Chapter 282 Let Me Teach You How To Play Pool
Lysander hesitated for a moment, then nodded. âHot water is fine. No need for green tea,
âAlright, please wait a moment. Pool players are usually brute, so they have cold water. But for hot water, it might need to be boiled on the spot. Give me a few minutes.â
âSorry for the trouble.â
Zane found himself a task and went toward the bar.
Lysander watched Daphne and Yvonne for a while, the tension between them was palpable, like a raging fire.
Daphne, in particular, didnât hold back. She sank four to five balls in a single turn, causing Yvonne to stamp her foot in frustration..
Lysander laughed lightly at the sight.
âWhat are you laughing at?â
Lysander snapped back to reality. âHave you finished your phone call?â
Adrian nodded slightly. âLynn just called and said that Harry and his mother went to look for Priscilla again. Sheâs a bit worried⦠But donât you worry, Dr. Ziegler is there. He had security clear them out. They didnât even get to see Priscilla, let alone enter the doors of the obstetrics and gynecology department.â
Lysander was slightly relieved. âI was afraid that Dr. Ziegler would not be able to accept seeing Priscilla become so haggard. Now, it seems I should have told him earlier.â
âActually, the timing was just right. You and Daph have already paved the way for the divorce. All Priscilla has to do is follow the process, and itâs only a matter of time before she escapes from he misery. Without what you guys have done, Priscilla would still be entangled by Harry and Helen, unable to free herself. Dr. Ziegler wouldnât be able to be as tough as he is now.â
âThatâs true. Thereâs no need to worry about anything now. We also have a way to reclaim her assets.
âDr. Ziegler, as a father, would have agreed to any conditions proposed by Harry and his mother just to get
a divorce after seeing Priscilla in that state.â Adrian said, âIf I have a daughter in the future, she must never marry a jerk. It doesnât matter whether she is good at studying or not
Lysander chuckled lightly. âYouâre thinking quite far ahead, arenât you? Youâre not even married yet, but youâre already thinking about a daughter? By the way, how is Ms. Sarah? I havenât heard you her recently. Being a star, she must be quite busy, right?â

Adrian, with his arms folded, leaned against the wall shoulder to shoulder with her. He casually remarked, âMmm-hmm, sheâs quite busy indeed.â
âThen, isnât that akin to a long-distance relationship?â

criticize anyone else.â
Lysander laughed a little, but didnât say another word
She could tell that Adrian didnât really like her mentioning his girlfriend. Being someone tactful, she immediately dropped the topic.
âSince we have nothing better to do, let me teach you how to play pool.â
Lysander said, âI really have no foundation at all, and Iâm not lying to you when I say that Iâm bad at sports since I was a child. Even in college, I only passed the eight-hundred-meter fitness test because the teacher went easy on me. Otherwise, I would have failed.â
Adrian straightened his body, picked up two pool cues from the side of the wall, held one in his hand, and handed the other to her. âPlaying pool isnât strenuous, as it mainly relies on the brain. Also, practice makes perfect. Letâs give it a try first.â
Lysander could only take the cue stick and followed Adrian to the edge of the pool table.
On the table, the billiard balls had been neatly arranged into a triangle.
Adrian bent over, making a beautiful break shot. The triangle of balls exploded instantly, scattering all over the pool table.
âYou are a beginner, so you donât need to learn all these rules just yet. Letâs start by practicing hitting the ball.â
âOkay.â
Adrian placed the white ball in front of her. âHit the white ball, aiming to strike the brown one. The goal is to pocket the brown ball. Give it a try.â
Lysander adjusted her angle, chose a relatively good position, and bent down.
âYour fingers need to be slightly bent, acting as a fulcrum for the cue stick. Aim at the center of the white ball⦠No, your hand position is incorrect.â
Adrian put his cue stick against the wall and walked over. He gently adjusted the shape of her fingers. âLike this. Yes. Rest the stick on top.â
