Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 991

Melissa wore a complex expression and she kept her head bowed without answering him.

A trace of thrill flashed through the President’s eyes, but he hid it straight away. “Since you’ve made your choice, Miss Rocher, I will sign a contract with you.”

After saying that, he walked back to the couch to place the contract in her hands. “Have a look at it. If there’s no issue, the experiment starts tomorrow. The faster, the better.”

Melissa inhaled deeply while slowly accepting the contract. She had a look at it before asking him, “Mr. Hills, I hope that you’d keep the research content a secret before the experiment succeeds.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Of course.” He grinned at her. I want nothing more than to make sure that she keeps this a secret anyway.

Melissa accepted the President’s fountain pen. After making up her mind, she placed her signature on the dotted lines.

There is no going back after signing the contract. It’s true; Mr. Hills is right—if the experiment succeeds, I will become the pioneer in the medical community. By that time, how could anyone take the moral high road by condemning me? Melissa’s lips curled into a smirk and she laughed bitterly.

Meanwhile, the bureau somewhere in Barnsford City did not help Mason with much. Well, at least I know about Shadow 1 now. As long as I continue investigating with Shadow 1 as a clue, I am sure that I’d be able to find out who is pulling the strings behind the scene.

Mason returned to the Lowry Residence in Sandfort City after a long journey.

The servants had already prepared a warm dinner for him. She greeted him respectfully upon his return, “Young Master Mason, you are finally home.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryHe nodded while scanning the surroundings casually. After taking off his coat, he asked, “Where is she?”

“Young Master Mason, are you referring to Miss Jackson?”

He nodded discreetly while grunting softly in acknowledgement.

“Miss Jackson left shortly after you and she has yet to return.”

Mason was stumped for a few moments and his expression stiffened. He looked slightly anxious when he asked, “Did she say where she went?”

“No, she did not. By the way, Miss Jackson’s friend phoned yesterday. She said that she’s looking for you and she sounded rather panicked.”

Mason scowled deeply. “Looking for me, you say? What is her name?” he asked.

The servant stood still to recall the conversation over the phone and she suddenly remembered. “I think her name is Lara.”

“Lara?” he mumbled to himself. I can’t make sense of the situation. After considering his options, he looked down while walking toward the couch. He sat down in silence for a few seconds. In the end, he took out his phone to dial a number.

The phone rang a few times, but it connected swiftly. “Hello.”

“Babe, where are you?” Mason’s husky and alluring voice sounded clear and his tone reflected how terribly he missed her.

Janet answered quickly—she sounded slightly indifferent, but amused. “I am just outside the door.”

“Huh?” Mason’s response had a strong nasal twang.

“Come out.” After hearing her words, he stood up from the couch abruptly and he charged out of the door like a maniac.

Janet was talking on the phone while walking forward.

Mason’s gaze darkened and he ran straight toward the woman outside the door.

After that, he reached out to tightly hold her in his arms. He embraced her while breathing in her scent.

He immediately detected a faint, but unfamiliar shower gel scent. It set alarm bells on his sensitive receptors. “Where did you go?” His voice was deep, but it sounded husky and seductive.

Janet snorted lightly. “In that case, where did you go, Mr. Lowry?”

He didn’t even inform me when he left. Instead, he conveyed the message via a servant. I know he did that because he didn’t want to wake me up and disturb my sleep. However, I just have to tease him.

“Let’s go in and I will tell you everything.” He held her tiny waist to lead her into the house.

Janet bobbed her head and she allowed him to hold her.

I have been missing her for the past few days. My empty heart feels full to the brim the moment I saw her just now. I simply can’t describe my feelings with words. In any case, I just really miss her.

During dinner time, he placed a piece of meat into Janet’s bowl. “The servant mentioned that your subordinate, Lara, was looking for me. Did something happen?” he asked.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 992

Janet ate the piece of meat while she answered indifferently, “Oh, it’s fine now.”

“Huh?” Mason put his bowl and chopsticks down to look at her.

She took a bite of the vegetables and finished chewing it before she spoke again, “In that case, where were you, Mr. Lowry? You better quickly tell me.” I am quite curious about the development of his investigation.

He picked up his chopsticks to continue placing different dishes into her bowl. He answered her calmly, “I managed to investigate, but I want to get rid of the root cause, so I will need more time.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet did not expect such quick progress in the matter. She placed her chopsticks down to stare at the deep, dark circles around his eyes. “Don’t exhaust yourself. You have to pace yourself.”

Mason held her petite hand with a smile. “It is worth it.” Everything is worth it for her sake. Right now, as I look at her fingers, somehow, I feel as though something is missing. After a life-and-death experience, I am convinced that I can’t lose her. Maybe I will promise her my life after this matter has been resolved, but I wonder if she’ll agree. He chuckled in a rumbling voice—his laughter was filled with love and tenderness for Janet.

Her fingertips felt ticklish from his touch, so she quickly withdrew her hands. Then, she hid her embarrassment by masking it as a yawn.

Janet’s phoenix eyes appeared tired.

“Be a good girl and head upstairs for a shower. You need to sleep soon.”

She nodded while leaving the dining table to make her way up to the second floor.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryShe was too exhausted to use the bathtub; instead, she planned to take a quick shower before heading to bed.

Just when she was removing her last piece of clothing, somebody opened the bathroom door suddenly.

Janet looked up sleepily and before she realized what was going on, she saw Mason walking into the bathroom. He was half-naked from the waist up and his trousers had wet patches.

She was slightly confused. “I am not done with my shower…”

He lifted his arm up to turn off the tap. Then, he picked her up while chuckling in amusement, “You will have to shower again later, anyway.”

Janet was rendered speechless when she heard that.

Maso carried her out of the shower. Apart from her last piece of clothing, she was naked.

“I’m sleepy.” Janet rubbed her eyes; it was obvious she was not interested in what he had in mind.

However, Mason was not deterred and he instead placed her on the basin top. Then, he bent down to plant a hot and passionate kiss on her corner of her lips. He kissed her in a sensual and lingering manner.

Janet felt as if he was about to suck the breath away from her chest. It had been a long time since he was in such a dire need for her. She could not stop him, so she patted his shoulders. “Mason, back to the bedroom.”

He bent down to kiss her eyes and his voice was deep and husky. “No, I can’t wait any longer.”

Janet took a step back and she cupped his handsome face with her hands. “It’s only a few steps away. Is this necessary?” she asked rhetorically. My body is pressed against the basin. It feels cold and hard. How could it possibly feel good for me?

“Check the duration from the last time I’ve had you. How long has it been? I am a man.” Mason gritted his teeth and he started nibbling her icy-cold earlobe. “You are always wearing thin pajamas to sleep while wrapping your hands around me. Isn’t that a form of invitation?” he asked, as though he was complaining too.

Does she even know how seductive she is when she says something sensual to me while hugging me to sleep or when she speaks in her dreams? I am already at my limits for enduring it for such a long time.

“Invitation, my a*s.” Janet rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t try to blame me when you are in the mood for this.”

Mason chuckled in amusement when he heard her accusations. “Yes. Yes, I want it. Well, do I have your permission?” he asked in a deep voice.

She did not answer him; instead, she raised her leg to kick his chest lightly.

Janet’s fair and small foot traced lightly against Mason’s body. I am not a man if I do not do something under such circumstances.

He reached out to grab her foot and he pulled her down to his lower body. Mason mumbled in a husky voice, “Babe…”

Since he did not look like he was in a rush anymore, Janet snorted lightly at him, “Mason.”

“I do not like that name.” Mason’s hands froze and he pinched her waist gently before he added. “Call me something else.”

She was at a loss for words.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 993

She clenched her jaws stubbornly, unwilling to speak. However, Mason would not release her at that critical moment.

“Janet, try calling me again. You have to address me with the name that you were previously used to.”

She finally could not endure it anymore. She moaned and there were tears in the corners of her eyes. “Mason.” I haven’t addressed him in such an intimate manner for a long time, so I am not used to it all of a sudden.

Mason was even more energized when he heard her sensual voice. He ended up focusing all of his strength on one point.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet was usually tough, but she was helpless when it came to this. She gritted her teeth before sinking them onto his shoulder. “You are able to bully me because you are a man. If I have one too, I will bully you so hard that you’d surrender to me,” she commented angrily.

“Is that so?” Mason chuckled and his voice was especially hoarse, but he did not stop his movements; instead, he increased the intensity. “I am looking forward to that day. However, before that, you can only stay beneath my body.”

Janet bared her canines and she bit his arm hard.

They were not sure how much time had passed, but they were both exhausted by the time they were done with each other.

She was on his shoulder when she mumbled, “Aren’t we going back to bed?” Why do I have the feeling that he isn’t done?

“We will be back in bed soon enough.” After saying that, Mason changed positions.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet glared at him and she warned him helplessly, but her voice was gravelly at that point, “You should exercise restraint.”

“You should speak less if you want me to end this faster,” his voice was deep and urgent. The sweat on his forehead dripped down her body. I suppose she isn’t aware that her breath and moans excite me immensely.

Janet sighed—her hips and limbs were weak and limp. In the end, she gave up resisting him.

Amidst the night, Mason finally let out a guttural growl and he finally stopped moving. He locked his arms around her waist in a domineering and intimate way. Then, he asked in a husky voice, “Promise me that you will always stay by my side, alright?”

Janet, who was fast asleep, did not answer him.

Mason pinched her nose to punish her while asking her persistently, “Will you stay by my side?”

This time, Janet, who was fast asleep, finally responded. She opened her eyes in a daze. After glancing at the man, who was lying beside her, she answered him, “Sure, we will always be together… We will always be together and we’ll get married.”

Mason’s originally clear eyes turned dark when he heard the words ‘get married’. He felt an indescribable feeling surge through his chest at that moment. I don’t care if she’s just sleep-talking or whether she’s sincere. I have to realize what she just said. He stood up to carry Janet, who was on the basin, into the shower to clean her up.

The two of them came out of the shower after 20 minutes.

He placed her carefully on the bed.

He was extremely careful and gentle, but she woke up anyway.

Janet opened her eyes and the sharp discomfort she felt reminded how hard they were going at it earlier. We did it from 9:00PM until 4:00AM—that is 7 hours long. We did it more than 7 times. Oh, my God! A man who has abstained for too long is worse than a starved wolf.

“Ouch.” She was in pain. She slumped onto the bed again when she tried getting up.

Mason had some medication in his hands when he entered the room. He was amused, but his heart ached for her when he saw how weak she looked. “Stop moving.”

Janet glared at him because she was frustrated. Why should I be tortured and motionless on the bed, but he’s still standing while making fun of me? Well, isn’t it just a rod? What’s so awesome about it?

She was fuming when she commented deliberately, “Mr. Lowry, you have admirable stamina. You are suited to work as a gigolo.”

Mason was at a loss for words when he heard that. He squinted at her suddenly and his gaze flashed menacingly in a warning manner.

He reached out to pick her up from the bed. Then, he placed her on his thighs when he teased her, “In that case, what do you think about my skills, Babe? I suppose it feels good, right?”

“Hmm,” Janet answered weakly. “At best, it’s average, but I think it’s a good choice to order your services once in a while.”

Mason’s handsome face soured straight away when he heard that. Is she treating me as a tool to vent her frustrations?

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 994

“Babe, do you still remember what you said in the bathroom earlier?” He was not annoyed, but he wanted to know whether she was serious about getting married or if she was just joking.

Janet seemed indifferent. “What did I say?” I don’t remember.

True enough, she doesn’t remember anything. I am sure that she just mentioned it for fun. The look of joy vanished from his eyes as he lifted her pajamas in silence. Then, he squeezed some medicine on his finger to smear it on her injured body parts. It felt cold, but he was tender with her. However, there was something strange about his expression.

Janet blinked her eyes and she asked Mason in confusion. “Tell me—what did I say?” He hooked his finger angrily when he heard that, making her shiver involuntarily. “What are you doing?” She looked up at him while complaining in frustration.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMason pressed his lips together and his voice was deep and gravelly. “Little liar.” Does she know how happy I was when she mentioned that we should get married?

What is wrong with him? Janet glared at him. She snatched the tube of medication from him. “I will do it myself.”

This time, he did not persist. Instead, he stood rooted to the spot for a few moments before finally turning to leave the bedroom.

Janet stared at Mason’s lonely and dejected back view and somehow, she felt lost. Did I say something I shouldn’t have said earlier? I don’t think I did. Did I say something to hurt his pride?

At the dining table, he ate his breakfast without speaking to her.

She was chewing on her toast and she stole a glance at him. “What is wrong with you?” She could not read his mind, so she had no choice but to take the initiative to ask him.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMason took a bite of his toast. After a pause, he shook his head. “Nothing.” She forgot about what she said just a second ago! She’s a playgirl! I can’t be bothered with her right now.

Janet obviously did not believe his answer. After all, he was passionate and intimate with her yesterday and he had a complete change of attitude now. It was a 180-degree change. He is a playboy! In any case, I am not sure why, but I just want to be nice to him. Therefore, she put down the toast in her hand and took a new piece of bread. Then, she coated the toast carefully with a layer of beef sauce before handing it to him. “Eat,” she commanded firmly.

Mason was stunned to silence for a few seconds. His lips twitched into a faint smile, but he looked reluctant as he accepted the piece of toast to have a bite.

After breakfast, the cell phone on the table started to ring. Janet picked it up and she noticed that it was Dylan calling her. Hence, she answered the phone call swiftly while maintaining a blank expression. “Professor Fontaine, what happened?”

A deep and matured voice of a man spoke on the other side of the line. After a while, she nodded. “Sure, I understand.”

Janet stood up to take her bag from the couch. She turned to speak with Mason, “Professor Fontaine wants me to go back to school.”

Mason did not answer her; instead, he cocked a brow at her, as if he did not mind at all.

When she took her bag and was about to leave, she added, “I might return later than usual this evening. You don’t have to pick me up.”

He remained silent, but his brow shot upward in exaggeration.

She had no time to reflect on his reaction and she assumed that he was reacting to her comments in the bedroom. “I’m leaving.”

Mason remained silent, but he frowned even deeper now.

He sat on the large couch while loosening his tie. The originally neat tie knot was now in a mess. His deep scowl reflected his mood at that moment.

The morning sun reflected the cold and unhappy expression on his face.

“Young Master Mason, what happened?” Sean noticed something was amiss at the dining table that morning.

However, Mason kept quiet. His cold gaze darkened significantly and his frown suddenly deepened. A trace of confusion flashed through his eyes.

After a long pause, he finally broke the silence. “What is the reason for a woman to claim that she wants to get married, but denies it once she leaves the bed?”

Sean was astounded for a few seconds and he looked dumbfounded. “Young Master Mason, I am sorry, but I have no idea.” Forget about marriage, I don’t even have a girlfriend.

Mason glanced at him casually, but it was obvious that he was not too happy about the situation. “If.”

Sean was rendered speechless when he heard that.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 995

Sean refused to answer Mason for the longest time. “Yesterday, she held me while claiming that she wants to marry me, but she denied it once she got out of bed,” Mason explained unhappily while cocking a brow.

Sean was at a loss and he thought, I see, Young Master Mason was bothered by this earlier in the morning! “Young Master Mason, in all honesty, I am not well-versed in these matters. However, based on Miss Jackson’s personality, she is not the type of person who would deny things that she has said. Maybe she was joking earlier.”

Mason’s expression changed drastically when he heard that and he smirked. “A joke?” He laughed mirthlessly. It was obvious that he was unhappy with Sean’s answer! In fact, he seemed upset about it.

Sean noticed that something was amiss, so he changed his approach. “Miss Jackson must have forgotten about it. Why don’t you bring it up again when you have a chance?”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryAfter considering all the possibilities and coupled with Sean’s reply, Mason believed that the theory of Janet forgetting about what she said was the most plausible reason.

Therefore, he grunted in response. “I will ask her to marry me after resolving the issue with Shadow 1.”

Something flashed through Sean’s gaze. Miss Jackson is still in freshman class. Will she agree to it? Will she become Mrs. Lowry very soon?

In Woodsbury University’s laboratory, a few penultimate year students from the medical school were gathered together in a whispered discussion.

“I heard that Professor Fontaine is planning to assign a freshman together with us to participate in the surgery.”

“That can’t be true! Are you kidding me? My guess is that a freshman hasn’t even learned the most basic clinical skills.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“That’s right! Is your news inaccurate?”

“Impossible! I heard Professor Fontaine mentioning it in person. I think her name is Jane Jackson or something.”

“Janet Jackson, you mean?”

“Isn’t Janet Jackson the champion for the International Medical Competition for Novice? She defeated Melissa Rocher from the Rocher Family in Yobril!”

“Oh, d*mn! If it’s really Janet, she might very well join us for the surgery training.”

“Oh, d*mn! Isn’t that rather unfair?! After all, we are in our third year, but she has the opportunity to operate when she’s still in her freshman year.”

“She is the champion of the International Medical Competition. Fairness does not exist in this situation.”

“That is right. Professor Fontaine is obviously taking her side. What could we possibly say?”

“However, if Tina had participated in the competition this time, she could have won it too.”

“That is right! If it was not for Tina Favre’s health conditions causing her to miss the previous training and her inability to participate in the competition, I am sure she would have performed well.”

The person, named Tina Favre, was a third year student in the medical school. She had always been an outstanding student in the medical school from freshman year to third year. She was the top student in Woodsbury University’s internal exams, which included both the theory and practical exams. Unfortunately, she could not take part in the training previously due to her health conditions. That was why she could not take part in the competition.

At that moment, a woman’s voice suddenly rang outside the door. Her tone was not impressive and she sounded ordinary too. “What are you guys chatting about?”

The senior students, who were in the medical laboratory, turned when they heard the voice.

It was Tina standing outside the door.

Speaking of the Devil.

Those closer to Tina approached her swiftly and they started to gossip. “Tina, have you heard that Professor Fontaine is assigning a freshman student in our practical project? This means that we are forced to complete our assignments with an inexperienced freshman.”

What? Does Professor Fontaine actually expect third year students, who are about to graduate, to work with a freshman to complete a surgery? Isn’t that a joke? Who could have received such an honor to complete the practical subject with us?!

Tina frowned slightly and she asked, “A freshman? Is it the one named Janet Jackson?””

“That’s right! Who else is popular in the medical world apart from her?” a few penultimate year students commented in jealousy.

When we were in our freshman year, we were still learning about basic medical theory. Now, Janet is allowed to practice her surgical skills when she’s still in her freshman year! It is impossible not to be jealous of her.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 996

Tina scowled deeply and the color drained from her face. “Did Professor Fontaine say that himself?”

“In any case, who else is there apart from her in freshman year?”

She ignored the group while maintaining a blank expression. Then, she made her way to her seat.

If it weren’t for my high fever, which resulted in me being hospitalized, I wouldn’t have missed the training. In fact, I wouldn’t have missed the competition as a result. I watched the live broadcast too. Janet was exceptional in the practical session, indeed, but her skills aren’t as outstanding as exaggerated by the outside world. Melissa Rocher was on par with her. However, I have no idea why the judges selected Janet as the champion of the International Medical Competition in the end. My guess is that something happened behind the scenes. It looks like Janet has a strong background because even Melissa pales in comparison. In any case, it’s fine that she won the competition by relying on her background, but I can’t believe that she didn’t appreciate it. She gave up the chance of her photoshoot in the International Medical Journal. What a waste! She pretends as if she doesn’t care despite winning the competition. It is truly a waste of her acting skills.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThe group of third year students were discussing among themselves, but Tina did not join them; instead, she waited quietly at her seat.

At the same time, somebody suddenly opened the laboratory door. Dylan was wearing a white coat and a pair of black-rimmed glasses when he walked in.

A few students rose to welcome him. “Professor Fontaine, welcome.”

Dylan pushed his glasses and he smiled warmly. “Have a seat. You are interns specifically selected from the medical school’s batch of third year students. You will start practicing surgery next week. The main reason why I have summoned you today is to inform you about something. I am including a freshman in the surgery training this time.”

The medical school’s third year students exchanged glances among themselves when they heard that.

Dylan adjusted his glasses and he announced sternly, “The freshman student is Janet Jackson.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryBefore the group could react, somebody opened the lab door again. A woman entered the lab; she had one hand in her pocket and the other holding her bag. She had a lazy and cold aura about her—it was an illusion by her to deter others from coming close.

Janet might be the popular person in the university now, but some students had never met her in person. From a close distance, it seemed that she looked much prettier than when she was onstage or on television. Her skin was fair and delicate and she looked almost like a character from a comic book. Originally, Tina was both the department’s genius and beauty queen. However, now that her course mates had met Janet, they felt that Tina was a mere pretty girl, at best. When she was compared to such a beauty like Janet, she suddenly seemed insignificant.

Janet glanced at everybody in the lab and she greeted them coolly, “Nice to meet you, my seniors.”

The medical school’s third year students wore a complex expression, but they did not respond to her.

“From today onward, Janet will be considered one of the members in the penultimate year’s surgery training. I hope that students who are more capable would help her as much as possible.” With that, Dylan turned to Janet. “Ask your seniors for help if you need guidance. They’ll be more than happy to assist you.”

Janet stood still while mumbling an acknowledgement. Although she left a good impression, everybody could not be friendly with her because she would be completing the training surgery with them. They were afraid that she would bring them down.

Just as Janet started looking for a seat, everybody exchanged glances and they started discussing in hushed tones.

“I did not expect the rumors to be true! Professor Fontaine has actually selected her.”

“Yeah. I am not comfortable with the arrangement of a freshman joining us out of nowhere.”

“I wonder if she’d work well with us.”

“That’s right; Professor Fontaine did not take us into consideration before arranging for her to join us.”

“I am sure that she will trouble Tina this time.”

“Why do you say that?”

“Well, because Tina’s basic medical skills are the best among us.”

“That is true. Well, at least I do not have to guide Janet.”

“Yeah, thank God.”

Although they were whispering to each other, Dylan could hear them clearly.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 997

Dylan cleared his throat while he glanced at Janet. He coughed dryly while announcing in a stern and grave tone, “The sudden arrangement of Janet joining you guys to complete the surgical training is not just my decision; it is also the university’s decision! Although she did not want to take part, she has the right to since she is the champion of the International Medical Competition this year. Kindly win the championship if you have an opinion about this.”

Janet sat at the side. She folded her arms and she looked especially lazy and relaxed.

It is true that I rejected Dylan more than 3 times half an hour ago. However, since I did not take part in the International Medical Magazine’s photoshoot, outsiders might start suspecting me if I refuse to join the surgical training. In the end, I had to agree to it. Before this, I have always operated as the chief surgeon, so I have never been a surgeon’s assistant. Now that I have the chance, I might be able to experience something new, after all. Besides, I’d like to have a look at Woodsbury University’s surgical facilities.

After listening to Dylan’s announcement, the student appeared rather embarrassed. “Well…”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryEveryone was rendered speechless by his announcement. Suddenly, somebody exclaimed, “If Tina did not miss the competition due to health reasons, she might have been the winner in the competition!”

The voice was not loud, but it reverberated in the room since the lab was especially quiet. Similarly, Tina heard the voice clearly.

She patted the person’s shoulder, but she appeared indifferent. “It’s fine; just drop it.” She said those words loudly because she wanted others to know that she was not a calculative person. Besides, based on my capabilities, it is unnecessary to be calculative with others. After all, Professor Fontaine is merely doing Janet a favor by allowing her to participate in the surgical training.

The student stopped speaking after Tina’s comment. Then, the lab returned to its eerie silence.

Dylan added once everybody was quiet, “As usual, I will accompany you for the medical school’s third year’s surgical training. However, the university and I have decided that I should withdraw from the surgical training this year.”

Everybody looked at each other when they heard that.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“What does that mean? Is he withdrawing from the surgical training? Does that mean that we are operating as the chief surgeon despite being interns?”

“That can’t be right. This is a life-and-death situation! What would we do if the patient dies under our care as a result of our mistake?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Besides, Janet has joined us this time. We are done for!”

“Yes, what if a patient ends up dying on the table? What should we do if this ends up as a lawsuit between doctor and patient?”

“Professor Fontaine, you have too much confidence in us.”

The medical students were panicking and they started to openly predict the worst.

Dylan observed them while maintaining a blank façade. “My withdrawal does not mean that nobody is joining you.” He sounded helpless.

After that, the medical students blinked a few times in confusion. They looked bewildered because they were confused now.

“In conjunction with my withdrawal from the surgical training, a bigshot from the medical community would be joining you.”

A bigshot from the medical community? Who could it be? The crowd looked at each other while swallowing in silence. They were full of anticipation and confusion.

Dylan chuckled lightly since everybody seemed interested. “This time, the person joining you is none other than the renowned Doctor Sandra.”

After his announcement, Janet, who wore a stoic expression, raised her eyebrows suddenly. A trace of bewilderment and confusion flashed through her eyes.

The medical student erupted in excitement after his announcement too.

“What? Doctor Sandra? Did I hear it wrong?”

“Come on; has Woodsbury University actually succeeded in inviting Doctor Sandra? I’m guessing that’s a joke.”

“That’s right. Doctor Sandra has always been very mysterious. She did not even attend the last International Medical Competition. Why would she show up at Woodsbury University?”

“Yeah, the surgery training is just a small experiment. How could you possibly invite her to work with us?”

“Professor Fontaine, are you sure that you heard it right?”

Everybody stared at Dylan in disbelief.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 998

Janet folded her arms as a trace of amusement flashed through her gaze. She asked lazily, “Professor Fontaine, I suppose Doctor Sandra isn’t aware of the invitation?”

Dylan was stunned into silence for a few moments and he chuckled in embarrassment. “The university is still looking for her. If everything goes according to plan, she should give us the opportunity based on Woodsbury University’s reputation. That is why I am informing you all beforehand!”

“Oh,” Janet responded when she heard that, but it was clear that she was stifling a laugh.

From the medical students’ point of view, it was all for nothing.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThey felt as though they had fallen from Heaven to Hell.

We almost believed that Doctor Sandra would join us for our surgical training. Sigh. Well, like I said, Doctor Sandra is a prominent person. Why would she trouble herself to come to such a small city to complete a surgery training with us?

Dylan realized that he had made a large promise when he saw how disappointed the medical students were. He laughed awkwardly before announcing, “Well, that’s the decision for now. Alright, that’s enough discussion. We are about to revise the contents of the surgery. Everybody should seriously take notes.”

“Fine.” The medical students sighed helplessly while taking their notebooks out.

Dylan gave an hour-long lecture. The first 10 minutes was an introduction for Janet while the rest of the time was dedicated to the surgery. After an hour, he left the lab.

The medical students started to rise from their seats to leave the lab.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet picked up her pen and she was just about to leave after closing her notebook.

Suddenly, Janet heard some footsteps. She looked down and saw the person approaching her—she was wearing a pair of white sandals and the hem of her skirt was also in the same color. The person stopped right beside Janet’s seat.

She looked up and she saw another girl approaching her. “My name is Tina Favre and I am a penultimate year medical student. Feel free to address me as your senior or Tina.” She was extremely polite and nice.

“My name is Janet Jackson.”

“Well, of course I know you, Miss Jackson. After all, you are the popular one in the medical school right now.” Tina smiled at her. “However, the surgery consists of subjects from the third year. Feel free to approach me if you have any questions at all.” Then, she looked down at Janet’s notes on the table.

Tina’s eyes narrowed and she was slightly shocked because the notebook was empty without any notes. After considering the possibilities, her shock gradually turned into a look of understanding. Earlier, Professor Fontaine was giving a lecture from the third year’s subjects. It’s only natural for Janet not to have written anything if she didn’t understand a word he said. She was on the verge of bursting into laughter when she came to that conclusion. Professor Fontaine is forcing Janet into our surgical training. In all honesty, it’s useless to rush things because it will only backfire. She will never know what she doesn’t know.

Tina chuckled pointedly. “Miss Jackson, did you understand the lecture from Professor Fontaine earlier?”

“Huh?” Janet was confused.

Tina pointed at Janet’s empty notebook. “I noticed that you haven’t jotted down any notes. Why don’t you copy mine?” She said that louder than usual, as though she deliberately wanted everyone else to hear her.

It so happened that her wish was granted because the rest of the students in the lab approached them. They glanced at Janet’s notebook while smirking at her.

Nevertheless, Janet did not seem bothered because she closed her notebook lazily before leaving.

“Tina, did she refuse to copy your notes even after you offered her?” Everybody started asking as they stared at Janet’s back view as she left.

Tina nodded and she commented with a sly grin, “Yeah, I suppose she must have memorized the contents in her brain, so she doesn’t need notes.”

“How is that possible?” A few of them flipped through their notes. “There are a total of 7 to 8 pages. She can’t possibly memorize everything even if she is talented at memorizing.”

“That’s right. Besides, Professor Fontaine was lecturing based on the third year’s syllabus.”

“Do you guys think that she didn’t understand a word earlier, but she just couldn’t bring herself to ask Tina for help?”

“Oh, f*ck!! She didn’t take notes because she didn’t understand a thing earlier!”

“Oh, my God! It seems that is exactly what’s going on here. In that case, it makes sense now.”

That explanation sounded logical to everyone in the lab.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 999

At the same time, on the other hand, Janet’s phone, which was in her pocket, rang as soon as she stepped out of the laboratory.

After looking at the screen, she knew what the conversation would be as soon as she saw that the caller was Lee.

Sure enough, he called to inform about the surgery training at Woodsbury University.

Robert’s offer was not much—he only offered five million.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryFive million was indeed a small amount for Sandra, whose fees were usually in the tens of millions.

Lee continued, “Janet, your university is wealthy—their cash flow is hundreds of millions, yet they are only offering five million as your appearance fee. Isn’t this slightly too stingy of them? If you were not from Woodsbury University, I wouldn’t even call you. I would have rejected them immediately.”

Janet chuckled lightly. “Then, just do so.”

“Huh?” He was shocked to hear that. “This is your university, yet you don’t plan to show them any respect? I bet Robert, that old fellow, is going to be immensely disappointed.”

“I’ve already joined the competition as a student of Woodsbury University, so I can’t show up at both places at the same time!”

If I knew that the university was planning to ask Sandra to participate in the surgical training, I wouldn’t have agreed to Professor Fontaine’s request to participate in this operation.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryHence, it was rather difficult for her to be in such a situation because Robert treated her quite well after all.

Upon hearing that, Lee clicked his tongue before he said, “Alright, alright. If Robert complains to me, I’ll ask him to call you directly then.”

Janet was speechless upon hearing that. Alas.

She heaved a sigh before immediately hanging up the phone.

After that, she walked to the medical school.

The minute she walked past the entrance, her coursemates looked at her with a different look.

She could not tell whether they were envious, jealous or if they hated her.

“Janet, I heard that you are going to be a part of the trainees in the surgery training planned for third year students?”

“Yup. We’ve heard the rumors. Are they true?”

“Are you guys serious? Why haven’t I heard of that?”

A few people looked up at Janet as they spoke in envious tones.

After she placed her notes on the table, she nodded impassively.

Her reaction caused her other coursemates to be incredibly envious of her.

“Oh wow! Professor Fontaine treats you well! If you are really joining the surgery, you would be the first person in Woodsbury University to accomplish such feat!”

“Oh my God! I’m so envious of you! If only Professor Fontaine approves of my techniques!”

“Yeah, but we did not win the International Medicine Competition by being in first place.”

“Even though you’re just there as an assistant, you have already received this practical opportunity as a freshman. When you are in third year, is Professor Fontaine going to appoint you as the lead surgeon?”

“Oh my God! It’s not impossible now that you have said it out loud!”

Obviously, the other coursemates were envious of Janet, but they became less confident after they raised their heads and looked at the wall opposite them where the International Medicine Competition’s trophy was placed.

Meanwhile, Janet merely sat down without any changes in her expression.

Abby opened her notebook on the desk to take a look, but she was surprised to discover that it was completely empty. “Janet, I heard that the surgery training is starting next week, but why is your notebook completely empty?” Our seniors are already quite knowledgeable and experienced. If this continues, the glory will all be theirs.

Janet merely replied nonchalantly, “Ahh… I’m too lazy to take notes.”

At that moment, a girl behind her suddenly heaved a sigh.

Janet turned to see Sharon in low spirits. “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Sharon merely raised her head and sighed again. “Before you arrived, I was planning to borrow your notebook. However, I didn’t know that you are such a pro that you don’t even need to take notes—they are all in your brain.”

Upon hearing that, Janet laughed quietly. “Why? Are you also interested in the surgery training?”

Sharon looked excited when she heard that. “Of course. So many medical students dream of joining the surgery training.” With that, she lowered her head in disappointment. “However, looking at my capabilities, I’m afraid that I don’t even have the right to just be a spectator at the surgery.”

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 1000

Ever since the International Medicine Competition was done and dusted, Sharon was already questioning herself if she was suited for medicine.

The best example to show the difference between a genius and an average person was the difference between Janet and herself.

Upon hearing that, Janet’s eyes merely narrowed, but she did not utter a word.

At this moment, the phone in her pocket vibrated before the ringtone quickly followed.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryShe took out her phone and had a look—it was Lee. I bet he is calling because he couldn’t come to a conclusion with Robert.

Janet let out a slight ‘tsk’ before she got up and walked outside lazily.

“I’m going out to take a phone call.”

After she went to the corridor, she finally answered the call.

“What’s up?” Janet arched her eyebrows with a teasing smile on her face. “You can’t pacify him?”

Lee was quite annoyed by Robert.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Robert called me numerous times in misery, pleading for you to show up. I think you better talk to him yourself.”

He had taken many orders for Janet previously, but this was the first person who was insistent with his request.

When she heard the impatience in Lee’s voice, she laughed and replied in exasperation, “Fine, then. Agree to their request, but I have a condition.”

Upon hearing that, Lee was dumbfounded. She didn’t agree to this before, so why is she agreeing to it now?

However, he was more curious about her request. “Go ahead.”

“Tell him to include Sharon in the surgery. She’s a first year medical student in Woodsbury University.”

“Sharon Nathan? Your coursemate?”

Janet hummed in agreement.

“A-A-Alright,” Lee replied hastily.

This is my first time seeing Janet taking care of others so much.

Meanwhile, on the other side in Yobril, after Melissa signed the contract that was worth one billion, the various news companies were quick to change their stances. The articles that mocked her were immediately taken down and replaced by articles that praised her stellar performance.

The headlines of the news changed from ‘Melissa Rocher—the destroyer of the good reputation upheld by Rocher Family?’ to ‘Huge turn of events—Melissa Rocher signed a contract worth one billion that might pave a new way for the Rocher Family’.

Even the members of the medical team from the Fuller Corporation treated her much better after that.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You really can’t underestimate Melissa at all. She earned the one-billion contract all on her own.”

“Yeah. I heard the competition is quite fierce for this contract. I can’t believe that Melissa was able to get it.”

“Say, if it were Janet from Sandfort City, do you think she’s able to take it?”

“Janet? I don’t think so. After all, she’s just a first year student. How would the employer be relieved to hand a one-billion contract to a young girl?”

“True, that makes sense.”

“Melissa is still quite capable after all!”

The conversations between the internal members of Fuller Corporation’s medical team continued to reach Melissa’s ears.

In an instant, she felt a sense of security, as if she rose to heaven from hell.

She took a deep breath and was about to open the door of the laboratory when a voice suddenly rang in the corridor.

“Miss Rocher.”

Melissa turned to see Sheldon walking toward her.

“What’s up, Mr. Fuller?”

He stopped walking and pursed his lips as he frowned. “I heard from my team that you don’t need any assistance?”

He felt rather incredulous to hear that she did not even need an assistant for the one-billion contract.

Upon hearing that, her eyes flickered as she nodded ambiguously. “Yes, I don’t need anyone for the time being. You know that this is my first time taking such a huge contract. Hence, I want to depend on my capabilities alone. Apart from that, the employer, Mr. Hills, also confirmed that all is good as long as I submit the product in a month. There’s nothing to be worried about.”

Worried that Sheldon would be suspicious, Melissa stated a bunch of excuses at one go.

“Is that so?” His eyes narrowed in doubt. “Fine. If you need anything, just let me know.”

“Alright.”

“By the way, what does Mr. Hills want in the end?”

As Sheldon did not comprehend much about medicine and Melissa attended with the President alone the last time, he did not understand what she was researching on.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 991

Melissa wore a complex expression and she kept her head bowed without answering him.

A trace of thrill flashed through the President’s eyes, but he hid it straight away. “Since you’ve made your choice, Miss Rocher, I will sign a contract with you.”

After saying that, he walked back to the couch to place the contract in her hands. “Have a look at it. If there’s no issue, the experiment starts tomorrow. The faster, the better.”

Melissa inhaled deeply while slowly accepting the contract. She had a look at it before asking him, “Mr. Hills, I hope that you’d keep the research content a secret before the experiment succeeds.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Of course.” He grinned at her. I want nothing more than to make sure that she keeps this a secret anyway.

Melissa accepted the President’s fountain pen. After making up her mind, she placed her signature on the dotted lines.

There is no going back after signing the contract. It’s true; Mr. Hills is right—if the experiment succeeds, I will become the pioneer in the medical community. By that time, how could anyone take the moral high road by condemning me? Melissa’s lips curled into a smirk and she laughed bitterly.

Meanwhile, the bureau somewhere in Barnsford City did not help Mason with much. Well, at least I know about Shadow 1 now. As long as I continue investigating with Shadow 1 as a clue, I am sure that I’d be able to find out who is pulling the strings behind the scene.

Mason returned to the Lowry Residence in Sandfort City after a long journey.

The servants had already prepared a warm dinner for him. She greeted him respectfully upon his return, “Young Master Mason, you are finally home.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryHe nodded while scanning the surroundings casually. After taking off his coat, he asked, “Where is she?”

“Young Master Mason, are you referring to Miss Jackson?”

He nodded discreetly while grunting softly in acknowledgement.

“Miss Jackson left shortly after you and she has yet to return.”

Mason was stumped for a few moments and his expression stiffened. He looked slightly anxious when he asked, “Did she say where she went?”

“No, she did not. By the way, Miss Jackson’s friend phoned yesterday. She said that she’s looking for you and she sounded rather panicked.”

Mason scowled deeply. “Looking for me, you say? What is her name?” he asked.

The servant stood still to recall the conversation over the phone and she suddenly remembered. “I think her name is Lara.”

“Lara?” he mumbled to himself. I can’t make sense of the situation. After considering his options, he looked down while walking toward the couch. He sat down in silence for a few seconds. In the end, he took out his phone to dial a number.

The phone rang a few times, but it connected swiftly. “Hello.”

“Babe, where are you?” Mason’s husky and alluring voice sounded clear and his tone reflected how terribly he missed her.

Janet answered quickly—she sounded slightly indifferent, but amused. “I am just outside the door.”

“Huh?” Mason’s response had a strong nasal twang.

“Come out.” After hearing her words, he stood up from the couch abruptly and he charged out of the door like a maniac.

Janet was talking on the phone while walking forward.

Mason’s gaze darkened and he ran straight toward the woman outside the door.

After that, he reached out to tightly hold her in his arms. He embraced her while breathing in her scent.

He immediately detected a faint, but unfamiliar shower gel scent. It set alarm bells on his sensitive receptors. “Where did you go?” His voice was deep, but it sounded husky and seductive.

Janet snorted lightly. “In that case, where did you go, Mr. Lowry?”

He didn’t even inform me when he left. Instead, he conveyed the message via a servant. I know he did that because he didn’t want to wake me up and disturb my sleep. However, I just have to tease him.

“Let’s go in and I will tell you everything.” He held her tiny waist to lead her into the house.

Janet bobbed her head and she allowed him to hold her.

I have been missing her for the past few days. My empty heart feels full to the brim the moment I saw her just now. I simply can’t describe my feelings with words. In any case, I just really miss her.

During dinner time, he placed a piece of meat into Janet’s bowl. “The servant mentioned that your subordinate, Lara, was looking for me. Did something happen?” he asked.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 992

Janet ate the piece of meat while she answered indifferently, “Oh, it’s fine now.”

“Huh?” Mason put his bowl and chopsticks down to look at her.

She took a bite of the vegetables and finished chewing it before she spoke again, “In that case, where were you, Mr. Lowry? You better quickly tell me.” I am quite curious about the development of his investigation.

He picked up his chopsticks to continue placing different dishes into her bowl. He answered her calmly, “I managed to investigate, but I want to get rid of the root cause, so I will need more time.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet did not expect such quick progress in the matter. She placed her chopsticks down to stare at the deep, dark circles around his eyes. “Don’t exhaust yourself. You have to pace yourself.”

Mason held her petite hand with a smile. “It is worth it.” Everything is worth it for her sake. Right now, as I look at her fingers, somehow, I feel as though something is missing. After a life-and-death experience, I am convinced that I can’t lose her. Maybe I will promise her my life after this matter has been resolved, but I wonder if she’ll agree. He chuckled in a rumbling voice—his laughter was filled with love and tenderness for Janet.

Her fingertips felt ticklish from his touch, so she quickly withdrew her hands. Then, she hid her embarrassment by masking it as a yawn.

Janet’s phoenix eyes appeared tired.

“Be a good girl and head upstairs for a shower. You need to sleep soon.”

She nodded while leaving the dining table to make her way up to the second floor.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryShe was too exhausted to use the bathtub; instead, she planned to take a quick shower before heading to bed.

Just when she was removing her last piece of clothing, somebody opened the bathroom door suddenly.

Janet looked up sleepily and before she realized what was going on, she saw Mason walking into the bathroom. He was half-naked from the waist up and his trousers had wet patches.

She was slightly confused. “I am not done with my shower…”

He lifted his arm up to turn off the tap. Then, he picked her up while chuckling in amusement, “You will have to shower again later, anyway.”

Janet was rendered speechless when she heard that.

Maso carried her out of the shower. Apart from her last piece of clothing, she was naked.

“I’m sleepy.” Janet rubbed her eyes; it was obvious she was not interested in what he had in mind.

However, Mason was not deterred and he instead placed her on the basin top. Then, he bent down to plant a hot and passionate kiss on her corner of her lips. He kissed her in a sensual and lingering manner.

Janet felt as if he was about to suck the breath away from her chest. It had been a long time since he was in such a dire need for her. She could not stop him, so she patted his shoulders. “Mason, back to the bedroom.”

He bent down to kiss her eyes and his voice was deep and husky. “No, I can’t wait any longer.”

Janet took a step back and she cupped his handsome face with her hands. “It’s only a few steps away. Is this necessary?” she asked rhetorically. My body is pressed against the basin. It feels cold and hard. How could it possibly feel good for me?

“Check the duration from the last time I’ve had you. How long has it been? I am a man.” Mason gritted his teeth and he started nibbling her icy-cold earlobe. “You are always wearing thin pajamas to sleep while wrapping your hands around me. Isn’t that a form of invitation?” he asked, as though he was complaining too.

Does she even know how seductive she is when she says something sensual to me while hugging me to sleep or when she speaks in her dreams? I am already at my limits for enduring it for such a long time.

“Invitation, my a*s.” Janet rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t try to blame me when you are in the mood for this.”

Mason chuckled in amusement when he heard her accusations. “Yes. Yes, I want it. Well, do I have your permission?” he asked in a deep voice.

She did not answer him; instead, she raised her leg to kick his chest lightly.

Janet’s fair and small foot traced lightly against Mason’s body. I am not a man if I do not do something under such circumstances.

He reached out to grab her foot and he pulled her down to his lower body. Mason mumbled in a husky voice, “Babe…”

Since he did not look like he was in a rush anymore, Janet snorted lightly at him, “Mason.”

“I do not like that name.” Mason’s hands froze and he pinched her waist gently before he added. “Call me something else.”

She was at a loss for words.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 993

She clenched her jaws stubbornly, unwilling to speak. However, Mason would not release her at that critical moment.

“Janet, try calling me again. You have to address me with the name that you were previously used to.”

She finally could not endure it anymore. She moaned and there were tears in the corners of her eyes. “Mason.” I haven’t addressed him in such an intimate manner for a long time, so I am not used to it all of a sudden.

Mason was even more energized when he heard her sensual voice. He ended up focusing all of his strength on one point.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet was usually tough, but she was helpless when it came to this. She gritted her teeth before sinking them onto his shoulder. “You are able to bully me because you are a man. If I have one too, I will bully you so hard that you’d surrender to me,” she commented angrily.

“Is that so?” Mason chuckled and his voice was especially hoarse, but he did not stop his movements; instead, he increased the intensity. “I am looking forward to that day. However, before that, you can only stay beneath my body.”

Janet bared her canines and she bit his arm hard.

They were not sure how much time had passed, but they were both exhausted by the time they were done with each other.

She was on his shoulder when she mumbled, “Aren’t we going back to bed?” Why do I have the feeling that he isn’t done?

“We will be back in bed soon enough.” After saying that, Mason changed positions.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet glared at him and she warned him helplessly, but her voice was gravelly at that point, “You should exercise restraint.”

“You should speak less if you want me to end this faster,” his voice was deep and urgent. The sweat on his forehead dripped down her body. I suppose she isn’t aware that her breath and moans excite me immensely.

Janet sighed—her hips and limbs were weak and limp. In the end, she gave up resisting him.

Amidst the night, Mason finally let out a guttural growl and he finally stopped moving. He locked his arms around her waist in a domineering and intimate way. Then, he asked in a husky voice, “Promise me that you will always stay by my side, alright?”

Janet, who was fast asleep, did not answer him.

Mason pinched her nose to punish her while asking her persistently, “Will you stay by my side?”

This time, Janet, who was fast asleep, finally responded. She opened her eyes in a daze. After glancing at the man, who was lying beside her, she answered him, “Sure, we will always be together… We will always be together and we’ll get married.”

Mason’s originally clear eyes turned dark when he heard the words ‘get married’. He felt an indescribable feeling surge through his chest at that moment. I don’t care if she’s just sleep-talking or whether she’s sincere. I have to realize what she just said. He stood up to carry Janet, who was on the basin, into the shower to clean her up.

The two of them came out of the shower after 20 minutes.

He placed her carefully on the bed.

He was extremely careful and gentle, but she woke up anyway.

Janet opened her eyes and the sharp discomfort she felt reminded how hard they were going at it earlier. We did it from 9:00PM until 4:00AM—that is 7 hours long. We did it more than 7 times. Oh, my God! A man who has abstained for too long is worse than a starved wolf.

“Ouch.” She was in pain. She slumped onto the bed again when she tried getting up.

Mason had some medication in his hands when he entered the room. He was amused, but his heart ached for her when he saw how weak she looked. “Stop moving.”

Janet glared at him because she was frustrated. Why should I be tortured and motionless on the bed, but he’s still standing while making fun of me? Well, isn’t it just a rod? What’s so awesome about it?

She was fuming when she commented deliberately, “Mr. Lowry, you have admirable stamina. You are suited to work as a gigolo.”

Mason was at a loss for words when he heard that. He squinted at her suddenly and his gaze flashed menacingly in a warning manner.

He reached out to pick her up from the bed. Then, he placed her on his thighs when he teased her, “In that case, what do you think about my skills, Babe? I suppose it feels good, right?”

“Hmm,” Janet answered weakly. “At best, it’s average, but I think it’s a good choice to order your services once in a while.”

Mason’s handsome face soured straight away when he heard that. Is she treating me as a tool to vent her frustrations?

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 994

“Babe, do you still remember what you said in the bathroom earlier?” He was not annoyed, but he wanted to know whether she was serious about getting married or if she was just joking.

Janet seemed indifferent. “What did I say?” I don’t remember.

True enough, she doesn’t remember anything. I am sure that she just mentioned it for fun. The look of joy vanished from his eyes as he lifted her pajamas in silence. Then, he squeezed some medicine on his finger to smear it on her injured body parts. It felt cold, but he was tender with her. However, there was something strange about his expression.

Janet blinked her eyes and she asked Mason in confusion. “Tell me—what did I say?” He hooked his finger angrily when he heard that, making her shiver involuntarily. “What are you doing?” She looked up at him while complaining in frustration.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMason pressed his lips together and his voice was deep and gravelly. “Little liar.” Does she know how happy I was when she mentioned that we should get married?

What is wrong with him? Janet glared at him. She snatched the tube of medication from him. “I will do it myself.”

This time, he did not persist. Instead, he stood rooted to the spot for a few moments before finally turning to leave the bedroom.

Janet stared at Mason’s lonely and dejected back view and somehow, she felt lost. Did I say something I shouldn’t have said earlier? I don’t think I did. Did I say something to hurt his pride?

At the dining table, he ate his breakfast without speaking to her.

She was chewing on her toast and she stole a glance at him. “What is wrong with you?” She could not read his mind, so she had no choice but to take the initiative to ask him.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryMason took a bite of his toast. After a pause, he shook his head. “Nothing.” She forgot about what she said just a second ago! She’s a playgirl! I can’t be bothered with her right now.

Janet obviously did not believe his answer. After all, he was passionate and intimate with her yesterday and he had a complete change of attitude now. It was a 180-degree change. He is a playboy! In any case, I am not sure why, but I just want to be nice to him. Therefore, she put down the toast in her hand and took a new piece of bread. Then, she coated the toast carefully with a layer of beef sauce before handing it to him. “Eat,” she commanded firmly.

Mason was stunned to silence for a few seconds. His lips twitched into a faint smile, but he looked reluctant as he accepted the piece of toast to have a bite.

After breakfast, the cell phone on the table started to ring. Janet picked it up and she noticed that it was Dylan calling her. Hence, she answered the phone call swiftly while maintaining a blank expression. “Professor Fontaine, what happened?”

A deep and matured voice of a man spoke on the other side of the line. After a while, she nodded. “Sure, I understand.”

Janet stood up to take her bag from the couch. She turned to speak with Mason, “Professor Fontaine wants me to go back to school.”

Mason did not answer her; instead, he cocked a brow at her, as if he did not mind at all.

When she took her bag and was about to leave, she added, “I might return later than usual this evening. You don’t have to pick me up.”

He remained silent, but his brow shot upward in exaggeration.

She had no time to reflect on his reaction and she assumed that he was reacting to her comments in the bedroom. “I’m leaving.”

Mason remained silent, but he frowned even deeper now.

He sat on the large couch while loosening his tie. The originally neat tie knot was now in a mess. His deep scowl reflected his mood at that moment.

The morning sun reflected the cold and unhappy expression on his face.

“Young Master Mason, what happened?” Sean noticed something was amiss at the dining table that morning.

However, Mason kept quiet. His cold gaze darkened significantly and his frown suddenly deepened. A trace of confusion flashed through his eyes.

After a long pause, he finally broke the silence. “What is the reason for a woman to claim that she wants to get married, but denies it once she leaves the bed?”

Sean was astounded for a few seconds and he looked dumbfounded. “Young Master Mason, I am sorry, but I have no idea.” Forget about marriage, I don’t even have a girlfriend.

Mason glanced at him casually, but it was obvious that he was not too happy about the situation. “If.”

Sean was rendered speechless when he heard that.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 995

Sean refused to answer Mason for the longest time. “Yesterday, she held me while claiming that she wants to marry me, but she denied it once she got out of bed,” Mason explained unhappily while cocking a brow.

Sean was at a loss and he thought, I see, Young Master Mason was bothered by this earlier in the morning! “Young Master Mason, in all honesty, I am not well-versed in these matters. However, based on Miss Jackson’s personality, she is not the type of person who would deny things that she has said. Maybe she was joking earlier.”

Mason’s expression changed drastically when he heard that and he smirked. “A joke?” He laughed mirthlessly. It was obvious that he was unhappy with Sean’s answer! In fact, he seemed upset about it.

Sean noticed that something was amiss, so he changed his approach. “Miss Jackson must have forgotten about it. Why don’t you bring it up again when you have a chance?”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryAfter considering all the possibilities and coupled with Sean’s reply, Mason believed that the theory of Janet forgetting about what she said was the most plausible reason.

Therefore, he grunted in response. “I will ask her to marry me after resolving the issue with Shadow 1.”

Something flashed through Sean’s gaze. Miss Jackson is still in freshman class. Will she agree to it? Will she become Mrs. Lowry very soon?

In Woodsbury University’s laboratory, a few penultimate year students from the medical school were gathered together in a whispered discussion.

“I heard that Professor Fontaine is planning to assign a freshman together with us to participate in the surgery.”

“That can’t be true! Are you kidding me? My guess is that a freshman hasn’t even learned the most basic clinical skills.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“That’s right! Is your news inaccurate?”

“Impossible! I heard Professor Fontaine mentioning it in person. I think her name is Jane Jackson or something.”

“Janet Jackson, you mean?”

“Isn’t Janet Jackson the champion for the International Medical Competition for Novice? She defeated Melissa Rocher from the Rocher Family in Yobril!”

“Oh, d*mn! If it’s really Janet, she might very well join us for the surgery training.”

“Oh, d*mn! Isn’t that rather unfair?! After all, we are in our third year, but she has the opportunity to operate when she’s still in her freshman year.”

“She is the champion of the International Medical Competition. Fairness does not exist in this situation.”

“That is right. Professor Fontaine is obviously taking her side. What could we possibly say?”

“However, if Tina had participated in the competition this time, she could have won it too.”

“That is right! If it was not for Tina Favre’s health conditions causing her to miss the previous training and her inability to participate in the competition, I am sure she would have performed well.”

The person, named Tina Favre, was a third year student in the medical school. She had always been an outstanding student in the medical school from freshman year to third year. She was the top student in Woodsbury University’s internal exams, which included both the theory and practical exams. Unfortunately, she could not take part in the training previously due to her health conditions. That was why she could not take part in the competition.

At that moment, a woman’s voice suddenly rang outside the door. Her tone was not impressive and she sounded ordinary too. “What are you guys chatting about?”

The senior students, who were in the medical laboratory, turned when they heard the voice.

It was Tina standing outside the door.

Speaking of the Devil.

Those closer to Tina approached her swiftly and they started to gossip. “Tina, have you heard that Professor Fontaine is assigning a freshman student in our practical project? This means that we are forced to complete our assignments with an inexperienced freshman.”

What? Does Professor Fontaine actually expect third year students, who are about to graduate, to work with a freshman to complete a surgery? Isn’t that a joke? Who could have received such an honor to complete the practical subject with us?!

Tina frowned slightly and she asked, “A freshman? Is it the one named Janet Jackson?””

“That’s right! Who else is popular in the medical world apart from her?” a few penultimate year students commented in jealousy.

When we were in our freshman year, we were still learning about basic medical theory. Now, Janet is allowed to practice her surgical skills when she’s still in her freshman year! It is impossible not to be jealous of her.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 996

Tina scowled deeply and the color drained from her face. “Did Professor Fontaine say that himself?”

“In any case, who else is there apart from her in freshman year?”

She ignored the group while maintaining a blank expression. Then, she made her way to her seat.

If it weren’t for my high fever, which resulted in me being hospitalized, I wouldn’t have missed the training. In fact, I wouldn’t have missed the competition as a result. I watched the live broadcast too. Janet was exceptional in the practical session, indeed, but her skills aren’t as outstanding as exaggerated by the outside world. Melissa Rocher was on par with her. However, I have no idea why the judges selected Janet as the champion of the International Medical Competition in the end. My guess is that something happened behind the scenes. It looks like Janet has a strong background because even Melissa pales in comparison. In any case, it’s fine that she won the competition by relying on her background, but I can’t believe that she didn’t appreciate it. She gave up the chance of her photoshoot in the International Medical Journal. What a waste! She pretends as if she doesn’t care despite winning the competition. It is truly a waste of her acting skills.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThe group of third year students were discussing among themselves, but Tina did not join them; instead, she waited quietly at her seat.

At the same time, somebody suddenly opened the laboratory door. Dylan was wearing a white coat and a pair of black-rimmed glasses when he walked in.

A few students rose to welcome him. “Professor Fontaine, welcome.”

Dylan pushed his glasses and he smiled warmly. “Have a seat. You are interns specifically selected from the medical school’s batch of third year students. You will start practicing surgery next week. The main reason why I have summoned you today is to inform you about something. I am including a freshman in the surgery training this time.”

The medical school’s third year students exchanged glances among themselves when they heard that.

Dylan adjusted his glasses and he announced sternly, “The freshman student is Janet Jackson.”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryBefore the group could react, somebody opened the lab door again. A woman entered the lab; she had one hand in her pocket and the other holding her bag. She had a lazy and cold aura about her—it was an illusion by her to deter others from coming close.

Janet might be the popular person in the university now, but some students had never met her in person. From a close distance, it seemed that she looked much prettier than when she was onstage or on television. Her skin was fair and delicate and she looked almost like a character from a comic book. Originally, Tina was both the department’s genius and beauty queen. However, now that her course mates had met Janet, they felt that Tina was a mere pretty girl, at best. When she was compared to such a beauty like Janet, she suddenly seemed insignificant.

Janet glanced at everybody in the lab and she greeted them coolly, “Nice to meet you, my seniors.”

The medical school’s third year students wore a complex expression, but they did not respond to her.

“From today onward, Janet will be considered one of the members in the penultimate year’s surgery training. I hope that students who are more capable would help her as much as possible.” With that, Dylan turned to Janet. “Ask your seniors for help if you need guidance. They’ll be more than happy to assist you.”

Janet stood still while mumbling an acknowledgement. Although she left a good impression, everybody could not be friendly with her because she would be completing the training surgery with them. They were afraid that she would bring them down.

Just as Janet started looking for a seat, everybody exchanged glances and they started discussing in hushed tones.

“I did not expect the rumors to be true! Professor Fontaine has actually selected her.”

“Yeah. I am not comfortable with the arrangement of a freshman joining us out of nowhere.”

“I wonder if she’d work well with us.”

“That’s right; Professor Fontaine did not take us into consideration before arranging for her to join us.”

“I am sure that she will trouble Tina this time.”

“Why do you say that?”

“Well, because Tina’s basic medical skills are the best among us.”

“That is true. Well, at least I do not have to guide Janet.”

“Yeah, thank God.”

Although they were whispering to each other, Dylan could hear them clearly.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 997

Dylan cleared his throat while he glanced at Janet. He coughed dryly while announcing in a stern and grave tone, “The sudden arrangement of Janet joining you guys to complete the surgical training is not just my decision; it is also the university’s decision! Although she did not want to take part, she has the right to since she is the champion of the International Medical Competition this year. Kindly win the championship if you have an opinion about this.”

Janet sat at the side. She folded her arms and she looked especially lazy and relaxed.

It is true that I rejected Dylan more than 3 times half an hour ago. However, since I did not take part in the International Medical Magazine’s photoshoot, outsiders might start suspecting me if I refuse to join the surgical training. In the end, I had to agree to it. Before this, I have always operated as the chief surgeon, so I have never been a surgeon’s assistant. Now that I have the chance, I might be able to experience something new, after all. Besides, I’d like to have a look at Woodsbury University’s surgical facilities.

After listening to Dylan’s announcement, the student appeared rather embarrassed. “Well…”

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryEveryone was rendered speechless by his announcement. Suddenly, somebody exclaimed, “If Tina did not miss the competition due to health reasons, she might have been the winner in the competition!”

The voice was not loud, but it reverberated in the room since the lab was especially quiet. Similarly, Tina heard the voice clearly.

She patted the person’s shoulder, but she appeared indifferent. “It’s fine; just drop it.” She said those words loudly because she wanted others to know that she was not a calculative person. Besides, based on my capabilities, it is unnecessary to be calculative with others. After all, Professor Fontaine is merely doing Janet a favor by allowing her to participate in the surgical training.

The student stopped speaking after Tina’s comment. Then, the lab returned to its eerie silence.

Dylan added once everybody was quiet, “As usual, I will accompany you for the medical school’s third year’s surgical training. However, the university and I have decided that I should withdraw from the surgical training this year.”

Everybody looked at each other when they heard that.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“What does that mean? Is he withdrawing from the surgical training? Does that mean that we are operating as the chief surgeon despite being interns?”

“That can’t be right. This is a life-and-death situation! What would we do if the patient dies under our care as a result of our mistake?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Besides, Janet has joined us this time. We are done for!”

“Yes, what if a patient ends up dying on the table? What should we do if this ends up as a lawsuit between doctor and patient?”

“Professor Fontaine, you have too much confidence in us.”

The medical students were panicking and they started to openly predict the worst.

Dylan observed them while maintaining a blank façade. “My withdrawal does not mean that nobody is joining you.” He sounded helpless.

After that, the medical students blinked a few times in confusion. They looked bewildered because they were confused now.

“In conjunction with my withdrawal from the surgical training, a bigshot from the medical community would be joining you.”

A bigshot from the medical community? Who could it be? The crowd looked at each other while swallowing in silence. They were full of anticipation and confusion.

Dylan chuckled lightly since everybody seemed interested. “This time, the person joining you is none other than the renowned Doctor Sandra.”

After his announcement, Janet, who wore a stoic expression, raised her eyebrows suddenly. A trace of bewilderment and confusion flashed through her eyes.

The medical student erupted in excitement after his announcement too.

“What? Doctor Sandra? Did I hear it wrong?”

“Come on; has Woodsbury University actually succeeded in inviting Doctor Sandra? I’m guessing that’s a joke.”

“That’s right. Doctor Sandra has always been very mysterious. She did not even attend the last International Medical Competition. Why would she show up at Woodsbury University?”

“Yeah, the surgery training is just a small experiment. How could you possibly invite her to work with us?”

“Professor Fontaine, are you sure that you heard it right?”

Everybody stared at Dylan in disbelief.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 998

Janet folded her arms as a trace of amusement flashed through her gaze. She asked lazily, “Professor Fontaine, I suppose Doctor Sandra isn’t aware of the invitation?”

Dylan was stunned into silence for a few moments and he chuckled in embarrassment. “The university is still looking for her. If everything goes according to plan, she should give us the opportunity based on Woodsbury University’s reputation. That is why I am informing you all beforehand!”

“Oh,” Janet responded when she heard that, but it was clear that she was stifling a laugh.

From the medical students’ point of view, it was all for nothing.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryThey felt as though they had fallen from Heaven to Hell.

We almost believed that Doctor Sandra would join us for our surgical training. Sigh. Well, like I said, Doctor Sandra is a prominent person. Why would she trouble herself to come to such a small city to complete a surgery training with us?

Dylan realized that he had made a large promise when he saw how disappointed the medical students were. He laughed awkwardly before announcing, “Well, that’s the decision for now. Alright, that’s enough discussion. We are about to revise the contents of the surgery. Everybody should seriously take notes.”

“Fine.” The medical students sighed helplessly while taking their notebooks out.

Dylan gave an hour-long lecture. The first 10 minutes was an introduction for Janet while the rest of the time was dedicated to the surgery. After an hour, he left the lab.

The medical students started to rise from their seats to leave the lab.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryJanet picked up her pen and she was just about to leave after closing her notebook.

Suddenly, Janet heard some footsteps. She looked down and saw the person approaching her—she was wearing a pair of white sandals and the hem of her skirt was also in the same color. The person stopped right beside Janet’s seat.

She looked up and she saw another girl approaching her. “My name is Tina Favre and I am a penultimate year medical student. Feel free to address me as your senior or Tina.” She was extremely polite and nice.

“My name is Janet Jackson.”

“Well, of course I know you, Miss Jackson. After all, you are the popular one in the medical school right now.” Tina smiled at her. “However, the surgery consists of subjects from the third year. Feel free to approach me if you have any questions at all.” Then, she looked down at Janet’s notes on the table.

Tina’s eyes narrowed and she was slightly shocked because the notebook was empty without any notes. After considering the possibilities, her shock gradually turned into a look of understanding. Earlier, Professor Fontaine was giving a lecture from the third year’s subjects. It’s only natural for Janet not to have written anything if she didn’t understand a word he said. She was on the verge of bursting into laughter when she came to that conclusion. Professor Fontaine is forcing Janet into our surgical training. In all honesty, it’s useless to rush things because it will only backfire. She will never know what she doesn’t know.

Tina chuckled pointedly. “Miss Jackson, did you understand the lecture from Professor Fontaine earlier?”

“Huh?” Janet was confused.

Tina pointed at Janet’s empty notebook. “I noticed that you haven’t jotted down any notes. Why don’t you copy mine?” She said that louder than usual, as though she deliberately wanted everyone else to hear her.

It so happened that her wish was granted because the rest of the students in the lab approached them. They glanced at Janet’s notebook while smirking at her.

Nevertheless, Janet did not seem bothered because she closed her notebook lazily before leaving.

“Tina, did she refuse to copy your notes even after you offered her?” Everybody started asking as they stared at Janet’s back view as she left.

Tina nodded and she commented with a sly grin, “Yeah, I suppose she must have memorized the contents in her brain, so she doesn’t need notes.”

“How is that possible?” A few of them flipped through their notes. “There are a total of 7 to 8 pages. She can’t possibly memorize everything even if she is talented at memorizing.”

“That’s right. Besides, Professor Fontaine was lecturing based on the third year’s syllabus.”

“Do you guys think that she didn’t understand a word earlier, but she just couldn’t bring herself to ask Tina for help?”

“Oh, f*ck!! She didn’t take notes because she didn’t understand a thing earlier!”

“Oh, my God! It seems that is exactly what’s going on here. In that case, it makes sense now.”

That explanation sounded logical to everyone in the lab.

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 999

At the same time, on the other hand, Janet’s phone, which was in her pocket, rang as soon as she stepped out of the laboratory.

After looking at the screen, she knew what the conversation would be as soon as she saw that the caller was Lee.

Sure enough, he called to inform about the surgery training at Woodsbury University.

Robert’s offer was not much—he only offered five million.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryFive million was indeed a small amount for Sandra, whose fees were usually in the tens of millions.

Lee continued, “Janet, your university is wealthy—their cash flow is hundreds of millions, yet they are only offering five million as your appearance fee. Isn’t this slightly too stingy of them? If you were not from Woodsbury University, I wouldn’t even call you. I would have rejected them immediately.”

Janet chuckled lightly. “Then, just do so.”

“Huh?” He was shocked to hear that. “This is your university, yet you don’t plan to show them any respect? I bet Robert, that old fellow, is going to be immensely disappointed.”

“I’ve already joined the competition as a student of Woodsbury University, so I can’t show up at both places at the same time!”

If I knew that the university was planning to ask Sandra to participate in the surgical training, I wouldn’t have agreed to Professor Fontaine’s request to participate in this operation.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryHence, it was rather difficult for her to be in such a situation because Robert treated her quite well after all.

Upon hearing that, Lee clicked his tongue before he said, “Alright, alright. If Robert complains to me, I’ll ask him to call you directly then.”

Janet was speechless upon hearing that. Alas.

She heaved a sigh before immediately hanging up the phone.

After that, she walked to the medical school.

The minute she walked past the entrance, her coursemates looked at her with a different look.

She could not tell whether they were envious, jealous or if they hated her.

“Janet, I heard that you are going to be a part of the trainees in the surgery training planned for third year students?”

“Yup. We’ve heard the rumors. Are they true?”

“Are you guys serious? Why haven’t I heard of that?”

A few people looked up at Janet as they spoke in envious tones.

After she placed her notes on the table, she nodded impassively.

Her reaction caused her other coursemates to be incredibly envious of her.

“Oh wow! Professor Fontaine treats you well! If you are really joining the surgery, you would be the first person in Woodsbury University to accomplish such feat!”

“Oh my God! I’m so envious of you! If only Professor Fontaine approves of my techniques!”

“Yeah, but we did not win the International Medicine Competition by being in first place.”

“Even though you’re just there as an assistant, you have already received this practical opportunity as a freshman. When you are in third year, is Professor Fontaine going to appoint you as the lead surgeon?”

“Oh my God! It’s not impossible now that you have said it out loud!”

Obviously, the other coursemates were envious of Janet, but they became less confident after they raised their heads and looked at the wall opposite them where the International Medicine Competition’s trophy was placed.

Meanwhile, Janet merely sat down without any changes in her expression.

Abby opened her notebook on the desk to take a look, but she was surprised to discover that it was completely empty. “Janet, I heard that the surgery training is starting next week, but why is your notebook completely empty?” Our seniors are already quite knowledgeable and experienced. If this continues, the glory will all be theirs.

Janet merely replied nonchalantly, “Ahh… I’m too lazy to take notes.”

At that moment, a girl behind her suddenly heaved a sigh.

Janet turned to see Sharon in low spirits. “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Sharon merely raised her head and sighed again. “Before you arrived, I was planning to borrow your notebook. However, I didn’t know that you are such a pro that you don’t even need to take notes—they are all in your brain.”

Upon hearing that, Janet laughed quietly. “Why? Are you also interested in the surgery training?”

Sharon looked excited when she heard that. “Of course. So many medical students dream of joining the surgery training.” With that, she lowered her head in disappointment. “However, looking at my capabilities, I’m afraid that I don’t even have the right to just be a spectator at the surgery.”

Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 1000

Ever since the International Medicine Competition was done and dusted, Sharon was already questioning herself if she was suited for medicine.

The best example to show the difference between a genius and an average person was the difference between Janet and herself.

Upon hearing that, Janet’s eyes merely narrowed, but she did not utter a word.

At this moment, the phone in her pocket vibrated before the ringtone quickly followed.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel QueryShe took out her phone and had a look—it was Lee. I bet he is calling because he couldn’t come to a conclusion with Robert.

Janet let out a slight ‘tsk’ before she got up and walked outside lazily.

“I’m going out to take a phone call.”

After she went to the corridor, she finally answered the call.

“What’s up?” Janet arched her eyebrows with a teasing smile on her face. “You can’t pacify him?”

Lee was quite annoyed by Robert.

Join Telegram Group For Fast update and Novel Query“Robert called me numerous times in misery, pleading for you to show up. I think you better talk to him yourself.”

He had taken many orders for Janet previously, but this was the first person who was insistent with his request.

When she heard the impatience in Lee’s voice, she laughed and replied in exasperation, “Fine, then. Agree to their request, but I have a condition.”

Upon hearing that, Lee was dumbfounded. She didn’t agree to this before, so why is she agreeing to it now?

However, he was more curious about her request. “Go ahead.”

“Tell him to include Sharon in the surgery. She’s a first year medical student in Woodsbury University.”

“Sharon Nathan? Your coursemate?”

Janet hummed in agreement.

“A-A-Alright,” Lee replied hastily.

This is my first time seeing Janet taking care of others so much.

Meanwhile, on the other side in Yobril, after Melissa signed the contract that was worth one billion, the various news companies were quick to change their stances. The articles that mocked her were immediately taken down and replaced by articles that praised her stellar performance.

The headlines of the news changed from ‘Melissa Rocher—the destroyer of the good reputation upheld by Rocher Family?’ to ‘Huge turn of events—Melissa Rocher signed a contract worth one billion that might pave a new way for the Rocher Family’.

Even the members of the medical team from the Fuller Corporation treated her much better after that.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You really can’t underestimate Melissa at all. She earned the one-billion contract all on her own.”

“Yeah. I heard the competition is quite fierce for this contract. I can’t believe that Melissa was able to get it.”

“Say, if it were Janet from Sandfort City, do you think she’s able to take it?”

“Janet? I don’t think so. After all, she’s just a first year student. How would the employer be relieved to hand a one-billion contract to a young girl?”

“True, that makes sense.”

“Melissa is still quite capable after all!”

The conversations between the internal members of Fuller Corporation’s medical team continued to reach Melissa’s ears.

In an instant, she felt a sense of security, as if she rose to heaven from hell.

She took a deep breath and was about to open the door of the laboratory when a voice suddenly rang in the corridor.

“Miss Rocher.”

Melissa turned to see Sheldon walking toward her.

“What’s up, Mr. Fuller?”

He stopped walking and pursed his lips as he frowned. “I heard from my team that you don’t need any assistance?”

He felt rather incredulous to hear that she did not even need an assistant for the one-billion contract.

Upon hearing that, her eyes flickered as she nodded ambiguously. “Yes, I don’t need anyone for the time being. You know that this is my first time taking such a huge contract. Hence, I want to depend on my capabilities alone. Apart from that, the employer, Mr. Hills, also confirmed that all is good as long as I submit the product in a month. There’s nothing to be worried about.”

Worried that Sheldon would be suspicious, Melissa stated a bunch of excuses at one go.

“Is that so?” His eyes narrowed in doubt. “Fine. If you need anything, just let me know.”

“Alright.”

“By the way, what does Mr. Hills want in the end?”

As Sheldon did not comprehend much about medicine and Melissa attended with the President alone the last time, he did not understand what she was researching on.
