Genius Wife Is Naughty Again novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281

Emily clenched her fist tightly while she had a gloomy expression on her face.“Janet, why are you dressed up like this?” Megan, who had just returned from the washroom, was astonished.Before Janet could reply, Grandma Jade chimed in. “Megan, doesn’t she look gorgeous? This outfit is personally chosen by me for her.”A stunned Megan nodded. “It’s quite beautiful.”Emily fiercely glared at Janet. She used to regard that Janet was not her match, but she never expected that the latter was adored dearly by their grandmother.While looking at the few people chatting and laughing, she felt like an outsider, so she intentionally coughed to attract both Brian and Megan’s attention. “Daddy, Mommy, aren’t we going to start the banquet?”Only then did they realize that they should now start the banquet. He took the mic given to him by a waiter and announced, “I would like to thank everyone here for taking the time to attend the combined birthday banquet of the Jackson Family’s elder daughter, Janet, and the celebration banquet of our younger daughter, Emily.”Brian said a bunch of polite words.One of the guests asked, “The banquet today is also to celebrate Emily’s impending succession of the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril, right?”Megan nodded in agreement. “That’s right. After the college entrance exam, my daughter, Emily, will depart for Yobril.”“That’s amazing! Both daughters of the Jackson Family have promising futures.”“It’s not easy for one to enter the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril. Mrs. Jackson, please take care of us in the future.”“You are flattering us.” Megan smiled with her pursed lips, enjoying the envious gaze of the crowd.Shirley, who was at one corner, pinched Chloe’s arm in frustration. “Look at Emily, she’s going to become the successor of the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril. How about you? You’re such a failure!”Chloe pouted while trying to avoid her mother’s pinches. “She has the talent. What can I do about it?”“Sigh.” Shirley resignedly shook her head and advised, “You better be close to Emily after this. If she really becomes the successor of the Royal Academy of Music in Yobril, we will have a better chance of getting their help in the future.” Chloe nodded. “I understand.”“By the way, don’t get too close to Janet as she’s a bad influence.” Shirley didn’t forget to add that before leaving. With that, she walked to the center of the hall with a gift box in her hands.Meanwhile, in one of the suites at a 5-star hotel, Mason was trying on different shirts—one after another—but he was still dissatisfied. “How’s this?”Henry put down the notebook in his hand before raising his eyes to glance at him. “Everything looks great on you since you are handsome, Young Master Mason.”Without replying, Mason looked in the mirror again.Henry was speechless. This is merely Janet’s birthday banquet, so why is he so nervous? He has been trying different outfits and staring at his reflection in the mirror for half a day. When did he become such a narcissistic person?He took the notebook again and asked, “Young Master Mason, why didn’t you attend the banquet organized by the Jackson Family for her instead of organizing another one in this hotel?”The man walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window. There was a sense of bottomlessness in his eyes, which resembled a deep well, while his low, husky voice was heard. “It carries a different meaning.”It was her first birthday after meeting him and they would definitely celebrate more birthdays in the future and perhaps throughout their entire lives. Therefore, it shouldn’t be held perfunctorily.Henry raised his brow with a puzzled look on his face.Looking at the night view outside the window, Mason suddenly turned and asked, “Sean, how is the preparation on the matter that I had asked you to do?”Upon hearing that, Sean was startled, but he respectfully replied, “It’s going well.”Confused by their question and answer, Henry asked with a frown, “What are you guys talking about? Is it a surprise for Janet?” The room fell into a fleeting silence after his question.After a while, Mason’s deep voice was heard. “You will know in a while.”“Sigh!” Henry let out a breath. If Janet is my woman, I’d have kidnapped her from the banquet instead of waiting anxiously here until it ends. “Sigh, I really can’t comprehend this.” His puzzlement was again heard from the black leather couch.
