Ch. 571..580
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 571
Mason looked up; his expression was incomprehensible. “Sit down.”
White Python and Black Python finally took their seat upon receiving his permission.
“How was her training today?” Mason took a sip of coffee. He was wondering about Janet’s physical fitness.
“Um…” White Python hesitated; he kept looking around the room. In the end, his gaze fell on Mason’s face and he gave a determined answer. “She was pretty good!”
After he said that, Mason lit a cigarette he took out from the cigarette case. Slowly, he uttered, “Really?”
“She’s slightly lacking in boxing, but pretty good at other sports!” said Black Python as he ducked his head down nervously.
“Oh? Boxing!” Mason let out a low chuckle and crossed his legs. “What else did you teach them today?”
As soon as he said that, the waiting room fell silent. The corners of White Python’s mouth twitched. He didn’t expect Mason to ask something like that. He gulped hard. “Currently… we only taught them boxing!”
Upon hearing that, both Sean and Mason were rendered speechless. So, what did they mean when they said that she was lacking in boxing and pretty good at the others? They only taught her boxing!
Sean nearly couldn’t hold back his laugh. On the other hand, Mason sucked in the smoke from the lit cigarette and exhaled slowly. His expression behind the smoke was inexplicable.
Black Python really hoped Mason could train Janet by himself. He couldn’t do it anymore! Yet, if he were to say that, what awaited him would be a trip to rural Africa. Therefore, he said cautiously, “I really can’t teach Miss Jackson boxing anymore. She doesn’t have the fundamentals!” Pausing for a moment, he then promised, “But, I can help her with the other sports.” At least there was a rock climbing category later. Janet wouldn’t need their guide because she was even better than them when it came to rock climbing!
Upon hearing Black Python’s promise, Mason did not force him further and he nodded. “Fine. As long as you don’t hurt her!”
As soon as he said that, his right-hand men breathed sighs of relief. When did Young Master Mason become so sensible?
“Don’t worry, Young Master Mason. You don’t have to worry about Miss Jackson’s safety. After two weeks, she’s still going to be the same Miss Jackson. We won’t let anything happen to her!” After Black Python said that, he stood up and was ready to leave.
Suddenly, Mason called him. Turning around, he saw Mason take out two spray bottles and put them on the table. Then, he said in a low voice, “Bring these to her!”
Sean smirked at Mason’s behavior. Yesterday night, Mason found someone to send him the most expensive and effective repair cream and sunscreen in the world. Every bottle was custom made for the rich and they were priced at an eight-digit figure each. Mason was willing to spend to such an extent just so he could protect Janet from sunburn.
Black Python nodded and came back to pack the things.
When Mason stared at Black Python’s leaving figure, he recalled what he just said. Is babe really that weak? Pursing his lips, he thought, Is she really not the head of the MX? Sucking in the final last bit of smoke from the lit cigarette, he tapped the cigarette lightly on the ashtray; his peach blossom eyes looked into the distance.
On the other side, the dinner ended at 6 PM and the students from the performance arts school were leaving the canteen.
Black Python and White Python happened to arrive at the entrance. When they looked up, their eyes immediately caught Janet who was standing amongst the students. Step by step, Black Python approached her. When he came close to her, he handed the bag in his hand to her and whispered, “This is from Young Master Mason!”
Reflexively, Janet took the bag and whispered back, “He came?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 572
“Yeah,” answered Black Python with no expression on his face. However, unbeknownst to Janet, his eyes were on another girl. Janet nodded at his affirmation lazily and followed the group back to the dorm.
Yet, the group of students from the performance arts school, who were continuously staring at Janet, were dumbfounded.
“What the hell? What did Instructor Black Python give to Janet?”
“Why is it Janet again?”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. I didn’t expect Janet to be so capable. How did she manage to make the heartless Black Python fall in love with her? She’s impressive!”
He gave her mineral water in the morning and what is that bag of things he gave her again now? What is he doing? How can Janet accept everything from Instructor Black Python so shamelessly?
Biting her lips hard, Madelaine was exasperated. Even a ruthless instructor is seduced by Janet? What is happening right now? Since he already gave her presents, is he going to crown her as the best trainee by the end of the military training? This is so unfair. If the title goes to Janet, I’m going to report this to the principal!
Sharon became energetic after she went back to the dorm. For a long moment, she stared at Janet’s bag. Nonetheless, she didn’t dare to ask her anything.
Yet, her unusualness did not go unnoticed by Janet. So, as soon as Janet went back to the dorm, she opened the bag and took a look at the things inside. There were two spray bottles and some other things. Janet couldn’t help but laugh. She wondered how a man like Mason knew to give her these kinds of things.
“Repair cream and sunscreen spray? The packaging looks so high class!” exclaimed Abby. I don’t think I’ve seen this brand before. I wonder how well it works?
Summer went to Janet’s side. Intentionally, she raised one of her brows. “Janet, are you and Instructor Black Python acquainted?” How could they not notice that? From Black Python giving her a bottle of mineral water in the morning and cosmetic products just now, everything was hinting that their relationship wasn’t simple.
Yet, Janet shook her head calmly. In a neutral tone, she said, “It’s from a friend. He gave it to me on behalf of that friend!”
Immediately, there was a look of realization on Summer and Sharon’s faces.
“The sun is hot today. Do you want to give it a try?” Staring at Sharon’s flushed face, Janet took the initiative and asked. Black Python punished her on a five-kilometer run earlier today. Janet thought her skin was probably burned by the sun. After all, what Mason gave her wouldn’t be bad.
Upon hearing that, a smile found its way to Sharon’s flushed face; her almond eyes widened. “Thank you, then.”
Janet handed her the bottle and let her figure it out herself.
When Abby saw Sharon using the product, she stepped forward and meddled in. “Janet, I want some too!”
Smiling with her eyes curved, Janet was about to take a shower in the bathroom. At this moment, her phone that was placed on the bed rang. She put down the clothes in her hand and walked over. Seeing that it was a call from Lee, she picked up the phone.
From the other side of the phone was his familiar nonchalant voice. “Janet, I’ve bought you a ticket to Yobril tomorrow. It’s a 1 PM flight!”
Janet sat on her bed with her leg crossed. She nearly forgot about that trip. Since her instructors were Black Python and White Python, it might be easy for her to take a day off. It was an order worth more than a billion. There was no way she would miss it.
“Okay. I got it!”
Just when Janet was about to hang up, Lee suddenly said, “Janet, I have bad news for you. Your man told me that he has a deal for us. And he insisted that you must show up.”
When Janet heard that, she was puzzled. “Can we make it a few days later?” she asked.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 573
An order worth more than a billion was something Janet couldn’t reject!
“I told him, but he didn’t agree!” Janet was disappointed upon hearing Lee’s remarks. How can this be so coincidental? I cannot reject this deal at this point…
After a moment of hesitation, Janet could only say, “Fine!” Hanging up, she made a call to another person again.
In the meantime, Mason was reviewing a document in the Lowry Residence. Suddenly, he heard someone knocking on the door. “Come in!”
Sean pushed the door open and came in. Stopping in front of Mason, he said in a low voice, “Young Master Mason, the MX’s head has agreed to meet us. It seems like we can know for sure if it is Miss Jackson now!”
Upon hearing that, Mason looked up. A trace of laziness flashed before his eyes and he hummed in response.
“But…” Although Sean hesitated, he ended up saying it. “Why don’t you ask Miss Jackson directly?”
Mason opened the cigarette case and lit up the cigarette. Then, he spoke in a clear and indifferent tone. “This is different.” To ask her and discovering it himself were two different things! If she didn’t want to disclose her identity for the time being, he didn’t mind it. However, he was curious whether there would be such a coincidence in this world. What he was even more curious about was that gun!
On the following day, Janet got up early in the morning and started packing her things.
When Abby came out of the bathroom after washing up, she was stunned. Walking toward Janet in her slippers, she blinked as her vision was still blurry. “Janet, what are you doing?”
“I have things to do!” Janet was absent-minded. “I’ll ask the instructor for a leave of absence!”
After she said that, Sharon and Summer came up surrounding her. “What happened? This is so sudden!”
Janet pursed her lips in response. “It’s nothing. I’ll be back within two days!”
For a second, Abby was silent. “Is everything alright?” If something really happens, I might be able to help!
“Yeah.” Janet nodded calmly. “Alright. I have to go now!”
After leaving the dorm, Janet went to the training camp and explained the situation to Black Python. At first, Black Python was a bit hesitant. Yet, Janet began nonchalantly, “Do you know what the subordinates of the Lowry Family should do?”
He paused for a moment. Then, with a clear and loud voice, he said, “Follow instructions!”
Janet then looked up. There was a slight hint of laughter in her cold voice. “Then, why aren’t you listening to my order?”
If he didn’t allow her to leave today, it would mean that he did not recognize Janet as the future lady of the Lowry Family. Knowing that he had fallen into her trap, Black Python said nothing for a while. In the end, he gave up. “Fine. I’ll inform Mr. Goldstein later!”
Janet raised her brows in response and wickedness filled the space between her brows. “How sensible!”
Suddenly, Black Python was speechless.
Then, Janet turned around and smiled. “Bye, Instructor Black Python!”
At this moment, Mason was in the middle of a meeting inside the conference room of Lowry Family Conglomerate. Suddenly, his phone rang. The staff at the scene held their breath and looked at the man who was sitting in the main seat.
Mason’s phoenix eyes looked up slightly. Seeing that it was a call from Black Python, he immediately answered it. However, because he didn’t stop the meeting, the staff that was explaining the product did not dare to stop.
“What’s wrong?” A cold male voice rose.
“Miss Jackson took the day off and left the campus,” said Black Python respectfully.
Upon hearing that, Mason’s dark eyes darkened. His voice went lower too. “When?”
“Just now. She seemed to be caught up in something important.” Black Python was embarrassed. If he didn’t approve the leave, Janet would probably hold a grudge against him.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 574
“Okay.” Mason’s thin lips pulled into a tight line. A trace of light flashed before his eyes. Is there really such a coincidence? He was suddenly looking forward to what would happen next. However, his anticipation was mixed with nervousness.
In the afternoon, Janet went back to the base and packed up something before she asked Lee to come pick her up. The moment Lee saw her luggage, he instantly knew where she was heading to. Yet, he still asked, “Where are we going?”
“The airport.” There was no emotion on Janet’s face. She took her bag and got into the car.
At first, Lee wanted to ask her about the Lowry Family, but he ended up swallowing those words. He thought she might have her own idea.
Janet stared outside the window as she dived into her thoughts. Subconsciously, her eyes narrowed. I don’t think Mason’s sudden discovery will be anything serious. What I’m about to do will not result in something bad, right?
Alas, she decided not to trouble herself with those worries. Closing her eyes, she fell into slumber.
By the time they arrived at Yobril, it was around 7 PM. The sky was already dark outside.
After Lee and Janet arrived at the airport, they received a call from a stranger. On the other end was the steady voice of a middle-aged man. “Hello, Divine Doctor. I’m Matthew. My young master sent me to pick you up. Where are you now?”
Janet looked up and checked her surroundings. Her voice was indifferent. “At the east exit!”
Not long after that, several luxury cars came to a stop in front of the east exit.
With her hat and face mask on, she walked toward one of the luxury cars. Coldly, she said, “Mr. Matthew?”
Upon hearing that, the driver was puzzled for a moment and he said, “Divine Doctor?”
She nodded. Her expression was incomprehensible due to the face mask.
“Mr. Matthew is in the car behind!”
As soon as he said that, Lee led Janet to the car behind.
However, at the same time, the driver at the front said to the intercom, “Mr. Matthew, the divine doctor is here!” Immediately, Matthew looked out from the car window. He then saw two people walking toward him. There was a tall man with a broad figure, and behind him was a woman who exuded the exact same strong aura. At that moment, Matthew couldn’t help but stare at them. “The girl in the back is the divine doctor?” Her aura is too imposing! She’s too eye-catching in the crowd!
After a long moment, he finally regained his composure. Instantly, he got out of the car and walked toward Janet in a respectful manner. “Nice to meet you, Divine Doctor. My name is Matthew. I’m here to pick you up!”
Janet’s expression remained cold. “I’m Sandra.”
“Here you go, Miss Sandra.” Matthew pulled back his gaze. Bowing slightly, he showed her the way into the car respectfully.
“Thank you!”
“You’re welcome, Miss Sandra.” He smiled.
Several luxury cars passed under the bridge in the city center and halted in front of a five-star hotel.
“We’ve prepared rooms for the two of you. Please take the day off and I’ll bring you to meet our master tomorrow!” said Matthew.
Janet and Lee nodded at his words and got out of the car.
As Matthew walked into the hotel, he instructed the hotel manager, “Prepare two sets of dinner and find a group of security guards to guard the doors.”
“Okay, I’ll do that now.” The manager was very respectful and he quickly passed on the order to the servant beside him.
Then, Matthew turned around and grinned. “Miss Sandra, you’ll have to rest the night here. I’ll come and pick you up at 9 AM tomorrow!”
Janet hummed in response with a stoic expression.
After Matthew said that, he left with a bunch of people.
Under the lead of the hotel manager, Janet and Lee went to the 26th floor. He then said, “The both of you can use any room you want on this floor. Every room on this floor has been booked by Mr. Matthew.”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 575
“Okay,” replied Lee indifferently.
The manager nodded slightly before he left and went downstairs.
Leaning against the wall, Lee said, “It looks like our employer this time is quite generous!” They actually booked the whole floor.
Nonetheless, Janet didn’t pay much attention to things like this. Since the employer had paid her to treat someone, even though they did it anonymously, she would still have to accept it naturally. Since she was already here, she might as well just stay and make the best of it. “I’m going to rest.” She turned around and walked into the room behind her.
It was already 8 PM in Sandfort City. Mason set off from the Lowry Residence as scheduled.
In the car, Sean glanced at him from the rear-view mirror. Suddenly, he said, “Young Master Mason, I’ve been informed that the head of the MX has already set off.”
Mason stared at the scenery outside the window. Casually, he hummed in response. In the dark, a playful smile made its way across Mason’s face. He was really looking forward to the meeting later.
The night became darker. The meeting place this time was still the conference room at Lowry Family Conglomerate. A low-key black car came to a halt in front of the building. A girl got out of the car gracefully. Her face was covered by a silver mask and she wore a black vintage long dress with a pair of high heels, a strong fragrance exuding from her body. Gradually, she walked up to the front desk and asked in a deep voice, “Is President Lowry here?”
After what happened last time, the staff at the front desk was more self-aware. Straight away, she asked, “Are you from MX?”
The girl hummed in affirmation.
Instantly, the expression on the staff’s face changed. Warmly, she said, “Please come in. Young Master Mason will be here in a moment!”
The girl nodded and took a seat inside the lounge. She waited inside for a while. Not long after that, a voice was heard from the front desk. “Young Master Mason, the people from MX are already waiting inside!”
“Okay!” There was no expression on Mason’s face. Walking toward the lounge, he pushed the door ajar. He then saw the girl that was sitting on the sofa with a silver face mask on. The girl flashed him a smile and she sounded distant. “President Lowry, you’re finally here!”
Mason was already used to her appearance. He remembered her wearing the same silver face mask on their first meeting. Although her figure and the scent of her perfume were the same, he somehow felt that her smile and the way she talked were very unfamiliar to him. His thin lips then parted. “Did you catch a cold?”
The girl covered her mouth and let out a dry cough. “I’m very sorry. I did catch a cold. So, my voice might be a little hoarse.”
Upon hearing that, Mason nodded and went on, “Let’s talk in the conference room!”
Smiling, the girl followed behind him.
“Take a seat.” Mason’s voice was slightly deep.
“Thanks.” The girl beckoned the people behind her to sit down. After everyone was seated, she spoke up first. Her voice was faint and very calm, but it was slightly hoarse. “I wonder what President Lowry wants to talk about today?”
Instantly, Mason’s gaze darkened. Instead of answering her question, he let out a chuckle. “Did you change how you address me?” She had always addressed him as Mr. Lowry instead of President Lowry. This is the first time she called me that, he thought.
Flashing him a faint smile, the girl said calmly, “Aren’t all the names actually the same? After all, we’re nothing but business partners.”
Mason’s gaze was fixated on the girl; a trace of a sneer flashed before his eyes. “You’re right. I did have something to say when I called you guys here!” He paused for a moment and went on, “It was all thanks to you guys that the construction of the Lowry Family’s base went smoothly in Markovia!”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 576
For a while, the girl was startled. Then, she shrugged. “We got what we wanted. We weren’t really helping you!”
“Right. But, now that MX’s base is still under construction in Sandfort City, I’m wondering if you need the Lowry Family’s help?”
The girl was taken aback. It was a question she had never expected. She went silent for a moment, yet she still couldn’t figure out an answer. In the end, she got up from the sofa. Sounding somewhat apologetic, she said, “I’m sorry, but can you please show me where the restroom is?”
As soon as she said that, Sean stepped forward and said, “I’ll take you there!”
“Thank you!” There was a faint smile on her face and she spoke politely and respectfully.
As she left the room, Mason stared at her back with narrowed eyes. In the next instance, he retracted his gaze.
After a long moment, the girl was finally back in the conference room. A smile returned to her face. Nevertheless, her tone remained flat. “In regard to President Lowry’s question as to whether we need your help, I don’t think it’s necessary. After all, it’s not a good thing for us to get too involved with you!”
They were business partners, but at the same time, they were rivals too. If MX wanted to expand further in Sandford City, it would be inevitable for them to compete with Lowry Family Conglomerate. The current partnership between them was just a step back taken to allow the other to enter their territory. It was just the beginning; no one knew how things would evolve in the future.
“Yeah, you’re right!” Mason stared at her with squinted eyes; his gaze was cold.
Glancing at him, the girl’s delicate eyebrows raised slightly. “If there’s nothing else, do you mind if I leave first, President Lowry?”
She didn’t understand the situation. Aren’t I here to talk business with him? Why didn’t he mention anything about the business? I’m getting more and more nervous if I have to stay any longer.
Meanwhile, Mason noticed her clenched fists and he was puzzled for a moment. “Okay, I’ll walk you to the door.” The girl then walked toward the door of the conference room alongside Mason. Suddenly, a staff member came through the door with a cup of tea. Almost running into the staff member, the girl quickly dodged away. She lost her balance and hit her face on the wall. Immediately, her face mask cracked and half of her face was exposed.
The staff member, who had bumped into her earlier, kept on apologizing to her. “I’m sorry, Miss. I didn’t mean it!”
The girl grinned and waved her hand. “It’s okay.”
Upon hearing that, Mason stopped walking. He turned around and observed her. The moment his head turned, his eyes were filled with disappointment. Still, when he saw her face, he was flooded by a wave of relief. That part of her face was enough to prove that she wasn’t Janet. Although her figure and the way she managed things were similar to Janet, alas, she wasn’t Janet.
Unlike Mason, as soon as the girl saw his expression, she panicked. Quickly, she covered half of her face with a nervous expression.
Mason’s face returned to its calm and collected state. Even his tone became distant too. “I’m sorry. This way please.”
“It’s fine. I’ll be off, then.” The girl smirked and she sounded neutral.
“Sean, walk the guests to the door!”
Sean stepped forward and walked in front of the girl to lead the way.
Mason turned around on his heels and sat on his soft sofa. Staring into the distance, he muttered, “It really isn’t her.” Luckily I didn’t ask babe about this; or else, the situation would be so awkward! Breathing out a sigh of relief, the weight on his shoulders disappeared as well.
After Sean sent the guests off, he went back to the conference room. The disappointment was visible in his eyes and he said to Mason, “Tsk! I didn’t expect that we would make a wrong guess this time!” The earlier scene where the staff member served the tea was a show set up by Sean. However, he didn’t expect that it would be able to prove that the head of MX wasn’t Janet.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 577
Honestly, Sean was actually hoping that the girl would be Janet. After all, it was only then that the relationship between her and Mason would be of equal status.
Mason pursed his lips. Taking out a cigarette from the cigarette case, he went on to light it up. Now that we know that the girl isn’t Janet, why did Janet take the day off? Where did she go? All of a sudden, Mason panicked. It took me a day to clarify my doubts, yet I haven’t even called to ask babe what she is doing with the leave of absence! I was careless! Ashing his cigarette, he quickly called her.
Janet, who was far away in the five-star hotel in Yobril, just came out from the shower. When she took her phone out and was about to video call Mason, his video call request popped up.
The night breeze blew into the room through the window. The temperature was cool. As Janet stared at Mason’s face, the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curve upward subconsciously.
Mason spoke in a hoarse voice. “I heard from Black Python that you took the day off. Where did you go?” He stared at her with calm and affectionate eyes.
Biting her pink lips, she said coldly, “I just arrived in Yobril. I’m in a hotel now.”
“Yobril?” Mason paused for a moment and he went on, “Why did you go there? Are your friends with you?”
“I’m here to visit a patient.” Janet smirked and lifted one of her eyebrows, looking wicked. “Take a guess.”
Upon hearing her mischievous tone, Mason narrowed his eyes and he sounded dangerous. “Male or female?”
The tip of Janet’s heart trembled at his question. Then, she stared at him with an incomprehensible gaze. “What do you think?” It was obvious she was teasing him, trying to make him jealous. Although Mason knew her intention, he still fell into her trap.
With slightly narrowed eyes, he grabbed his phone, straightened his back, and calmed down his breath. “With whom?” He wanted to pinch her pink cheeks as he stared at her through the screen. The thought of that almost made him crazy.
“Lee,” she whispered.
Mason’s lips tightened at her words. He knew Lee and he had seen his name many times on Janet’s phone whenever he called. Nevertheless, he didn’t expect Janet to visit Yobril with him! Although he felt sour in his heart, he managed to suppress the dissatisfaction; his voice turned stony. “Okay. You should rest first!”
After he said that, Janet let out a muted laugh. “Why are you jealous? We aren’t living in the same room anyway.”
Immediately, Mason stiffened and he said, “I’m not jealous!”
At that moment, Janet was entertained by the show he put on. Deliberately, she said, “Fine. I’m going to bed now.”
Subconsciously, Mason was mumbling something. “Little devil,” he muttered. He wanted to hold her in his arms and rub her into his bones just looking at her. ‘Devil’ was indeed the best term to describe her.
Janet’s throat went dry and her heart hammered against her chest. For a while, she didn’t know what to say. After a long silence, she licked her lips and teased him, “You’re indeed the king of jealousy!”
On the other hand, the girl, who wore the face mask, left in her car as soon as she came out of the Lowry Family Conglomerate’s building. Along the way, her heart couldn’t stop pounding. God damn it. The quality of the mask is too bad! How could it break apart with just a slight bump? I should have been the one that broke apart at that moment! Why did Mason ask such a weird question and said he wanted to help? She knew she nearly revealed her identity. Nonetheless, it was lucky that she managed to seek help from Janet when she went to the bathroom as an excuse.
Sure enough, Janet’s answer was a ‘no’. Nonetheless, the girl originally thought she would be able to get away without leaving behind a trace. Yet, she didn’t expect to hit the wall and break the mask. Mason has already seen my face!
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 578
Now, Mason would probably think that she was J’Adore. This was supposed to be Janet’s identity. Lara couldn’t help but feel anxious at the thought of Mason thinking that she was J’Adore. After a moment of contemplation, she decided to explain the situation to Janet. Taking her phone out, she found Janet’s number and called her. The phone kept on ringing for a long time. Just when she was about to hang up and call again, the call was finally connected.
“What’s wrong, Lara?” A cold female voice was heard from the other side.
Lara slammed her palm on her thigh. “Something went wrong! Something went wrong!”
“Don’t panic and speak slowly!”
Lara recalled the earlier meeting with Mason. Her heart started pounding again at the memory and she felt guilty. Since the beginning, she knew she couldn’t fake Janet’s natural domineering and collected aura. However, looking at Mason’s reaction, she was sure that he didn’t notice anything wrong.
“I accidentally showed my face in front of him!”
Upon hearing her confession, Janet was speechless. “How did it happen?” Her expression stiffened slightly.
Helplessly, Lara began, “Everything went smoothly at first. But, just when I was about to walk toward the door of the conference room, someone came in suddenly, so I had to dodge away. And it just so happened that I hit my face on the wall and the face mask broke into half!”
Janet’s heart flinched. How could there be such a coincidence? Is it possible that the person who came in was arranged by Mason? If Mason really did that, was he trying to find out who was the one under the mask? Based on all his recent behaviors, he must be doubting me. After all, he confiscated my silver pistol.
People like him who held guns all year round would definitely notice that a silencer was installed in the pistol. Besides, she already used one of the bullets, so that was enough for him to suspect that she was the one who shot Baldy that night. Moreover, no one could give an explanation about the pistol.
Nonetheless, MX’s base in Sandfort City was already under construction. There was no need for her to hide her identity anymore. In fact, she had never intended to hide it from him. If he had asked, she would have told him anyway. Wait… Was he trying to ask me about that in the corridor of Woodsbury University a few days ago?
“Janet, are you listening?” Lara asked her when she noticed that Janet wasn’t responding.
Returning to her senses, Janet was silent for a moment then she smiled. “I’m listening!”
Lara paused for a second before she went on to express her opinion. “Janet, I think this the perfect opportunity to tell him that you’re J’Adore! If you don’t want him to intervene, I think he’ll respect your thoughts.”
Upon hearing that, Janet raised one of her brows and smiled. “Okay, I got it.” Everything was going in the right direction. Perhaps, I might be able to surprise him on his twenty-sixth birthday! It’s probably going to be more of a fright! However, after giving some thought to the idea, Janet knew his expression would be very entertaining.
After Janet figured things out, she slept very well. On the next day, she packed up her things and went downstairs with Lee. The pair ate something at the hotel before they waited for Matthew to pick them up.
When the clock stopped at 8:50 AM, a number of black Rolls Royce came to a halt in front of the five-star hotel. Matthew got out of the car and went into the lounge. His attitude was good and his tone was respectful. “We’re ready to leave now.”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 579
“Okay,” responded Lee as he walked in the front. Janet, on the other hand, fixed her hat and face mask before she followed behind Lee. When the drivers came to pick up the so-called divine doctor, their eyes were shining. Janet pressed her hat down and walked with her hands in her pockets. Her expression was faint.
“Please!” Matthew bowed slightly as he invited Janet into the car.
“Thank you,” said both Janet and Lee in unison.
In the car, Matthew was sizing Janet up. Cautiously, he asked, “Miss Sandra, you’re still young, right?” Looking at her outfit, Matthew thought that she wouldn’t be older than twenty-five years old.
“Yeah. I’m a freshman.” Janet’s voice was soft, but she sounded confident.
Upon hearing that, Matthew’s expression froze. Freshman? Is she playing around with us? The so-called divine doctor is only a freshman? Finding her words absurd, Matthew decided to quit asking.
When Janet saw his pursed lips and the way he was holding back himself from asking further, she couldn’t help but laugh. Nonchalantly, she said, “Why? Are you looking down on university students?” As if she didn’t care about his opinion, she took her phone out and started playing games.
Matthew’s expression became even stiffer. Quickly, he waved his hand. “Miss Sandra, please don’t get me wrong. I didn’t mean that!” He saw Janet nod in response, but she didn’t say anything else.
On the way, Matthew’s eyes kept falling on Janet from time to time. We’re already on our way to the patient’s house. As a doctor, how can she still be in the mood to play games? He was confused and couldn’t help but wonder if he picked up the wrong person, or if Sheldon got the wrong person. If Young Master Fuller finds out that the divine doctor he found is still a student and she’s only twenty years old, he will probably break down!
Almost an hour later, the car drove into a huge hilltop villa. There were a lot of guards standing outside the villa. Everyone was dressed in suits and they were armed with guns. The scene looked especially magnificent and grand. Inside the villa, one could see a door plaque printed with the two words: Fuller Residence.
Janet and Lee exchanged a meaningful glance. At first glance, Janet instantly understood the situation. Isn’t the Fuller Family the one that wanted me to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis? Huh, they really are persistent. Didn’t I tell them that there’s no cure for this disease? Why don’t they believe me? But, since I’m already here and I’ve taken the money, I should just go take a look at the patient as a formality.
Sheldon had been waiting for Janet in the living room. As soon as the car stopped, Janet and Lee were led into the house. They came into the living room one after another. The first thing they saw was a man, who sat on the sofa, and a foreign man, who was standing beside him. The one sitting on the sofa was Sheldon Fuller and the one standing was Reiner Frederick, whom Janet had drugged with a strong laxative back in the Golden Luna!
Standing up, Sheldon came forward politely. The smile on his face was faint. “Welcome!”
“Nice to meet you,” replied Janet softly.
Staring at Janet’s figure, Sheldon’s pupils shrank. An unexplainable emotion washed over him. On both occasions, Janet had covered herself tightly in her clothing. Yet, her back was still the figure that had appeared in his dreams for countless nights.
Noticing Sheldon’s gaze on her, Janet couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. When Sheldon heard her laugh, he managed to return to his senses. Nodding at Janet and Lee, he said, “Please take a seat!” The pair simply found themselves a place to sit. Janet tried to hide her presence, yet her aura couldn’t go unnoticed by the others. Although she tried to maintain a low profile, her wickedness still barely managed to seep through her restraints.
Meanwhile, something flashed before Reiner’s eyes. He would never forget that it was this woman in front of him that made him pass motion all day until he almost died of dehydration!

She was shady. Nonetheless, the patient’s current circumstance compelled them to invite her over.
“Can you please show me to the patient?” Janet was straightforward, as she didn’t want to waste her time.
Instantly, Sheldon’s figure stiffened. His lips curved upward and he let out a low chuckle. “Isn’t he sitting right across from you now?”
Janet’s eyes gleamed slightly and she looked extremely wicked. “You?”
“Who else do you think it is?”
Janet held back her smile at his words. Suddenly, she seemed like a different person. “Hurry up and bring me there. Stop wasting my time!”
Noticing her blunt reaction, Sheldon gave up acting secretive. He walked past Janet to show her the way. “Over here, please!”
Janet and Lee got up from the sofa and followed him up the stairs. The corridor on the second floor was decorated with famous paintings and blue-and-white porcelain pots, which seemed to be of great value. No wonder the Fuller Family is willing to spend more than a billion to find me.
There were a lot of people standing outside one of the rooms. Janet’s phoenix eyes gleamed at the sight. If she wasn’t mistaken, the patient was inside that room. Sure enough, Sheldon brought Janet and Lee into the room.
The room was also crowded with people. Including those who were outside the room, all of them were doctors in white coats. They came from different age groups: there were younger ones, middle-aged ones, and older ones.
Someone amongst the crowd caught Janet’s attention. Fixing her eyes on that person, she found out that he was Ed Brown from the Western Medical Research Institute.
As for now, there were two major Medical Research Institutes in Markovia. One specialized in Western medicine and the other one specialized in traditional medicine. Unlike Ed, Janet was in the Traditional Medical Research Institute. It can be said that the two research institutes were quite divergent. At least both traditional medicine and Western medicine were internationally recognized as the opposite of one another in essence.
Stepping forward, Sheldon took the initiative to introduce Janet to Ed. “Dr. Brown, this is Miss Sandra.”
After he said that, everyone at the scene knitted their brows. Although the girl standing in front of them was wearing a face mask and a hat, they could still guess her age based on the way she dressed up. Her outfit was normcore, but she was probably around twenty-five years old. They had not expected that the famous Doctor Sandra was only in her twenties!
“Huh, the Divine Doctor is so young?”
“She looks like she’s only in her twenties. She’s probably been in the industry for a year or two at most!”
“That’s right. How did she become a divine doctor in such a short time?”
Unlike the others, Ed wasn’t surprised at all. He knew Sandra. He had already found out that the Fuller Family had offered Sandra a handsome price to visit a few days ago. Nevertheless, he didn’t expect Sheldon to act so quickly. Still, it was true that Old Master Fuller’s condition couldn’t be dragged on anymore. If his illness was cured by Sandra first, then Western medicine would be a big step behind traditional medicine again.
The thought of that got Ed’s nerves tensed up. Nonetheless, ALS had no cure worldwide. Thus, he also didn’t believe that traditional medicine would be able to treat the illness. Glancing at Janet, he showed no emotion and his voice was distant. “Ed Brown.”
Janet arched her brows at his reaction. “Sandra.”
The meeting between traditional medicine and Western medicine was relatively tense. In the end, Lee had to come forward and change the subject. “Mr. Fuller, can you please let Sandra take a look at Old Master Fuller’s condition?”
“Sure!” Sheldon stared at Janet before he went on, “Miss Sandra, do you need us to leave the room?”
Nodding, Janet said faintly, “Those who can’t be helpful please wait outside.”
Immediately, Sheldon dismissed the servants and the nurses in the room, leaving only a few doctors who usually took care of his father.
