The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride (Ethan and Janet) novel Chapter 551

After confronting the Turners, Ethan returned to Barnes.

He reported to the police that Charis had pulled some strings to get Jeff out of jail, and had even sent them all the evidence to prove it.

But since there was no evidence tying Charis to all her other crimes, there was nothing Ethan could do.

Because Charis had paid for Jeff's bail, the matter wasn't too serious. It didn't take much effort for the Turner family to get Charis out of this mess.

When everything was settled, Luke spoke to Charis seriously. "Don't go near Barnes again and just stay at home."

He didn't want the company's interests to be affected because of his daughter's selfish acts. Although he loved his daughter very much, he knew what was more important.

Charis's bare, haggard face was pale and tired. She leaned back against the sofa and waved her hand dismissively. "I know. Now that Ethan has figured it all out, I can't do anything anymore."

Ethan could make trouble for the Turner family with a snap of his fingers. Charis knew that she had to be careful.

Luke nodded. "It's good that you've come to your senses. You're a Turner; you shouldn't degrade yourself for a man."

Charis forced a smile but didn't say anything.

There was another, more important reason why she couldn't act rashly. Now that Ethan had found out about her vicious side, if she was caught again, he would definitely destroy not just the Turner family, but her as well.

Seeing her so depressed, Luke stopped scolding her. He thought for a while and said, "Why not come to work for me? It's easy for people to overthink things when they're idly. If you busy yourself with work, you might find a sense of fulfillment. Soon, you'll forget all about this fiasco."

"I didn't want to move here, but Garrett promised he'd give me a raise if I did. He's not lying to me, is he?" Laney felt that it was a hassle to uproot her life in Seacisco.

"Ethan didn't mention anything about that." But Janet was extremely happy that Laney had come to Barnes. "It's so good that you're here now. It almost feels like I'm back in Seacisco where we had so much great time together!"

Her smile was full of joy. Reuniting with a good friend after a long time felt so good. They had a lot to catch up on.

Janet's joy was infectious. Laney's dissatisfaction was instantly dispelled and she excitedly told Janet all about what she had been through in Seacisco after the other woman moved away.

It wasn't until the sun set that Ethan joined them. "Garrett has made us a reservation at this restaurant. You girls can continue to talk over dinner."
