Janet: ‘I know!’
Lee: ‘What? How did you find out so quickly?’
Janet twitched her brows. Her small hands leisurely tapped against the keyboard as she typed: ‘I’m living at the Lowry Residence!’
Then, Lee scratched his head, feeling confused. ‘You’re already living together? Why didn’t you ask him yourself?’
Janet is so puzzling. It’s ten billion! All for a training base… Now that they’re living together, Mason would give her anything she asked for. I’m sure that even if she asked for not one, but ten training bases, he would still do it for her.
Janet didn’t reply.
Lee: ‘But, if the weapons and guns from Markovia are to be brought in… I’m afraid there will be other forces from Sandfort City getting in our way.’
Janet: ‘Are you talking about Black Rain?’
Lee calmly answered with a single word, ‘Yeah.’
The last batch of books had been intercepted. Yet, this time around, it was going to involve dangerous goods. Who knows what will happen? With the Black Rain hanging around, building this training base might not go so smoothly.
Janet was expressionless. After a moment, she smirked. ‘If they want to play, I’ll play with them.’
I’ll get back at them for everything! I wonder just what is so amazing about the organization called Black Rain. Still, successfully signing the contract for a training base with Mason is more important right now.
At the start of June, it was time for the college entrance exams.
At the Jackson residence, Megan was nagging at Emily as she helped her tidy her clothes. “Emily, carefully review the questions during your exams. Don’t get nervous, okay?”
Emily nodded. “Mommy, don’t worry. I’ll definitely score well!”
She was very confident in her own abilities. Whenever she thought of the fact that Hilbert was going to come and escort her to Markovia after her college entrance exams, she became even more elated. I’ve been studying endlessly recently—I’m sure it’ll be a breeze!
“Okay. I believe in you,” Megan said. She watched Emily’s retreating back; her heart was filled with hope and expectations.
……..
Janet sat cross-legged, playing on her phone. She refused to let him drive her into the school. Thus, she refused expressionlessly, “No, thanks. It’s all students inside.”
He already sent me to the school gates. Even so, he still wants to drive the car inside. Is he crazy? If everybody saw me getting out of a Maybach, strange rumors about me having a sugar daddy might start floating around.
“What a bad girl you are!” The man pinched her. “Isn’t it time for you to make an honest man of me?”
We’ve been together for nearly half a month now. But, this young lady is still not mentally prepared to announce our relationship publically. How can I stand it?
“What?” She chuckled, raising her brows. “Aren’t you supposed to be the one making an honest woman of me, Mr. Lowry?”
How can a man act so coy? How can he say such words with a straight face? I’ve never seen anything like this before!
Upon hearing those words, the man lifted his enchanting face and smiled. Then, he said in a deep, hoarse, and somewhat seductive voice, “I’ll give you anything you want!”
He had taken into account the fact that Janet had just come of age. Therefore, it wasn’t appropriate to announce their relationship right now. It would be bad for her reputation if they did that. He might even be labeled as a pedophile. Still, if that’s what she wants, I’ll have to select a good opportunity to let everybody in the Lowry Family know who my future wife is going to be.
“I don’t want it!” The corners of her mouth twitched. I nearly fell for his tricks! Looking into his deep, enchanting eyes, she lost her strength to fight and nearly fell into his trap.
Mason studied the adorable woman in front of him. Subsequently, he wanted to place her in his lap and kiss her. Thus, his arm moved slightly. Just as he was about to grab her slim waist, her phone started ringing.
She stopped him. “I-I need to take this call. Hello?” Her voice was calm and emotionless.
“Janet, good luck with your exams! Don’t forget to check through your answers when you’re done! This is going to affect the rest of your life!” Megan’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
Janet was slightly taken aback. “Okay!”
Afterward, Megan said a few more things before hanging up.
