Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 811
“No way! Am I dreaming?”
“It turns out that what Janet was saying is true… B-But… shouldn’t Rose be quite old?”
“No wonder Janet gave more than 30 copies of ‘Warm Blade’ to Class F of Star High School when the book sold out!”
“I recall they were signed copies too!”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“That can’t be! How can there be such special treatment?!”
He came because of Rose? Theo was frozen in place. He felt a chill running down his back, and his palms oozed with cold sweat. His head was completely blank from the shock. In other words… this girl standing in front of me is really Rose! Janet really is Rose?! He felt dizzy. For a moment, he couldn’t comprehend the shocking events taking place. Eric also mentioned that he wouldn’t have come unless it was for Rose. Why is he so partial to her?
Meanwhile, Eric glanced at the man sitting in the main seat, which was none other than Robert. Smiling, he faintly said, “What was that I heard about plagiarism and imitating Rose’s handwriting? I don’t understand what is going on!”
Upon hearing those words, Madelaine and Hazel lowered their heads and pursed their lips. They looked very embarrassed.
Janet lifted her eyes, revealing a chilly gaze. She smilingly explained, “I got full marks on my essay during my test. So, some people were upset with me and accused my writing style to be an imitation of Rose’s works. Old Man Lawson, what do you think?”
“How can it be plagiarism when it’s your own writing style?” At the moment, Eric was cooperatively playing along with Janet. They complemented each other very well.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryRobert finally came back to his senses after hearing those words. He sighed, feeling like he just had a close call with danger. “It’s just a case of misunderstanding. Right now, we have confirmed that Miss Jackson is Rose herself. Thus, this misunderstanding has naturally been resolved.” As he spoke, he fixed his gaze on Janet. “Right, Miss Jackson?”
He was at his limit; he couldn’t take any more of the surprises that came at him, one after another. He felt as if he was about to have a heart attack. Therefore, all he wanted was for Janet to reply with a ‘yes’.
Contrary to his expectations, Janet looked up with a gaze as cold as ice. It was as dark as a bottomless pit. “A misunderstanding? The misunderstanding has been resolved?” She smilingly shook her head. “The misunderstanding might have been resolved, but that doesn’t mean things will end so easily!”
Madelaine thinks that I’m an easy target. I’ve forgiven her, time and time again. Yet, she continues to pick a fight with me, over and over again. On the other hand, Hazel is a stupid pig. She is no different from a wooden string puppet. She is simply being controlled by Emily and Madelaine.
Robert moved his lips soundlessly. He seemed afraid to upset her as he cautiously asked, “Miss Jackson, what do you plan to do?”
She leisurely walked over and stopped in front of Hazel and Madelaine with a smile. “You are very good at posting online, aren’t you? It must have taken quite a lot of effort too.”
Hazel and Madelaine both clenched their fists tightly at the same time while looking away guiltily.
“If you think you can get off easily after posting so many slanderous posts accusing me of plagiarism, you must be dreaming!” Janet’s voice was frosty and evil. Moreover, she greatly emphasized the words ‘you must be dreaming’.
Madelaine and Hazel were so frightened by Janet’s words that they took half a step back in fear. Meanwhile, Hazel gripped the hem of her skirt tightly and glared at Janet furiously. Even my brother has never been so fierce to me. What right does Janet have to pull such an attitude on me? Besides, even if Madelaine and I made an error of judgment and wrongly accused her of plagiarism, won’t it be fixed if we just deleted those posts? Why is she refusing to forgive us? Can she achieve success if she is always so petty?
At present, nobody said anything. Thus, the atmosphere in the office was at its heaviest. Then, Janet’s black eyes shifted toward Robert, who was sitting in the main seat. The corners of her mouth curved upward in a wicked arc. “Mr. Goldstein, don’t you think they owe me an apology?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 812
Robert was shocked when he heard that. He looked at Janet and nodded. “Indeed. This has affected you badly, Miss Jackson. Miss Fuller and Miss Yates ought to apologize to you.”
Upon hearing that, both Hazel and Madelaine looked at Janet simultaneously.
She wants us to apologize? Is Janet crazy?
Wasn’t it just an insult to Hazel, the little princess of Yobril’s National Council, to have to apologize to a liar?
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryIf the people in Yobril found out that she apologized to a liar, how much shame would it bring her?
Would she still be able to return to Yobril?
“This request…” Clenching her fists tightly, Hazel spat, “This request is simply unreasonable.”
Janet chuckled. Her arched eyebrows gave her a sinister look as she glanced over at Hazel. “Unreasonable? Then apologize to me in front of everyone now. You also have to pin your apology post up for thirty days. Make it public!”
Hazel’s facial expression changed in an instant. On top of giving her an apology, she even wants me to make an apology post on the online forum and keep it pinned for thirty days? Thirty days? What sort of idea is that? It was a whole month. Why should she, the little princess of Yobril’s National Council, apologize to a liar for thirty days? Janet Jackson is out of her mind.
Hazel squeezed both hands so tightly that she had lost feeling in her palms.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMeanwhile, Janet was standing sloppily as she waited for an answer.
It was as if she was not going to leave until Hazel and Madelaine answered her.
Even though they were standing in the middle of the office, the cold draft had reached the corners of the room and made everyone who was present feel suffocated.
Robert stole a quick glance at Janet. She’s not one to be messed with! Neither is the Lowry Family who has her back!
Previously, both the Shields Family and the Leonard Family were destroyed by them. The same fate would befall Yobril.
If Janet wanted to ruin Yobril, she could do so whenever she wanted to.
After all, J’Adore also held power throughout Europe.
Robert turned his gaze to Hazel and Madelaine. “You two. Write a thousand-word apology letter and put it on Woodsbury University’s online forum. You will only be allowed to take it down after a month.”
Madelaine hesitated for a few seconds but eventually nodded in agreement.
She knew she could not outdo Janet with her family background and power. Knowing when to back away in times of difficulty was also a wise act.
On the other hand, Hazel could not accept it. After dawdling for a while, she was still not willing to agree.
Janet looked at her blatantly and saw right through her. She joked, “A thousand words gives your imagination a lot of room to run free.”
Although she said that as a joke, everyone found it especially terrifying.
Eric rubbed his arm and said, “We have to go, Rose.”
“Go where?” Janet treated the principal’s office as her own place, sitting with her legs crossed on the couch. “Old Man Lawson, do you really want me to go to The Tenth Writers Association with you?”
The students that had gathered outside the principal’s office were all shocked by what they heard and were unable to speak.
A while later, someone finally spoke. “F*ck. Secretary Lawson personally came to invite Janet!”
“F*ck. Who else would get this honor except for Janet?”
“Tsk, tsk. This is simply shocking! It must be the first time in history!”
At this moment, Eric did not try to conceal anything either and went on, “Just as everyone has said, even if I have to kidnap you, I will take you there today. I even delayed the meeting just for you. Right now, over a thousand authors and committee members are all waiting just for you. If you don’t show up, who is going to become the next chairperson of the Writers Association?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 813
The banter between the two left everyone both inside and outside the office in shock.
While Hazel was listening to their conversation, she had her fists clenched so tightly that her nails were digging into the palm of her hands. Even Secretary Lawson of the great Sandfort City is pleading with Janet? How is she worth all this respect she’s receiving from everyone? Although she is a good author, she has a lousy character. No amount of talent can make up for that!
Meanwhile, Madelaine was unable to comprehend the situation and only kept her head lowered while biting down on her lip. She was stunned by how high and mighty Janet was now that even the daughter of the president of Yobril’s National Council could not win over her. Who else could defeat her now? Emily might be the only one left.
The people outside the office expressed their shock.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Tsk, tsk. As someone with such strong principles, Eric even delayed the event for Janet? What is happening?”
“F*ck. That means that as long as Janet doesn’t show up, the hundreds of authors and committee members are just going to be dawdling away?”
“Oh, sh*t. But there are hundreds of authors there. Are they all just waiting for Janet?”
“Mr. Lawson is saying that he wants her to take over as chairperson for The Tenth Writers Association, isn’t he?”
“That can’t be. All this time, the chairperson of the association was always older artists in their forties or fifties. Don’t tell me he’s going to break the custom for Janet this time?
“What? I didn’t hear that clearly. The chairperson of The Tenth Writers Association?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryEric did not avoid the topic. He was blunt and biased as he said, “Yes, Rose has to be the next chairperson of the Writers Association.”
Janet raised her eyebrows. Knowing that she was unable to hide from it, she said, “You’ve witnessed this yourself, Mr. Goldstein. I won’t be able to attend class for today.”
Robert pushed his glasses up. “You may go.”
After he said that, Janet looked sideways and raised a brow at Eric. “Are we still not leaving yet, Old Man Lawson?”
Eric nodded with a smile. Before he turned around, he swept his eyes over Hazel and Madelaine coldly.
Madelaine kept her head down and did not dare to meet his eyes, but Hazel had her fists clenched and was gritting her teeth with a menacing look on her face.
After letting out a light scoff, he followed Janet at her heels.
Watching them walk out one after the other from the back, Hazel stomped her foot aggressively and almost broke into tears from the rage.
Throughout her life, no one had ever dared to push her around this way before. She never thought that she would be put in her place by Janet today.
She wanted more than anything to leap at Janet now and rip off the hypocritical look on her face.
This was impossible for her to bear!
Meanwhile, at the Lowry Family Conglomerate, a man was sitting at his office table with Reddit opened on his screen.
He had kept a portion of the negative posts under control.
Rubbing his brows in frustration, he wondered how Janet was handling the situation.
Just then, a few knocks came from outside.
He looked up at the big door and said, “Come in.”
Sean pushed the door open and came inside. Coming forward, he said respectfully, “Young Master Mason, Mr. Goldstein called to inform you that Miss Jackson has dealt with the matter at hand, so you don’t have to worry.”
Upon hearing that, the deep crease between his brows relaxed a little.
“That’s good.” Jan is becoming more efficient at getting things done.
Sean glanced up at him and added, “Mr. Goldstein also said that Miss Jackson has gone to The Tenth Writers Association Meeting.”
“The Tenth Writers Association Meeting?”
“Yes. She was also nominated for some chairperson position. It sounds quite honorable.”
“Okay, I got it.” The man turned off his screen and sighed. She is truly becoming more outstanding and a little too good for me.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 814
In Yobril, Emily was waiting to hear good news from Hazel and Madelaine with her phone in her hand. If my guess is right, Janet must have gotten expelled by Mr. Goldstein by now.
After pondering for a moment, she brought up her phone and gave Megan a call. “Mom,” she called obediently. She was known all over Sandfort City now, so Megan treated her even better.
As soon as Megan picked up, she was both taken aback and pleasantly surprised. “Emily, what’s the matter?”
Emily giggled. “Mom, can’t I call even if nothing is wrong?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMegan laughed. “Of course, you can. I missed you so much. Did Hilbert tell you when you can come back to Sandfort City?”
She thought for a moment then said, “The World Piano Competition is coming up soon. I can go home when it ends.” This major competition was very important to her. It was also the main reason she went to Yobril to study piano. As long as she won the trophy, her value would shoot up. She would then be able to break through the music industry and gain a foothold as a pianist. Thus, she had to win this trophy.
“World Piano Competition?” Megan marveled. “It must be very important.”
Nodding, Emily boasted, “Mr. Hilbert says that with my current level, I’ll probably be able to get top three, but my goal is to be the champion.”
“You’re doing a fantastic job, Emily. I knew I wasn’t wrong about you.” Megan felt extremely excited. If Emily was truly able to become the overall champion of this global competition, the entire Jackson Family, and not just herself, would gain high prestige in the art circles.
Emily chuckled bashfully then said, “Mom, stop flattering me. No matter how skilled I am, I still can’t beat Janet!” She then pretended to show concern for her sister. “How is Janet doing these days? I miss her.”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThe mention of Janet made Megan hesitate for a few seconds. Ever since Janet moved out, she only came back once when Jade returned from her trip. Nonetheless, Janet was an independent girl. The money Megan sent to her was always returned in full.
“Your sister? She’s doing quite well.”
Emily was slightly taken aback. Based on her tone of voice, it did not sound like she hated Janet as much as she used to anymore.
Ever since Janet got perfect scores on her college entrance exams and became the top scholar, Megan’s attitude toward her improved drastically, but that was exactly what Emily feared the most. She feared that once Brian retired, the Jackson Enterprise would be passed to Janet, his biological daughter.
For Emily, did that imply that she would no longer be able to stay in the Jackson Family? Feeling anxious all of a sudden, she immediately blurted, “Mom, Janet got a perfect score on an assessment again recently.”
Megan hesitated briefly but quickly regained her composure. “Well, it’s quite normal for her.” After all, she did enter Woodsbury University with perfect scores on her college entrance exams. Attaining a perfect score on an assessment was hardly unexpected.
The calmer Megan sounded, the more frantic Emily became. “But it seems like she got into a bit of trouble this time. A friend of mine from Woodsbury University told me she plagiarized Lady Rose’s novel in her paper during the recent assessment. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it wouldn’t be strange even if she did. Since she got perfect scores on her college entrance exams, it would be awkward if she didn’t get a perfect score again this time.”
Megan was quite reactive. As soon as she heard the word ‘plagiarized’, the smile on her face stiffened, and her voice fell. “Plagiarized? That’s not possible. She was a top scholar with perfect scores on the college entrance exams. She is capable enough.”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 815
Emily narrowed her eyes upon hearing Megan defend Janet. “I don’t know, but I heard she got called into the principal’s office today. The details of the outcome are not known yet. Mommy, keep an eye on the university’s online forum; the outcome will be released there.”
Mr. Goldstein is also involved now? Feeling shocked, Megan clenched her fists as a conditioned reflex. “Okay. I got it,” she answered. She did not think too deeply about how Emily knew Janet’s every move, but she did not have any definite answers to the validity of the matter at hand either.
If Janet actually plagiarized the work of that author called Rose and got expelled by Robert, then our family’s reputation would be ruined.
At that moment, she could only hope that what Emily told her was false!
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryAt the same time, news that Eric delayed the event quickly became the most trending topic on Twitter.
‘Eric Lawson personally halted The Tenth Writers Association Meeting!’
‘Why did Eric Lawson show up at Woodsbury University?’
‘Eric Lawson extended a personal invitation for Rose to join the meeting!’
‘Inside information stated that Eric wanted to nominate Rose as the chairperson of The Tenth Writers Association!’
Before Janet and Eric even made it to the venue, the news had already spread to the public.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMoreover, the number of authors that were there went from being in the hundreds to over a thousand.
Their purpose was simple: to see Rose’s real appearance with their own eyes!
Meanwhile, after Megan hung up the call, she downloaded Reddit according to Emily’s instructions and entered Woodsbury University’s forum.
Initially, she only wanted to take a look at the school’s final decision, but Reddit also sent her a notification of the live broadcast from the venue of the meeting.
Filled with curiosity, she tapped into it.
At that moment, the online live broadcast had already started.
She only saw Eric go on stage and say into the microphone, “The meeting will officially begin now.”
After that, a thunder of applause resounded below the stage.
Eric’s expression was serious and stern. “As usual, raise your hand if you have a problem.”
As soon as he said that, the dull meeting immediately buzzed to life.
Some people raised their hands and stood up, but Eric randomly picked a committee member who was participating in the meeting.
“Secretary Lawson, I wanted to ask you about something. I heard you intentionally halted this meeting to personally invite Rose. Is that right? But Rose wasn’t participating in the run for the chair of The Tenth Writers Association, right? If she comes here so suddenly to join in the election, wouldn’t it be unfair to the rest of us?”
“The chairperson of The Tenth Writers Association in my heart is Rose. I don’t have a second person in mind. Previously, I did not know about her whereabouts so I had no way of forcing her to run for chairperson, but I happened to find out this morning that she was studying at Woodsbury University. I decided I was going to bring her here no matter what. Regarding the issue of fairness that you mentioned, it is definitely fair. After all, you have all used your capabilities to be in the running for chairperson. The official chairperson for The Tenth Writers Association has not been finalized yet. What difference does it make to add one more person? If the people here are better than Rose, then why should they be afraid of her?” When he finished talking, he looked below the stage at a girl in a black long-sleeve shirt and a black cap.
The video cameras at the venue captured his gaze and immediately focused on the girl below the stage.
The girl looked sluggish as she sat with her legs crossed and her fair hand supporting her temple.
Megan was stunned when she saw that scene on her phone.
The girl did not look old. She was probably in her early twenties. Her eyes were covered by her black cap, but her small and delicate lips gave Megan a sense of familiarity.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 816
Megan had to admit: that girl looked a lot like Janet.
If it really was Janet, how did she end up participating in that meeting?
Thinking that it was absurd, she quickly shook her head.
Not long after, the camera cut to Eric once again.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“If no one has any more questions, I will announce the start of the election.”
A round of applause sounded below the stage.
Eric walked down and sat beside the council which was also next to Janet.
Following the start of the election, the committee members started to go on stage to vote.
While Eric was beside Janet, he murmured with his hand over his mouth, “Do you think you have a high chance of winning?”
She shrugged. “Are you talking about the voter turnout?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryHe nodded and chuckled. “With how well ‘Warm Blade II’ is doing right now, there’s no way you would lose.”
She seemed helpless. “You already know I don’t want to win.” If she won, she had to go on stage and take photos which would expose her.
“What you want is not important.” He smirked. “The point is I would feel uneasy if the title of chairperson went to someone else.”
Tsk. She leaned against her chair in frustration. This crafty old man!
Aside from Janet and Eric’s calm demeanor, the rest of the place, both on and off stage, was bustling with activity.
A total of ten authors participated in the election this time. All of them were elderly artists who had their own distinct styles and were skilled writers. According to the past selection criteria, the chairperson for the association would be among them.
More than half the votes had been cast, but Janet was way ahead in the lead.
From below the stage, the voices of committee members and other authors continued to pour in.
“I have to say; the winner this time will be Rose.”
“You’re right. The book, ‘Warm Blade II’, she released a few days ago is even more exciting than the first one.”
“I must admit; even though she doesn’t have a lot of publications, she releases fine works every year. Each book is a bestseller. It’s just a bit disappointing that she only releases one book a year.”
“Hey, I heard that she’s already at an old age and isn’t able to write anymore. One book a year is already pretty fast.”
“What? She isn’t able to write anymore? She must probably be an old granny in her seventies or eighties.”
“But didn’t Secretary Lawson go to Woodsbury University to invite her? How can she be an old granny?”
“Oh, those are just rumors. Her writing is so refined. How can she be that young?”
“Huh. That does sound quite reasonable!”
“We shall see in a bit!”
Eric couldn’t help but laugh to himself as he listened to their conversation.
On the other hand, Janet remained quiet beside him.
The Tenth Writers Association Meeting was now in full swing.
Meanwhile, Emily was trying endlessly to call Hazel but no one was picking up.
She kept traipsing about anxiously.
Right now, she was looking forward to hearing news about Janet’s expulsion from school and could not wait another second longer.
After waiting for almost an hour, she was finally able to get to Hazel and put her mind at ease.
In high spirits, she asked, “Hazel? How did it go? Did the principal take disciplinary action?”
Rubbing her hands together, Hazel affirmed while biting down on her lip, “Mm-hmm.”
Emily became overjoyed in an instant. Janet, that wench, is finally being punished! The one hour she waited had not been in vain.
Because she was so excited, she missed the disappointment in Hazel’s voice. She was about to ask about the type of disciplinary action the principal had taken when Hazel cut her right off.
“He did take disciplinary action, but against me and Madelaine!”
Emily’s brows quickly furrowed together in confusion. “What? You and Madelaine are being punished? What about Janet?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 817
Hearing Janet’s name being brought up made Hazel furious. She ranted, “Janet is the real Rose. Rose is Janet. Do you get it now?” Once she finished speaking, she immediately massaged her small hand pathetically. After spending an hour writing a thousand-word self-reflecting letter, her hand felt like it was about to fall off.
When Emily heard those words, she chuckled while shaking her head. How is that possible? Hazel is quite the jokester now! Janet is the real Rose? Rose is Janet? What kind of joke is that? It’s not funny at all! I won’t fall for that! “Stop teasing me, Hazel. How can she be Rose?” Emily laughed. Her expression turned dark soon after.
“Why would I lie to you? Even Eric Lawson, the person who is running The Tenth Writers Association, came to Woodsbury University to escort her. It already proves that she’s Rose. Also, she’s now at The Tenth Writers Association running for chairperson!” Hazel seethed.
Emily kept clenching her fists tighter at every word Hazel said. Eventually, both her hands were tightly clenched and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. Eric Lawson went to Woodsbury University himself to escort Janet to the Writers Association? And she’s even running for chairperson? She scoffed. That can’t be true! Shaking her head, she smirked. Her originally fiery gaze turned hollow and weak.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Are you still there?” Hazel massaged her hand. It was so sore that it was hard for her to hold the phone properly. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll contact you later—”
Before she finished speaking, the line got cut off.
Clearly, Emily had hung up the phone already.
Gritting her teeth, Hazel went back to the classroom while massaging her hand. I have to tell Sheldon about this. I can’t stand Janet anymore!
Meanwhile, after Emily hung up the phone, she opened Twitter with her stiff hands and followed the prompts to enter The Tenth Writers Association Meeting’s live broadcast.
At the same time, the voting at The Tenth Writers Association Meeting had ended. Staff members were currently counting the final votes backstage.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryEric looked confident. “You should be going on stage in a bit.”
Janet smirked unenthusiastically. “Are you that sure it’s going to be me?”
He covered his mouth as he chuckled. “If it isn’t you, then someone must have meddled with the votes.”
“Alright.” She crossed her legs and pushed her hair back. “Go on stage in my place later. I don’t want to be in the limelight!”
He smiled without saying anything; he did not want to agree.
Among the staff members backstage, one of them joked, “Do we still need to keep counting? Rose is surely going to win!”
Someone chimed in, “Exactly. Since she’s in the running, it’s a no-brainer that she would have the most votes.”
“Hahaha! Many of the authors here are fans of Rose as well!”
“If she doesn’t win, everyone will surely think the votes have been messed with.”
They talked as they counted the votes.
After counting precisely for several minutes, they handed the figures to the host who passed them on to Eric to make the announcement.
Before Eric went on stage, he said, “Rose, you should go on stage later.”
She shook her head reluctantly with a smile.
Once on stage, he took the draft from the host’s hands. The moment he looked at the vote count, his narrowed eyes widened faintly.
Slowly, his face turned white, and he struggled to breathe.
His facial expression showed his bewilderment. This is impossible!
When the audience saw him, they started to whisper among themselves. “Why does Secretary Lawson have that look on his face?”
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 818
“Don’t tell me he’s upset?”
“Did Rose lose?”
“Judging by the look on his face, that seems highly likely!”
“No way. Who could beat Rose in this election?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryWhile Eric was holding the draft, his hands shook uncontrollably. It left everyone in the audience and those who were watching the live broadcast dumbfounded.
He only recovered from his shock after some time. Squinting his black eyes under his glasses, he started to move his lips to speak. In a trembling voice, he said, “The chairperson of The Tenth Writers Association Meeting is here! Let us congratulate Rose for winning the election with ninety-five percent of the votes. She has received the most votes as chairperson of the Writers Association in history!”
Soon after it was revealed, the audience broke into an uproar.
“What? Ninety-five percent of the votes?”
“Did I hear that right? Among ten people, she got ninety-five percent of all the votes?”
“Sh*t. How is that possible?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“The highest record in the past is fifteen, but she got ninety-five?”
That meant that among a hundred people, ninety-five of them supported Rose.
Megan, who was currently watching the live broadcast, did not know the significance of the Writer Association’s chairperson position, but she was still shocked when she heard about the ninety-five percent win.
This Rose person is quite extraordinary! Even though Janet is a top scholar in the college entrance exams and has attained a perfect score in languages before, Rose is an artist; it’s not uncommon for her work to get plagiarized. Was everything Emily said true then? Her face fell slightly as she kept her attention on the live broadcast that was playing on her phone.
All the way in Yobril, Emily had witnessed everything. Despite having a slight smirk on her face, her expression was grim. The look on her face showed that she was feeling conflicted. This person who won ninety-five percent of the vote is Janet? She chuckled. How far is Hazel planning to take this joke?
They were all getting fooled. How could someone like Janet be Rose? How could she be the chairperson of The Tenth Writers Association? It was a joke!
As she watched the live broadcast on her screen, she told herself repeatedly that Janet could not be Rose, and that Rose could not be Janet either.
At the moment, the Writers Association was in an uproar. It was a lively scene that had never been seen before in history.
Standing on stage, Eric held the microphone and said, “Now, I would like to invite Rose on stage.”
Another deafening round of applause followed.
Below the stage, Janet opened her eyes lazily and looked at the old man on stage with a helpless expression.
Because no one knew who Rose was, they could only look around at each other’s reactions.
Janet slowly stood up with her cap on. In an instant, the camera focused on her and so did everyone else.
Due to her youthful appearance, they all looked at her in astonishment.
“Why did this girl stand up?”
“Could she be Rose?”
“That’s not possible. Rose can’t even write anymore. How can she be so young?”
“Yes, Rose is already in her seventies. This girl looks like she’s around twenty at most.”
Turning a deaf ear to them, Janet walked away from her seat and went up the stage.
Hundreds of cameras pointed toward her at the same time.
Once she made it to Eric’s side, she accepted the microphone that he had handed to her.
Holding the microphone in her hand, she stood in a lazy stance with her cap still on. The audience could not see her face clearly, but they were able to see a pair of pink lips. “Hello, everyone. I’m Rose.”
Her chilly and indifferent voice flew straight into the ears of the audience below the stage and those watching the live broadcast. It was easily recognizable and sounded incredibly young.
Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 819
“How can this be? Rose can’t possibly be this young. Did you come here in her stead?”
“Sh*t. Why aren’t you saying anything, Secretary Lawson, is that really her?”
“But if she’s only a young woman in her twenties, how can her writing be so refined?”
“Could it be that Rose has passed away and now they’ve just found some random person to take her place?”
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryEric smirked. Taking the microphone from the girl’s hand, he said in a stern and serious voice, “She is indeed Rose, but she doesn’t want to reveal her face today. We ask for your understanding.
At the Jackson Residence, Megan felt her hands and feet go cold as she watched the girl who called herself Rose walk up the stage.
The silhouette, dainty mouth, and voice all showed that there was a high chance it was Janet.
They look too alike! If this really is Janet, does that mean that Janet did not plagiarize Rose? Because she is Rose! Aside from feeling nervous at this moment, Megan also felt a strange sense of excitement.
She only wished she had a pair of x-ray glasses that could allow her to see the girl’s face underneath the cap.
In Yobril, Emily was glaring at the girl on stage with the cap on and a microphone in her hand. Her nails were digging into her palm as she clenched her fists, but she could no longer feel the pain.
Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryAll she could feel now was unease. That can’t be Janet. That can’t be her.
Even though they had a very similar silhouette and voice, it could be a mere coincidence.
If Janet really was Rose, how else could Emily contend with her?
No! This must not be true!
Her eyelids were twitching uncontrollably. For some reason, she had a bad feeling.
The audience at the scene was also on the edge of their seats.
If Rose was not going to reveal her face, then was there still a need for them to be there?
“This is pointless then. Why doesn’t she want to reveal her face? We came here for nothing!”
“Is she really the rumored old lady in her seventies? Why on earth was there such a rumor?”
“Could she be so ugly that she’s afraid she might lose fans?”
“That’s nonsense. We’re all fans because of her talent, not her appearance! Even if she looks like an ugly creature, I’ll still support her!”
Seeing the situation getting more and more out of hand, Eric walked up and said, “I don’t think you can hide from this anymore, Rose.”
Even if she didn’t reveal her identity today, she would have to make an appearance at The Eleventh Writers Association Meeting next year as the previous chairperson.
She let out a reluctant sigh.
Reaching up, she slowly took off the black cap she was wearing and revealed a clean and fair face.
All eyes slowly shifted toward her face.
Suddenly, they all became stunned.
Rose!
This is how she looks.
Not only was she not the elderly person she was rumored to be, but she was also very attractive.
The people at the scene were going crazy; looks of shock and wonder filled their faces.
At one point, they all thought they were hallucinating, but the scene before them was very much real.
One of the committee members stood up abruptly and pointed at Janet with a startled expression. “Isn’t she Janet Jackson?”
Janet Jackson?
Below the stage, cries of alarm sounded at once.
“Janet Jackson? The artist? The one that’s also the top scholar?”
“Rose is Janet?”
“Holy sh*t. How does Janet have so many identities?”
Everyone was finding it hard to believe. Wasn’t it said that the long-lost daughter of the Jackson Family was inferior to their adopted daughter?

The daughter they brought home from the countryside turned out to be the famous author, Rose.
She was also the chairperson of the Writers Association with the most votes!
“Holy sh*t! No wonder she kept her identity hidden. She’s already well-known!”
“Oh my God. Who knew Rose was this beautiful? Her beauty is magnificent!”

“This is surely going to make headlines in the news tomorrow!”
“What an odd woman. She’s so versatile!”
Everyone was extremely thrilled. No one could have imagined that the mysterious artist was also known for so many other things and excelled in everything that she did.
Aside from the committee members and authors at the scene who were going frantic, the online live broadcast was also being covered with shocked reactions like, ‘she’s so beautiful’, ‘how talented’, and ‘holy f*ck’.
Hundreds of camera shutters went off as people captured one of the possibly most shocking moments in history.

At the Jackson Residence, Megan immediately jumped up when the girl took off her cap.
Her hand in which she held the phone was shaking violently. Janet really is Rose! That means Janet did not plagiarize anyone! The Jackson Family won’t be dragged down because of her either! For the first time in a long time, she had a look of excitement and eagerness on her face. How did I not know how talented Janet was?
Despite not knowing the significance of being the chairperson of the Writers Association, she figured it was quite amazing based on the responses of netizens. No one will talk about Janet being inferior to Emily anymore. After all, I did give birth to her; she wouldn’t disappoint. Where else could she have gotten her skills from?
At the moment, she was excited but also baffled.
Quickly pulling up her phone, she sent Emily a text: ‘Your sister didn’t plagiarize anyone. She is Rose herself. Now, our family won’t get dragged down either. This is amazing!’
After sending out the text, she gripped the phone tightly in her hands with an elated expression on her face.
In Yobril, Emily had also watched the moment the girl took off her cap and froze on the spot right away.
She kept rubbing her eyes and repeated, “No. No. This can’t be right. There must be something wrong with my eyes. How can Rose be Janet?”
Rose is definitely not Janet. There must be something wrong with my eyes!
She scoffed. If Janet really was Rose, she would have flaunted that in front of me a long time ago. How could she have kept it hidden for this long? Yes, that’s it. I know Janet too well! There must be something wrong with my eyes now since I’m always thinking about that wench.
“Go for an eye checkup at the hospital immediately,” she mumbled to herself, but her legs were rooted in place and completely immovable.
Suddenly, a notification popped up. Tapping it with her shaky hands, she saw Megan’s text on the screen. ‘Your sister didn’t plagiarize in her paper. She is Rose herself. Now, our family won’t get dragged down either. This is amazing!’
As soon as Emily saw the text, she lost her grip on her phone. It fell to the ground, causing the screen to shatter to pieces.
Even though the screen was destroyed, Janet’s voice from the live broadcast still came through.
Emily collapsed with a crash; both of her legs were quivering violently.
She lay on the ground with her eyes closed, but her eyes continued to twitch.
A while later, she finally got up from the ground, opened her eyes, and exhaled. “I knew it. It was a hallucination.”
