Chapter 50
Janet smiled and gave 1 ita an Apquiving tank âYouâre absolutely right!
ã
Aherward, Janet smiled mockingly. If Betrecea dares to show up, sheâll only be humiliating herself
Liss breathed a sigh of retiet and finally felt less tense.
Ammediately shey, Janet spoke seriously. âBut we have to get new clothes for the Glamour Closet endorsement. dance frebecca bought the top quality ones, I canât be seen wearing anything lessâ
Liss was troubled after hearing her. âBut the best outfits from Glamour Closet cost over 360 thousand dollarsâ¦â
Janet frowned at this, but only for a moment. She gritted her teeth and said, âItâs just over 360 thousand dollars. If Rebecca can afford it, why canât I?â
âDonât worry about the clothes. Just make sure my schedule is in order. Iâll handle the rest,â she added.
Lisa quickly nodded âOkayâ
Once she left, Janet stood up in anger. Over 360 thousand dollars wasnât much to her, but choosing to spend it on clothes she liked was one thing. Being forced to spend that much just because Rebecca had bought the best clothes was another, and it made Janetâs face twisted with anger.
Janet thought irritably, Rebecca is just a parasite who has been living off my family. Where did she get the money to buy those clothes without my permission? How much did she spend to buy all the latest designs from Glamour Closet? It must be Theodoreâs money!
As soon as Janet thought about Rebecca spending Theodoreâs money so recklessly, she couldnât suppress her anger and became wildly jealous.
Janet pondered, âAll of this should have been mine. If Rebecca hadnât married Theodore in my place three years ago, I would be his wife now I am supposed to be Theodoreâs real wife
With this thought, she looked at the child being cared for by the nanny nearby.
Janet then thought, I must win Theodoreâs heart quickly. Once he loves me, getting him to divorce Rebecca and marry me will be easy!
With this in mind, she then walked toward the nanny and the baby.
The nanny became a bit nervous when she saw Janet approaching.
Janet immediately ordered, âGive nie the babyâ

Chapter 50
The nanny quickly but carefully handed the baby to Janet upon hearing her.
The baby, not even two months old, was tiny and adorable. As Janet looked at the child, her stern expression
softened into a gentle smile.
She reflected, âThis is my and Theodoreâs baby. We already have a child. This baby is my key to marrying
Theodorel
Thinking this, Janet carried the baby back to the room. She placed the child on the bed and then pinched the babyâs leg, causing the baby to cry out in pain.
Afterward, she took out her phone, clicked open her contacts, found Theodoreâs number, and dialed it.
Meanwhile, Theodore, who was in a meeting in the topâfloor conference room of the Edwards Group, suddenly
heard his phone ring.
The sudden ring startled everyone, and they all looked at the CEOâs phone.
Theodore also looked at his phone. When he saw that the caller was Janet, he frowned and raised his hand to
decline the call irritably.
âCarry on,â he said to everyone in the conference room.
Everyone was momentarily stunned but quickly composed themselves and continued with the meeting.
Janet was bewildered and wondered why the call ended so quickly and if there was a problem with the line.
She didnât give up and continued to dial Theodoreâs number.
At that moment, the nanny, who had entered the room unnoticed, saw the child crying and became anxious before she hurried over to pick up the child.
âGet out!â Janet snapped coldly at the nanny.
The nanny froze at her words and looked at her in shock.
Janet stared at the nanny and sternly commanded, âGet out! Donât come into the room again without my
permission!â
The nanny then glanced at the baby and hesitated for a moment. But eventually, she decided to mind her own business, nodded, and left.
After the nanny left, Janet continued to call Theodore. However, aside from the first call, all subsequent attempts were met with a message from the telecom service stating that the phone was turned off.
Chapter 50
She wondered ansiously, âDid Theodore hang up on me and then turn off his phone?â
Janet, unwilling to give up, took out her phone, recorded a video of the baby crying, and sent it to Theodore on WhatsApp with a deliberately worried and anxious message.
The text accompanying the video read: Theodore, what do I do? The baby has been crying nonâstop lately. Could he be sick? Is there something wrong with him?)
After sending the message, Janet turned to the baby. Seeing the babyâs face turning red from crying, she picked him up and gently soothed him.
The twoâmonthâold baby was easy to soothe. As soon as he was in his motherâs arms, the smell of milk made him stop crying, and he flashed his mother a happy, goofy smile.
Back at the Edwards Group, Theodore finished his meeting, returned to his office, and finally turned his phone. back on. As soon as he did, he saw Janetâs message.
He couldnât help but wonder if something was wrong with the baby.
Theodore hesitated for a moment before standing up, grabbing his coat, and leaving.
Over at Mitchell Villa, Janet saw Theodore arrive and immediately went out to greet him excitedly. âTheodore,
youâre here?â
He frowned and directly asked, âHowâs the baby?â
âTheodore, come inside first,â Janet replied cheerfully.
Theodore walked in and went straight to check on the baby.
When the nanny saw the babyâs âfatherâ coming, she acted more carefully.
Theodore turned to Janet and asked, âHave you taken him to the hospital?â
Janet was still thrilled about his visit, so she still looked delighted. She then shook her head and replied, âNot yet.
Theodore frowned and commanded in a cold tone, âTake the baby. We are going to the hospital.â
Janet was instantly at a loss for words.
âTheodore, the baby has stopped crying. Maybe he was just hungry this afternoon. It shouldnât be anything serious,â she hurriedly said.
Then, Janet added, âDid you leave work to rush over here, Theodore? Youâre so good to our baby. Heâd be so happy if he knew.â

With that, she turned to the nanny and instructed, âMary, hasnât it been a while since the baby got some sunlight? His jaundice hasnât cleared up yet. Go and take him out for a walk.â
Mary was then at a loss for words.
She e wasnât stupid. She could tell that Janet was intentionally sending her and the baby away.
Afterward, Mary silently took the baby and went out.
Theodore wasnât fooled either. He looked at Janet and realized that everything that afternoon had been an act.
estated, âSince the baby is fine, Iâll get going now.â With that, Theodore turned and left.
net panicked, hurriedly caught up to him, and grabbed his hand. âTheodore!â
eodore pulled away from her hand in disgust, turned back to look at her, and said coldly, âJanet, even if I divorce. Decca, I will never marry you. Stop your scheming.â
