After Being Cheating novel Chapter 67

Daniel vividly remembered Janet's beauty and the memorable moments of their previous night.

He had witnessed her wonderful metamorphosis, changing from a little girl into a beautiful woman.

Daniel lifted his beige bed sheet from his bed, folded it up and placed it into a drawer.

Except for the time he had spent in the military camp, this was the first time that Daniel changed his bed sheet all by his own.

After he finished, he sat in his study and began to smoke cigarettes, one after the other.

He had never been lost in thought like this before, not even when his ex-girlfriend Sabina Fan had betrayed him.

Kate looked like Sabina.

He believed that he would fall in love with Kate, but, in fact, it seemed that he didn't have any feelings for her at all.

It wasn't until he met Janet again that Daniel's whole heart was thrown in a total mess because of her.

Daniel took the quarrels and fights he had with Janet over the years as only puerile and childish, never thinking much about them while growing up.

However, when he met her at the airport again for the first time in a long time, he was deeply attracted by her every single gracious movement.

Even when he had kissed her in the car, he had never regretted any of it.

She was a spoiled princess, but he didn't think that Jane was beyond reasoning.

She was naughty, arrogant, wayward and lawless. But she never deliberately hurt others or looked down upon anyone. Even when Kelsen had jumped her twice, she had just asked for the dog to be sent away.

Many times he thought, 'Even if she's so stubborn, I just want to take good care of her.'

When he faced the cameras and the ruthless media, he declared that Kate was his girlfriend.

He had done this just to protect Janet, who looked weak and helpless in front of the merciless reporters and their video equipment.

He insisted on showing his affection for Kate in front of her whenever he had the chance, just to stimulate her and to see if she would become jealous on Kate.

But the woman seemed to be a strange creature indeed, or maybe it was because Janet couldn't express anything else other than anger.

And he couldn't figure out whether she was angry just because he was being indifferent to her or because she was actually jealous.

...

Steadily, the sky grew lighter, and this was the first time that Daniel hadn't gone to his company for a whole day.

Spark tried to call him, but his phone was off; he also tried knocking at his villa's door but to no avail. Spark couldn't find him.

'This is too odd. He usually leaves the company late at night, but where could have he gone today?' Spark pondered.

But something wasn't correct in his thought. Daniel had seldom worked overtime since the day Janet had appeared. 'If he doesn't have any social engagements, he'll eventually return to his villa, ' concluded Spark.

Spark then tried to call Janet, but her phone was also off.

He went to her shop, and learned from one of the clerks that Janet also didn't arrive today for work!

There were a lot of documents that needed to be signed by Daniel that day, and when he thought of them, Spark felt very uptight and finally decided to call Harry.

"You can't get in touch with Daniel?" asked Harry.

He was confused, and couldn't believe what he had just asked.

He also couldn't believe what Spark told him, because he knew that his son had inherited his hard-working spirit and, even more than that, had worked harder than him every single day. Since he had become the new CEO, Daniel had devoted himself to his company's work.

He had never even taken a day off work the whole year, except if it was highly demanded of him to do so.

"Well, yes, Mr. Si. I know this is odd, it's already afternoon now, and I still can't get in touch with him, " replied Spark. He wiped the cold beads of sweat off his forehead, thinking: 'Like father, like son! His father also makes me nervous and afraid when he goes silent.'

"What about Jane?" asked Harry. He began to boldly speculate what might have happened.

Spark said, "I've already tried to contact Janet, but her phone is also powered off and she also didn't arrive at her shop today. Both of them seem to be..."

When he heard this, Harry began to slowly understand.

He thought that there certainly must be something happening between Daniel and Jane, but had no idea whether they were together or not.

"OK, I see. I'll contact you later if I get any news on him, " said Harry.

After he hung up the phone, he called Jerry straightaway.

Both Samuel and Ella were abroad now, and only Jerry remained to help him find Daniel and Janet.
