The Queen's Back

Chapter 139

Under the light of the setting sun, Haley seemed covered in a golden halo. When Albert opened his eyes in a daze, he felt that she was a little cute.

But when he regained his senses, he decided he had to have been still half-sleep just now. He followed her back to the ward.

Having discovered Haley had a talent for sports, Albert said, "Haley, I want to discuss something with you."

"Tell me," Haley said casually. Her intuition told her that it was not something good.

"Well, what do you think of me?"

"What do you mean? Be clear."

"Well, although you look petite, you're very good at running and fighting. I want to train with you. Will you teach me?" Albert asked.

He still had a few days of leave left from the army. If Haley could teach him over the next few days, he should improve. Moreover, now that his grandfather's condition had stabilized, he had nothing to do in the hospital. Haley shook her head and said, "No."

"Why? Don't you find it boring to train alone? Besides, I'm not bad either. I can accompany you. Let's strive to be better together." Albert quickly walked forward and stood in front of Haley.

Haley continued to shake her head and said, "It's not boring to train alone. Moreover, you're very lousy and can't keep up with my pace. You'll slow me down."

Albert thought Haley's words made sense. After all, he could not run for the entire afternoon without even panting, like she did. However, his desire to have Haley teach him grew stronger. What can I do to change your mind about teaching me?" Haley thought for a moment and rejected without hesitation, "Nothing."

Albert's mind spun quickly. He thought about what Haley liked chicken drumsticks. He quickly said, "If you teach me, I'll treat you to chicken drumsticks every day. How about that?"

Mona will give them for me." As Haley spoke, she quickened her pace,

remembered her deal with Albert last night. She wanted her chicken drumsticks and steak. After some hesitation, she sat on the sofa again. When the clock turned six o'clock, Haley couldn't wait any longer and walked to Albert's room. She was about to knock when she realized she could open the door with a push. Albert hadn't locked the door when he went to sleep last night. Without thinking, Haley kicked the door open and strode into Albert's room. Seeing Albert still
