Chapter 901: Second chance

"I changed my mind. I don't want to leave this team yet."

Charles frowned at Jonathan's change of mind while the rest furrowed their brows. Atlas arched a brow, while Hugo tilted his head to the side. Meanwhile, Zoren blinked innocently, and then Dean sneered at Jonathan. freewebnovel.com

"You can't just do that," Dean commented, back at it again. "Weren't you saying it's for the team?"

"Taking the bench is for the team, of course. However, if I really want to win, then I should play on this team as well."

"Do you think you can learn this game in the blink of an eye?"

"You want to see?" Jonathan took a step forward, almost reaching his limits with this irritating guy.

Dean had always been annoying, even in their first lives. However, he was more annoying in this lifetime. After all, back then, Dean was the type who would always keep his mouth shut if he didn't have anything nice to say.

The only time Dean would recklessly open his mouth was when he was in front of Zoren or arguing with him. It was the only time Dean would show emotions, albeit most of them were negative.

"This is the only time I'm going to repeat this." This time, Charles's tone turned harsh and cold, darting his eyes between Dean and Jonathan. "Antagonizing each other won't help. Plus One, you can't just change your mind. Even though I know you're motivated, Dean has a point. Determination isn't enough to win, especially if you don't know the game."

"What if I can learn it?" Jonathan returned, his tone confident. "Coach, I admit I've never played this game before. However, I play other sports that keep me physically active and fit. I'm a quick learner, so if I'm given enough time, I'm sure I can keep up with those guys."

He tilted his head toward their opponents, eyes fixed on Charles. "Just give me a chance. If I don't improve, then I won't say a word, even if this guy opens his mouth again."

"How much time is enough for you?" Charles asked. "I can't give you more than half of the second quarter."
