After Being Cheating novel Chapter 156

"What you heard!" said Daniel. He patted the dust shoe print off his trousers, and then returned Sven a heavy kick, which made Sven feel painful and grit his teeth.

"Daniel! I'll be your brother-in-law very soon! But you still dare to treat me like this!" yelled Sven.

While he was falling into deep thought, Daniel blew out a cloud of smoke.

He initially wanted to find out Brian's address, and go and retrieve Janet himself. But this would have made things worse, because she was stubborn.

Daniel had thought it would be better to let her father know about the matter at hand and let him deal with it.

Sven saw that Daniel was silent, and he couldn't help himself to say something more. He said, "You should have been well aware of Janet's character from the start. She's just angry and acting rashly, and you just need to be more patient with her."

Daniel squinted at him, and flicked his cigarette's ash. He then said, "Call father* again later. If Janet's still not home, I'm going to bring her back myself!"

While he spoke, he went to his desk and pressed the internal company line and called Spark, and instructed him to find Brian's address.

Hearing Daniel, Sven raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Do you want to make Jane hate me as well?"

'It was me who called her father and told him about the recent event! Jane will surely hate me!' thought Sven.

"No, she won't." Daniel spoke in a confident tone to assure Sven that everything's going to be alright.

At the Southern Garden Apartment Complex, Building No. 2

After Janet had finished drying her long hair, she opened the bathroom's door. She first stuck her head out of the door to see if there was anyone in the bedroom. When she saw that no one was there, she came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel.

There was a white shirt on the bed, and Janet quickly wiped the water drops off her body, and put on the white shirt.

It wasn't that bad a fit. The shirt's length at least covered her thighs.

Her phone inside her handbag rang again. Janet got out her phone and found that there were a dozen missed calls from her father. She wondered what had happened to her family.

"Hello, dad!"

After Samuel had called his daughter for a dozen times or more, the phone was finally connected. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and said, "Janet! Where are you now?"

"Um... I'm at... But what happened? Dad?" stammered Janet. After a second thought, Janet thought that it might be better not to tell Samuel the truth. In case that Samuel might misunderstand her actual relationship with Brian.

Samuel tried to calm down, and asked, "What's wrong between you and Daniel? Are you breaking up with him? What the hell are you doing?"

...

Janet resentfully stared at Brian's photo on the wall. She then thought that Brian had nothing to do with this, and she moved away her eyes, and yelled over the phone, "Daniel Si, you mean man! Why did you tell on my father!"

Speechless, Samuel closed his eyes, and patiently told his daughter, "It wasn't Daniel who told me about this. Now, tell me, are you staying together with Brian?"

'Since you already know that I'm staying at Brian's place, if it's not Daniel who told you, then who else could it be? Oh! No, maybe the bodyguards who followed me told him!' thought Janet.

"Yes, but I'm coming back very soon. Isn't it pouring outside?" answered Janet.

"OK, but Janet, please remember, don't do any stupid things!" tried Samuel stressing out.. He agreed that his daughter could come back home later, when the rain stopped.

'Stupid things?' wondered Janet. Janet felt distressed, and asked, "Father, am I that kind of woman in your eyes?"

Samuel of course trusted his daughter, but he again asked her to come back home as soon as possible. He then hung up.

Janet put her phone back inside her handbag. Brian hadn't returned yet, and she was wearing only one shirt, and felt a little bit cold.

She saw the bed with the quilt over it, and laid on it under the quilt straightaway.

She kept rolling her eyeballs, and still wondered if Brian was living there all by himself.

After a couple of random thoughts, Janet dozed off.

A long while later, Brian came back home and knocked at the bedroom's door, but Janet was sound asleep and didn't wake up.

Brian became anxious when no one answered, and said, "Janet, if you're not opening the door, I'll come in!" 'Could it be possible that this silly girl has done something to hurt herself because her breaking up with Daniel?' thought Brian.
