Falling For My Mysterious Wife By Cassidy Alfaro Chapter 389


    Chapter 389


    Jalen did not know how to answer her when he heard what ina asked.


    There wasn’t a lot to do in the Halton Group, and it was not because he was too busy to see ina, but


    because of Steven.


    Steven sent his men to keep an eye on Jalen. As long as Jalen came to ina, Steven would know. At


    that time, Steven might have done something to ina.


    Jalen had to be alert, so he did not dare toe to ina.


    But he was not idle either. He was busy buying the directors. As long as Jalen had them on his side


    and kicked Steven out of his position, he would have nothing to worry about anymore.


    It was not easy.


    Those old men always supported Steven. After all, many of them were promoted by Steven, not to


    mention that they were already dissatisfied with Jalen and his reforms in recent years. How could they


    possibly support Jalen at this moment?


    Jalen did not intend to let ina know about all these things. First, he did not want her to worry about


    him. Second, he did not want her to know the existence of Steven, in case she would be unhappy.


    “What? Why don’t you say something?” The smile on ina’s face faded a little.


    Jalen did not know what to say, which exined why he remained silent.


    In other words, he was not busy with anything.


    Jalen came back to his senses and noticed that ina was unhappy. He exined, “Just some


    business affairs in thepany. I have been dealing with some errands recently.”


    “Is that so? What errands? Tell me. Maybe I can give you some advice.” Her aggressiveness made


    Jalen frown.


    ina was not the kind of person who wanted to get to the bottom of everything. Jalen looked at her


    and said slowly, “Do you think I’m lying to you?”


    With a ding, the elevator reached the first floor and the door opened. The two of them walked out side


    by side, and the atmosphere became particrly tense.


    Lying?


    ina did not know.


    “E, I’ve been really busy recently. Don’t overthink, okay?” Jalen had topromise since it was his


    fault.


    ina sighed and sat down on a bench. “Then tell me, are you being honest with me from beginning to


    end?”


    Jalen paused. He noticed ina’s serious tone and was a little puzzled. “Of course. If I really lie to you,


    I must have a reason.”


    For example, he had lied to ina that he was busy right now, but in fact, he was trying his best to


    protect her from Steven.

    Jalen felt that this reason should be eptable.


    Hearing him say that, ina didn’t know how to describe what she felt. Anyway, she didn’t feel good.


    ina sighed. She just thought that it was time to make everything clear. Otherwise, she would feel like


    a huge weight in her chest and she would be worried forever.


    “Then…” She turned to look at Jalen. “What about Ethel?”


    Hearing Ethel’s name, Jalen froze, his eyes full of disbelief, and then anger. ina also saw the


    change in the look on his face.


    “Who told you that?” His gloomy face made ina feel like he had be a stranger.


    “It’s not the point. The point is, am I her substitute for you?” ina did not beat around the bush and


    asked directly.


    “Substitute?” Jalen frowned and looked even more displeased. “Nonsense, you are you. What does it


    have to do with her?”


    “Really? Then why do we look so alike?” It couldn’t be a coincidence, right? It couldn’t be that Jalen


    just. happened to have a thing for women who looked like her.
