Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Hey , did you hear ? The record breaking winner this time was a petite girl , and apparently , shes super cute .

I saw bert Shes like a real life doll absolutely stunning No way ! Is she really that pretty ! Think she flirted her way through the game ? Actually , people suspected cheating and demanded footage .

Guess what happened ! What Turns out , shes a beast .

On the seventh floor , there was this two meter tall bodybuilder .

The guy charged at her , and she took him down with a single shoulder throw .

No way ! Yep .

That dude weighs at least 300 pounds , and she flipped him like it was nothing .

Thats insane .

Im genuinely impressed Leia and Connor sat in the waiting area after being eliminated , waiting for Noelle and Harley to come down .

As players filed in , the buzz about Noelles performance filled the air .

Leia sat stiffly , her face frozen as if someone had stolen her sense of reality .

Noelle really he Could really be that good ? Leia thought .

The final results confirmed two winners : Noelle , with a record breaking time of 15 minutes and 2 seconds , and Harley , clocking in at and 52 seconds When the game officially ended , Noelle and Harley emerged from the elevator together .

Noelle was carrying a gleaming gold trophy , bouncing happily .

She practically radiated joy .

401 minutes Harley walked beside her , exuding his usual cool demeanor .

But his head was tilted slightly , his gaze never leaving Noelle .

The subtle smile on his lips betrayed a warmth that made his interest clear .

Harley , Noelle , youre finally back ! Connor sprang to his feet , waving at them .

Connor Sorry to keep you waiting Noelle replied , her voice bright and sunny as she smiled at him .

* Noelle , youre amazing , Connor gushed .

Fifteen minutes to clear all fifteen floors ? Youre the fastest player in the history of The Escape .

Im in Noelle tilted her chin up proudly .

Of course ! Im super awesome She wasnt the type t to downplay her achievements .

Compliments were like fuel to her fire she thrived on them .

Leia , meanwhile , seethed internally .

Whats there to brag about ? Sure , Noelle might have some physical talent , but she was so tacky about it .

There wasnt a shred of grace or decorum in her behavior .

Noelle , now that weve finished this game , should we check out another activity ? Harley asked , his tone warm .
