The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire novel Chapter 500

Janet cocked her head to the side. She didn’t have any deep feelings or emotions for Lila as her parents did. Beal’s words seemed to convey that he had forgiven Lila. Wiping her tears, Lila turned to look at Janet. 

“Janet, are you feeling any better?”

 “What do you think?” Janet snapped coldly.

 “I fell from a height of a thousand meters. God, I will never try skydiving again.” The incident had left an indelible scar on Janet’s heart. She had become afraid of heights now and wouldn’t try any adventure sports that involved flying in the air ever again. This one experience had impacted her for a lifetime. 

Janet looked at Lila’s puffy, bloodshot eyes. There was not even a trace of regret in them. She knew Lila had no regrets, nor did she repent for her mistakes. Lila’s dramatic apology seemed insincere to her. She didn’t mean a word she had said. However, Beal and Johanna felt bad to see their daughter kneel before them and apologize, so they forgave her. Janet couldn’t say anything either. Johanna subconsciously held Janet’s hand, her eyes gleaming with pain and guilt. If she hadn’t been careless, Janet would have been their only precious daughter. She wouldn’t have encountered such problems. 

“I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.” Johanna clamped her mouth guiltily. She couldn’t ask Janet to forgive Lila. As a mother, she believed all this was her fault. Janet pursed her lips and looked at her mother. Tears welled up in her eyes when she saw Johanna cry. She didn’t want to blame Lila again in front of her parents. 

“I was just complaining. Dad, Mom, don’t worry. Lila and I are okay now.” Janet forced a smile. She shot a vicious look at Lila, alerting her not to mess with her again.

*******

Considering Janet didn’t break any bones, she soon got discharged from the hospital. All Lila admitted was that she didn’t tell anyone when she knew the parachute wouldn’t work. 

There was just no evidence to prove that she had tampered with the parachute. Ultimately, the skydiving club became responsible for the incident. The manager of the parachute club felt wronged. But considering the victim was the daughter of the White family and Brandon Larson’s wife, he had no choice but to compensate Janet for the unfortunate incident. After all, he had no evidence to defend himself either.

If she hadn’t been careless, Janet would have been their only precious daughter. She wouldn’t have encountered such problems. 

“I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.” Johanna clamped her mouth guiltily. She couldn’t ask lanet to forgive Lila. As a mother, she believed all this was her fault. Janet pursed her lips and looked at her mother. Tears welled up in her eyes when she saw Johanna cry. She didn’t want to blame Lila again in front of her parents. 

“I was just complaining. Dad, Mom, don’t worry. Lila and I are okay now.” Janet forced a smile.
