The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire Chapter 408: Encounter With The CEO

Janet wasn’t mad at all she was clear with herself that the life she was living was the life that she
wanted "Well, I suppose that makes sense,"

she offered she didn’t want to argue with Ella any further No one could truly know whether a marriage
was happy or not aside from the involved couple themselves, anyway she couldn’t care less if Ella
failed to understand that She had only bothered with a retort because she didn’t want anyone to look
down on Ethan

Despite what others might think, Ethan was the most responsible, calm, and reliable man she had ever
met Ella continued blabbering throughout dinner, boasting about how huge her luxury mansion was,
and how she had servants to help her get dressed in the morning

Now and then, she would insert minor complaints that her life had become dull and boring after she
married a rich mans It wasn’t long before Janet got fed up with Ella’s arrogant diatribe.

She furtively gathered her purse and thought of an excuse to leave once the meal was finished.

But Ella was quick to notice her intention.She immediately clung to Janet’s arm and flashed a knowing
smile.

"Oh, are you going to the bathroom, Janet? We’re heading to a high-class club after dinner to play
cards and maybe do a bit of karaoke. You're coming, right?"

One of their classmates also spoke up.

"Come on, Janet, you’ll be sorry if you miss this chance.Ella booked the Merry Club for us.I heard that
it’s exclusive for members only, and you can’t apply unless you own some hundred million dollars’
worth of assets."

As impressive as it sounded, Janet was not interested at all.



"I’m a little tired," she said.

"I’d like to go home early and get some rest."

Ironically, her words only seemed to excite Ella even more.

"Aren’t you sick of spending your days just working? Live a little! Look, if you’re hesitating because you
don’t want to spend your hard-earned money, I can cover all the expenses for you.What do you say?
We all finally got together after so long! Don’t be such a killjoy."

Janet squirmed as everyone’s gaze locked on her. Before she knew it, Ella was pulling her into the car
with a wide grin on her face.

Moments later, they arrived at the Merry Club, where Ella claimed to have booked a private room for
their enjoyment

However, when she approached the reception to confirm her booking, she was informed that it had
been voided.

"We apologize, Miss.Someone has booked the entire club for today,"

The staff gave her a polite smile.

"We have finished processing your refund.Please check to see that everything is in order."

"Ella, didn’t you say that you booked the room in advance?" a classmate questioned as they waited in
the corner like a bunch of lost refugees.

Her sharp tone grated on Ella’s already fraying nerves.She tapped her long fingernails on the reception
desk.

"Don’t you have other private rooms? I can afford whichever is available.Name your price."



"I’m sorry, Miss.Like I said, the whole club is booked.There are no rooms available."

Ella gritted her teeth and glanced at her classmates.

They had been looking forward to a good time in this posh and swanky establishment, and she had
bragged that she would deliver.

She refused to lose face in front of them.

"But I booked the room in advance!" she insisted impatiently.

Even so, the staff remained calm.

"I understand, Miss, but you still cannot go inside.The club has been booked to accommodate the
Larson Group, and it was the CEO himself who made the arrangements.They will be having a business
meeting here tonight."

Minutes had passed, but the group was still loitering around the entrance.

Ella was upset about the whole thing, but she knew there was nothing she could do.She certainly
couldn’t afford to offend anyone from the Larson Group.She took a deep breath and mustered a smile.

"Let’s just change venues, shall we? The staff told me that the whole club was booked by the Larson
Group."

They looked at each other in disappointment.

There were very few people in Seacisco who would dare to go against the Larson Group, and none of
them belonged to that demographic, Just as they were preparing to leave, several lengthened black
limos cruised into the club’s driveway



The cars stopped in a single file next to the entrance, and each chauffeur alighted to open the door to
the backseat Men in sleek business suits and hand-made Italian leather shoes emerged one by one,
looking serious and dignified, Ella’s posse gawked at them, particularly at the man in the middle.

He stood tall among his peers, with broad shoulders and sharp features.He posed an imposing figure,
and his eyes were cold and distant.

"Look, look! That man is gorgeous.Is he the CEO of the Larson Group?"

Janet was trying to send Ethan a message, but she was jostled around by her classmates in their
hushed frenzy. When she heard mention of the CEO of the Larson Group, she instantly perked up and
looked over curiously.

She wasn’t sure why she did it, either.It was as though a voice at the back of her mind was nagging at
her to look.

And just like that, her eyes fell on a very familiar face just a few feet away.
