My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Janet’s sincerity and warmth gradually thawed the apprehension of the elderly couple.
They began to see her in a new light, realizing perhaps they had been wrong about her role in their daughter’s demise.
Noticing his wife’s discomfort, the elderly man wished to spare her further distress. After a brief inner struggle, he decided to
accept Janet’s goodwill. With a grateful nod, he expressed, “Thank you. Your kindness is appreciated.”
Lexi and Sean stepped in at the right moment, assisting the elderly couple, guiding them away to settle down. As the couple was
escorted away by Janet’s subordinates, the burly men, suddenly bereft of their golden goose, thrashed about violently. Their
resistance was such that even the bodyguards struggled to hold them back. Their trip to Barnes had one purpose-to secure a
hefty compensation. But with the bereaved parents refusing any such recompense, their journey seemed futile. Breaking free,
one burly man spat out his gag. He spun around to face the elderly couple, bellowing with rage, “We journeyed here to win
justice for Vivi, and you decline the compensation? Why are you here then? What good is justice to us? Demand money, you
fools! Money! Don’t you get it?”
His words ignited a fury within Janet. Could these people be so heartless?
Their focus was solely on the money, with no regard for the truth behind Vivi’s death. Moreover, they showed no concern for the
parents’ profound heartache and sorrow.
Just as Janet was on the brink of losing her patience, the old woman halted.
She turned to face the ruffians, her eyes brimming with tears.
Janet felt a surge of worry, fearing the old woman might be swayed by the thug’s harsh words.
To her surprise, the elderly lady turned to Janet, uttering an apology, “I’m sorry.”
Janet was taken aback, only to hear the woman clarify with a sense of defeat,
“These individuals are merely distant relatives. They came hoping to wring some money from you. They hold no connection to
us.”
The older man also declared heatedly, “They’ve shown no concern for Vivi!
Either send them packing or turn them over to the authontties. It’s all the same to us!”

Caught off guard by this firm response, the bullies looked poised to unleash threats, but Brandon’s stern glance halted them.
Aware of both Janet and
Brandon’s reputations, they swiftly retreated.
Despite their simple village upbringing, they knew when to push and when to back off.
Thus, their silence brought the disturbance to a close.
Watching the scene from the sidelines, Suzanne clenched her jaw in bitter resentment.
Vivi’s kin were just as useless as she was!
She had organized a flock of reporters outside, yet in the face of such a golden opportunity, they’d failed to cast Janet as the
villain!
Now, after a mere warning from Brandon, these spineless individuals were too timid to even ask for damages. It appeared they
wouldn’t dare to meddle with Janet again.
All her careful planning was for naught!
Worthless! Absolutely worthless! They were all worthless!! Suzanne was seething internally, but she maintained a remorseful
front. “Ms. White, I apologize. I failed to defuse the situation, leading to today’s events.”
Janet’s suspicion of Suzanne deepened with every passing incident.
Suzanne always seemed like an innocent bystander, but each time trouble arose, it felt as if she were subtly stirring the pot. 1
From Vivi’s tearful pleas for mercy to her family’s demands for compensation, Suzanne’s behind-the-scene role was ambiguous.
But one thing was certain―Janet wasn’t about to let anyone manipulate her anymore.
She offered a serene smile and responded, “No harm done, Ms. Duncan. Your intentions were good.”
Suzanne sighed as if carrying a heavy burden. “Still, I feel accountable. I don’t want to impose on Ms. White further. Since Vivi
was under my employ, perhaps I should tend to her parents?” Janet returned her smile, a warm expression on her face. “Your
generosity is appreciated, Ms. Duncan. However, they have endured enough. Let’s not add to their troubles and allow them
some peace.”

Janet was determined to ensure that the care of Vivi’s parents was entrusted to reliable people until the investigation of Vivi’s car
accident was resolved. She wouldn’t give certain individuals the chance to sow more discord.
