The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 428 To Barnes
Janet woke up the next day with a sharp throbbing in her eyes. She padded into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was a mess, and her eyes were al bloodshot and puffy. She looked terrible
“Just skin and bones,” she muttered, pinching her arm and forcing a smile. Realization suddenly struck her she had nothing to worry about at all. She was only in her twenties, she still had much of her youth to squander, not to mention a whole life waiting ahead of her.
Janet delved into her thoughts. She had never had much ever since she was a little girl. When she was in primary school, she had a favorite pencil box with a pretty Barbie pattern. Jocelyn ended up throwing it away out of spite And while Janet was torn over the loss, she eventually forgot about the knickknack altogether. Perhaps Ethan would be just like that pencil box.
Besides, he had made a point of keeping his true ident*ity from the start. Janet didn’t want to think that it was due to some misgivings on his part, but she couldn’t really blame him if that was the case.
With renewed resolve, she opened her computer and proceeded to send out her resumes to design companies all over the country Shortly after, she received a notice for interview from Flying Kite, a famous establishment in Barnes. The thing, however, was that she hadn’t sent them her resume.
Curious, Janet opened the e-mail to confirm its contents. Sure enough, the HR Manager of Flying Kite expressed their appreciation for her designs, and even mentioned that they were aware that her former superior at the Larson Group had nothing but praise for her.
It occurred to her then that she had previously spoken to Tiffany about changing jobs. Was it Tiffany who had recommended her to Flying Kite? Grat*itude bloomed in Janet’s heart. She hadn’t expected that someone else in Larson Group genuinely cared about her besides Gerda.
Flying Kite Design Company came second to the Larson Group. Because it engaged mainly in the overseas market, and it wasn’t particularly known in the local landscape. But Janet had seen their designs, and they were quite on par with those of the Larson Group.
And here she was now, staring at their invitation and the impressive pay they stipulated. Janet pondered it for a second before deciding to accept their invite. She had been planning to leave, anyway, and they did offer a very attractive salary. Given her sK*lls and experience, she was almost certain that she was going to get this job. More importantly, Barnes was located farther up in the North, while Seacisco was in the South She could finally escape Ethan, and stay away from him for good..
After she settled down in Barnes, Hannah could also come over and stay with her. Janet didn’t pack much. She only brought some necessities, which didn’t even require a suitcase. Ethan had already gone to the company early that morning. Without telling anyone, she booked a plane ticket online and took a taxi to the airport. On her way, she called Tiffany. “Thank you, Miss Fisher. I received an offer from Flying Kite, and I’m on my way to the airport as we speak. Can you send me the forms needed to file for resignation? I’m afraid I don’t have time to drop by the company.”
“I see, of course. Well, I wish you a smooth journey and a bright future ahead.” Their conversation was brief. After hanging up, Tiffany paused and wondered. She wasn’t sure why Janet thanked her in the first place. Was it for formality’s sake? She was actually neutral on whether Janet should leave or stay, and she was just surprised to learn that Janet had already made such a bold decision so soon.
Laney hid behind a large pillar as she watched Janet walk through the airport entrance. She immediately sent Ethan a message, and then followed Janet inside Ethan had instructed her to keep an eye on Janet and report her every move. Laney had initially thought that Janet was merely going out for a walk, since the latter didn’t bring any luggage with her. But Laney’s cool soon crumbled when she realized that they were heading to the airport.
