My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 337

Chapter 337

Tears flowed down her cheeks when Janet met eyes with Russell.

“Grandpa!”

She dived into her grandfather’s arms as she sobbed out loudly.

I am so fortunate this time. If it weren’t for Ashlyn who came to save me on time, I would be raped by that man right then.

Luck is really on my side for this.

After sending Janet to the police station, Ashlyn immediately left coolly.

With a wave of her hand, her men returned to the row of Mercedes Benz that were waiting at the police station in an orderly fashion.

It was a majestic sight to behold as the row of Mercedes left the police station together.

The police gaped at the unbelievable sight in surprise.

Who’s this woman? Why is she able to have so many martially trained men under her command?

“So you mean it was this Ms. Berry who saved you just now?” Russell felt his heart racing as he listened to his granddaughter’s narration of the events.

He was relieved to find his granddaughter safe and sound, yet he was also surprised by the identity of the person who had saved Janet.

Russell was not alone; even Chief Chase was surprised by the revelation.

“Wow! Ms. Berry is a really good example of a heroine who defends the weak and eliminates violence. I just gave her a silk banner of appreciation two days ago though…”

Seems like I have to give her another banner again. At this rate, I don’t think we can make all those banners for her in time.

“Indeed! Ms. Berry is so suave!” Janet covered her face in excitement as she fangirled over the incredibly suave image of Ashlyn kicking the rapist’s ass across the room.

She suddenly turned to Russell with a serious expression. “Grandpa, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?” Russell asked her lovingly. He would not hesitate to fulfill any wish of hers, even if it were as unreasonable as picking the stars for her.

“I want to join the army, and I want to start right from the bottom. I cannot continue being such a useless girl who idly wanders around the State Concert Hall anymore. I need to realize my worth and be a worthy person who can contribute to society!”

Janet’s eyes were sparkling with determination as she said that. “I am born a Smith, where all its family members are members of the army, yet I am the only one who enjoys such an idle life. Since I am born into such a family, why should I refrain from being a soldier? I want to contribute to the country like Gerald and be a worthy savior like Ms. Berry!”

Gerald Smith was Janet’s younger brother, who had graduated from a military school and was now the Colonel in his army.

Tonight had been a roller-coaster ride for Russell, as he was in a constant state of shock and panic with his granddaughter’s kidnap.

But no news was as shocking as Janet’s declaration to join the army.

She had been brought up as a spoiled girl for most of her life. Hence, although she was born into a family of soldiers and also had the fearless personality of a soldier, she was absolutely repulsed by the idea of joining the army and make herself suffer from such a tough life.

Earlier on, both Russell and Janet’s father, Christopher Smith, had wanted to send Janet into the army for training.

Even if she couldn’t achieve anything in the army, it would serve as a good experience to tone down her spoiled character.

However, Janet simply refused to go and even threatened to commit suicide if they pursue the matter further.

Because of that, Russell had to give up on that arrangement.

Now, the spoiled Janet who had so adamantly refused their arrangements actually requested to join the army herself!

What a shocking turn of events!

“Janet, are you sure about this?” Russell was so surprised by her request that he only managed to find his voice after some time.

“Grandpa, it’s my fault for being such a spoiled brat. From now on, I’m making Ms. Berry my idol and learn from her. I will work hard to be a woman like her and aspire to be an outstanding woman who could live freely and independently. I shall live my life to the fullest like how she did, instead of being the useless slime I am now,” Janet replied seriously.

The moment Ashlyn charged into the room, Janet could feel her heart ran wild in exhilaration.

She wanted to be the light that shines on the life of others, just like how Ashlyn did for her.

When Janet made this declaration of hers, no one had ever expected she would one day became one of the most highly ranked female military officer in the army.

Right then, the police in charge of the case came over to them. “Mr. Smith, Chief Chase. I have tried to interrogate the criminals, but they remained tight-lipped and refused to spill more. All they have mentioned throughout the interrogation is that they are desperate for money and that they only kidnapped Ms. Smith to get some ransom.”

“Well, I’m sure it’s not the ransom they want. If they want the money, they would’ve called my Grandpa from the start.” Janet frowned. “I remember that plump dude mentioned in his drunken state that he would let me go on the day after tomorrow, so I think there’s some hidden agenda behind this.”
