turned red instantly.She fiddled with her fingers and stared at the floor.

Jocelyn, who had been standing on the staircase was livid when she heard Ethan’s last statement.

With her face burning with fury, she shouted angrily, "Why? How dare you say that? What makes thisbitch better than me? Ethan, I used to think you were a man with good taste, but I was wrong.You areblind and stupid!"

Only a few moments ago, Jocelyn had thought that Ethan would divorce Janet and ask for her hand inmarriage.

She wasn’t going to accept his proposal, but she just wanted to hurt Janet and reiterate that she wasbetter than her in all ramifications.

Ethan paid no heed to the woman who was shouting at him.

He shot Bernie and Fiona a cold glare and uttered, "Why bother? The substitute marriage waspointless.You should have just told me from the onset that you switched your daughters.I never had aninterest in Jocelyn in the first place.She has a bad reputation, an ugly face, and a terrible character.No

man in his right mind would want to have anything to do with her, let alone marry her.Janet is tenthousand times better than her."

Bernie and Fiona had been afraid that Ethan would flare up at them once he found out that his bridehad been substituted.

Much to their surprise, he was actually happy with the arrangement because he harbored inveteratehatred for Jocelyn.

This annoyed them to the bones.Several wrinkles appeared at the corners of Fiona’s eyes as shesneered.

In a mean tone, she retorted, "Watch your mouth, Ethan.

Don’t be so arrogant because you are just the illegitimate son of the Lester family.

As far as I’m concerned, you are nothing but an unpresentable bastard.

How dare you speak ill of my daughter in my presence?"

"Spare me that bull crap! I see where Jocelyn gets all her bad attributes from.She’s your carboncopy.The three of you are a family of vile humans!"

Ethan sneered at them.

Afterward, he turned to look at Janet who was still lowering her head timidly.

He lifted her head and said affectionately, "You are one of a kind.How did you manage to put up withthem for so long?"

Despite Ethan’s shunning words, Fiona still stood up for her daughter.

"You bastard, you must apologize to my daughter, or you won’t be able to leave here today!"

"Humph! Fine, I’ll apologize!"

A murderous expression appeared on Ethan’s face at this moment.He suddenly picked up a winebottle, holding it by its neck.He then smashed it on the table.

The red wine spilled on the floor and dyed the carpet.

The remaining half of the bottle in his hand now had extremely sharp tips.

"No! Mom! He wants to stab us.Don’t let him get here!"

Jocelyn was so scared that her face turned pale.

As quick as a flash, she ran into her room and slammed the door shut.

Fear also filled Fiona as she stared at the bottle and the murderous look on Ethan’s face.

She staggered backward as her heart began to pound against her chest.

‘Oh my God! Janet and Ethan are both crazy!’. Ethan took two steps forward.

His black eyes were void of any emotions.

It was as if they led to a bottomless abyss.

"Please calm down, Ethan.Fiona, stop arguing with him.You should know that we are to blame forthis.We promised the Lester family to give out Jocelyn’s hand in marriage to their son many yearsago.But we didn’t keep to our promise.He has every right to be angry now!"

Bernie scolded his wife in a bid to show that he was reasonable and wanted peace.

He was only trying to save their lives.

Being an illegitimate child didn’t change the fact that Ethan still had a powerful family behind him.

The Lesters were so powerful that a scandal would never erupt about them.

Even if Ethan killed them all tonight, the truth would be buried easily by the Lesters and no one wouldknow what happened forever.

Seeing that Bernie was being fairly reasonable, Ethan threw the broken bottle aside and casually wipedhis fingers with tissue.

He glanced at the scared couple and said, "I can let go of you for deceiving me.You unknowingly didme a favor.I’m glad that Janet became my wife.However, you owe her money, so you must pay her."

He threw the tissue on the floor, held Janet’s hand, and left.
