It was a good thing they did not mess with Janet. Otherwise, they would not have seen the light of day.
……..
At the nurse’s office in Star High School, Abby’s red and chubby face was filled with worry. “Will Janet get detained? I’m so worried about her. If I had known she would get arrested, I would’ve rather been beaten to death. It’s all my fault.”
A frown appeared on Gordon’s forehead. He held her hand gently and comforted, “It’ll be fine. Don’t worry.”
She looked at him with her big round eyes and pulled her hand back lightly. “Mm.”
Suddenly, his phone started to ring. He took one look at it and answered it right away.
When the call ended, the corners of his lips lifted slightly and his narrow eyes brightened up. “My friend just informed me that she is out of the police station now.”
“Really?” Abby sat up in excitement, completely forgetting about the injury on her bottom. That’s so good to hear!” She hugged his waist and buried her face in his embrace. “Thank you.”
She looked as cute as a kitten. Gordon caressed her head and asked, “Can you go back feeling relieved now?”
“Yes.” She peeled her head away from his chest. Her bright eyes radiated with brilliance.
He caressed her head once more and said affectionately, “Silly girl.”
At that moment, she was rendered speechless.
…….
Several people arrived at the Leaping Dragon Hotel in cars.
When the manager at the front desk spotted Mason, he thought it was a spot check and quickly greeted him respectfully, “Boss, you’re here.”
Mason nodded at him. “Tidy up the VIP room. I’ve brought some friends over to dine here.”
The manager looked across and saw a lady who looked familiar along with a few other unfamiliar men.
“Yes, Boss. Please come this way.”
The others followed Mason inside.
When they arrived at the private room, the manager instinctively brought the menu to Janet. “Miss, please tell me your order.”
The manager knew who she was because Mason had brought her there often. Throughout several encounters, he naturally came to know her status.
Janet pushed the menu toward Walter and said with indifference, “You should choose.”
Walter smiled at her then spoke to the manager with respect, “Give us one of everything on the menu.”
Even though she heard him, she continued to look at her phone without saying anything.
Knowing Black Python, Red Python, and White Python, she knew that they could finish a whole cow if it was given to them. Nothing would have gone to waste.
Mason was speechless.
Ever since they came in here, Janet did not spare him a glance and he was not the least bit happy about it.
He wanted it to just be the two of them, but somehow another man was latching onto them now.
He was starting to think that perhaps he had to proclaim his territory in front of this man.
Meanwhile, the manager made haste and each dish was served promptly.
In less than twenty minutes, every dish on the menu was on the table.
“Enjoy your meal, Young Master Mason.” The manager gave a slight bow and exited the room.
Janet put down her phone then picked up some food to stuff in her mouth. “How did you know I was at the police station?”
She was clearly asking Walter that question.
“Gordon called and asked me to look after you.” He did not conceal anything.
She nodded along.
“What did that girl with the swollen face do to you?” He still found the scene he witnessed at the police station earlier amusing.
Taking a sip of her drink, she stated bluntly, “She messed with Gordon’s girl. I just got back at her on his behalf.”
Walter was filled with disbelief.
Gordon’s girl? That kid found someone he likes already? He hid it pretty well.
Red Python, Black Python, and White Python felt admiration for her when they heard what she said.
She was loyal, beautiful, and selfless. No wonder Mason was so captivated by her.
Meanwhile, Mason was feeling gloomy as he watched the two of them chatting away happily.
