The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet) novel Chapter 170

Janet took a deep breath as her temples began to throb with pain. "Well, it looks like a bunch of fraudsters deceived you. They introduced the products to you and enticed you into signing the documents. Now, they're asking you to repay the debts. The villagers you mentioned might have colluded with them."

These fraud organizations would pick old people who lived alone as their target. Hannah couldn't even understand what the documents meant. Besides, she was old and received only minimal education. She would have been an easy target for them.

Hannah was dumbstruck; she didn't know what to say. It took a long while for her to realize her mistake. She had always been vigilant and never made hasty decisions. Now, she felt like she was being a burden to Janet.

"Leave this to me. Anyway, they can't get any money from me." Hannah sighed and staggered to her feet, clutching the cane for support.

Janet held Hannah's arm and took a deep breath. "What are you saying? How can I leave you alone?"

Tears coursed down Hannah's cheeks. "What should we do now?" she asked anxiously. "I don't have the money to pay them."

"Don't worry. There is always a way," Janet comforted her even though she couldn't think of a solution.

Hannah was her responsibility, and she couldn't let her worry about it.

Looking at the hot pot, Janet gently said, "I know this must be frightening, so you better sit down and rest. I'll cook you a bowl of noodles."
