Sean refused to answer Mason for the longest time. “Yesterday, she held me while claiming that she wants to marry me, but she denied it once she got out of bed,” Mason explained unhappily while cocking a brow.
Sean was at a loss and he thought, I see, Young Master Mason was bothered by this earlier in the morning! “Young Master Mason, in all honesty, I am not well-versed in these matters. However, based on Miss Jackson’s personality, she is not the type of person who would deny things that she has said. Maybe she was joking earlier.”
Mason’s expression changed drastically when he heard that and he smirked. “A joke?” He laughed mirthlessly. It was obvious that he was unhappy with Sean’s answer! In fact, he seemed upset about it.
Sean noticed that something was amiss, so he changed his approach. “Miss Jackson must have forgotten about it. Why don’t you bring it up again when you have a chance?”
After considering all the possibilities and coupled with Sean’s reply, Mason believed that the theory of Janet forgetting about what she said was the most plausible reason.
Therefore, he grunted in response. “I will ask her to marry me after resolving the issue with Shadow 1.”
Something flashed through Sean’s gaze. Miss Jackson is still in freshman class. Will she agree to it? Will she become Mrs. Lowry very soon?
In Woodsbury University’s laboratory, a few penultimate year students from the medical school were gathered together in a whispered discussion.
“I heard that Professor Fontaine is planning to assign a freshman together with us to participate in the surgery.”
“That can’t be true! Are you kidding me? My guess is that a freshman hasn’t even learned the most basic clinical skills.”
“That’s right! Is your news inaccurate?”
“Impossible! I heard Professor Fontaine mentioning it in person. I think her name is Jane Jackson or something.”
“Janet Jackson, you mean?”
“Isn’t Janet Jackson the champion for the International Medical Competition for Novice? She defeated Melissa Rocher from the Rocher Family in Yobril!”
“Oh, d*mn! If it’s really Janet, she might very well join us for the surgery training.”
“Oh, d*mn! Isn’t that rather unfair?! After all, we are in our third year, but she has the opportunity to operate when she’s still in her freshman year.”
“She is the champion of the International Medical Competition. Fairness does not exist in this situation.”
“That is right. Professor Fontaine is obviously taking her side. What could we possibly say?”
“However, if Tina had participated in the competition this time, she could have won it too.”
“That is right! If it was not for Tina Favre’s health conditions causing her to miss the previous training and her inability to participate in the competition, I am sure she would have performed well.”
The person, named Tina Favre, was a third year student in the medical school. She had always been an outstanding student in the medical school from freshman year to third year. She was the top student in Woodsbury University’s internal exams, which included both the theory and practical exams. Unfortunately, she could not take part in the training previously due to her health conditions. That was why she could not take part in the competition.
At that moment, a woman’s voice suddenly rang outside the door. Her tone was not impressive and she sounded ordinary too. “What are you guys chatting about?”
The senior students, who were in the medical laboratory, turned when they heard the voice.
It was Tina standing outside the door.
Speaking of the Devil.
Those closer to Tina approached her swiftly and they started to gossip. “Tina, have you heard that Professor Fontaine is assigning a freshman student in our practical project? This means that we are forced to complete our assignments with an inexperienced freshman.”
What? Does Professor Fontaine actually expect third year students, who are about to graduate, to work with a freshman to complete a surgery? Isn’t that a joke? Who could have received such an honor to complete the practical subject with us?!
Tina frowned slightly and she asked, “A freshman? Is it the one named Janet Jackson?””
“That’s right! Who else is popular in the medical world apart from her?” a few penultimate year students commented in jealousy.
When we were in our freshman year, we were still learning about basic medical theory. Now, Janet is allowed to practice her surgical skills when she’s still in her freshman year! It is impossible not to be jealous of her.
