Chapter 458

“I’ve asked a maid to prepare your room. You can use this one for the time being.” Johanna personally
escorted Janet to her designated room.

The decoration was quaint and a little old-fashioned, but there were many plush dolls in it, which gave
the room a strange and funny vibe.

Looking at all the plushies, Johanna smiled awkwardly, “I didn’t know what you’d like, so I ended up
buying all these dolls…”

In Johanna’s mind, Janet was the baby she had lost all those years ago. They were practically
strangers to each other now.

Janet looked at the dolls and chuckled softly. “I’ve never had so many toys before. Thank you, Mrs.
White.”

For now, she couldn’t bring herself to call Johanna “Mom” yet.

Seeing that Janet didn’t seem to have a problem with the room, Johanna breathed a sigh of relief and
smiled happily. “I won’t force you. Just take your time. Well, you just stay here and make yourself
comfortable. Your father and I have discussed, and we have decided to hold a big party for the
announcement as soon as possible.”

“There’s no rush…” Janet said falteringly, trying to stop Johanna.

She wasn’t used to her new status as the daughter of the White family, but Johanna and Beal couldn’t
wait to tell the world.

Noticing the embarrassment on Janet’s face, Johanna reached for her hand and said sincerely, “You
are our daughter. You’ll have to get used to it one day. Your father and I were talking and… We were



hoping to have your surname changed. Since the Lind family has nothing to do with you now, you don’t
have to keep their surname anymore.”

Janet nodded. She didn’t care about the Lind family name anyway now that she married to Ethan.

All of Barnes’s upper class was in an uproar the next morning.

The White family had just announced that their daughter, who had been missing for over twenty years,
was finally found. Johanna revealed Janet’s identity to the public and changed the latter’s surname to
White.

The White family invited all the celebrities and influential people in Barnes to their dinner party.

That night, they all gathered in the White Cloud Club.

The security of this banquet was strict, and Johanna specially ordered that no stray entertainment
reporter was allowed inside.

Those kinds of reporters tended to cover nonsense. She didn’t want her daughter to be scrutinized on
the Internet, so she took all the necessary precautions to avoid it.

It was the first time Janet had attended such a grand party. And she was under the spotlight. Johanna
introduced her to many esteemed guests.

Throughout the entire night, Janet heard countless names.

“Is it tiring?” Seeing the exhausted look on Janet’s face, Beal gave her a slice of cake, feeling sorry for
her.

Over the past few days, Johanna had taken up all of Janet’s time. Beal felt a little sad that he hadn’t
had a good talk with his daughter yet.



Janet subtly rubbed her aching ankles. She was wearing a pair of 3-inch heels tonight.

She forced a smile and said, “I am fine. Mr. White, your wife is awesome. She’s still so energetic even
after chatting with all these rich people.”

Beal looked at the energetic Johanna in the distance and smiled. “Let me tell you a secret. Your mother
actually hates those rich ladies and often speaks ill of them. The only reason why she still talks to them
is to keep up with the latest gossip.”

Janet couldn’t help but chuckle. Beal held a finger to his lips and winked at her. “Don’t tell her I told you
her little secret, or else she’ll kick me out of the bedroom tonight.”

Janet nodded and promised him solemnly.

She suddenly envied Lila. Growing up in such a loving family, she probably had a very happy childhood
and youth.

Beal had only chatted with Janet for a few minutes before he was surrounded again by many guests.

Janet didn’t want to disturb their talk, so she retreated to the yard. She took this opportunity to call
Ethan.

“Guess who’s calling?” Janet said sweetly.

“Let me guess. It’s my wife, isn’t it? It’s been a whole day since you last talked to me. I thought you
were too busy having a good time in Barnes and forgot all about me,” Ethan said in a pouty voice.

He sounded almost resentful.

Janet chuckled helplessly. “Ethan, you’re so childish.”



She explained, “I’ve been so busy at the banquet. People have been taking my photo all day long. I
really didn’t have the time, honey.”

Being called “honey” instantly dispelled the gloom in Ethan’s heart. He sighed and secretly scolded
himself for being so soft.

“Okay. I forgive you. When are you coming back? I miss you.”

Janet blushed slightly, feeling warm in her heart. “I left yesterday. It’s only been a day, Ethan.”

Before Ethan could say anything, Janet heard her name being called.

“Janet? What’re you doing here? The party’s far from over.” Johanna noticed that Janet wasn’t in the
hall so she went out to look for her.

Janet quickly said goodbye to Ethan and then hung up the phone. Johanna dragged her back to the
party.

Because both Johanna and Beal felt guilty for the lost time, they wanted to make it up to Janet in one
go. They spent every waking minute with Janet, buying her all kinds of things.

Johanna in particular was very excited. She would take Janet out to go shopping, and always end up
buying all the things she laid her eyes on. Their shopping spree was all very exhausting for Janet.

Janet’s parents were so immersed in the excitement of getting their real daughter back that they
completely forgot about Lila, who had locked herself in her room sulkily.
