Chapter 932

The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 932 Give Me Back The Medicine

Awkwardness surrounded the two. Janet didn’t know what to say.

Elizabeth asked, “Did Frank ask you to do it?”

Apart from her aunt, only Frank knew that she had taken the painkillers. Unfortunately, Janet didn’thave her aunt’s phone number.

Janet tried to explain helplessly. “Frank was also worried about you. That’s why he asked me for help.”

Elizabeth gritted her teeth. The pain seemed to increase every second but she endured it. “What didFrank ask you to do?”

Janet had no choice but to tell her the truth. “Frank asked me to secretly change the painkillers youusually take to vitamins.”

A frown formed on Elizabeth’s face. “But he confiscated my medicine once.”

“He thought there must be some spare painkillers in your office. He asked me to clean them up.” Janetthreaded cautiously. “I heard from Frank that taking too many painkillers is bad for your health.”

Janet was a bit hesitant at first but thinking about Elizabeth’s health convinced her to do as she wastold.

Elizabeth recalled Frank’s previous warning and felt that she was in the wrong. But considering that itwas her own b*ody, should Frank really be meddling with her business?

“Give me back the pills.” Elizabeth raised her hand, her gaze cold on Janet.

Janet shook her head. It was obvious that Elizabeth was unwell, so Janet advised instead, “Let’s go toreplace Frank so he can treat you. I will never give you back the pills!” Elizabeth stood up to take themedicine from Janet.

The pain in her palm was so intense it felt as though it was spreading. She could feel her entire armhurt. So much so that her eyes almost pop out. “Give it to me!”

Elizabeth didn’t want to be treated like a patient. Her pride wouldn’t let that happen. She hated seeingothers look at her with pity, especially Janet. She didn’t want her colleagues to know that she was in adifficult position, either.

“What’s wrong?” The other designers of W Marks heard the noise and came over to check what washappening. Color drained out of Elizabeth’s face.

Janet waved her hand, “Nothing serious. You can go back to work.”

Elizabeth said nothing and only lowered her head. She knew she already lost control over the situation,so she took the design draft to the meeting room where she could hide.

Janet didn’t stop her. Elizabeth needed some time to calm down.

It was not until Janet got off work that she knocked on the meeting room door.

“Does your hand still hurt?” Janet had a cup of chocolate in her hands. She brought it to bribeElizabeth. “It’s sweet. Drink it to ease the pain.”

Elizabeth still wore a cold face. “It was way painful earlier but that had already passed. I’m much betternow.”

“Are you blaming me?” Janet asked, a bit confused.

Elizabeth put her head in her hands. Her eyes were tired and her voice was helpless. “I don’t blameanyone. When I calmed down, it was only me I resented. Jorge is a disaster caused by my ignorance ofpeople. This is karma. My life is over, Janet.”

Janet could feel herself shudder. She looked down at Elizabeth’s red eyes and took in the fading hopein them. “No, it won’t. Let’s go to replace Frank. He’s off duty now. He’s waiting for us outside.” Janetsniffed and smiled, “There’s always a way, Elizabeth. Even if it’s slim, there is still hope. Mostimportantly, you can’t give up on yourself!”

Tears streamed down Janet’s cheeks as she tried to convince Elizabeth.

Frank had been constantly checking the time, waiting for Janet and Elizabeth to come out. But none ofthem made their appearance yet. Just as he was about to rush in and look for them, he caught aglimpse of the two, walking out side by side. Both Janet and Elizabeth had strange looks on their faces.
