After Being Cheating novel Chapter 290

Selina roared, "Mom! Do you really think your daughter is that ugly?"

All of them burst into laughter. In reality, Selina was not ugly. She actually had inherited Eason Bo's good genes and looked pretty.

She was still a young, cute girl; she has yet to blossom into a refined, beautiful lady.

Janet chose more sets of night dresses for Selina. Then, she went on to do her own makeup.

Before she started applying her foundation, Janet took out her phone. Her WeChat app kept making sounds. She clicked on it, and saw that there were more than 99 messages in their WeChat Group.

She scrolled through the messages to find out what the fuss was about and saw Selina's photos of her.

Her face flushed red, especially when she saw Daniel's comment about it. It wrote, "That's my beautiful girl!"

The other people cheered and echoed his message. Some of them congratulated Daniel for snagging a beautiful woman, while some were asking for a wedding date.

Upon reading the messages, Janet's face turned hot and bright red. She immediately closed the phone and was about to put it aside, but the phone suddenly rang.

It was Daniel.

After she clearing her throat, she answered, "Hello, Mr. Si."

"Why are you dressed in such a beautiful dress while I can't see you?" She heard a disappointed man on the other side of the line.

'Was this supposed to be a compliment?' thought Janet.

She then mumbled in a low voice, "Well, you're on a business trip. It's not my fault."

Daniel got out of his car and chuckled, "Whose party are you going to attend?"

"I will be attending a birthday party of some lady. Mother* is taking me there, " replied Janet. But she forgot the lady's name.

After hearing her words, Daniel kept silent for a few seconds. He was trying to guess whose party she would be attending.

Then, he said, "If you don't have to stay long in the party, come back home earlier." Daniel said 'come back home', but not 'go back home'. But Janet didn't notice the subtle difference of the phrase he used. Instead, she focused on why she should leave the party earlier.

Looking at Mansion No. 9, Daniel explained, "We have to be cautious of Hobson, just in case he is plotting something bad in C Country."

Hobson had only been in jail for a couple of days, but he was bailed out by someone. Since then, he hadn't showed up and taken his revenge.

Daniel knew that Hobson hadn't given up yet; he was only waiting for the right opportunity to strike back.

"Well, okay... When are you coming back?" She asked him.

She seemed to have... missed him so much.

"What? You already miss me?" Leaning against his car, he asked calmly.

Janet's face flushed red, so she threw back the question and asked, "How about you? Do you miss me already?"

"Jane, please don't answer me with the same question every time I ask you if you love me or if you miss me. Okay?" He said softly.

Janet knew he wasn't upset, but she still went on saving her own face and said, "You haven't answered my question, either.

Don't act so indifferent. I know you're dying to be with me right now."

The makeup artist was painting some powder on Janet's face, so she didn't hear Daniel's response because she had to move away her phone.

She then asked him to repeat his answer, but Daniel kept silent for a short moment and said, "I didn't say anything."

"Yes, you did! I'm having my makeup done, so I moved away my phone just now. I didn't hear what you said, so say it again!" She vaguely heard the word 'missed', but Janet wanted to be sure.

Daniel sighed in his mind and said in a low voice, "Jane, I have missed you."

If he hadn't had missed her so much, he wouldn't have been working day and night abroad to finish his work and come back as soon as possible.
