Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 132
Such a tacky way of pleasing her simply didn’t work for her.
At that juncture, those boys walked over to Emily and offered the drinks to her instead.
Emily first gave them a once-over before brushing her hair back. “I’m not that cheap,” she rejected their gestures with displeasure.
There was no way she would take something which had been rejected by Janet.
The boys first exchanged a glance before they turned back to face Emily. “Are you sure you don’t want the drinks?” they asked.
Madelained shooed them away with a disgusted tone, “Oh, please just leave us alone. Why are you guys offering us something Janet didn’t want?”
“It’s because the two of you are only worth rejected goods!” one of the boys snapped back resentfully.
Who did Emily think she was and what was so special about her?
Madelaine was left so exasperated that she was speechless.
Emily waved her hand dismissively. “Forget about them because I need to get ready for my 100 meters sprint now.”
Although it was very tiring to run under such torrid weather, she counted herself lucky because she was only involved in one sports event.
She might not be as excellent in sports as her academic achievements but she was still confident that she could win at least a bronze medal in the race.
The sports day officially began following an announcement by Mr. Wilson, the sports teacher.
As the sports events Janet was involved in were arranged subsequent to most other events, she decided to watch the performance of her classmates under the shade of a tree.
Indeed, all of them turned out to be weak and were way more inferior to the students from other classes in terms of their stamina.
After watching for a while, she expected that Emily would be the second one who would be able to get a medal for Class A after Gordon who had clinched the gold medal in the men’s 100 meters sprint.
Amidst the rapturous cheers, Emily successfully finished third in her race.
Mr. Wilson advised her good-naturedly, “Janet, it’s time you do some warm-up because the high jump event is coming up. It’s completely okay if you aren’t confident with the event because none of the girls from Class A have ever won any medals for high jump before.”
Abby chimed in, “Janet, if you really think you can’t make it, you can just duck under the pole because that’s what I did last year!”
“That’s right. You may just do that and you don’t have to force yourself if you really can’t do it.”
Upset to see everyone swarming around Janet, Madelaine seethed, “What do they see in that country yokel that makes her so special? I wish she would break her legs in the high jump event later.”
Madelaine’s comment caused Emily to be even more pissed off and her blood was boiling. She was speechless to see her fellow classmates all flocking to Janet right after they celebrated very briefly for the bronze medal she just won.
Janet nodded at everyone and declared, “Thanks everyone for your concern, and I promise I will try my best later! Although I’ve never tried high jumping before, I think I should be able to nail it…”
“Janet, I trust you.” Abby’s eyes on her crimson face shone with determination.
“Just go ahead and shine.” Gordon patted Janet’s shoulder.
When Janet reached the track, she noticed that the pole was placed at a height which almost reached her ears. If she was able to jump over that pole, she reckoned all her classmates would be awestruck and freak out.
