After Being Cheating novel Chapter 275

Janet was not ordinary at all. She had been born into and raised by a wealthy family.

With a child in her womb, she left home to protect it. Life was tough, but she tried her best to support herself.

She had to find a job and live a frugal life. Caspar really felt sorry for her.

Later, under the instruction of Caspar's grandfather, Janet took over the Tianye Men. Caspar knew that the position was dangerous. But if he dared go against his grandfather's wishes, his grandfather wouldn't admit his mother into his family.

It was not his grandfather's fault, though. He was a person who always believed in fate. Janet showed up with the Tianye Bead, so Caspar's grandfather took it as a sign that Janet was destined to be a part of the Tianye Men.

...

Caspar tried his best to dissuade his grandfather, but he failed, so he gave in.

When Janet was kidnapped for the first time, he didn't blame himself for getting Janet involved. In his eyes, conflicts between factions were so common.

But things got worse. Janet was assaulted and sent to the hospital. It was not until then did he feel guilty.

He vowed to take good care of Janet and her twins to make it up for bringing her into such mess.

When Janet was kidnapped for the fourth time, he used whatever resources he had, but he still failed to trace her.

Half a year later, she was caught by the police, and Caspar bailed her out. When they met again, she looked different.

She got thinner, had learnt to smoke, and knew how to use different kinds of dangerous weapons. Even worse, she had been taking drugs.

He kept asking her what happened in those six months, but she wouldn't say a word. One could tell through her eyes that she had been through unspeakable things.

Feeling guilty for what had happened to Janet, Caspar accompanied her to a rehab center. There, she suffered nightmares. Caspar was the only one who stayed next to her and comforted her.

Janet was strong by nature. With much support from Caspar and the twins, she succeeded in getting completely sober within a few months.

"Caspar…" Janet swept her hand in front of the man who had been lost in thought.

Caspar came back to his senses. Enduring the pain from the injured arm, he reached out to hold Janet in his arms.

Janet wriggled to break free. When she felt he was struggling, she stopped.

"Janet, I'm sorry, " He apologized in a hoarse voice.

He admitted that he had been selfish. Janet never had any intention of being the head of the Tianye Men. Taking advantage of her memory loss, he worked with all the others to deceive her.

If it hadn't been for him, Janet wouldn't have gotten hurt over and over again. There was once a time when Janet was bitten by a poisonous snake. It was a life-threatening situation; he almost lost her.

After she gave birth to the twins, she matured and even became the most outstanding woman among all the other factions.

Caspar knew perfectly well that she was not a part of the Tianye Men and should not be involved in any dangerous missions. But he just couldn't bring himself to let her go.

"Caspar, what's up? Why did you say that?" Janet hesitated and hugged him in response.

Caspar took a deep breath and said, "Janet, have you been happy these past three years?"

She always wore a smile in front of them. He could tell that it was fake.

Janet was startled by his question. She then smiled and said, "Caspar, I was happy. I have my daughters, your grandfather, and you around. Everyone here treats me well. It's like I belong. I have no idea how to pay back your kindness."

Outside the ward, a man lazily leaned against the wall, coldly staring at the two embracing each other.

'Janet, I will give you one more minute. If you keep holding him like that, I will... get angry!'

What she said was a hint that she only regarded him as her brother, and Casper knew it.

Daniel was counting down outside. When there was only six seconds left, Caspar loosened his embrace.
