Genius Wife Is Naughty Again novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

At the Jackson residence, Brian settled Jade in the room on the second floor. At first, Brian wanted to give Jade the master bedroom but she insisted on staying in the room opposite of Janet and said that she could use the opportunity to climb the stairs to exercise. After putting down her luggage, Jade rushed downstairs and sat next to Janet. “Janet, I have something to tell you!”Janet looked up at Jade with a blank expression and realized that Jade’s eyes were red. Jade had heard about Janet’s life story from Brian just now and couldn’t help but sympathize with her, especially when she heard that she had been farming under the hot sun when Ms. Cook went to the countryside to get her. The mere thought of it made Jade feel distressed. I’m sure Janet must’ve suffered a lot during her years in the countryside. Even though she doesn’t know how to please people like Emily does, it is all caused by the environment she grew up in so I can’t blame her. The only person I should blame is us adults for taking Emily by mistake.Emily sat next to Megan and complained to her about Janet. “Mom, how can Janet say those things at the party today? My reputation is completely ruined. Fortunately, Old Mr. Collins decided to let it go. It would be nice if Janet agrees to join the painting competition. That way, I won’t be misunderstood as a girl who doesn’t know how to paint.” Hearing this, Janet immediately rolled her eyes. You were brave enough to steal my painting, so why are you afraid of being misunderstood?Feeling a little helpless, Megan said, “Even though Janet shouldn’t have criticized you in public, you were the one who made a mistake. From now on, no one is allowed to talk about this, okay? Whether or not Janet wants to join Old Mr. Collins’s painting competition is all up to her. We have no right to force her to agree to it.” “I understand, mother,” Emily muttered in reply as she leaned into Megan, looking really intimate with each other. Looking at Janet’s lonely figure, Jade gestured her over. “Janet, come over here.” Janet didn’t dislike her grandmother. Perhaps it was because she naturally liked old people, just like how she liked Old Madam Lowry. When Janet came back from her thoughts, Jade had already taken her hand and sat down. Then, the kind-looking old woman in front of her lovingly said, “Janet, I really like the painting you gave me. I’ve also prepared a present for you. Take it and see if you like it.”When Jade was young, she started Jackson Enterprise with her husband and after she retired, she put it under Brian’s management. Because of this, Jade was pretty wealthy and the money she spent on travelling for the past few years were all her own money. She never took any money from Brian at all. Jade carefully opened the exclusively-packed red velvet box and revealed a jade bracelet that was lying inside. Some parts of the jade were clear while some parts were murky. In the eyes of outsiders, this kind of thing belonged in the trash can. Seeing this, Emily hurriedly stepped forward to join them. “Grandma Jade, this bracelet is stunning! Is it for Janet?”Jade nodded and replied, “Yes, Emily. I also have a present for you.” Emily was surprised to hear this. “Really?” Later, Jade pulled out an exclusively-wrapped black velvet box from the bag. There was a piece of jade inside but it was a necklace pendant. It looked crystal clear and was completely different from Janet’s cheap bracelet. When Emily saw this, she was overjoyed and her lips curled upward slightly. As expected, grandma loves me the most! Although Janet is the bloodline of the Jackson family, it doesn’t matter because I’m grandma’s favorite. With that, Janet and Emily simultaneously took their presents from Jade. At first, Janet only accepted it out of politeness. Unexpectedly, the moment she touched the jade, she felt a strange, unparalleled comfort. It… It feels like the piece of crystal jade that I gave Old Madam Lowry. Is it just a delusion? Janet touched it with her other hand, feeling a warm and comfortable feeling in her palm and fingertips. It really is made out of crystal jade… But why is this crystal jade turbid? Janet thought about it for a while. Maybe it’s a different kind of jade. After all, there are many different kinds of jadeite. Emily noticed Janet’s wooden expression and couldn’t help but chuckle. “Janet, don’t you like the bracelet that grandma gave you?”
