After all, there was no way S would give up his location so easily.

After school, Janet stopped by the herbs market to buy the ingredients needed to make soup for Old Madam Lowry. However, it was only when she reached Sandfort Private Hospital did she find out that the elderly lady had returned home. She had no choice but to make her way to Lowry Residence. After giving the elderly lady another acupuncture treatment, Janet noticed that her condition had improved tremendously from the last time she visited her.
“Do have some herbal soup before you sleep.”
The elderly lady nodded happily at Janet. As she liked Janet a great deal, she was willing to do everything she said.
After making sure that the elderly lady had finished the herbal soup, Janet thought it was time for her to leave. “I should get going. Please ask Mason to give me a call if you experience any discomfort,” she urged.
As obedient as a puppet, the elderly lady nodded at her. Janet then closed the door gently and left the bedroom. Almost immediately, an aroma of food wafted in the air and entered her nostrils. Out of curiosity, she glanced down at the living room before dashing to the kitchen. She was greeted by the sight of a man with a tall and muscular build.
At that moment, there was no one else other than the man and her in the living room of Lowry Residence. What was even more staggering was that it was Mason who was cooking, wearing nothing but an apron. It was no better from being completely naked. Damn it!
Mason, who had his back facing Janet, curled the corners of his lips up slightly into a smirk. Hmm… she’s here. “How is my grandmother?” Mason turned round, his smirk vanishing.
It was a long moment before Janet responded, “Uh… She’s fallen asleep after having the herbal soup.” My god! She had to admit that Mason had a really attractive body! Not only was he tall, his body was muscular and well-toned, especially his chest and abdomen; he also had an Apollo’s Belt! Janet cleared her throat before moving her eyes away from his body.
“Do I look that good?”
It was only then did Janet realize that she was so mesmerized by his body that she had spaced out. Mason flashed her a roguish and charming smile, looking out of this world.
“I wasn’t even paying attention to your body! How shameless you are!” Janet cleared her throat awkwardly, her ears reddening without her realizing.
Mason chuckled in response. “This is my home; shouldn’t I be allowed to do as I please?” As he was talking, he walked toward Janet.
She was transfixed by the depth of his penetrating stare. As he edged closer, her heart started to thump fast, turning her speechless. He must be a fiend because every single movement of his was alluring and captivating. She reckoned he must be many girl’s dream.
“How does it smell?” Mason moved the dish close to her, giving her a whiff.
“Alright, I guess.” Her stomach started rumbling instantly because she had yet to have her lunch after taking two hours to brew the herbal soup for Old Madam Lowry.
“Go ahead and wash your hands.”
Janet nodded at him and entered the bathroom. She stared in the mirror at the rare crimson patches on her cheeks, her heart beating a mile a minute. She was very disappointed in herself for reacting in this way in the presence of a good-looking man.
Since she was offered a free meal by the great Mr. Mason Lowry, she thought she had to accept his kind gesture in return for her painstaking effort in treating Old Madam Lowry. The meal consisted of four dishes and a soup, which all turned out to be Janet’s favorite. What a coincidence.
“Why was Jennifer Lewis suddenly expelled from your school?” Mason deliberately brought up the question so that he could observe Janet’s reaction.
“What makes you think I know anything about it?” Amused, Janet looked up at him and countered. She bit her chopsticks and continued, “Do you know Jennifer?”
Obviously, the two brilliant people were playing dumb with each other.
Mason shook his head and drawled, “I don’t know her, but some of my men are her fans and they were quite sad to learn about her expulsion.”
Janet sneered, “I can only say that their judgment in women sucks.” With that, she put down the chopsticks and took her backpack. “I should get going then. Thanks for the meal!”
…
Leaning against her desk in the classroom at Star High School, Janet was trying hard to fight back the urge to sleep because she had gone to bed too late last night. She was so bothered by how she had succumbed to Mason’s charm that she didn’t sleep well. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Noticing that she was dozing off, Gordon patted her shoulder and asked, “Janet, did you sneak out to do something unspeakable last night?”
“Nope.” Janet shrugged off his hand on her shoulder. There was no way she could tell Gordon that she had seen Mason Lowry’s naked body yesterday!
