Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 39

The smile on Emily’s face grew wider as her classmates showered her with praises. Everything they said was true; she was the one living the successful life while Janet had already lost at the starting line. Envied looks were shared as Emily walked toward Gordon and handed him an invitation card.

“Young Master Yaleman, I would like to invite you to a party at the Jacksons to celebrate my success in qualifying for the Summer Painting Competition’s grand finals,” Emily said while stealing glances at Janet.

To her dismay, Janet was so occupied playing her game that she couldn’t be bothered to look up. Emily chuckled coldly and thought to herself, She must be filled with jealousy right now and yet she still pretends like she doesn’t care… Poor thing.

And so, she waited for a few beats. However, not only was Janet still indifferent, even Gordon just mumbled a ‘thank you’ when he accepted the card. Emily pursed her lips and continued, “This time, my parents will also be attending the party and they really hope that you could come too.”

In contrast with Emily’s look of anticipation, Gordon only nodded and replied, “I still have some performances on the weekends so I’m not sure if I would be able to make it.”

Emily stiffened. “Oh, is that so?” She did not expect Gordon to reject her invitation so bluntly. Earlier, she was being pompous and tried to show off by saying she would be able to invite Gordon to the party; now everyone was looking at her mockingly.

Gordon bowed down his head and continued reading his book. As such, Emily stood there under everyone’s stares awkwardly before going back to her seat, feeling disappointed. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. In the end, she decided to put the blame all on Janet and glared at her accusingly.

Janet, on the other hand, seemed immune to the resentment that Emily was emitting. This was because Sarah, who had been off the grid for almost 6 months, had finally made contact with her. She was also part of Janet’s organization. The purpose of Sarah’s trip to Sandfort City this time was to handle some personal matters and to catch up with Janet.

Sarah: ‘I’ve already confirmed that I’m coming to Sandfort City on Saturday. Should we meet up?’

‘Sure, where are you staying? Do you need me to book a room for you?’ Janet replied immediately.

“You better shut up if you don’t want to end up in the hospital!”

The air pressure around Mason seemed to drop as he stared at the message. That little vixen, Janet Jackson, would be his ultimate weakness… He tried so hard to keep up his gentleman image around her but alas, he could never change his stubbornness.

Mason was already feeling irritable with the cold shoulder treatment from Janet. After all, he didn’t seem to get the response he yearned for even after his previous attempt of trying to seduce her without wearing any clothes while cooking. In that fleeting moment, it cost Mason everything to stop himself from rushing over to Star High School to capture Janet and lock her up in his house, where he could have her only to himself.

When Henry realized that Mason was losing his head, he quickly suggested, “Young Master Mason, you can’t just sit here and wait all day; you have to be the one to make the first move.”

“You don’t think I know that?” Mason answered sarcastically.
