Just moments before Mason paid for his purchase, something dawned upon him that prompted him to make his way back to the undergarment department and scanned his surroundings.
Henry and Sean first exchanged inquisitive glances before catching up with Mason. What greeted them next was the sight of Mason picking up a pink panty with his slender finger and eyeing it puzzledly. He was wondering what size Janet wore.
Henry couldn’t help but burst out laughing when he saw him. “Young Master Mason, I can see that you’re buying panties for our future sister-in-law. Hmm… what color do you have in mind?” Then, he took over that pink panty from Mason and started examining it.
Mason’s face turned sullen in an instant. Then, he walked out of the area and said to the cashier, “I’ll take all the panties except the one that the pervert is holding.”
Appearing affronted at once, Henry confronted Mason, “Young Master Mason, who are you referring to?” What he said cracked Sean up, thinking that it served Young Master Moss right for touching the stuff chosen by Young Master Mason.
Mason raised his brow at Henry and stared at him coldly. “How many women have you touched with your hands? They are disgusting.” Henry was left speechless. Shouldn’t he at least make some effort to protect his image in public?
When Sean was carrying one shopping bag after another into the car, the passersby eyed them curiously. In the meantime, Mason put on a pair of sunglasses because he didn’t want to be bothered by their stares.
When he made it back to Star High School, he took one panty of each size because he had no idea what size she wore. At first, he thought of giving her a call to ask her but he was too embarrassed to do so…
“Wait for me at the gate.” After leaving behind that instruction, he made his way to the school clinic by himself. He then found Janet lying on the bed with her back facing the door inside and she seemed to have fallen fast asleep. Listening to her steady breathing, he walked over to her bed in light footsteps and then to the water dispenser to fetch her a cup of water.
“Who’s that?” Janet woke with a start and her eyes were tinged with a trace of caution. She turned around and found herself staring right into Mason’s eyes.
He narrowed his eyes at her, surprised by her alertness as she could still hear his footsteps despite him having made them as light as possible.
After making sure that the man was Mason, Janet rose to her feet and took the cup of water from him. “Why are you still here?” she looked up at him and asked.
With a roguish smirk, he bent down to stroke her beautiful pointed nose and taunted, “How cruel you are. You just can’t wait to chase me away as soon as I have bought you the things you need, huh?”
Janet, whose face reddened slightly, ignored him. He then threw a carrier bag onto the bed and muttered, “There are some new panties inside that you can change into.” Looking at her two crimson cheeks, he closed his eyes and turned around to face her with his back. However, he didn’t hear the sound of her getting changed even after a long while.
“What’s the problem? Is the size not right for you?” Mason parted his lips slightly and spoke in a slightly husky and alluring voice. His voice traveled slowly into the air which was charged with sexual tension and it made her heart flutter.
Janet thought she was great at keeping her cool but at that moment, his voice sent a ripple in her heart which was usually as calm as a pool of still water. A tingling sensation surged through her body as though there were feathers brushing against her heart. “How am I supposed to get changed when you’re here?” Janet sounded anxious.
“I’m not peeping,” Mason raised his brows while saying calmly.
Janet ended up being speechless because she had no idea how to refute him. Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath before bellowing at him, “Just get out.”
Not surprised at all by her outburst, Mason let out a chuckle instead of getting angry. “Get it done quick then. I’ll be waiting for you outside.”
In a deft movement, it didn’t even take her two minutes to change into a fresh set of garments and she felt much more rejuvenated after taking the painkiller and a bowl of brown sugar water. Then, she opened the door and shook her head in resignation when she saw the man who was waiting for her outside. She walked over to him and patted his shoulder. “Thank you very much for your help today. You should return to your office now because I have to get back to class.”
Mason responded to what she said with a frown. “Do you feel better now? Are you sure you are fit enough to attend the class?”
“Do you think I don’t know myself well enough even though I’m a doctor?” Janet retorted stubbornly.
With a sly smile, Mason countered, “Are you trying to make me crazy over you by appearing weak and vulnerable in front of me on so many occasions?”
