Ch. 701..710
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 701
The Audi R8 Phantom Black was the most famous and most expensive brand of sports car in Markovia. It was a limited edition that was only sold once per year, and there were only three cars in the entire world. Hence, its price range was between tens of millions to hundreds of millions.
“This is Audi’s latest release. Young Master Sanders actually bought it as a gift?”
“Oh my goodness! It’s just released, which means that it must be worth more than 500 million!”
“Wow, Young Master Sanders is too generous!”
Mason was slightly taken aback before he opened his mouth. “Thank you, Young Master Sanders. I like it very much.”
Henry touched his chin and smiled. “Young Master Mason, I’m sure you and Janet will like this present very much.”
With that, Henry looked around him, searching for Janet.
As his black eyes were looking around, he froze on the spot when he saw a woman with a mask on her.
This time around, Young Master Mason didn’t bring Janet along to his birthday party? Instead, he brought a vixen?
A few days ago, there was a lot of news about them. Could it be that Janet broke up with Young Master Mason after seeing those news?
That can’t be right. If they broke up, Young Master Mason would definitely tell me!
Apart from that, Young Master Mason is not a playboy.
As Henry thought through everything quickly, he suddenly came to a realization.
Is the vixen J’Adore actually Janet?
J’Adore is Janet!
In no time, Henry knew what was going on. Just as he was about to say Janet’s name out loud, Mason—who was sitting in the main seat of the party—glared at him fiercely before he could do that.
Henry quickly covered his mouth to calm his excitement down.
After hanging out with them for so long, it was only at this moment that he realized the famous J’Adore was actually Janet’s other identity.
So… her position and power is actually even stronger than him?
F*ck!
This couple is nuts!
When Henry recalled the incident in Markovia’s casino, he could not stop trembling.
I used to say Janet is a pure lily; now, however, she looks more like a thorny black rose to me.
Mason frowned slightly. “So, what are you giving me, Young Master Moss?”
When Henry heard the familiar low voice by his ear, he finally returned to his senses. His body stiffened as he said in slight annoyance, “The rights to use a luxurious yacht.”
With that, everyone around him took a sharp breath. Meanwhile, the three people from the Davis Family immediately blanched.
“Young Master Moss is too generous!”
“A yacht costs billions, right? Wow—and he gave it to Young Master Mason just like that!”
When Magnus heard the comments around the hall, he suddenly did not know what to do next.
The presents given by the other families cost around tens and hundreds of millions, even billions. Yet, the ginseng that he prepared only cost millions. Compared to the others, it was nothing at all.
Even though it was only something that cost a few million, he spent a long time preparing it.
It was at this moment he finally realized the gap between them and the Lowry Family.
“Dad, aren’t you giving him the present we prepared? The gift ceremony is ending soon!”
“Yes, dear. Take our ginseng out quickly!” Esme agreed with Rebecca, not knowing the worry on Magnus’ mind.
“Uh…” Magnus was torn between giving the gift or not.
Seeing that more people were presenting their gifts to Mason, Rebecca panicked and grabbed the ginseng from Magnus’ hands and ran to Mason. “Young Master Mason, this is the present from the Davis Family. I hope you like it.”
With that, she even lowered her head shyly.
When Magnus heard that, his face darkened immediately.
I was planning to say a few more words to warm him up to us and hope for future cooperation. Now that Rebecca has given it to him, I can’t say anything anymore!
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 702
Rebecca is really a failure in everything!
Mason raised his head to glance at her indifferently before he spoke in a lukewarm tone. “Thank you, President Davis.”
“I’m just glad that you like it!” Magnus smiled obsequiously as he tried to suck up to Mason.
Seeing that Mason thanked them, Rebecca thought he liked the presents that they had just given him. Hence, after some quick thinking, she said, “If I’m not mistaken, there’s another person who hasn’t given you any present.”
Everyone who attended the party had already given Mason their presents; there was only one woman who did not even utter a word.
Henry lowered his head slightly as he chuckled. Then, he stared at Rebecca—who was standing opposite him—with his dark irises before he suddenly asked, “And you are?”
Seeing that Henry asked about her, Rebecca thought he was interested in her. Hence, she quickly said, “Good evening, Young Master Moss. I’m the young lady of Davis Corporation from Markovia. My name is Rebecca.”
Upon hearing that, Henry arched his eyebrows and laughed. “In that case, what has it got to do with you whether my sister-in-law gives presents or not? Who are you to her?”
Immediately, Rebecca’s perfectly maintained expression faltered slightly. Taking a deep breath, she regained her calmness.
Everyone looked at Rebecca’s ‘solo performance’ that made the atmosphere more awkward.
“Young Master Moss, that is not what I meant. It’s just that the future Lady of the Lowry Family didn’t even prepare any gifts. Isn’t this slightly inappropriate?”
It was as if she was telling them that J’Adore did not love Mason that much, which was why she did not even bother to prepare a gift for him.
Meanwhile, it was also a subtle reminder for Mason to keep an eye on J’Adore, and that he need not place too much attention on this ungrateful woman.
Janet’s slender fingers drummed on the armrest of the chair regularly before her sly gaze fell on Rebecca. With her eyes raised, she looked dangerous and cunning.
However, Rebecca merely looked straight back without retreating.
Even though she had always thought that J’Adore’s eyes looked familiar and cold, she could not afford to lose to her on the basis of the vibes they had been giving out.
Under the mask, Janet smiled. In a cold and slightly hoarse voice, she replied slowly, “Really? Do we have to show you the private presents between the both of us for your approval, Miss Davis?”
Upon hearing that, Rebecca’s face fell immediately and she looked quite embarrassed.
That b*tch actually said something so amorous in front of everyone. She’s too shameless!
Judging by her tone, perhaps Young Master Mason has already slept with her!
The more Rebecca thought about it, the angrier she got. Even though she was not a virgin, she felt disgusted that Mason had actually slept with a woman like this.
J’Adore is a fcking btch right to the core!
However, Rebecca’s anger was stuck within her—she could not get it out, nor could she swallow it down. It was only after a while that she finally spoke. “It’s just a reminder, Miss J’Adore. Since you seem to mind, I shall not bring it up again.
Upon hearing Rebecca’s words, the socialites and rich ladies around them exchanged awkward glances as they gossiped among themselves quietly.
“Is J’Adore so poor? Can’t she even afford a present?”
“Isn’t she already together with Young Master Mason? Does he not give her some money?”
“Tsk—I can’t believe this! After all, she appeared out of nowhere. I bet she can’t even afford a present.”
“I’m sure Young Master Mason must be disappointed.”
“That’s right. His true feelings have gone down the drain. Young Master Mason’s taste in choosing a girlfriend is simply too poor.”
After Mason heard their statements, he snorted out laughing.
Then, he slowly stood up from his seat and spoke indifferently, “Darling.”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 703
With that, he slowly turned around to look at the masked woman who sat in the VIP area as he spoke in a loving tone. “Darling, you know how to play the piano too. Can you please perform a piece for me?”
His low and attractive voice reached everyone’s ears.
When the socialites and rich ladies heard him addressing Janet as ‘darling’, they were so starstruck until they were at the verge of fainting.
On top of that, Young Master Mason sounds as though he is pleading with her!
He actually asked a woman for a favor?
I can’t believe this!
Then, everyone’s gaze fell on Janet, looking forward to witnessing how she would respond.
However, the masked woman merely crossed her legs leisurely, her expression nonchalant.
Upon seeing this, Rebecca smiled slightly and turned her body around as she flipped her hair. “Miss J’Adore, are you refusing to play the piano or do you not know how to play the piano at all?”
How can you expect a woman who suddenly appears out of nowhere to play the piano? Rebecca thought to herself.
Meanwhile, Janet merely smiled at her with her legs crossed.
“It’s fine if you don’t know how to play piano, lest you accuse us of giving you a hard time later on.” Janet’s smile sent sudden chills down Rebecca’s spine, as the latter thought she looked eerie and terrifying.
As soon as she spoke, the socialites and rich ladies exchanged glances with flashes of contempt.
“J’Adore is simply not good enough for Young Master Mason!”
“I know, right? She doesn’t even know how to play the piano—can you believe it? I’ve never seen such an embarrassment.”
“Tsk! Does she look like she plays the piano to you?”
“Alas, Young Master Mason must be blind to fall for a woman like her.”
Janet looked at Mason with a faint smile. Then, she winked and announced casually, “Since my man has spoken, of course I must answer to his request.”
Her words had made Mason, who was sitting in the main seat, smiled expectantly and happily.
At this moment, there was a slight commotion in the party hall. The socialites and rich ladies, especially, discussed vehemently among themselves.
“Is J’Adore really going onstage?”
“I don’t believe it; is she not afraid of embarrassing herself?”
“Is she not worried about being compared with Rebecca?”
“Tsk! She doesn’t know who Rebecca’s cousin is, does she? She is a disciple of Hilbert! How dare J’Adore compare herself to Rebecca?”
“That’s right. We can see for ourselves that Rebecca really has talent.”
“I guess she is going to make a fool of herself later on.”
“Ha! Let’s see, shall we? Soon there will be some jokes to be laughed at.”
Janet tuned out the voices and tucked her hair behind her ears. Under the lights from the stage, she looked arrogant and condescending.
Meanwhile, Rebecca had never thought that J’Adore would dare to walk onto the stage. She stood frozen to the ground for a while before returning to her senses.
Janet took over the microphone from Rebecca’s hands without even looking at her before she spoke to the audience below the stage.
“Since my man has already requested, of course I have to fulfil his wish.”
My man?
The two words had successfully ignited the anger within Rebecca. J’Adore—that fcking btch—is clearly telling everyone here that Mason belongs to her alone, and that no one should lay their eyes on him.
“Miss J’Adore, if you can’t play, just get down from the stage instead of spoiling everyone’s mood.” Rebecca laughed mockingly.
Doesn’t she know her own capabilities?
How ridiculous?
Upon hearing that, Janet merely glanced at Rebecca coldly without another word. However, her stare was icy enough to shut the latter up.
Then, she walked to the piano at the center of the hall.
When she passed Mason by, she even winked at him.
In that instant, his gaze deepened.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 704
When Janet was seated, everyone averted their gazes from Rebecca to her.
In the VIP area, Henry flicked his nose before looking at Sean. “Why didn’t you tell me that J’Adore is actually Janet?”
Looking slightly guilty, Sean replied in a low voice, “I thought you already knew about it.”
Know, my *ss! Henry almost blurted out his thoughts.
Janet had made him look at her from a different perspective again and again. She knew drawing and car-racing. Now, she was even the head of the biggest organization in Markovia. After listing down Janet’s strengths, he even felt that Mason was not good enough for her.
Suddenly, a series of crisp notes flowed and reached his ears. Stunned, Henry and Sean raised their heads and looked at Janet—who was on stage—attentively. They could see her fingers jumping about the black and white keys deftly.
The music was lively one moment and dark and emotional the next, conveying heartfelt emotions. Even though her eyes were closed, her fingers landed on the right keys with utmost precision. There was not a single error—every note was accurate.
Suddenly, someone below the stage exclaimed, “Isn’t this Liszt’s Liebestraum No.1?”
“Oh, yes! That’s the top ten world famous pieces!”
“It’s also one of the top ten most difficult pieces!”
“Wow! She can play it this well without needing to look at the score?”
“And without any mistakes?”
“Goodness, how is this possible?”
Everyone looked at J’Adore incredulously, not expecting that she could play the piano so well.
Just as everyone was starting to enjoy the music, the piece had come to an end. Then, she slowly got up and walked to the man in the main seat. “Are you satisfied?” she asked slowly.
Mason arched his eyebrows slightly and said in a low and magnetic voice, “Yes.” With that, he squeezed her hands.
When Rebecca saw this, she clenched her fists tightly and staggered back as she shook her head. “How is this possible? This cannot be happening…” she muttered to herself. This btch actually knows how to play the piano? And she could play so well, without even needing to look at the score? It took me a few months of practice to play the piece. However, J’Adore—this fcking b*tch—knows how to play it so easily? Why? Why is her musical talent better than mine? She has completely taken my limelight! I finally understand now. J’Adore is pretending that she’s weak just to defeat me. Her aim is to crush me completely without me even realizing it!
“How’s my performance, Miss Davis?” Janet deliberately sat on Mason’s thighs and wrapped her arms around his waist. A flash of joy flitted across his eyes as he tightened his hold on her slender waist.
When Rebecca saw that, blood drained from her face as she bit her lips harshly. It was only until she tasted the strong taste of her blood that she slowly released her lip.
Below the stage, Esme was also anxious to see this. She wanted to pull Rebecca from the stage so that she would not continue to embarrass herself.
However, Rebecca showed no signs of retreating. On the contrary, she even raised her head stubbornly and laughed coldly. “Even if your piano skills are better than mine, your family background is not on par with the most powerful man in Asia!” A poor woman with no background whatsoever is simply not good enough for a man in the top three families in Sandfort City!
The upper-class families cared a lot about background compatibility. She’s just a poor little bird who has no chances of becoming a phoenix! Even though my piano skills are not as good as J’Adore, I’m still the young lady of the Davis Family. My family still has hundreds of millions backing me up! Rebecca thought to herself.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 705
Upon hearing that, Janet almost burst out laughing.
When Rebecca saw J’Adore’s curled lips that seemed as though she was about to laugh, anger immediately flared up within the former.
“You—”
Just as Rebecca was about to say something, a man suddenly interrupted her from the entrance.
An usher ran to Mason and reported excitedly, “Young Master Mason, the President of Markovia is here!”
With that, everyone else took in a sharp breath. Initially, the union of the three main families of Sandfort was huge enough news for them.
However, when they heard the words ‘President of Markovia’, they were immediately mind blown.
What’s going on today?
It’s just a birthday party, yet the Lowry Family’s reputation is powerful enough to attract the President of Markovia?
Everyone was so shocked that they were unable to speak and all of them quickly turned to look behind them.
Then, they saw a tall, bespectacled man walking toward them.
At this instant, the crowd exclaimed, “The President looks so powerful!”
Following behind him were almost twenty bodyguards dressed in black. Such a grand scene was rarely seen on television.
Holding Janet’s hand, Mason walked to the President of Markovia with her in tow.
Seeing that both of them were walking toward him, the President had a polite smile on his face. “Young Master Mason!”
Mason reached out and shook his hand. “Welcome!”
Janet raised her eyes lazily with a smile on her face as her form of greeting.
The President of Markovia understood her signal and smiled understandingly at her.
On the other hand, Rebecca stared intently at the three of them, especially at Janet.
Hence, she had seen the scene just now.
J’Adore actually dares to smile at the President! How dare she seduce him!
Does she have a death wish or is she completely shameless?
“This way, please.” Knowing that the President was here to support Janet, Mason treated him very respectfully, albeit in actions or words.
The President of Markovia nodded and said in a low and polite tone, “Thank you.”
When the three of them were seated, a clear voice suddenly rang out.
The President of Markovia snapped his fingers as he ordered in a low and steady voice, “It’s time.”
Upon hearing that, a bodyguard dressed in black walked up to him and presented something that was covered in a black cloth.
The very next second, the President walked forward and lifted the cloth, revealing a paper-like material.
Everyone was curious about what was in it.
Then, with a smile on his face, the President passed the document to Mason personally. “It’s just a small gift; I hope you like it.”
Mason, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned slightly as he took the document over. “This is…?”
“I know you have the intention to expand your business in Markovia. Hence, this document is a ten-year contract for 50% of Markovia’s ammunition.”
A ten-year contract for 50% of Markovia’s ammunition?
As soon the words rang, everyone’s pupils shrunk as they froze.
Sean stared at the President dumbfoundedly before he cursed out loud on the spot.
What does a ten-year contract of ammunition mean?
Right now, a year of ammunition sales is hundreds of billions. After signing the contract, the number is multiplied by ten!
Sean did not even know how to calculate the total sum.
In a nutshell, it was an enormous number.
Looking at Sean’s stunned expression, Henry asked in confusion, “Is this an expensive present?”
He did not know much about military affairs.
Sean nodded but the words he planned to say were stuck in his throat; he could not even utter a word at this moment.
Lee shot a glance at Henry before he lifted the wine glass in front of him and took a sip. Then, he spoke in a cold and indifferent tone. “The President of Markovia has never signed a ten-year ammunition contract with anyone else.” Apart from J’Adore.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 706
On the other hand, Janet owned the other 50% for ten years.
Hence, the document that the President of Markovia brought on this day was worth much more than any other presents that Mason had received.
“No one has ever signed such a contract! Is Mason the first person?”
“Apart from J’Adore,” Lee clarified calmly.
Both Henry and Sean were speechless upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, everyone else around them had gone quiet upon hearing that.
If Young Master Mason signs this contract, it’s equivalent to him controlling half of Europe’s ammunition.
He’s already the most powerful person in Asia. Now that he controls half of Europe’s ammunition, the Lowry Group’s power will have a substantial increase.
Looking at the contract, Janet smiled, as if everything was going according to plan.
On the other hand, the trio from the Davis Family were completely stunned for a few minutes before they returned to their senses.
Looking at the man on the main seat, Rebecca’s heart thumped wildly.
Mason has an ammunition deal with Markovia! This means that he will have more power and that his money will keep on increasing!
In that instant, Rebecca suddenly felt safe and protected.
How good would it be if I’m the woman next to him?
Looking at the contract in his hands, Mason arched his eyebrows as he rose to shake hands with the President of Markovia. “Thank you.”
No businessman would let this opportunity slide, including him.
The President merely shook his head and shot a glance at the masked woman as he smiled at her. “My pleasure.”
Suddenly, Henry walked to the President of Markovia and smiled at him. “Why didn’ you tell us that you are arriving, Mr. President? We can make the necessary arrangements to welcome you.”
The President froze as he appraised the person in front of him. Within a few seconds, he realized that—if he was not mistaken—the man was the young master of the Moss Family, Henry Moss.
Hence, the President smiled and glanced around before suddenly saying, “It’s actually a last minute plan. I rushed here to support the young lady.”
With that, the people who had finally returned to their senses were once again stunned.
Support the young lady?
Which young lady?
Is he implying that he knows someone in this party today?
Apart from that, he addresses her as ‘young lady’. Does this mean they are close?
Everyone’s eyes darted around to look for the ‘culprit’.
Someone who’s known as a young lady and who’s here at the party. Could it be—
Everyone looked at Rebecca unanimously.
“Could the young lady mentioned by the President be Rebecca?”
“Goodness; it makes sense! After all, she’s from Markovia!”
“Oh gosh! Rebecca actually knows the President of Markovia personally? She’s unbelievable!”
“Dear lord, even though her piano skills aren’t as good as J’Adore, her background is simply too strong!”
“A woman like her is the perfect match for Young Master Mason!”
“Precisely! Their backgrounds match each other. What does the b*tch, J’Adore, have anyway?”
“Tsk! Rebecca has hidden herself well!”
“I want to be friends with her!”
Meanwhile, Rebecca was dumbfounded.
Are they saying that I know the President of Markovia? Why was I not informed?
She looked at the President in confusion as the praises from other people reached her ears.
Well, it doesn’t matter. Now I know him.
Hence, with a smile on her face, she straightened her back as she received the envious exclaims from the crowd.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 707
Henry listened to the voices around him and he asked calmly, “President, may I know which young woman you’re referring to?”
The President of Markovia marched forward when he heard that.
Everybody assumed that he was referring to Rebecca, so the crowd exclaimed in shock when the President of Markovia walked past her.
He did not slow down when he walked past Rebecca. On the contrary, he passed by Rebecca to stop in front of a masked girl who was standing behind her.
After that, with everybody staring at them, he introduced her to Henry, “Miss J’Adore.”
The crowd was immediately stunned to silence and the trio from the Davis Family were petrified too.
Rebecca felt a chill run down her spine and she shivered involuntarily.
Is J’Adore, the vixen, acquainted with the President of Markovia? Why does the President sound like he is on good terms with her? How could this be happening? Isn’t J’Adore a useless woman without any significant status and background? How could she possibly know the President of Markovia? Besides, the entire online community has dug around for information on her. The information can’t possibly be wrong!
Rebecca pinched her upper lip; she almost fainted out of shock.
Then, she took a few steps backward before collapsing into Esme’s arms.
Fortunately, Esme was quick on her feet and she supported Rebecca just in time. Otherwise, the latter would have ended up falling face-first onto the ground.
The banquet erupted into heated discussion. “Why is J’Adore acquainted with the President of Markovia?”
“I thought it was Rebecca who knew the President of Markovia.”
“That’s right! Rebecca did not deny it earlier, so I assumed as much.”
“Oh, d*mn! In the end, it is J’Adore—with an unknown background—who is the actual person acquainted with the President of Markovia!”
“How is that possible? Netizens have dug into her information. Isn’t she a woman with unknown background and status?”
“That’s right. They could not find anything on her. How could she possibly be acquainted with the President of Markovia? Besides, they both seem quite close.”
“Oh, d*mn! I am not dreaming, am I?”
“Let me pinch you.”
“Ouch! That hurts! It hurts! This is not a dream!”
Janet was no doubt the calmest person on site.
From the very beginning, she had been leaning against the chair lazily while maintaining the faint smile that was plastered across her face.
However, the man, who was seated at the head of the table, seemed bewildered.
Although Mason was already aware, his heart skipped a beat involuntarily when he heard the truth.
On the other hand, Henry took a few steps backward hastily as he absorbed the news. He then picked up a flute of champagne from the table and downed it in one go.
After drinking some alcohol, his mind finally cleared.
Oh my goodness! I didn’t expect Janet to be acquainted with the President of Markovia! In that case, has she been sandbagging us all along? How could I not have an inkling? Sometimes, I truly question my intelligence.
Rebecca rushed forward anxiously to grab the President’s hands. “Mr. President, are you mistaken? This is J’Adore you’re talking about!”
Look closely at her! She is the vixen J’Adore!
Rebecca was on the verge of a breakdown because everything seemed like a dream. I’ve practised the piano meticulously for months and I am this close to getting hold of the man standing in front of me. However, my efforts are about to be wasted! The b*tch has snatched everything from me! Not only is Mason in love with the vixen, even Old Madam Lowry has acknowledged her! Now, even the President of Markovia is supporting her! This isn’t fair! This isn’t fair at all…
Just as Rebecca shook her head while staring at them in disbelief, voices echoed in from outside of the entrance. They were voices of both men and women and they sounded rather firm. “She is none other than J’Adore, the head of the largest organization in Markovia. She is our Boss too! Do you have any other questions?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 708
There were two women, who wore black military uniform, leading more than twenty people behind them. They marched steadily to the center of the banquet hall.
Then, they went down on one knee and greeted her in unison, “Boss.”
Lee, who was sitting behind in the VIP area, stood up and bowed at her too.
Janet nodded while responding indifferently, “At ease.”
Upon witnessing that, the crowd cried out in surprise and they retreated backward hastily.
“Is J’Adore their boss?”
“Is J’Adore the head of the largest organization in Markovia?”
“Isn’t the MX the largest organization in Markovia?”
“Does J’Adore represent the MX?”
“Besides, I can’t believe Lee knows her!”
“Is it possible that Lee is here for J’Adore?”
Well, it’s just a slap to our faces because just moments ago, we assumed that J’Adore is an unknown woman without any significant status and background. However, we have been proven otherwise.
Rebecca and the Davis Family were still holding onto a sliver of hope before Lee bowed down to Janet. They were hoping that J’Adore hired those people to put up a show for her.
In any case, who can shed some light for us? Why is Young Master Sanders, who is from one of the three main families in Sandfort City, acquainted with her? Besides, he seems to respect her very much. Nevertheless, no information about her could be found from the internet despite spending days researching! Isn’t she just an unknown vixen?
Rebecca kept shaking her head while retreating backward. Her fingernails dug into her palms but she just couldn’t feel the pain anymore, because the stab in her heart hurt more than any physical pain that she was experiencing.
She stared unblinkingly at the masked girl on the stage. Then, she tightened her grip around her bag. The only way I can redeem myself is by using that drug.
Janet clapped her hand and everybody heard the sounds of car honks.
The car door swung open and a group of bodyguards rushed out from the car.
They were all holding something and everyone had a different item.
There were ten bodyguards in total, and each of them held something different.
After that, the bodyguards opened the box in their hands. The first box had clusters of thousand-year Saussurea Involucratas, whereas the second had a few thousand-year Ginsengs.
The crowd exclaimed in surprise when they saw the items in front of them, “How is this possible? How could she possibly have so many thousand-year Saussurea Involucratas?”
“Isn’t thousand-year Saussurea Involucratas about to be extinct? Why does she have so many of those?”
“That is right. Currently, in the world, I heard that there are a few stalks remaining at Markovia’s Traditional Medicine Research Institute. Why does she have them all?”
“Same goes to the thousand-year Ginsengs! I can’t believe she is giving away a large box of those.”
“Exactly! The Davis Family only presented a stalk. They pale in comparison, to be honest.”
The crowd was wide-eyed as they watched the events unfold before them. They were in disbelief when Janet walked to the front of the bodyguards. Then, she took the items and placed them in front of Old Madam Lowry. “This is for you, Old Madam Lowry,” she said quietly.
A trace of delight flashed in Old Madam Lowry’s eyes when she heard that. “Thank you, my granddaughter-in-law.”
Meanwhile, Magnus kept his head bowed down while blushing furiously.
On the other hand, Rebecca clenched her fists tightly and she gritted her teeth uncontrollably. It turns out this is how J’Adore, the little btch, buys Old Madam Lowry over. No wonder Old Madam Lowry acknowledges her status. J’Adore, you btch! You are shameless!
Soon, there were all types of rare treasures. In fact, there were different types of precious gemstones, all of which were limited edition and top-notch.
Janet placed her hands on her hips lazily while she explained casually, “I wasn’t sure of the right gift, so I am giving these presents randomly.”
The crowd was dumbfounded when they heard her. Did she say that she’s giving these presents randomly? D*mn it! These are all limited edition items! It is almost impossible to buy them even if you have the money!
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 709
In the end, Janet personally opened the last box and took it to the man. There was a necklace nestled within the box and there were some indecipherable words carved on said necklace.
Lara and Desire’s breaths caught and they exchanged looks with each other. “Is Boss really giving that out?” Has Boss decided on this man?
Mason arched a brow questioningly and he pulled Janet into his arms. “Tell me—what is this?” he asked quietly.
Janet cocked a brow at him and she flashed him a charming smile. Just when she was about to answer him, a voice rang out from the crowd. “Isn’t that Bossaro’s necklace?”
“Bossaro? What does that mean?”
“By wearing the necklace, it means that the man is allowed to only fall for one woman. If a mistress or lover were to show up in his life, members of the MX would hunt him down with all means and chop his head off.”
“What? What kind of rule is that?”
“How can the most powerful person in Asia agree to that?”
Bossaro’s were entirely custom made and the alphabets carved were the man’s Indonesian name.
This type of necklace represented purity and once the man wore the necklace, it meant that he agreed to cut off communication with other women altogether; in fact, no other women or lovers would be allowed to approach him.
“Will you wear this?” Janet smiled at him especially seductively.
The young socialites and wealthy women were shocked when they heard that and they secretly prayed that Mason would reject Janet.
If he puts on the necklace, it means that we do not stand a chance anymore.
Rebecca bit her lip hard while clasping her hands tightly together. If what they say is true, then there’s no chance for me to be Mason’s lover. I can only pray for him not to put on the necklace right now. Please don’t… Please don’t destroy my last shred of hope.
On the other hand, Old Madam Lowry was feeling anxious. Well, my granddaughter-in-law is indirectly proposing to him. Why is the b*stard hesitating?
Mason laughed. “Come here,” he drawled. “Help me put it on.”
Upon hearing that, the young socialites and wealthy women present stiffened straight away.
That woman has the most powerful person in Asia wrapped around her finger! Is it worth it for him to give up endless options just for a woman?
And so, Janet reached out to put the necklace around Mason’s neck leisurely.
The color drained from Rebecca’s face when she saw the couple’s public displays of affection on the stage; she felt as though she was about to lose her mind.
Has she become Mason’s woman? If she ends up with him, she will rise above everybody! I now understand everything! The vixen, J’Adore, has snatched away everything from me! I hate her!
After a few minutes, Rebecca ran to the banquet’s restroom with her bag, her silhouette looking especially miserable.
Just as she arrived at the restroom, she heard footsteps behind her.
Rebecca recognized the footsteps straight away.
Hence, she turned around to bury her face in the person’s embrace. “Mom!” She sobbed.
Esme patted Rebecca’s back to console her.
In all honesty, I feel horrible too. After all, I spent a few million on the gift. Furthermore, I did not receive anything in return after giving away a Thousand-year Ginseng and my son-in-law has just been robbed of me before my very eyes. How can I possibly be alright with that?
“Mom.” Rebecca looked up slowly. Her eyes were bloodshot and she wore a vicious expression. “It seems like I have no choice but to use this.”
Esme remained quiet for a few seconds when she heard that.
After a pause, she finally broke the silence with a cruel tone. “Rebecca, you have to be careful. I will always support you.”
Hearing that, Rebecca gritted her teeth in determination. She squinted menacingly and a trace of cruelty flashed across her gaze. “J’Adore, my dear J’Adore! You must not blame me!”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 710
Esme looked up at Rebecca at the mention of J’Adore’s name. “Are you planning on making a move on J’Adore?”
Rebecca smirked ruthlessly and openly. “That’s right.”
I am sure Mason wouldn’t want J’Adore if she were to sleep with another man after she has been drugged. In that case, Mason will belong to me tonight… Many men will be lusting over the vixen anyway. After making up her mind, Rebecca took her phone out and made a phone call to a man named Harrison.
“Harrison, gather a few virile young men to the five-star The Palace Hotel. The woman is a beauty! She’s a flirt too, so I am sure that you’d be happy with her.”
“Are you referring to the five-star hotel, The Palace Hotel? I cannot possibly get in!” Everybody in Sandfort City knew that the Lowry Family was having a birthday party in the hotel. Hence, nobody would be able to enter without an invitation.
Rebecca answered while chuckling in delight, “Don’t worry about that. You can enter after the party.” I have already planned this beforehand. Since J’Adore yearns for a man, I don’t mind sending a few virile men her way to satisfy her needs.
Then, she heard an eerie cackle over the phone.
After hanging up on the call, Rebecca inhaled deeply while smiling in satisfaction.
Esme frowned in confusion and she asked, “Rebecca, don’t you have men present at the banquet? What would you do if somebody finds out that you were in contact with outsiders?”
“It would be too easy for her if I were to choose somebody from the banquet.” The men at the party are either rich or powerful. Furthermore, they would not have the courage to make a move on J’Adore due to her status. However, the hooligans outside have bedded countless women, so they are the best candidates for a b*tch like J’Adore. I am confident that Mason wouldn’t love J’Adore once she has been tainted. Even if he does, the Lowry Family would never accept her. This is especially true for someone as traditional as Old Madam Lowry—she would never accept her. Ha! I find it funny whenever I imagine J’Adore being chased out of the door. She will be kicked out of the Lowry Family like rejected goods.
After listening to her explanation, Esme thought that Rebecca made sense. “Rebecca, please be careful.”
If somebody finds out about this, she will end up in prison!
Naturally, Rebecca knew about the pros and cons of her methods but she nodded anyway. “I know.” However, I am not foolish. I won’t do anything that will expose myself.
The banquet continued on the other side of the door.
It was ten in the night, just in time for some drinks and chats.
Janet was sitting in a corner. Although many men at the banquet were hoping to chat her up, nobody had the courage to get involved with her since she was now the woman of the most powerful person in Asia.
Meanwhile, Rebecca observed the server, who was serving beverages, from a corner. She wanted to know which server would make their way in J’Adore’s direction.
Suddenly, a figure caught Rebecca’s attention.
She noticed one of the servers wasn’t holding a bottle of wine; instead, she had a glass of cooled water.
Such a special request?
Rebecca considered the possibilities. She must have a significant status to be able to command a server in a banquet to specially prepare a glass of cooled water for her. In any case, it’s not out of the ordinary to not drink liquor since J’Adore is a woman. The most important thing is that she doesn’t have any beverage in front of her right now.
Therefore, Rebecca took a chance by taking out the drug bottle from her bag. After that, she took out a white pill by hiding it with her fingernail.
Before that, Esme had reminded Rebecca that a single pill carried the largest dosage of the drug. With just one pill, the victim would no doubt turn into a woman of loose morals.
After hiding the pill with the help of her fingernail, Rebecca walked to the front of the server casually. “I want this glass of water,” she stated deliberately.
The server recognized her as she performed on stage earlier. However, the server shook her head while rejecting Rebecca politely, “I am so sorry, but this is specifically for Miss J’Adore.”
