Chapter 27

Alice stood in the corridor, exchanging glances with Luke. Luke, his pride wounded, said aggressively, “You came to see the joke, didn’t you? Is it funny? Watching others laugh at our family team, are you satisfied now?”

Alice shot back, “It’s because you’re just not good enough.”

At that moment, the Mount team arrived at the back. Alice looked at their captain, the one who’d insulted her.“Let me ask you something, are you an orphan with no parents?”

The captain scowled.“What do you mean?”

“Literally, with a mouth like yours, I figured your parents must have passed away early, no one taught you manners.”

“Brat, say that again if you dare!” He was furious.

Alice said coldly, “In the upcoming match, if you lose, you better apologize publicly to the reporters for insulting my parents!”

“We’ll lose? You must be dreaming!”

“What’s the matter, scared to agree? Feeling guilty?” Alice’s taunts reeled him in, “Fine, if you lose, your captain will apologize for his words, too.”

The Mount team left angrily. Alice remained calm; she knew how to win. But the atmosphere in the Landing Team turned awkward.

Luke said irritably, “If we lose, you go apologize yourself. You’re not even on the team; why are you making decisions?”

“I just want that guy to apologize, nothing else.”

As Alice finished, Noah rushed over, “Alice, I’m glad you’re here. Our family can finally be together.”
