Genius Wife Is Naughty Again

Chapter 79

Although she was confused, she pulled Joshua’s arm and asked in a fluster, “Joshua, why hasn’t Old

Mr. Collins called for me? I’m the star today!”“Miss Emily, Sir didn’t call for you, so don’t follow us.”

Joshua easily shook away Emily’s hand.Janet clicked her tongue and tucked her hair before leaving

together with him.For an inexplicable reason, Emily had a sense of foreboding as she looked at their

disappearing figures.Just then, Megan returned from the washroom. When she saw Emily standing

there in puzzlement, she asked, “What’s wrong?”Emily replied in nervousness, “I have no idea why Old

Mr. Collins called for Janet earlier.”A stunned Megan then dragged Emily to follow them. “Come on,

let’s go and check it out.”However, they were both stopped outside the door to the lounge.When Janet

entered the lounge, she was surprised to see the legendary Old Mr. Collins. Isn’t this the teacher who

said that I know nothing?“It’s you?” She peered at the old man before her. Isn’t this the teacher whom I

met that day?Old Mr. Collins awkwardly coughed before retrieving Master Nato’s painting, which Janet

had commented was childish when she was at the Academy of Fine Arts. He then placed the painting

in front of her. “You told me a few days ago that Master Nato’s painting when she was younger didn’t

meet your expectations, so I would like to have you amend the painting.”Janet narrowed her phoenix

eyes and glanced at him. Later, she stepped forward and picked up a brush before it was placed on a

few spots of the painting. “This carp… seems sluggish; it looks sleepy,” she remarked in a low voice

and the brush landed on the scales and eyes.He frowned. “What is your relationship with Emily

Jackson?”Upon hearing that, she curled up her red lips. “Nothing important. Look at this. It is much

better now.” She pushed the painting of a carp to him. Old Mr. Collins and Joshua’s eyes instantly

brightened. After her amendments, the painting seemed totally different than before. Without any Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

comparison, the issues of the original painting would have stayed hidden; the current version made a

world of difference after Janet amended it.On top of that, her painting style was extremely similar to

that of the one that Emily showed him. Could it be that… “Joshua, ask Emily to come over as

well.”“Huh?” Joshua was baffled.“Just do it.”“Alright!” He then left the room.When he opened the door,

he found that Emily was already waiting outside. “Sir has asked you to come in.” His tone was

calm.Emily wore a delighted expression on her face. Old Mr. Collins has finally called for me.“Mom,

wait for me outside!” She beamed at her.“Okay, quickly enter!” Megan was eager.A knocking sound on

the door was heard.Upon entering the room, Emily’s expression fell when she saw Janet. Why is this

bumpkin still lingering here…Old Mr. Collins pushed the white paper in front of Emily. “Emily, paint

something on the spot now. You can paint anything that you want.”Feeling flustered, she tentatively

replied, “Umm… Old Mr. Collins, haven’t I shown you some of my paintings? You were quite satisfied

with them as well, right?”Upon hearing her reply, his voice was deep. “I know, but I still want you to

paint something right now. If you fulfill my requirement, I’ll head out and announce that I’m accepting

you as my disciple.”“Haha, Emily, you aren’t feeling guilty, are you?” Janet scoffed.Seeing her reaction,

she finally understood why Old Mr. Collins would accept Emily as his disciple—it turned out that it was

her paintings that Emily had shown him.“Why would I be guilty? What nonsense are you saying?” Emily

pointed at Janet’s face and furiously exclaimed. “Then, you should paint now.” She cast a glance at the

piece of white paper with a raised eyebrow
