Chapter 341
“That’s interesting.” Mason crossed his legs and squinted his dark eyes at Janet, who was standing right in front of him. “Do you also have the habit of deleting your browsing history every time you finish using the computer?” As he spoke, he peered at the notebook on his office desk.“Uh-huh. What’s wrong with that?” Janet smiled as she responded calmly, leaving others in confusion.Then, she sat down on the couch and played with her fingernails, occasionally turning to the clock.“I have a class later,” she said in Mason’s direction as if she was reporting to her lover.Upon hearing that, Mason nodded, walked toward her, and pinched her fair palm. “But first, let’s go to the principal’s office.”Not rejecting it outright, Janet began to follow him, and their hands touched each other inadvertently.Seeing that Janet was behind him, Mason decided to knock on the door of the principal’s office.Upon hearing the knock, the principal quickly opened the door and welcomed the two with a warm smile.“Mason, Janet, you’re both here.”Looking rather indifferent, Mason brought Janet to sit down on a genuine leather couch.At this point, Mason stroked his chin with one hand and held a cigarette in between his lean and clean fingers of his other hand before gently blowing out smoke. He squinted as he looked at the well-mannered Janet underneath the layer of smoke as she sat there. Then, he turned to the principal. “You are lucky that this problem was taken care of before you got involved.”The principal chuckled and swallowed as he looked at Mason who was smoking and sitting on the couch. “Young Master Mason, as I’ve told you, the students in this school love and treasure each other. They won’t let Miss Jackson suffer for no reason.”Upon hearing that, Janet snorted and looked up. She looked callous and cold. “How long have you been a principal?”“T-Twelve years.” The principal found the words and uttered them while stammering.He then lowered his voice as he continued, “Miss Jackson, w-what are you getting at?”Isn’t this incident over?Is Young Master Mason still going to hold me accountable for it? At this point, Janet responded blandly, “Nothing. I was just wondering if you ever felt ashamed of yourself for being the school principal.”To Janet, she could completely ignore whatever happened so long as she and the ones around her were not affected. Previously, this principal, with his twelve years of experience, had suggested that the class with the worst academic results should clean all the toilet bowls in the school.Such an act in no way qualified him to be an educator and a school principal.The principal began to quiver as he saw the callous look on Janet’s face. To ask for help, he turned to Mason. “Y-Young Master Mason!”Mason glanced at him and blew a mouthful of white smoke. “Someone will be here to replace you tomorrow. You don’t have to come in anymore until the college entrance exams are over.”At this point, the principal froze.Is he saying that Janet is under his protection?The principal was burning with embarrassment and he could not even speak clearly. “Young Master Mason, this isn’t a great idea, is it? The seniors are about to take the college entrance exams. I have to be around!”Mason closed his mouth; he did not say another word until a few seconds later when his chilly voice sounded out again. “I’ve already contacted the education bureau.”After he finished, Mason and Janet left together.“It surprises me how you can get the principal kicked out after just a few days into your job as the dean. People might think that you two didn’t get along.”Mason let out a dull smile. “What’s wrong? You aren’t happy about it?”“Nothing,” Janet responded rather unemotionally. “I’m happy about it.”She did not even have to do a thing, and he just took everything into his own hands.Who else on this earth had the power to directly contact the people in the education bureau?At this moment, Mason looked down and saw the smile on her face; he proceeded to quickly and gently kiss her on her cheek. “Take this as interest.”“You…” Janet touched her cheek, feeling the warmth left by Mason on her fingertips. She then took a deep breath and looked rather indifferent. “I won’t visit you in your office anymore.”
