Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 799 Their High School Days

It wasn't hard to spot the arrogant boy because the basketball was in his hands. He definitely lived up to his

arrogance.

The opposing players blocking his path were like an impenetrable wall, trying to stop him at every turn. However, he seemed unfazed, casually dribbling the ball.

With a quick fake, he tricked his opponent, smoothly spinning and dribbling past them. His school jacket that was tied around his waist flared out in an arc.

The word "elegant" came to Emelie's mind. Who would've thought someone could make a sport as intense and aggressive as basketball seem elegant?

He had long limbs and a perfect build, and the look in his eyes as he focused ahead was like that of a leopard- determined, deadly, and unstoppable.

He leaped into the air, aiming the ball at the hoop.

The girls watching gasped, convinced that the shot was secured.

The girls screamed and scrambled to get out of the way.
