Chapter 223
Walter: ‘Janet, what have you been up to lately?’Janet: ‘I’m preparing for the college entrance exam.’ After a while, she sent him another message: ‘How did you get my number?’ She had changed her number a long time ago. Since she had lost contact with Walter for such a long time, she wondered why he decided to approach her again all of a sudden.It was only after several minutes that she received a reply from him: ‘Gordon gave me your number. Did he not tell you?’Janet did not send him a reply. Instead, she walked over to Gordon but she had no chance to even get near him because he was surrounded by a throng of their classmates. It was only when the crowd dispersed after the school bell rang that she finally had a chance to speak to him.“Why does Walter have my number?” she asked, her expression confused.Gordon raised his brows quizzically at her and said, “Didn’t both my agent and Walter’s contact your assistant earlier to have you compose songs for us?” Gordon assumed his part was done by leaving his agent to manage the work. After all, they were all students and it wasn’t convenient for them to discuss their work in the music industry in school, especially because Janet was very low-key. He could still recall vividly how Janet had reprimanded him for talking about their work the first time they saw each other in Star High School.Having heard his explanation, the corners of Janet’s lips twitched in annoyance. She supposed Lee must have forgotten all about it because he had been too busy flirting with girls lately. Shortly thereafter, she messaged Lee and from his replies he sounded like he had completely forgotten about the matter. ‘Janet, I’m really sorry about that. I thought Gordon would’ve told you personally since the two of you are studying in the same school.’Janet was speechless. Lee then replied in a courteous yet guilty tone: ‘Should I contact their agents now to turn down the job offer?’Mulling it over, Janet questioned: ‘How much is the pay?’Lee: ‘100 million.’Janet: ‘Take it and use the money for Venom’s repair.’ She thought of her car, Venom, which had been severely damaged after the race last week. As it was a gift from Lee, she couldn’t just leave it there without repairing it. Lee sent her a smiley emoji together with his message: ‘I’ve got it. The details of the job offer have been sent to your email address.’…Early next morning, Janet arrived at the school to print out some test papers at the Academic Affairs Office. The questions in the test papers were compiled by Janet herself to suit the level of the students in Class F. As the foundation of their knowledge was very weak, there was no point in giving them college entrance exam level questions and forcing them to do it.Passing by Class A, she bumped into some jerks from the class standing in the corridor. Noticing that Janet was coming out from the Academic Affairs Office, Madelaine put on an exaggerated expression of utter astonishment and exclaimed, “Gosh, I thought it was someone else when I saw your back just now. What are you doing? Are you trying to save the scums in Class F?”However, Janet walked past her without even sparing her a glance. Seeing Janet ignoring her, Madelaine threw a look at the girls who were standing nearby; they got her message instantly and blocked Janet’s way.“Tsk, stop looking all high and mighty because all of us know what sort of person you really are!” the girls scoffed as they glared at Janet. As fans of the author Rose, they were still holding a grudge against Janet for bluffing them the last time.“Get out of my way,” Janet said in a cold voice, holding a stack of approximately thirty copies of test papers. Her gaze was threatening and cold, which reminded the girls of Class A of how she used to beat Jennifer Lewis up back then. Intimidated, the girls exchanged a glance among themselves before moving out of Janet’s way. After all, Janet was on better terms with the students in Class F now. If things escalated into something physical, they knew they were no match for the barbarians in Class F.Staring at her back which gave out a presumptuous air, some of them flipped her the bird and cursed, “I don’t know why she’s so smug. Does she think she’s so much better than everybody else?”“What’s the matter?” At that moment, Emily happened to walk over, her face expressionless.As soon as Madelaine saw her, she quickly walked over with a simpering smile. “Do you know where Janet just went?”“Where?” With excitement palpable in her eyes, Madelaine answered, “She just went to the Academic Affairs Office to print out a whole stack of test papers.”
