Genius Wife Is Naughty Again novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138

Taking a sharp intake of breath, Janet suddenly felt a pressing urge to land a punch on Mason’s face.“Ahem…” The sound of the doctor clearing her throat came from some distance away. “Girl, do you feel better now?”“Yes. I’m going back to class now.” After saying goodbye to the doctor, Janet then made her way to the building where the classrooms were located.“Remember to tell your teacher if you feel unwell again,” the doctor urged.“I will.” Janet’s figure moved further and further away.Standing rooted to the spot, Mason had a deep crease on his forehead because he couldn’t figure out why it was so hard to melt her heart.The doctor stared at him and offered him a piece of advice with a smile, “Everything will be fine if you pay more attention to your girlfriend. As long as you’re willing to make the effort, I believe you will be able to get her back.”Mason raised his brow and answered in a contemplative tone, “Yes, I will do that.”As soon as Janet returned to the classroom, her presence drew everyone’s attention immediately.“Janet, do you feel better now?”“Janet, are you alright?”Janet nodded in response to their questions before returning to her seat.Emily and Madelaine were just talking about Janet. At the sight of her, Madelaine immediately snorted, “I wonder why someone insisted on taking part in three sports events although there was no way she could cope with them. In the end, she was exhausted after going through just one sports event and ended up fainting in Gordon’s arms. What a scheming b*tch!”Emily went along with what she said by responding in a feign annoyed tone, “Madelaine, you shouldn’t think of Janet that way. Although she did register for the events herself, you can’t be so sure that it was just a part of her plan to make Gordon sympathize with her, can you?”Abby glared at Madelaine and seethed, “Can you predict the exact day you will be having your next period? There’s no point in criticizing her. Didn’t you register to take part in the competition too? Did you win any medal for our class?”Madelaine exchanged a glance with Emily before she asked, “Is she really having her period?”A babble of voices broke out among the girls in the class as soon as they heard that.“Oh, seems like her energy only ran out so soon because she’s having her period.”“No wonder. She can easily beat three people at one go in other times.”“I see. Still, I’m glad that we got at least one gold medal because of her.” “Exactly. Otherwise, our class will become the laughing stock of the entire school again.”The rest of the students started steering the conversation away from Janet and toward Madelaine as they started taunting, “Madelaine, didn’t you take part in the long jump event as Janet’s substitute? Are your knees all red and swollen now?”It was unbeknownst to Janet that after she was brought to the school clinic, Mr. Wilson asked Madelaine to take part in the long jump event as her substitute. Yet, she ended up suffering a hilarious fall in the pool of sand and her misfortune had become a great joke for everyone in the school.Having listened to them describing what happened to Madelaine during the long jump event, Janet smirked and stared at Madelaine disdainfully. “I must say you are a much better athlete than me because I don’t even know how to pull off such a bad fall in the sand.”Her comment sent everyone into fits of laughter.As exasperated as she was with their jeering, Madelaine could only suppress her rage because she dared not refute what they said.Emily then shot Madelaine a supercilious glance, thinking it embarrassing that she didn’t even manage to get a medal from the event.Yet, her mind was preoccupied with the painting competition tomorrow because many big shots of Sandfort City would be there. If she won, it would be a great chance for her to befriend those big shots and Old Mr. Collins would also accept her as his apprentice regardless of what happened before.That was a chance that many girls out there were dying to have.Soon, Sunday arrived.Emily started dolling herself up in her room early in the morning, making sure she would be the prettiest among the three participants in the painting competition later.Both Megan and Jade were very nervous. As someone from their family would be Old Mr. Collins’ apprentice today regardless of the outcome of the contest, both of them were looking forward to the prospect no matter which one of the three emerged as the winner.Deep down inside, Megan wanted Emily to win because she was the one who brought her up. She had arranged music and art lessons for her hoping that she would one day become an outstanding talent in the future.If Janet ended up winning, she could accept it too because after all, she was her real daughter.As for Jade, from all perspectives, she hoped Janet would win because she was her favorite granddaughter. She was very impressed with how marvelous Janet’s painting was and she believed she was good enough to win the contest. More than ten luxury cars were parked outside Leaping Dragon Hotel before the painting competition started.
