Mason stared at Janet who was lying at a 45-degree angle on the bed with a deep crease on his forehead. “How’s her condition?” he asked.
The doctor answered him candidly, “She’s only having her period. In fact, I can see she doesn’t take care of her body well enough because she should know that she has to refrain from doing vigorous exercise during her period.”
The doctor then glanced at Mason and frowned with dissatisfaction as he criticized, “As her boyfriend, why didn’t you remind her of that? I heard from her classmates that she just participated in the high jump event… Fortunately, her body is strong enough or she would have suffered something serious!”
Mason parted his lips intending to say something but thought better of it in the end.
Staring at Mason, the doctor jotted down something on a piece of paper before she instructed, “Please buy everything onthis list.”
Mason took the piece of paper with his slender fingers and glanced at it to find that everything stated inside was something he was familiar with. As he had done something similar before, he could handle the task well.
“Oh, please buy her some new panties too because she has to change the one she’s wearing now. I think you should get her the disposable type because normal panties have to be washed before wearing and she can’t wait that long.”
Two crimson patches appeared on Mason’s cheeks right away.
Janet too turned her face away from Mason in embarrassment.
Mason gulped as he was stupefied.
Seeing that he was rooted to the spot, the doctor urged him to get going. “Why are you behaving so shy about it? As a couple, I believe the two of you have already seen each other’s bodies.”
Turning her head around, Janet’s beautiful face was as red as a tomato when she cleared her throat and clarified, “He isn’t my boyfriend.”
The doctor sized them up before shaking her head in confusion. “Young couples like the two of you always break up easily once you guys start fighting with each other. Why didn’t the two of you just tell me that you guys already broke up with each other?”
Mason went speechless.
“Go on and buy the stuff now!” The doctor badgered Mason before turning round to advise Janet, “Girl, you’re fine now and you may go back to your class after your boyfriend brings back all the things you need.”
With that, the doctor walked away.
“You can take a short nap and I’ll wake you up when I’m back.” Mason was worried that she couldn’t put up with the pain because after all, he had witnessed how hard she battled with it before.
“I’m not that weak,” Janet countered stubbornly with her head tilted to one side.
Mason stared at the girl who pretended to be strong with a frown, wondering when she would drop all her pretence and show her true side to him.
“You should at least take a rest. I’ll get going now.” He closed the door after walking out of her ward.
Fortunately, the students were still having classes at the time he left the school clinic. Otherwise, Janet would become the talk of the town again if he was seen.
Obviously, all credits went to the principal for doing a great job at keeping his presence a secret.
As soon as he walked out of the school gate, he found Henry and Sean waiting for him.
Henry asked in a teasing tone despite knowing the answer to his questions, “Young Master Mason, how can you decide to skip the meeting at the office just like that? Why are you at the school of our future sister-in-law?”
Sean cleared his throat as a warning for Henry to tone it down before taking the driver’s seat.
Ignoring Henry, Mason instructed Sean to drive him to a supermarket in order to get the stuff on the list.
All eyes were on Mason and the other two as soon as they stepped into the supermarket.
The cashiers and the staff members started whispering to one another.
“The three guys over there are so good-looking!”
“Look at the eyes of the tallest guy! They are so beautiful!”
“Goodness gracious, I swear I can do nothing but admire that pair of long legs for a year’s time.”
The three guys were all charming in their own unique way.
Mason was the type who could switch on his mysterious and dark charm any minute. Henry had beautiful facial features that made him look like he was capable of scoring with any woman while Sean was especially attractive with his mature and wise look.
Henry pursed his lips in resignation when he noticed that their arrival had caused a major disruption to the operation of the supermarket. “Young Master Mason, why are we shopping at such a small shop? You can just reserve the entire shopping mall if you need to buy stuff.”
“Shopping malls are too far away from here,” Mason answered him in an indifferent voice.
Following the signs, he made his way to the section of the supermarket where undergarments were sold.
The female staff member who served them was obviously so smitten by the three of them that she couldn’t even speak coherently, “S-Sirs, w-what do you need? I-I can offer you guys some assistance.”
Mason then stuffed the list into Sean’s hand and asked him to read it aloud.
Sean did it despite the embarrassment.
The female staff member then quickly put all the items stated by Sean into a carrier bag.
