Chapter 101
“You…” Janet glanced at him while pointing at his nose. “Have a nosebleed.”Mason touched his nose when he heard that and, true enough, it was damp. She facepalmed and commented helplessly, “I’ll help you to stop the bleeding.” She supported him to take a seat while bending down to stop his nosebleed.From his angle, he had a great view of her; the longer he stared at her, the warmer he felt. She noticed that as well and urged him, “You better take a cold shower now.” Then, she placed the ointment on the table. “Take it along with you before you leave. Apply this once a day, and bear in mind to avoid spicy foods.”Right after her advice, his phone started to ring. She was already reading a book while he answered the call next to her. “Yeah, I’m not going to the company tomorrow. I’m planning to head to the stone-betting market with Henry because I heard from Old Man Wells that there are fresh stocks.”Upon hearing Mason’s claims, Janet paused midway while she was flipping through the pages of her book. She had been too busy lately, so she had forgotten to purchase a crystal jade for herself. She could still vividly recall the feeling of the gemstone that she bought for Old Madam Lowry.After Mason hung up on the call, she asked him softly, “Are you going to the stone-betting market?”He nodded in response. “Are you interested in stone-betting too?”She gave it a thought before answering, “Do you recall that piece of crystal jade that I purchased for Old Madam Lowry? It looks good and I feel like I have some sort of natural instincts for these stones.” I can’t possibly tell him that I’ve been blacklisted by all the stone-betting markets during the time when I was in Markovia, can I?Upon hearing that, Mason’s lips curled into a loving smile. “Sure, I’ll pick you up after school tomorrow.” This is just right. I’ve been wanting to spend more time with the young lady.The next day, Janet arrived at school. Due to the incident involving the Reddit post, everybody now treated her much better. Therefore, she felt more relaxed and happier than before. Just when she was on the way to the washroom, she suddenly heard Madelaine’s frustrated voice. “I noticed that you’ve been following Janet every day. Are you her shadow?”Abby retorted angrily, “I like Janet. Is that any of your business? You better be a good dog and return to Emily.” Janet immediately entered the washroom and poked her head in to observe the situation. She saw Abby confronting a few female hooligans from Class F; they were not interested in studies and were usually involved in fights instead. Well, since Abby is voicing aloud that she is supporting me, there is no reason for me to hide or shy away.Madelaine had her arms folded in front of her chest while she snorted in disdain. “How dare you speak of Emily! Isn’t it Janet’s fault that everybody is finding fault with Emily? You shouldn’t be under the impression that Emily can’t defeat Janet. She just doesn’t want to do anything, which is why I can’t just sit back without retaliating. Hence, I’m here to teach Janet’s shadow a lesson.”Abby usually maintained an adorable and soft personality, but she now seemed courageous and vicious. “You are spouting nonsense! Emily is receiving her karma. Nobody asked her to accuse Janet!”Madelaine snorted contemptuously. “You seem to be shameless, Abby. Why didn’t I notice that previously? You look like a guard dog protecting its master at the mention of Janet.”Abby’s face instantly flushed. Just outside the washroom, Janet’s eyes narrowed slightly as they gleamed intimidatingly. She had her hands in her pockets when she barged into the washroom. She took a step forward to yank Madelaine’s hair. “Tell me—who is the dog? Who is the master? Who is the shadow?”Madelaine and the hooligans from Class F were all stumped at Janet’s sudden appearance. None of them were expecting this violent woman, Janet, to show up. She’s frightening when she starts to beat people up!“You… You better release me.” However, no matter how hard Madelaine tried to do so, she just couldn’t free herself from Janet’s grip.Upon witnessing that, the female hooligans from Class F were about to move forward to hit Janet. However, Janet increased her strength, causing Madelaine to scream in pain. Janet’s red lips parted slowly and her tone sent chills down their spine. “Whoever takes another step forward will end up like her.”Upon hearing that, the hooligans took a few steps back. They heard of her fighting capabilities before, so they knew that it wouldn’t be beneficial to offend her. She had beaten Jennifer so badly that the latter dropped out of school. Madelaine was stunned into silence. Shouldn’t these hooligans be well-equipped at beating people up? Why are they scared witless when they’re facing Janet?
