Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 126
Old Mr. Collins glanced at Janet and Emily indifferently before he smiled and said to Jade, “Jade, I heard that you received a special gift today.”
Hearing this, Jade smiled and replied, “Yes, I did. Look, this is a gift that my granddaughter gave me. As a teacher, what do you think?”
Old Mr. Collins didn’t plan to hide his intentions so with a smile, he said, “I’m not going to lie. The only reason I came over today was to look at this painting.”
“Really? How are you so well-informed?” Jade asked jokingly.
As Jade pulled out the painting Janet gave her, she warned, “Old Mr. Collins, you have to be careful. This is a gift from my granddaughter so you must not damage it!”
With a curious expression, Old Mr. Collins wondered, What kind of a painting would make her feel so nervous?
When the guests heard Jade praise and protect her granddaughter, all of them mocked her. “Grandma Jade, don’t show him Janet’s painting! It’s embarrassing!” “He’s right. Old Mr. Collins doesn’t really care about it. Why are you treating it like it’s treasure?” “What a joke. Old Mr. Collins’s painting skills are much better than Janet’s.” “If I were him, I wouldn’t even bother looking at it. After all, it’s only a copy so how great can it be?”
Shirley joined them and said, “Mom! Don’t take it out and disgrace the Jackson family! If I were you, I would’ve directly thrown that painting into the trash can.”
