Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 871

The rest of the class was undoubtedly jealous of Janet.

“Miss Hogan, why can Janet take the day off and not us?”

“That’s right, Miss Hogan. Just let us go. We really want to go this time.”

“The competition starts in two days. We must get there by tomorrow. Please approve our leave request, Miss Hogan.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“No,” rejected Nina with certainty. She added, “If you guys can get a perfect score in the upcoming exams, you don’t even have to attend classes anymore.”

Ultimately, Janet was allowed to leave because she had gotten perfect scores in the last exams. Besides, she was an acquaintance of Robert; of course, Nina had to approve her request! She didn’t want to screw up their relationship.

Upon hearing their teacher’s words, the students couldn’t help but stare at Janet and Hazel with envious gazes.

Unlike them, Abby grabbed Janet’s hand excitedly and exclaimed, “Janet, remember to bring your camera. You have to take a lot of videos for us.”

Janet turned around and blinked at her. Smiling, she said, “Is Gordon going?”

Abby scratched her head at the question. “I’m not sure about that.” He’s been quite busy recently; I don’t think he will be there.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Fine. If Gordon is going, then I’ll be his personal photographer.” Janet smirked as she stroked Abby’s crown gently.

“You’re annoying.” Shyly, Abby bumped her shoulder.

After the meeting, Mason and Henry came out from the Lowry Family Conglomerate’s conference room together. Suddenly, Henry’s phone vibrated. He quickly pulled his phone out.

Yesterday evening, he sent his assistant to contact the International Federation of Musicians in order to obtain the list of contestants in advance. If he could meet Sweet Tune this time, he had to seize the opportunity.

Immediately, he logged into his Messenger and tapped on the picture his assistant sent him. After reading the list, a flash of disappointment glinted before his eyes. Sweet Tune is not participating in this year’s World Piano Competition…

He breathed out a sigh and was about to turn off his phone. At that moment, something caught his attention. Quickly, he held the phone closer and went over the list again. When he saw the name, his eyes widened, and he nearly leaped up in shock. “Young Master Mason… Look at this!”

Mason glanced at him. “What?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. What a surprise,” exclaimed Henry.

Mason’s patience ran out when he didn’t receive the answer he wanted. Therefore, he narrowed his eyes and threatened, “If you’re going to beat around the bush, get out of my company.”

His warning quickly burnt out Henry’s passion. Hurriedly, Henry said, “I saw Mrs. Lowry’s name on the World Piano Competition’s contestants list!”

Stunned, Mason took his phone away. His charming peach blossom eyes fixated on the glowing screen as he read the list carefully. On the list of contestants, ‘Janet Jackson’ was clearly labeled as the representative of Sandfort City for this year’s World Piano Competition.

The moment Mason saw her name, his pupils shrank. He was shocked! He thought Janet was joking when she mentioned taking part in the competition last night. He didn’t expect her to be serious!

Taking a deep breath, Mason threw Henry’s phone back to him and took out his own phone. On the phone, he ordered, “Prepare the private plane. I’m going to Yobril tomorrow.”

Henry frowned. “Young Master Mason, are you going to watch Mrs. Lowry compete?”

“Of course.” Mason lifted the corners of his mouth slightly at his words. He even had to put together a fan club for his darling.

Henry felt awkward. Although he had witnessed Janet’s impressive piano skills last night, the contestants that took part in the World Piano Competition were professionals! Besides, Emily was well-prepared this time. He wondered who would win the competition.

 

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 872

Janet hasn’t learned music before; why is she sticking her nose into this competition? If she loses the competition, it’s going to be so humiliating! Sigh. One is bold enough to sign up, and the other one is bold enough to attend. I really don’t understand this couple anymore!

In the meantime, Emily had also gotten the contestants’ list through Wesley.

In the message Wesley sent, he wrote, ‘At first, I thought I should stick to the regulations and send you the list tomorrow. But, since you’re so anxious, I’ll send it to you first. Remember; you have to keep it a secret!’

Nobody knew how thrilled Emily was to see his message. She didn’t even dare to tap on the list! After all, the competition would affect her status in the music industry in the future.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryTrembling, she tapped into the message and mumbled, “J’Adore, please don’t join the competition. J’Adore can’t be on the list. Please. Please!” As she prayed, she moved her fingers away, attempting to take a look at the screen. She was far more nervous than when she sat for her college entrance exams!

After studying the list, she couldn’t find J’Adore’s name. At that moment, her tensed nerves loosen up. Taking a deep breath, she smirked in satisfaction. “Luckily, J’Adore isn’t on the list.” She patted her chest, still badly shaken by the shock.

Suddenly, an extremely familiar name that she hated to the core caught her eyes. She saw Janet’s name labeled as the representative of Sandfort City on the list. Janet Jackson?

Emily burst into laughter the moment she saw her name. Janet is taking part in the World Piano Competition? Is this fake news? How can she compete for Sandfort City with her skills? Did the assessors lose their minds? Why would they agree for Janet to participate? Haha! Who gave Janet the courage to sign up? Was it Celion Dion? Huh. I finally get it now. Janet is slow-witted. She can’t accept that I’m better than her, so she has to meddle in everything I do. How can there be such a shameless person in this world? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Of course, she’s acquainted with Walter. She probably got him to teach her piano while she was hooking up with him! No wonder Walter treats me so badly. He didn’t even show up at the banquet. Maybe Janet was the one behind that! Huh. She did a good job! She hooked up with Walter to get him to teach her the piano while going out with Mason to get his power. A two-timing wench? How despicable! Luckily, no matter how good a pianist Walter is, Janet can never be my rival with her actual skills. After all, I’m Mr. Hilbert’s student. Janet already lost to me in terms of her temperament. Huh. How dare she take part in the competition? I’ll show her how I’m going to humiliate her!

The more Emily thought about it, the more excited she got. She took her phone out straight away and sent Hazel a message, ‘I have a huge joke. Want to hear it?’

On the other end, Hazel quickly replied, ‘What joke? Tell me.’

‘Janet Jackson is taking part in the World Piano Competition!’ As Emily tapped on her phone, she laughed heartily.

What? The moment Hazel saw the message, she stood up from her seat in the middle of class. Baffled, she burst into laughter. Janet Jackson is taking part in the World Piano Competition? Isn’t she embarrassed enough already? Is she still trying to make a fool out of herself in Yobril? Haha! This was probably the funniest joke Hazel had heard this year.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 873

Frowning, Nina asked in confusion, “What’s wrong, Miss Hazel?”

“N-Nothing.” Hazel’s face was flushed as she tried to hold back her laughter.

“Please sit down, then.”

Nodding, Hazel took her seat obediently. She nearly couldn’t hold back herself just now. When she tried to restrain herself, she took a glance at Janet, and her eyes glinted with a flash of sarcasm.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryUnbeknownst to her, Janet noticed the look on her face and gave her a meaningful look.

Classes were dismissed at 5 PM. Sheldon sat inside a brown Bentley parked outside of the university entrance.

“Sheldon.” When Hazel saw the familiar license plate, she quickly darted toward the car.

Upon hearing his name, Sheldon looked toward the direction of the sound and smirked. “Are you ready to go back to Yobril?”

Immediately, Hazel looked reluctant. “Sheldon, why do you sound like I’m no longer coming back to Sandfort City anymore?”

Sheldon burst into laughter at her words. “I heard that the contestants of this year’s World Piano Competition are very competent. Do you think you can win the championship?”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryWhen Hazel heard her brother’s question, she couldn’t help but laugh. The contestants are competent? Seriously? “Sheldon, don’t you know who is going to take part in the competition?”

Indeed, Sheldon had never bothered to find out about the participants. He only heard rumors from the others.

Hazel let out a chuckle before she said, “Even the quack is going to participate.”

“Quack?” Sheldon frowned at her words. “Do you mean Sandra… Janet Jackson?”

“Who else if not her.”

“Hazel.” Sheldon’s voice sank slightly, and he warned, “Don’t be so rude.”

As if she was intimidated, Hazel stopped talking. Honestly, she simply wanted her brother to know about Janet’s participation. After all, her only purpose was to make sure Janet lost miserably in the competition! Sheldon, wait until you see how Janet is going to fall from her peak! Your crush? Is she worthy enough to be your crush?

Because the competition fell on the day after tomorrow, Emily had to leave for Yobril the following day. Megan was helping Emily with her luggage when she asked, “Who is participating in the competition this time?”

All identities of the contestants were kept secret from the public due to the change in the competition’s regulations. The public could only find out about them during the day of the competition.

“Just…” Emily hesitated; she didn’t know if she should tell her mother. If she told Megan, she might ask Janet to give up the competition in order to protect the Jackson Family’s reputation. If Janet really gave up, she would lose the chance to humiliate her. No way! I’ve been waiting for this. I have to win the trophy. I have to humiliate Janet.

“What’s wrong?” Megan asked confusedly, “You don’t know who is taking part in the competition?”

Emily nodded and said with a smile, “No one told me yet, so I don’t know either.”

At her remarks, Megan let out a chuckle. “It looks like they’ve done a good job keeping it a secret.” If J’Adore didn’t take part, the win will go to Emily without a doubt, right? she thought.

In the meantime, Janet sat in front of the piano back at the Lowry Residence as she played. The song from a few years ago was engraved in her mind, and she couldn’t forget it. It was so deeply engraved in her memory that every time she tried to play, her fingertips would naturally reach for the right key. One had to admit that this contributed to her talent when it came to music.

A man was standing beside her, but he didn’t interrupt her. Instead, he found her music calming.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 874

After Janet was done playing the song, the man asked, “Why did you decide to take part in the World Piano Competition?”

“You found out?” He heard her calm and collected voice.

“Yeah. Henry told me.”

“I just want to give myself a vacation. What else could it be?” Janet answered indifferently.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“That’s a unique answer.” Although she said she wanted to relax, the competition was extremely competitive. How could one relax in that kind of situation?

Janet grinned at his reaction. Truth be told, she just wanted to take back her original creation. Standing up, she looked at the man and let out a chuckle. “Are you coming, then?”

He broke into laughter. “Of course, I’m going. Jason will never die.”

“Fine.” Janet nodded as if she was giving him permission. “Try to keep a low profile. It’s a global live broadcast.”

When they set off to Yobril the next day, the competition had already kicked off. The organizer and the International Federation of Musicians attached great importance to this competition. Therefore, the competition took place at the largest auditorium in Yobril. More than a thousand well-known figures from the music industry were invited, as well as some of the experts and their students.

Staff members and guests filled up nearly half of the auditorium, leaving the remaining seats to the public who bought tickets to come in. Hundreds of cameras were set up, along with countless cameras that were focused on the stage in order to bring forward an immersive experience so that those who watched the live broadcast could feel as if they were present at the scene.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThere were a total of eight contestants in this competition: Janet represented Sandfort City while her student, Roxy, would be representing Markovia. Both Emily and Hazel represented Yobril… All of them were the most talented musicians in their respective countries and they were chosen after a series of selection processes.

A total of eight lounges were prepared for each contestant. After Hilbert arrived at the scene, he rushed toward Emily’s lounge. A sudden knock on the door irritated Emily. This is my rest time. If I don’t rest properly, I won’t be able to perform on stage. Having said that, she knew she had to open the door. So, she said reluctantly, “Come in.”

At her remarks, Hilbert immediately pushed open the door and went in.

When Emily heard footsteps, she turned around and her eyes met with Hilbert’s. Quickly, she stood up and welcomed him. “Mr. Hilbert, you’re here?”

Nodding to her greeting, Hilbert put the list of contestants on the table. “Emily, these are today’s contestants. Take a look. See if there’s anyone you know apart from Hazel.” After all, the only way to win a war was to know your enemy!

Emily had already seen the list. Yet, due to Wesley’s warning, she had to act like this was the first time she saw it. She simply flipped through it before putting it back on the table. Her expression remained stoic.

Hilbert was taken aback by her reaction. Why is Emily so calm even after looking at the list? Does she know that Sweet Tune is amongst them? Sweet Tune is Janet Jackson! And Janet Jackson is Sweet Tune!

The fact that Sandfort City’s Music Association had sent Sweet Tune to the competition was completely beyond Hilbert’s expectations. He felt like he had nurtured a snake in his own bosom. If he had known what was going to happen today, he would have asked Sweet Tune to join him back then.

Nonetheless, Emily didn’t know why Hilbert was nervous. Smiling, she said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Hilbert. I will win this competition no matter what.” There was only one contestant who was worthy to compete with her, and that person was Roxy. Considering that he was Sweet Tune’s student, he would at least have the skills. She could only hope he wouldn’t notice something wrong with her song.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 875

Emily seemed confident that she could win the competition. Nevertheless, Hilbert couldn’t help but frown as he asked, “Are you really confident?”

Upon hearing the doubt in his voice, Emily raised her delicate eyebrows, looking superior and arrogant. “Mr. Hilbert, you’re my teacher. Are you questioning your own abilities?”

Hilbert was behaving abnormally today, and Emily wondered what was bothering him. Except for Roxy, whom she regarded as her only rival, the others only had half-baked skills.

“Do you know Janet…” Hilbert hesitated, and his voice trailed off.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryYet, Emily had a lot to say when she heard him mentioning Janet. “By the way, why would Sandfort City’s Music Association agree to let a layperson participate in this competition?” Sandfort City’s Music Association’s assessors are probably out of their minds. Did they sign her up in this competition to disgust me?

Hilbert knew what Emily wanted to ask. She wanted to ask why Janet took part in the competition. However, he had to prioritize the interests of the whole. Therefore, he swallowed his words. If Emily discovered that Janet was actually Sweet Tune before the competition, he was sure the truth would throw her off. He doubted she would have the courage to perform on stage later. Taking that into consideration, he decided to conceal the truth from her.

“Fine. Do your best later. I’ll go take a look at Hazel.” After he said that, he left the lounge.

As Emily stared at Hilbert’s flustered back, she was confused.

Meanwhile, Roxy was chatting with Janet in the latter’s lounge. “Master, why didn’t you register as Sweet Tune for this competition?”

If she signed up as Sweet Tune, her fans would have flooded the auditorium. However, apart from his fans, Emily’s and Hazel’s fans made up the majority for the time being. Since they were representing Yobril, and the competition was held in Yobril, it was natural for there to be a lot of local fans.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryUpon hearing his question, Janet remained stoic, though one of the corners of her mouth was lifted. “You’ll find out during the competition.”

“Fine.” Roxy sounded disappointed. “After the competition, can you write a song for me?” He blinked with expectation. It would soon be three years since Roxy made his debut, and he wanted to work with the golden composer for his music video and song.

After giving his request a second thought, Janet nodded. “Sure.” After all, her identity as Sweet Tune would be disclosed by the time the competition ended. There was no point in hiding the truth anymore.

Sitting with her legs crossed, Janet suddenly recalled something. A smile found its way across her face at the thought of that. I wonder what his reaction and expression will be when he finds out that I’m Sweet Tune.

The auditorium was packed out even though there were tens of thousands of seats. The seniors and experts in the music industry were seated in the front row that was closest to the stage while the second row was reserved for the investors from the business industry and the rich.

Despite that, the organizer managed to secure some seats in advance for some big shots in the front row. Amongst them were Mason, who was the most powerful person in Asia; Henry, the owner of the second-largest enterprise in Sandfort City; and Lee, who had always been well-known for his mysterious identity.

Even though the competition hadn’t started, the audience had already gone into an uproar in their seats.

“There are too many people. Why does this feel like a concert to me?”

“You should feel lucky you get to come in. Stop complaining.”

“That’s right. Do you have any idea how many fans Roxy and Emily have? Most couldn’t make it here even though they wanted to.”

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 876

“That’s right. It’s better to watch it live than to watch it on your phone, isn’t it?”

“I think so too!”

“By the way, who do you think the other contestants are apart from Emily and Roxy?”

“Other than Emily, Hazel is also representing Yobril.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“What about the other countries, like Zindaria and Sandfort City?”

“I don’t know. But, the champion will definitely be either Roxy or Emily.”

At this moment, someone amongst the crowd stood up and disagreed with the comment. “Don’t speak too soon. Hazel might win the championship too.”

“That’s right. She’s also Hilbert’s student. What’s the difference between Emily and her?”

“But, didn’t Emily hold a banquet a few days ago? She could have won the championship with that performance alone!”

The fans were arguing back and forth, and they nearly got into a fight!

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query

Meanwhile, Emily was watching the live broadcast of the audience in her lounge. The fans who had come with her banners were often captured on cameras. Staring at them through the screen, she grinned with satisfaction. Huh. The auditorium is crowded with my fans. Who does Janet think she is? She’s just making a fool out of herself for daring to take part in the competition!

Suddenly, someone made an announcement from outside. “The three major families of Sandfort City are here!”

Immediately, Emily’s eyes lit up. She kept her eyes fixed on the screen and found three tall and handsome men walking into the auditorium in a rather kingly manner. They went straight to the front row of the audience and took their seats. These three big shots from Sandfort City had taken up three out of the five seats specially reserved in the front row. Behind them were the incessant cheers of the audience.

“Oh my God! The three young masters from Sandfort City are here!”

“Am I dreaming? What are they doing here?”

“What the hell. If my eyes didn’t deceive me, the one in the black suit must be Young Master Mason. He’s as handsome as they say in the news.”

“Oh my God! I’m kneeling for him.”

“But, the key point is, who did they come for?”

“They were there at Emily’s banquet back at Sandfort City a few days ago. If I’m not mistaken, the three young masters must be here for Emily.”

“Holy crap! Emily must be so honored.”

Emily could hear the audience’s chatter through the screen backstage. She couldn’t help but feel a pang of panic, which was quickly replaced by a snicker of joy. The three young masters are here! They are actually here to watch my performance! Am I dreaming? But, they weren’t very enthusiastic back at the banquet. Logically, they wouldn’t have come to watch the competition.

Frowning, Emily went deep into contemplation. Perhaps, they’re here for Janet? She knew Janet was a friend of Lee, but she was also Mason’s lover. Are all of them here because of Janet? Mason would have attracted so much attention if he came for Janet. Isn’t he afraid that J’Adore would find out about them? Suddenly, Emily was confused.

However, at this moment, she heard the host’s excited voice rise from the screen. “Young Master Mason, Young Master Sanders, and Young Master Moss, why did you guys come here together today?”

“Naturally, we’re here for the champion.”

When Emily heard Mason’s voice, she quickly looked up at the screen. What unfolded before her eyes was the affectionate smile that found its way across the lifted corners of his lips. Even his eyes were shining brightly. As soon as he said that, the audience went into chaos.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 877

“Champion?”

“Is Young Master Mason really here for Emily?”

“Of course. Besides Emily, who else could it be.”

“What the hell. Emily must be so happy!”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Tsk, tsk, tsk. They are indeed a match made in heaven!”

“No. But, doesn’t Young Master Mason already have a girlfriend?”

“Are you talking about J’Adore? She’s not as good-looking as Emily. Young Master Mason only got together with her for the sake of family interests.”

“That’s right. Maybe she knows Young Master Mason is supporting Emily at the scene, and she’s only turning a blind eye.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Rich and powerful families are a mess.”

Emily’s assumption that the three young masters had come here for Janet had been put to rest by the back-and-forth between the audience.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query

Mason said he’s here for the champion. Only I can be today’s champion, so they’re probably here for me. The thought filled Emily with hope and energy. She was eager to perform on stage now.

Meanwhile, Hazel was a little envious of Emily. She didn’t expect that the three young masters of Sandfort City would be here for her when her own brother didn’t even show up. When she thought about her brother, her eyelids concealed her eyes like a wilted flower. Well, after all, Sheldon didn’t say he would come. He’s been busy with the Council’s work recently.

After what happened to their father, Sheldon had been bringing together a medical team that belonged solely to the Fuller Corporation. At the same time, he was also preparing to expand the company into the medical field.

He needs to take care of everything alone; of course, he won’t be able to make it here. Pouting, Hazel was down in the dumps. Suddenly, she heard someone’s exclamation rise from outside.

“Young Master Fuller is here!”

Young Master Fuller? Instantly, her eyes lit up, and she quickly ran outside her lounge. Standing backstage, she stared straight at Sheldon, who had arrived surrounded by a group of bodyguards in black suits.

Sheldon really came to watch my performance! How wonderful!

The Fuller Corporation had invested a fortune in this competition. Therefore, the organizer had to entertain Sheldon by reserving one of the two empty seats in the front row for him.

“Young Master Fuller, a seat has been reserved for you in the front row. Please take a seat.” The person-in-charge came forward with a respectful and flattering expression before they led Sheldon to the front row. “Young Master Fuller, you’ll be sitting with the three young masters of Sandfort City and Mr. Hilbert.”

Nodding, Sheldon lifted a corner of his mouth and responded in his charmingly low voice. “Hmm.”

As Lee had gone to the Fuller Residence with Janet when she was there to diagnose Old Master Fuller, he knew Sheldon. Glancing at Sheldon, he smiled and said, “Young Master Fuller, fancy meeting you here.”

Upon hearing that, Sheldon was stunned for a second. Slowly, he turned around. When he saw the person next to him, he was surprised. “You’re the divine doctor’s assistant? The one who came with her to treat my father that day?”

Lee nodded. “That’s right.”

Immediately, Sheldon’s face was full of respect, though he still managed to keep his composure as the eldest son of the President of Yobril’s National Council. He returned Lee’s greeting with a smile. “I didn’t know you were one of the three young masters of Sandfort City.”

Lee let out a chuckle and introduced himself. “I’m Lee Sanders.”

Sheldon was shocked. After all, the three young masters of Sandfort City were very well-known internationally. He couldn’t believe that Lee would actually follow the divine doctor around, acting as her assistant!

After Lee and Sheldon got acquainted, they started to have a chat. Yet, their interaction didn’t go unnoticed by Mason.

The divine doctor’s assistant? Could it be that the patient Jan and Lee came to Yobril to treat last time was Young Master Fuller’s father?

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 878

In that case, does this Young Master Fuller know Jan too?

After a while, the conversation between Lee and Sheldon came to an end. Taking the opportunity, Mason asked, “Young Master Sanders, do you know him?”

Lee nodded at his question. “He’s the eldest son of the President of Yobril’s National Council. I came here with Janet last time to treat his father.”

“I see.” After Mason said that, both of them fell silent.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QuerySheldon nodded at Mason in greeting and the latter nodded politely in return.

This year’s competition was divided into three rounds: the first round was the preliminary round; the second round was the advancement round; and the third round was the final round. Out of the total of eight contestants, three would be eliminated in the preliminary round, and a further two more would be eliminated during the advancement round. The final round would be a battle for the champion and first runner-up. Regardless, everyone was, of course, fighting for first place.

All eight contestants had gathered together backstage to decide on the order to perform. Every year, the order was decided by drawing lots. Eight balls were placed in a sealed box. Everyone had to draw lots according to the alphabetical order of their names. Only a few minutes were needed to complete the process.

Anxiously, Emily took a glance at Hazel and asked, “When is your turn?”

Unlike her, Hazel was calm. She said, “Second. You?”

Grabbing the ball in her palm tightly, Emily was excited. “First.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“First is good. You can spice up the crowd.”

Upon hearing her comment, Emily was overjoyed and nodded. “I think so too!” After all, the first contestant always left the deepest impression on the judges. For that reason, being the first did no harm to her.

In the meantime, Roxy turned around and looked at the girl beside him. He asked, “When is your turn?”

Right away, he heard a calm and indifferent voice. “Hard luck. Eighth.”

When Emily heard her, she took a glance at the ball in Janet’s hand, and she couldn’t help but burst with joy. You asked for it! Huh. The eighth to go on stage? By then, the audience and the judges might have fallen asleep. Who will watch your boring performance?

As far as Emily was concerned, the first seven contestants were experts, but the last one was only a rookie. Putting aside the question as to whether the judges would be bored by the repetition of performances, the fact that the last performance would have a huge contrast with the first seven performances would only make Janet look bad.

How ridiculous! She nearly believed that the competition was specially held to humiliate Janet. The thought of that slightly eased her tension. Then, she turned her head and asked, “Roxy, what about you?”

Roxy stared at Emily. His face remained expressionless and even his voice sounded calm when he uttered, “Seventh.”

At his remark, Emily was even more thrilled. Roxy would compete as the seventh contestant while Janet was the eighth. Since Roxy was a talented pianist, there would be a huge contrast between his performance and Janet’s.

Janet might not even make it to the advancement round. Haha! If she can’t even pass the preliminary round, it’s going to be a shame. Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Undoubtedly, Hazel was pondering the same thing. She smirked at the thought and tugged at Emily’s arm. The girls exchanged a meaningful smile, gloating and mocking Janet’s unfortunate circumstance.

In the meantime, the host had gotten the list of the order of the contestants. Therefore, it was time to reveal their identities.

According to the order, the host read, “The first contestant comes from Sandfort City. She’s very popular and is very talented. At the same time, she’s also a famous musician and Mr. Hilbert’s treasured student. She’s none other than the elegant and gorgeous Emily Jackson.”

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 879

A burst of thunderous applause rang out following those words.

“Oh, my God! To think Emily is the first to appear! This is going to be a feast for the eyes!”

“Yeah! I came here for her! I believe she can do it!”

“Good luck, Emily! We’re cheering for you!”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMegan and Brian couldn’t help feeling nervous after hearing those words. On the other hand, the relatives of the Jackson Family were filled with envy instead. “Megan, Brian, you have such a talented daughter!”

“Yeah. I didn’t expect Emily to have so many fans.”

“If Emily wins, can you ask her to teach my daughter how to play the piano?”

“Emily can become a judge or a piano professor if she wins. By then, she won’t have the time to bother with commoners like us anymore.”

“That’s true; that’s true!”

Megan and Brian looked at each other and smiled, involuntarily squeezing each other’s arms tightly.

After the burst of cheers died down, the second contestant was welcomed onstage. The host glanced at the name list in his hand and excitedly announced, “The second contestant to appear today is the President of Yobril’s National Council’s daughter, as well as a protégé of the renowned musician, Hilbert! Let’s welcome Hazel Fuller! Her brother, Sheldon Fuller, is also here to cheer for her today! Hopefully, she can give us a wonderful performance today!”

Then, the camera shifted to show Sheldon’s face on the screen. Sheldon smiled in response. His thin lips curved slightly, and his eyes were filled with adoration. The people watching the live broadcast immediately swooned at the sight of his smile.

“Damn! This Sheldon Fuller guy sure is handsome!”

“Right?! He is the eldest son of the President of Yobril’s National Council, who will inherit Fuller Corporation in the future!”

“Oh, my God! So, he is handsome and rich!”

“That’s right. I heard he is one of the investors in this competition. It looks like Hazel will enter the top three in this competition no matter what happens.”

“No way! Doesn’t that mean they are playing dirty in the competition?!”

“It’s not really playing dirty. Hazel is a protégé of Hilbert after all. It’s not surprising for her to enter the top three in the competition, right?”

“Yup. That’s right!”

“Good luck, Hazel!”

The competition was exceptionally popular; many people were watching the competition, whether through the live broadcast or on the scene itself. As a result, the live broadcast was overloaded by a large number of people on several occasions. Fortunately, the organizers had prepared for that possibility by setting up several servers. Thus, they prevented the overloading from affecting the audiences watching the live broadcast.

After introducing Hazel, the host continued to introduce the rest of the contestants. Every contestant was carefully selected. Not only were they trained in piano since they were children, but they were also famous pianists in their respective countries. It could be seen that their abilities were extraordinary.

Following the introduction of the first six contestants, the seventh contestant was none other than Roxy. It was no secret that Roxy was the one and only apprentice of the golden composer, Sweet Tune. Therefore, everybody knew his true strength even without the host’s introduction.

As Sweet Tune had rejected the invitation from the Judging Panel of the International Federation of Musicians, many guessed that it was because Roxy was participating in the competition. If she had taken up that position in the International Federation of Musicians, many would have accused her of being impartial if Roxy were to win the competition. Hence, it was no surprise that she had rejected the position.

The cheers for Roxy were no less than the cheers for Emily—most of the people watching the competition, be it through the live broadcast or on the scene, were his fans.

Only the final contestant was left after the host finished introducing Roxy. When the host first saw the name, he had been quite surprised and puzzled. After all, Sandfort City had many musical talents. However, the name ‘Janet Jackson’ was one he had never heard of before, whether in the world of music or the world of piano—she was a complete amateur.

Have the assessors of Sandfort City’s Music Association gone crazy? Why did they send an amateur to participate in the competition? Although the host couldn’t understand their actions, he performed his duties well and read out her name. “Last but not least, our final contestant representing Sandfort City is—”

Everybody at the scene held their breath in anticipation, waiting for the host to read out that person’s name. At the same time, the audience watching the live broadcast in Sandfort City was extremely nervous too. The representative of Sandfort City was the embodiment of Sandfort City’s reputation! Nobody knew who was representing Sandfort City this year. Therefore, everybody was filled with anticipation and nervousness.

“Last but not least, our final contestant representing Sandfort City is Janet Jackson!” The host finished his sentence.

Below the stage, the audience that had been talking about the contestants suddenly fell into stunned silence.

“The person representing Sandfort City is Janet Jackson?”

“What the hell is going on? Is there a mistake?”

“Who is Janet Jackson? I’ve never heard this name before in any of the music circles or the piano circles.”

“Yeah, I’m at a loss too!”

Even Megan, Brian, and the relatives of the Jackson Family were shocked when they heard the announcement.

The relatives of the Jackson Family exclaimed in shock, “Janet Jackson? Isn’t Janet your daughter?”

“That’s right! Has Janet ever learned the piano? Why is she suddenly participating in the competition?”

“What’s going on? Won’t Emily and Janet be facing off against each other again?”

“They competed in the last painting competition. And now, they are competing in this piano competition? What’s going on?!”

“Emily is Hilbert’s protégé while Janet has never learned the piano before. It looks like Emily will be wiping the floor with Janet this time!”

“That’s a huge possibility!”

Meanwhile, Megan was so shocked that she didn’t know how to react. She said in bewilderment, “Why would Janet participate in this competition?”

Brian seemed dumbfounded too. He didn’t understand what was going on. “Is it a contestant with the same name?”

Despite saying that, he didn’t quite believe his words either. After all, not many people in Sandfort City had the surname ‘Jackson’. It was practically impossible to have the exact same name as Janet. But, we didn’t receive any news from Janet about her participation in this competition! Moreover, Emily didn’t tell us that Janet would be participating in this competition either!

Compared to the Jackson Family, the people watching the live broadcast were even more shocked. These people were none other than the citizens of Sandfort City and the medical students of Woodsbury University.

“F*ck! Did I hear that correctly?! Is Janet representing Sandfort City?!”

“Damn! I thought Janet took some time off to go to Yobril to watch the competition. I can’t believe she is actually one of the contestants of the competition!”

“Although I like Janet quite a lot, isn’t she unsuited for this competition? She will surely be defeated by Emily!”

“That’s right. If she loses the competition, how embarrassing would that be?”

“Why did she decide to join the competition? Besides, are the assessors of Sandfort City’s Music Association idiots?! Why did they agree to it?!”

“If Janet loses in the preliminary round, all the goodwill she accumulated before this will be gone in a flash.”

“Yeah. Not only will she embarrass herself, but she will also embarrass Sandfort City!”

On the other side, two men sat in the back seat of a red Ferrari. They were holding a tablet in their hands and staring fixedly at the live broadcast.

“We should be able to make it.”

“It’ll be okay. Don’t be too nervous.” Gordon smiled, crossing his leg over his knee.

Over the past few days, Gordon and Walter had been recording a musical variety show and arrived in Yobril one day late as a consequence.
