Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 189

Gwen guessed that Annalise might ask her to remove her makeup, but she would not do as Annalise wanted. If Annalise wanted Gwen to remove her makeup, she would have to raise the stakes and bet on the entire future of traditional medicine. Annalise would not have such courage.

Even if Annalise did, would the other traditional medicine practitioners on her team allow her to mess around? With this thought in mind, Gwen calmed down even more. “Good morning, Ms. Raven. You look quite energetic today,” Annalise said with a smile. Annalise noticed her heavy makeup. She did not doubt that Gwen’s face had a breakout. Gwen and Annalise were talking face to face. Many people’s eyes were twinkling, gossiping among themselves. It was time to sit back and watch the show.

“Yeah, I’m in good spirits because I’m happy. Ms. Barton, you know why I’m so happy, don’t you?” Gwen smiled confidently. She wanted to use her words to tell everyone that she did not have acne. The modern medicine team had Won.

“Ms. Raven, your makeup is so thick. Is it because your under-eye circles were too dark? Did you not sleep well last night?” Annalise asked curiously. She said nothing about acne. She knew that someone would mention it later. Yesterday, Annalise could already tell that Gwen was going to get pimples.

Typically, acne would not happen overnight just because one was frustrated. It would happen after one bottled up their emotions for a few days. Also, endocrine imbalances would cause one to be prone to acne. Yesterday, when Annalise saw Gwen’s dark circles, bloodshot eyes, and fatigued expression, she knew that Gwen had been suffering from insomnia and was about to develop acne. To make Gwen’s face break out, Annalise deliberately said those words to deceive Gwen so that she could not sleep. “No, I slept very well last night. I even had sweet dreams,” Gwen said with a smile. Let’s sit down and talk,” Annalise said. NôvelDrama.Org content.

“Ms. Barton, are you trying to stall for time? Why don’t you propose a time to end the bet? Because we had not agreed on the time yesterday, I thought that the time we met in the morning was when the bet

would end,” Gwen spoke demurely. “Acne doesn’t happen in ten minutes or even half an hour. Let’s finish at eleven o’clock. It would be just in time for lunch,” Annalise said. “Sure.” Gwen readily agreed.

She knew that Annalise suspected she had acne. Annalise had been testing her. Therefore, she could not give herself away. Her makeup was picture-perfect, and it would not run until the afternoon. Julian personally went to get some food. Annalise had quietly asked him to get it just now. They were all tropical fruits, including mangoes, durians, and others.

Gwen knew about traditional medicine. She knew that these fruits were considered foods that might trigger a breakout. Typically, she liked to eat durians the most. But at that moment, she pinched her nose and said to Annalise, “I’m sorry, Ms. Barton. I can’t stand its smell. I won’t eat it.”

“It’s okay. I’ll eat it. What would you like to eat?” Annalise did not intend to give it to Gwen. She just wanted to see her reaction. ‘No need. I’m not eating,” Gwen said. Not far away, many people were watching them anxiously. “When will it end?” “That’s right. Why are they still chatting?”

“Don’t tell me they’ll be friends and say that modern and traditional medicine are both great. What if they settle on a draw? Won’t that be the same as pulling our legs? I’ve already paid the deposit for my new car.” “How is that possible? Annalise and Gwen aren’t qualified to decide the outcome of the bet.”

“True. Let’s hope they get it over with soon. Women are so troublesome.”

There were a few moments of silence. Annalise ate the fruit and pushed a plate of mango in front of Gwen. “Ms. Raven, are you sure you won’t eat some?” “No, I don’t eat fruits that are yellow in color,” Gwen said. or not?”

Someone in the crowd could not help but ask loudly, “Hey, Gwen. Do you have pimples Hearing this question, Annalise looked up at Gwen. “Oh, right. Ms. Raven, did you get any pimples?” “Of course not,” Gwen said with a confident smile. “Then, why did you put on so much makeup?” Gwen smiled and raised her eyebrows. “Why? Is it against the rules?”

“Of course not. Ms. Raven, please wait for me. I need to go to the washroom. I’ll be right back.” Annalise suddenly stood up. “Alright… Uh, what are you doing?” Gwen suddenly felt something on her face. It was like a mist, making her unable to open her eyes. Then, she caught the whiff of a makeup remover.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Ms. Raven. I was too careless. Let me help you wipe it off. I’m sorry.” Annalise had poured a glass of makeup remover on Gwen’s face. At that moment, she took a tissue paper and rubbed it under Gwen’s nose. “Oh, let go! Let go of me. Take your hands away.” Gwen was so angry. She wanted to cover her face. How could Annalise possibly listen to her? Annalise pushed Gwen’s hand away.

Who did Gwen think she was? Annalise was a personal disciple of Dariel Randall. She was already more powerful than most men, let alone a weak woman like Gwen. Gwen wanted to cover her face and run away, but it was impossible. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling.

Annalise was such an unreasonable woman. She was so unpredictable, and she had thrown Gwen a curveball. A normal person would not do such a thing. She had poured makeup remover on Gwen’s face without her permission. She was so arrogant that she completely disobeyed rules and etiquette.

However, Annalise had made the right bet. What should Gwen do now? Mina heard the commotion and rushed over. First and foremost, she came over to look at Gwen’s face. In the morning, she saw that Gwen had no acne.

When Gwen saw Mina, she shouted, “Mina, pull this lunatic away from me. She’s too much of a bully. What are you guys waiting for? Is no one in the modern medicine team willing to stand up to her? Are we going to let her team bully us?”

When Mina heard this, she immediately pulled Gwen over. When Gwen saw Mina coming over to help, she immediately got up and hid her face behind Mina. But afterward, Mina burst with excitement and

said, “Gwen, you have two pimples! Traditional medicine is so amazing.”

Gwen was speechless. She thought, “Mina, you stupid thing. Are we even on the same team?” Mina’s words were like a bomb. It made everyone in the hall explode with nervous excitement. Many people cursed. “Fuck. Is this for real? She has acne?” “That’s impossible Her face is so smooth.”

“Sigh. Makeup techniques nowadays are so scary. Even fifty year old women can turn into eighteen- year-old girls. I heard some of those women even dated young hunks for a year or two No one was the wiser.”

“I don’t care about that. What I care about is my money I fucking bet 15 million dollars on Gwen. Once she has a pimple, my money will go down the drain!” “I bet 15 million on her. Oh, my god. Let me die!” Everyone was speechless,

“Ms. Raven, you have acne. Our traditional medicine team won!” Annalise looked at Gwen and said. “Do you think it’s appropriate for you to use such despicable methods? Huh?” At that moment, Gwen was in a sorry state

“I’m sorry about the makeup remover. However, this is the simplest, most direct, and most effective way. You’re the one who used makeup to cover it up first. Even if I ask you to remove your makeup in public, I believe you won’t agree. I’m sure you will find a reason to refuse. In that case, since you can use your method, I can use mine,” Annalise said.
