Chapter 1295 Broken PromiseAt eight o’clock the next morning,
Brandon was awoken by a phone call. Last night, Janet’s seductive prowess had proved too much for him to resist, and it wasn’t
until dawn that they ended. Exhausted after such intense love-making, Brandon’s mood turned rotten when his phone rang so
early that morning.
When he saw that the call was from Garrett, he rudely ended it and tried to go back to sleep.
To his surprise, Garrett persisted and kept calling.
Gritting his teeth, Brandon finally picked up the phone and barked, “What the hell are you doing?”
Garrett’s cheerful voice cbuzzing through from the other end. “Laney started talking to me!”
Brandon’s tone turned menacing. “Did you call just to tellthat?”
“Of course not!”
Garrett didn’t notice the irritation in Brandon’s voice at all, and continued to chatter away excitedly, “I want to thank you and Janet
for your help! If it weren’t for you two, I would’ve thought Laney was going to divorce me. However, she just toldthat she
didn’t send those things. It seems like she might still be in love with me...”
“You idiot.” Without waiting for him to finish his sentence, Brandon hung up immediately.
If he continued to listen to his drivel, he might end up just as stupid as Garrett.
Laney was lucky to have a friend like Janet. Otherwise, if she and Garrett were to have another misunderstanding, their already
fragile relationship would surely hang precariously in the balance. At this time, Jwas also awoken by the phone
conversation. She rubbed her eyes and asked in a daze, “What’s going on?” Brandon cradled her in his arms and whispered,
“Nothing, it was just a telemarketer. Let’s go back to sleep...”
“Hmm...” Jsnuggled comfortably in his arms and drifted back to sleep.
A week later, Jfinally finished designing the clothes for Carly’s grandmother after putting in several hours of overtime. Carly
then brought her grandmother to the stuto try on the finished outfit.
Inside the fitting room, the elderly woman changed into the clothes and stood in front of the mirror, trembling lightly as she gazed
at herself in the mirror. A slow, contented smile slowly spread across her weathered face.
“It looks magnificent.” The corners of the elderly woman’s lips couldn’t help but lift up in joy, and her eyes moistened as she said,
“I’ve never worn such a beautiful piece of clothing in my entire life.”
Carly’s eyes turned slightly red with tears as she said, “As long as you’re happy with it, grandma, I’ll have someone make as
many as you want.”
The elderly woman quickly waved her hand and said, “No need for that. I’m quite satisfied with this one.”
After a moment, she took Carly’s hand and exclaimed with deep emotion, “My little Carly’s all grown up now and can get me
such fine clothes. That’s more than enough to makevery happy.” As she stood beside them, observing the touching
exchange between grandmother and granddaughter, Jcouldn’t help but think of Hannah. A subtle smile appeared on her
Back when Hannah wore the new clothes she made for her for the first time, a similar scene unfolded, with tears of joy filling her
eyes as she held Janet’s hand tightly and told her how much she loved it.

generation to take care of them.
The elderly woman glanced at herself in the mirror over and over again, until
she suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to Janet. With a bit of uneasiness in her voice, she asked,
Could you please tellhow much this outfit costs?” Behind her grandma’s back, Carly immediately gave Ja signal with
her eyes.
She wanted Jto keep the true cost of the outfit from her grandma. Considering how frugal the old lady was, she was surely
going to becagitated if she found out how much Carly had paid for it.
