Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 144

“The winner is…” Old Mr. Collins turned to face Emily first before he continued, “Emily…”

Emily nearly jumped in excitement when she heard her name.

“Hold on.” At that juncture, a cold voice disrupted the joyous moment.

Janet strode toward the middle of the stage and stared at Old Mr. Collins with steady composure in her eyes. “Old Mr. Collins, are you really going to announce the winner without looking at my work first?” she asked breezily.

At first, Janet was in fact not too keen on winning the contest and becoming the apprentice of Old Mr. Collins. However, she couldn’t accept it when somebody else won by stealing her idea, and it insulted her.

Old Mr. Collins looked stunned when he saw Janet rising to her feet.

Everyone was dumbfounded for several seconds too before they burst out laughing.

“Isn’t the outcome very obvious by now? Emily is clearly the winner of tonight!”

“That Janet girl is such an attention-seeker. Won’t she feel embarrassed by making a fuss?”

“Didn’t she see how good Emily’s work is? Does she think she can win?”

“Hahaha, I really look forward to seeing her painting which must be as awful as a pile of dung.”

“She really should reflect on her own abilities before making any noise. I don’t why she is looking for trouble despite the fact that her work won’t be better than Emily’s.”

In an instant, everyone was condemning Janet for her shameless attitude.

However, Janet was neither anxious nor angry standing in the middle of the hall. Staring at Emily’s painting indifferently, a trace of amusement was visible in her eyes.

Calmly, she commented, “This koi painting is very beautiful, isn’t it?”

To everyone’s surprise, Janet started off by offering Emily a compliment.

All of them were baffled as no one had a clue what she was trying to do.

Flashing her a faint smile, Emily pretended to sound humble when she responded, “Thanks. Is there anything else you wish to express?”
