CHAPTER 135

Inside his sports car, Mason made a call.From the other end came a voice belonging to a middle-aged

man who spoke in a cautious and respectful tone, “Mr. Lowry, how can I help you?”“I heard that a

student was sent to the school clinic. Is that true?”The crease on the principal’s forehead smoothened

considerably when he realized that was why Mason called. He was so anxious and worried just now

assuming that there was some serious trouble.He responded in an airy tone, “Yes, we’re having our

sports day today and a girl was sent to the school clinic because she was exhausted. Mr. Lowry, is

there any issue with that?”The principal’s answer caused a slight furrow on Mason’s forehead. “I’ll be

there later. Please make sure no one else knows about my presence and I don’t care what method you

are going to use.”The principal was stunned for a second before he answered hesitantly, “Mr. Lowry,

the sports day is still ongoing at the moment and I’m afraid the entire school will notice you if you drive

over here.”Mason snapped frustratedly, “That’s why I wanted you to come up with ways to keep it a

secret. Can you understand me?”“Y-Yes, I can. I’ll do it now, Mr. Lowry.” The principal was so

frightened by Mason’s menacing voice that he broke out in cold sweat.Within the next minute, the

principal’s voice came blaring out from the speakers all over the campus. “The remaining sports day

events are canceled temporarily. All students are required to return to their respective classrooms

within the next five minutes and anyone who makes it back later than that will be expelled!” He added

shortly after that, “Except the student who is receiving treatment in the school clinic!”Gordon heard the

principal’s announcement not too long after he carried Janet to the school clinic. The doctor advised

him, “Gordon, you should return to the classroom too. Don’t worry because I will take care of her.”Janet

too nodded at him and urged, “Go ahead. My condition is not too serious.”Heeding their advice, Gordon

left and walked back to Class A several minutes later.At the sight of Gordon, the girls in Class A started

whispering among themselves. “I couldn’t tell that Janet was such a seductive slut from her face at all.

She pretended to be weak in front of Gordon but everyone knows how great she is at punching

people.”“I agree with you. She always sticks to Gordon like glue too.”“She’s such a show-off. Why did

she register for three sports events although she knew she couldn’t cope? It’s so obvious that she did

that so that she would have the chance to be the damsel in distress saved by Gordon.”“As far as I

know, she’s an outright attention seeker. I heard that Emily tried to stop her from joining so many sports

events but she insisted on doing so. In the end, Emily had no choice but to cave in.”As most of the girls

in the class were Gordon’s fans, their remarks were filled with resentment toward Janet and their tone

was brimming with jealousy.Listening to their comments, Gordon frowned in irritation. He stared at Content © 2024.

Madelaine and confronted her in a cold voice, “Wasn’t the list composed and submitted by Emily and

you at that time? Why do they think it was Janet who registered for the three sports events

herself?”Madelaine and Emily glanced at each other before snapping back in unison, “She could have

withdrawn from the competition if she didn’t want to go or thought she was not good enough, but she

wanted to show off!”“If Janet ends up having any serious injury, I won’t forgive the two of

you.”Madelaine and Emily shrugged indifferently in response to his threat.What was wrong with Gordon

to be so protective of that country bumpkin?The rest of the students in Class A shook their heads and

lamented, “Look at that. Janet must be a scheming b*tch to make Gordon care so much about

her.”Abby stormed out of the classroom angrily as she could no longer put up with their degrading

remarks about Janet.They shouldn’t talk like that even though they were Gordon’s fans!Noticing Abby

leaving the classroom, Gordon followed suit.Mr. Smith was just entering the class and he stared at the

two and asked quizzically, “Are the two of you skipping my class?”All he had in response was utter

silence.Meanwhile, another man had arrived at the school clinic just several minutes after Gordon

left.Staring at him dazedly for several seconds, Janet asked in a rigid tone, “Why are you here?”Mason

didn’t answer her. His chest couldn’t help but tighten when he saw her pale face.
