Chapter 172
Suddenly, she received a message from Abby: ‘Janet, how much did you score in the exam?’Janet: ‘200 points!’Abby: ‘What? 200 points! How could this be?!’Janet: ‘It was pure coincidence that I did well in the previous exam.’‘Oh no. What should I do? We can’t be in the same class anymore!’ Abby started to worry for her.Janet laughed softly then replied, ‘Why don’t you take a look at your own test results now?’Abby did not dare to look at her grades because she was afraid that her grades were too poor. If it were, she would be assigned to another class and could not be in the same class as Janet.Then, Abby glanced at her grades. Her eyes widened and she texted, ‘Janet, I got 250 points in the exam!!!’She looked at her exam transcript, tears filling her eyes. This was the first time that she was glad she messed up in the exam.The summer vacation passed quickly.The day before school started, Janet went house shopping in Royal Garden as she was planning to buy a house for the four boys to live in. They would be coming from Markovia tomorrow.She wore her school uniform and had light makeup on, so she looked like a spirited student.The agent from the real estate company was initially introducing houses to clients joyfully, but the moment Janet pushed the door open, the faces of everyone darkened.Everyone looked Janet up and down one after another, then started whispering among themselves.“Hello!” Janet greeted the real estate agents, hoping that one of them would introduce houses to her.However, the people present only replied indifferently, “Hello.” Then, they stopped talking to her.Janet was not upset or angry. Instead, she continued to ask, “May I ask if there is any house that can accommodate four people? We need to move in tomorrow with our luggages.”As soon as Janet said that, the real estate agents present all whispered among each other.“Look, we have a customer, don’t we?”“I won’t accept such customers.”“She looks like a student. She probably can’t even afford a house. Go away!”“What a joke. She wants a four-person house? Can she even afford it?”“That’s true. She even said that she wants to move in tomorrow.” Janet tilted her head to the side and was about to speak.Suddenly, a female staff member came over.Janet looked at the name tag on her chest—Manager Harris.Seeing that Janet did not intend to leave, Manager Harris said in frustration, “Are you here to look for houses?”“Yes!”Manager Harris gave the young woman in front of her a once-over and suddenly sneered, “A big house for four people?”“Yes!” Janet said indifferently, sounding slightly impatient.Manager Harris usually had a very good attitude toward customers. She especially liked to butter up the customers that looked rich and was a simp. However, she was very impatient toward the girl in student attire in front of her. “Do you know how much money it costs?”Janet frowned slightly. She parted her red lips and asked, “What do you mean?”Manager Harris scoffed, “Can you even afford it?”Right after Manager Harris said that, everyone present couldn’t help but roast her as well.“Look at this woman. She’s such a poser!”“She obviously doesn’t have the money to buy a house, and yet she’s pretending as if she does.”“That’s right. I have tended to such customers before. They don’t buy any houses in the end. What a waste of my time!”“I’ve also learnt the hard way that I shouldn’t serve customers like this. They can’t afford it anyway.”Hearing this, there was a chill in Janet’s eyes. Slightly displeased, she said, “Bring me to see the houses.”Hearing what she said, everyone laughed.They were in a deadlock for a few minutes before the manager impatiently asked the interns to tend to her.When the intern, Sally Gibson, was suddenly called to do so, she was upset. She looked at Janet in frustration and said, “Follow me.”She then brought Janet to look at several houses. However, Janet kept shaking her head to express her dissatisfaction.Seeing this, Sally was so angry that she snorted, “You’ve already looked through so many houses. Are you not satisfied with even one of them?”She knew in her heart that the young woman in front of her couldn’t afford it. She thought that the young woman was just pretending to shop for houses and fooling her. Unexpectedly, Janet said, “Is there a bigger house? They’re too small.”
