Chapter 298: Chapter 306

Chapter 306 Alice hesitated, then started the game, rejecting his team request. Her heart pounded. But remembering the headlines, her heart hardened. If he was getting married, why was he contacting her? The meeting he’d mentioned–was this it?

Alice wasn’t focused on the game. Meanwhile, Daniel was stunned by the rejection. He checked Alice’s game history; she’d been playing with the same man, whose username was identical to his. What was going on?

Daniel sent a screenshot to Jack.“[Bro, you made a new account? Why didn’t you add me to your games with sis–in–law?] Are you avoiding being a third wheel?”

Jack called, his voice tense.“[Who is she playing with?]”

“[Isn’t it you?]”

Jack gritted his teeth.“[No.]”

Daniel stammered, “[But sis–in–law has played many games with this guy; they’re always together. I thought it was you.]”

Jack’s face darkened, looking at the screenshot. This was why Alice was ignoring him? “[Bro, did you fight with sis–in–law?

Maybe it’s a teammate; they’re training.]* Jack finally replied, “[We had a little argument.]”

“[Did you reveal your identity? Is she angry?]”

“[No. I didn’t reply to her messages on time. Grandma got sick, and there was an emergency at the company. I only replied the next day.]”

“[Bro, you’re doomed. Not replying on time is a huge crime. Three days without a reply means. breaking up! Explain to sis–in–

law.]

Jack hung up, looking at his chat with Alice; she hadn’t replied to his messages. He felt anxious- Three days without a reply meant breaking up? He stared at his phone, looking serious.

“[Mr. Tremaine?]” An executive, noticing Jack’s seriousness, felt anxious. Jack snapped back, “[Continue.]” He left the office, grabbed his jacket, and left, looking serious His assistant followed.“[Mr. Tremaine, what’s important?]”

“[Very important. Continue the meeting. Brief me later.]”

Jack entered the elevator; he couldn’t delay any longer. He had to talk to Alice.

At the garage, Mrs. Wilson called.“[Your grandmother woke up. Come to the hospital. She wants to talk to you.]”

“[Okay.]” Jack turned his car. He texted Alice, “[Meet at the gym tonight. I know you don’t have classes.]

Alice, finishing her game, saw the message–two hours ago.

Wang Yang offered her water.“[Practice tonight?]”

“[Gym tonight.]”

The one across from school?]”

Chapter 106 Alice nodded; she needed to clear things up.

Wang Yang stood.“[Let’s go. I have a part–time job at the gym.]” Alice knew he worked part–time to earn money.

They went to the gym. Alice went to the boxing area and saw Wang Yang organizing equipment. She was surprised.

You work here?]”

It was Saw Alice’s [Part–time. I learned some boxing at another gym; the coach asked me to teach.]” He red boxing gloves. [That brand isn’t cheap.

It a popular, sold–out model. Alice looked at the gloves; Jack had given them to her. Her expression was strained.” [Let’s spar.]”

She hadn’t scheduled a session.

Wang Yang helped Alice stretch, then they sparred. He stopped. “[You’re more skilled. How long have you been boxing?]”

“[About two months.]”

“[You’re talented. This isn’t easy; there are many techniques. Your teacher must be professional.]* Alice thought of Jack; he’d been her teacher. Her expression changed.“[Continue.] Her mind was filled with Jack.

Alice was distracted and took a punch.

“[Ouch!]” She fell, dizzy.

“[Captain, are you okay? I’m sorry.] Wang Yang was shocked.

“It’s okay. I wasn’t paying attention.]” It was her fault.

She stood; Wang Yang supported her.“[Rest.]”

“[Stop! What are you doing?]” Jack arrived, seeing Alice being held by a young man. His face darkened. He rushed over.

Alice looked at him, her head still spinning. Before she could explain, Jack punched Wang Yang, who fell against the railing.

Jack grabbed Wang Yang’s shirt, his eyes icy.“[Get lost!]”

Wang Yang wiped his nosebleed.“[Why should I leave?]”

Jack saw the boy’s look and knew he was interested in Alice. He punched him again. Alice stopped him.

“[Jack, stop! Why are you hitting him?]”

Jack turned to Alice.“[He was touching you!]”

“[He wasn’t.]”

“[I saw it!]” Jack’s voice was angry.“[I thought you were ignoring me because I didn’t reply, but it was because of this guy, right?]”

Alice was stunned.“[You think I cheated?] But you’re the one who cheated!”
