After sitting down, Janet placed her phone and cap aside.
As she took her food, she casually asked the man before her, “Well, what did you want to talk to me about?”
Mason was putting some roasted brinjal onto her plate when his eyes dimmed. With a deep voice, he said, “I’ll be teaching at Woodsbury University starting tomorrow.”
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere turned silent for a moment.
The spoon that was about to reach Janet’s mouth stopped as she became puzzled.
Seeing her reaction, Mason chuckled. “Mr. Goldstein and I have already made the decision some time ago. It was only delayed because of your military training.”
Surprisingly, Janet’s reaction was subtle. With little expression on her face, she only responded with a simple ‘Oh’.
“What?” Mason asked when he saw that she was indifferent about it instead of being surprised. “Don’t you want to see me?”
Casually, Janet helped him to some codfish and said nonchalantly, “Of cod I do.”
Of cod I do?
Of course I do?
Mason narrowed his eyes as the edges of his lips curled into a wicked and charming smile.
Meanwhile, Black Python poured her a glass of water. “Miss Jackson, if I’m not mistaken, there will be a performance at the party that your school is organizing?”
Janet raised her eyebrow and a mischievous look surfaced. “That’s right.”
Upon seeing an indifferent expression on Black Python’s face, she continued, “Do you want to come and watch the show?”
Stealing a glance at Mason, he said, “Not if Young Master Mason isn’t going.”
Tsk! Liar.
Turning to the other man, Janet casually asked, “Are you coming?”
Mason paused in his movement before he said slowly, “Sure, I guess.”
As soon as Black Python heard this, he slammed his palm on the table and shot up from his seat. “I’ll inform Mr. Goldstein right away.”
Janet was speechless. Did Black Python want to go because he wants to see Sharon?
After cleaning her hands with the serviette, Janet placed her hand on Mason’s lap and let it roam freely. With a raised eyebrow, she teased him. “Are you eager to watch the pretty girls dance?”
From what she heard, the dances that each school were going to perform this year would be pretty hot!
Tsk! This man is in for a treat.
Putting down his utensils, Mason narrowed his eyes and grabbed her ‘naughty’ hand. “Don’t you know who I want to see?”
Janet blinked. “But I won’t be performing on stage.” I told him yesterday, didn’t I?
“There’s no difference to me whether you’re watching below the stage or performing on stage.” Mason squeezed her soft hand.
As a matter of fact, he couldn’t control his emotions whenever he laid eyes on her.
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere became charged .
Just then, Black Python came back inside after making the phone call.
Janet retracted her hand and casually rested it in front of her.
“Mr. Goldstein said he would make the arrangements,” Black Python reported.
Mason hummed in response before leaning against his chair.
“By the way, what identity will you be using at our school?” Janet glanced at the man, then got up and poured him a glass of iced water in an attempt to cool him down.
“I’ll be joining as a computer science professor,” Mason answered.
Computer science?
“Are you proficient at computer science?” she asked doubtfully.
“Of course. Young Master Mason’s hacking skills are the best in Lowry Family Conglomerate,” Black Python said.
“How so?” Janet was intrigued.
“Previously, one of our systems was attacked by professional hackers. It was Young Master Mason who stepped in and settled it. Although the system ended up being busted, it wasn’t because Young Master Mason was incompetent, but because the opponent was extraordinarily skilled.” Black Python was talkative when it came to the subject of hackers.
Until now, they still didn’t know who was the hacker who attacked Black Rain’s system. In fact, this incident was the conglomerate’s biggest shame.
