Chapter 6
The Greatest Man Alive
Hannah immediately stopped Nathan when he was about to leave.
âWhat are you doing? Natalie brought you out to meet her friends, and youâre leaving without saying goodbye?â Hannah said.
âI guess he probably saw Mr. Lukeâs skills and felt ashamed.â Mr. Mandy laughed.
Then he said to Natalie, âNatalie, fencing is a noble sport. But he is a bumpkin, so he doesnât know how to play. Thus, it is understandable if he wants to leave in advance.â
Natalie said coldly, âNathan, donât think yourself too important. I brought you here, and you dare to embarrass me? How would my dad think of you if I told him?â
Luke sorted out his protective gear and said lightly, âForget it, Natalie. A bumpkin will never become a noble. Fencing is not suitable for him, so just let him go to the basketball court outside.â
Nathan twitched his mouth, shook his head, and said, âIâm not interested in this kind of fancy sport.
Swords are for killing people, not for playing.â
Mr. Mandy jeered Nathan and said, âHow dare you judge fencing? I think you are ranting on purpose because you donât know how to fence at all.â
âIf you think you can do it, donât sneak away like a coward and practice with Mr. Luke!â
Luke shook his head and said, âForget it, donât force him. Iâm afraid that I might hurt him.â
Nathan also knew that if he didnât act, these guys would never let him go. And he wouldnât know how to get out of this matter if Hector knew about it.
Nathan frowned and said, âOkay, Iâll be gentle.â
âSo ridiculous! Have you ever played fencing before, you bumpkin? Youâre so arrogant!â Hannah was the first to laugh.
Luke narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, âSince you want to try, Iâll play with you.â
Nathan wanted to get it done as soon as possible so he wouldnât need to deal with Jade again. He picked up a sword.
âPut on the protective gear, Iâm afraid I might cripple you,â Luke said.
âItâs not necessary. Letâs end this quickly.â Nathan weighed the toy-like sword with his hand and shook his head.
Luke felt rather annoyed. âOkay, letâs get started!â
He stepped away and pointed his sword at Nathan. Then, he breathed deeply, and the sword in his hand was as steady as a column. A terrifying pressure suddenly appeared around him.
Nathan stood leisurely without even raising his sword. Clearly, people could see he didnât know how to fence.
âLooking at the way he stands and holds the sword, you can tell that he is a layman. Heâs so pretentious and didnât even wear protective gear. Iâm afraid Mr. Luke might stab his eyes with one strike!â Mr. Mandy said with a sneer.
Natalie saw it and became hesitated.
Hannah seemed to see her softening and immediately said, âNatalie, you canât hesitate! We have to let him know the difference between him and us. Otherwise, he might never agree to divorce!â
âLuke knows what heâs doing and wonât hurt Nathan badly. Donât worryâ¦â
Natalie nodded slightly.
âStart!â
Luke took a stride and raised his sword to stab Nathanâs upper body.
Mr. Mandy praised, âLook at Mr. Lukeâs attack. His movement is clean and sharp, without any fanciness, which is as good as a professional athleteâs!â
Lukeâs strike was sudden, and his movement was direct and clean. Even a professional athlete couldnât do it better.
Nathanâs slack stance remained unchanged. He moved when Lukeâs sword was about to stab into his body.
âThis bumpkin will regret that he didnât wear protective gearâ¦â Mr. Mandy grinned.
Before he finished speaking, Nathanâs wrist flicked and blocked Lukeâs sword, and then he swung the sword downwards as if swatting a fly.
âOuch!â
Luke suffered heavily from Nathanâs move, which was not elegant at all. He only felt a pain in his wrist, and the sword in his hand was knocked off.
Everyoneâs expressions instantly froze, looking at each other in disbelief.
Luke was the third runner-up in the competition, and his level was close to that of a professional athlete, but Nathan defeated him!
âIâm leaving if thereâs nothing else. Donât ask me to play such a boring sport again.â Nathan dropped the sword and turned to leave-
Hannah said angrily, âImpossible! You must have used some trick to win Mr. Luke by chance!â
Mr. Mandy came back to his senses. âThat must be it. You must stay and apologize to Mr. Luke!â
âNonsenseâ¦â Nathan snorted coldly and didnât bother to pay attention to these boring guys, he shook his hand and walked away.
Luke held his wrist in pain. Nathan could have broken his wrist if he hadnât had gloves and protective gear.
Just then, Jade happened to see Nathan leaving the club and Natalie and the others. She put down the well-made bow and walked slowly toward them.
Negino was stunned for a while. He didnât seem to have offended Jade, but why did she walk away without saying anything?
He quickly followed behind her..
Negino then saw Nathan walking out of the club and felt confused.
Why does he look like Mr. Nathan?
âHoly sh*t! General Perkins is walking towards us!â
They were all dumbfounded when they saw Jade approaching them, and their bodies couldnât help trembling.
Jade was not only beautiful but also very brave. She was an outstanding heroine who had achieved great things that countless men couldnât do. Since she became well-known, people would praise her with all the vocabulary they could use to compliment a woman.
No man didnât admire a woman like Jade. Likewise, no woman didnât desire to become someone like her.
Luke, Hannah, and the others who were still aloof just now couldnât help shrinking their necks at this moment.
Jadeâs footsteps became louder, and everyone felt their heartbeat seemed to be integrated with this sound. The aura of this woman is too stunning!
