Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 23

Janet nodded and tossed her bag aside while Emily rolled her eyes and taunted, “I must say, you’re really bold!”

Three minutes later, Emily knocked on the door of the dressing room impatiently and asked, “Janet, are you done?”

As she could not hear anything coming from inside, she was just about to walk into the dressing room when the door swung open. She was greeted by a young girl wearing a green embroidered dress, carrying a lute in her arms as she was leaving the room. She had exquisite makeup on her face with two roses drawn beside her eyes, accentuating her radiant and flawless skin. Emily was awestruck by Janet’s beauty.

“Is it my turn soon?” Janet curled her crimson lips slightly upward into a mysterious smile and it was the first time that Emily had seen her wear that expression.

When Gordon approached the girls, he was immediately blown away by Janet’s dazzling beauty, his eyes glued to her. Exasperated to see how infatuated he was with Janet, Emily deliberately questioned, “Janet, I’m surprised you know how to play a lute. Do you really know how it works?”

“I’m curious too. Why did you decide to perform on the lute?” Gordon asked.

Janet flashed them both a helpless smile. “That’s my only choice because I have no idea how to play the other instruments.”

Emily consoled her right away and said, “It’s fine. Gordon and I have just seized the first place for our class with our performance. So, you don’t have to be nervous; you’re free to perform anything you want.”

“Really? The two of you are amazing!” Janet ignored Emily completely and gave Gordon a nudge instead, as if the two were the best of buddies.

Emily wasn’t too bothered by it because she knew Janet would soon become the laughing stock of the whole school from tonight onward. That thought instantly cheered her up. Her performance was the last from Class A as well as the entire event, so she had a crucial role because everyone would be paying their full attention to her.

“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming to join us in celebrating Star High School’s anniversary tonight. We guarantee that all performances tonight have not gone through any rehearsal and everything will be done in a fair and square manner so that we will be able to uncover the student who has the most potential in becoming a star in the future!”

The audience responded with a round of warm applause. The much-anticipated last performance of the night was about to begin.

“Now, let us welcome the last performance of tonight. Miss Janet Jackson, a newcomer from Class A of Twelfth Grade! Let’s put our hands together to welcome her dance performance!”

At the same time, whispers broke out among the audience.

“A newcomer? I can’t believe she has the guts to be the last performer at such a grand event. I guarantee she must be someone who loves to be in the limelight!”

“Janet Jackson? Isn’t she the one who beat up the campus belle, Jennifer Lewis, so badly that she had to skip school for ten days?”

“Not only that, she even cheated in exams and she was so slick that not even the principal or the teachers could catch her red-handed!”

“Damn it, is she backed up by some big shot? Let’s see how she’s going to fare in the final exam!”
