The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 379

"It’s a cold day.How would you like to have a cup of coffee with me, Miss Lind?"

Kent stepped on the snow to get to Janet, but then he kept his distance and kept his voice calm and respectful.

Janet could not refuse because he had helped her again just recently, so she pointed to somewhere in the distance and said, "There is a coffeehouse right around the corner.This will be my treat for all the help you rendered the last time."

Kent was rather amused, so he asked, "Do you have to keep things so formal all the time? I wasn’t expecting repayment"

Janet simply stared at him and shrugged her shoulders.She said, "In that case, there’s no need to go and get coffee with you.Can I go home now?"

Turning around, she attempted to leave.

"Can you ignore what I just said? I was joking."

Kent said, obviously flustered by her rejection Janet bit her lips to stifle her laughter as she thought, ‘‘Why does he look so silly? The two of them walked into the coffeehouse. While they were in the coffeehouse, Janet paid more attention to her phone than Kent even though they were sitting opposite each other, so he said, "Hey, I am sitting right here, but you have been checking your phone since we got here.That’s rather rude, you know?"

When she heard that, Janet raised her head and smiled, "I am so sorry I was just checking in with my husband."

The disappointment in Kent’s voice was obvious as he asked, "So you are on good terms?"

"Of course."

Janet’s excitement was obvious in her voice and she didn’t realize she had answered without any hesitation Kent’s eyebrows were raised as he ordered two lattes before handing the menu back to the waiter.

Suddenly he asked Janet, "Who has been helping you all this while? Who’s the person to you?"
