After Being Cheating novel Chapter 235

Walking in the sun, everyone stopped for a moment, and the women put on their shoes and socks back on their feet.

Only Janet had fallen asleep.

Thanks to Daniel, she hadn't slept not even for a full hour last night. After she had hiked on the mountain for a while, she couldn't help but fall asleep on Daniel's back while he was carrying her.

Daniel called Janet, but she didn't reply. He called her again.

Jerry heard him, and after he looked at his sister, he whispered to Daniel, "She's asleep!"

… Daniel was speechless, but went on climbing with her on his back. After the rest of their group had put their shoes and socks back on, he was the only one that was still carrying someone.

Janet woke up when they were halfway up a hill, and she thought that she had missed a lot of the beautiful scenery that was unfolding in front of her eyes. If it hadn't been for some children around them screaming and playing, she would have probably still been asleep for most of the trip.

When the woman on his back moved, Daniel knew that she was awake, and discontentedly looked at the screaming children.

But, in the end, he still didn't say anything, and kept his mouth shut.

Janet whispered in his ear, "Daniel, I'm awake. You can put me down now."

The clothes on her body had almost dried, which indicated that she had slept for quite a while.

Daniel found a nearby bench and put her on it.

She put on her shoes and socks, and said, "Thank you!" She then trotted to keep up with others in front.

Daniel felt unsatisfied with her thanks.

But he still didn't say anything, and just kept it in mind for later.

After a while, Janet's cell phone rang. She took it out of her coat, and when she looked at the caller, she saw that it was Caspar.

She walked a little slower, and while falling behind, she answered the phone. "Caspar."

Daniel, who was in front of her, frowned and also slowed down on his pace too.

"Janet, when are you coming back? Grandpa misses you and the twins, " said Caspar. As soon as Caspar had come out of Dillon's villa, he had called Janet.

Janet hesitated for a while, and said, "I still need some time first. I'm busy with renting shops these days, but I'll come back when I'm done with all of it." In actuality, she didn't want to go back...

Caspar was a little annoyed that she didn't give him a date. "Can I help?" he asked.

"No, I've rented a shop before, I'm experienced!" Janet gasped a little. She forgot about the marks on her neck, and unbuttoned the first couple of buttons of her shirt because of the intense summer heat.

"Where are you now?" Listening to her gasping, Caspar was a little confused.

Janet didn't lie to him, and answered, " We are climbing a mountain for fun."

"Well, then I won't keep you any longer. Enjoy yourself, and come back early!" Caspar had been talking about her coming back, as if Z Country were her home…

Janet forced a smile on her lips, and said. "Okay, Caspar, thank you!"

"You're welcome. By the way, Janet, when you're back, please tell me beforehand of it and I'll send someone to pick you up!"

Janet was just about to say yes, when she heard a cold voice, saying, "You are out of line. Hang up the phone, now!"

Janet looked ahead, and found that she had really distanced herself from all the others.

When Caspar heard Daniel's voice, he too came to a halt. He knew that there was only one person in the world whose voice could be that cold. Thinking that Janet was also with him, he became even more annoyed.

"Caspar, I have to hang up now. I fell behind from my group!" Janet was about to hang up and trotted to catch up with the others.

Caspar smiled bitterly, and said, "Okay, Janet, have fun!"

"Well, see you Caspar!" Janet hung up the phone and put it back in her coat's pocket.

When she walked past Daniel, she didn't say anything.

Instead, Daniel said to her first, "If you are so eager to go back to Z Country, why bother to come back in the first place?"
