Chapter 2628
That day, Eliza’s hair was in a sleek ponytail to make it easier to play
badminton. She wore black leggings, a purple sports T-shirt, and white
sports shoes. Her delicate and clean ankles were revealed.
Eliza’s badminton skills were not bad.
When she bent her waist, Chester could see her nicely-shaped bottom from
his position. Sometimes when she jumped, her chest looked good too.
It was not that Chester had not touched them before. He was familiar with
every part of her body.
Maybe it was because he had not been with a woman lately.
He took a cigarette, lit it up, and took a few drags.
Freya, who was opposite him, was unhappy looking at him. She hinted at
Eliza with her eyes in secret.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEliza was speechless.
She did not really understand.
Not long after, she saw Freya hitting a high overhand shot.
She turned around to chase after the shuttlecock and receive it. When she saw the shuttlecock failing in Chester’s
direction, she immediately figured it out.
To not disappoint Freya’s efforts, Eliza pretended to try to receive the shuttlecock. Her racket swung at the cigarette
in Chester’s hand with a loud sound.
The cigarette was hit, and it fell to the ground. Some sparks fell on Chester’s arm and burned him. He quickly stood
up and dusted the sparks off his arm.
However, a large patch on the delicate back of his hand was reddened.
When Chester raised his head, his eyes behind the lenses were utterly ruthless. “ Don’t you have eyes?”
Eliza’s little face darkened.
Freya quickly approached them. “Ah, I’m sorry, President Jewell. It’s all my fault. I missed. I shouldn’t have hit the
shuttlecock in your direction.”
“What’s wrong?”
Ryan and his friend were walking over from the arena’s entrance together.
Seeing that his girlfriend was apologizing to someone else, he quickened his steps and walked to Freya’s side. “What
happened?”
Freya pouted aggrievedly. “My shuttlecock accidentally landed on President Jewell just now. Eliza was single-
mindedly thinking of receiving it and didn’t pay attention, so she hit President Jewell’s cigarette.”
“It’s okay.” The ruthlessness in Chester’s eyes faded. He spoke indifferently.
“President Jewell is forgiving. He won’t take this matter to heart.” Ryan patted Freya’s head gently. He knew his
girlfriend’s temper well. He was clear whether she did it on purpose or not.
However, he felt that Freya was too rash. She managed to vent her anger
for that moment, but it would make Chester target Eliza more.
“Smoking is not allowed in the arena.” Suddenly, the man who came with
Ryan spoke, “It’s written on the wall that smoking is prohibited.”
The few people immediately looked toward him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man who spoke looked similar in age to Ryan. He had a buzz cut, and
his skin tone was slightly darker. However, his sharp eyebrows were
striking, and his nose was tall. His features and silhouette were well-
defined. There was a kind of sharpness about his brows and eyes.
What was rarer was that the person had a straight back and a tall body. He
was like a sharp blade that was out of its sheath.
Eliza was stunned. She met that person’s gaze for a few seconds. Then, she
quickly averted her gaze.
“Ryan, is this your friend?” Freya’s eyes brightened. “Quick. Introduce him.”
Ryan saw Freya’s gaze. He felt stuffy for a few seconds before saying, “This
is Max Langston, my classmate. We’re studying Ph.D. together.”
A moment of deep thought flashed across Chester.
“You’re so tall.” Freya shook Max’s hand. She was taken aback. There were
many calluses on his hand, but those calluses did not seem to come from
frequent laborious work. It looked more like the ones she saw at the official
residence...
