Chapter 1326
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
He looked at the âchiefâ, who was fast asleep.
Everyone else in the dorm was asleep.
Sean stepped out of bed, and carefully walked down the metal stairs.
All was silent.
Seanâs feet finally touched the ground.
He walked on tiptoes to the bed of Leonard Mason, whom everyone saw as the chief of the dorm, and secretly pulled out a small packet of pills from above his pillow.
The pills inside were black.
Sean put it to his nose, and took a whiff. It smelled surprisingly sweet and refreshing, unlike the bitterness that he had in mind.
Each time he saw people in the dorm eat the pills, they would furrow their brows.
No matter what the pillâs ingredients may be, Sean was convinced that whoever ate them would become stronger and more powerful during their training.
Tomorrow was the start of a new match.
He wanted to try and see if the pill really had such an effect.
Thus, he chose to seize the chance in the middle of the night while everyone was asleep After that, he tiptoed back to his bed, finally ready to sleep in peace.
The next morning, before he had the chance to open his eyes, a huge hand hauled him out of bed and flung him to the ground. âHey, nepotism boy!â
Ever since Leonard saw Sean with Oliver at the hotel entrance, he had been calling Sean that.
Bam!
Sean fell to the floor.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Leonard glared at him, wide-eyed. âWhere are the pills?!â
Seanâs bottom hurt. He rubbed his tailbone, his face crumpled with pain as he yelled furiously, âWhat pills? Why did you throw me off my bed?â
With that, he scrambled back up on his feet and glared back at Leonard.
Seeing that, Leonard suddenly felt worried. Wasnât this guy the one who took the pills? Aside from Sean, he didnât find anyone else in the dorm suspicious.
Seanâs fearless expression made Leonard think twice. Could this midget speak so self-righteously if he really took the pills? Normally, he would be frightened out of his wits after being flung out of bed.
Yet, he was talking back so furiously.
Leonard studied Sean.
Whether Sean took the pills or not, Leonard couldnât be bothered to apologize to him. After all, he was no match for Leonard. He wasnât worth the thought.
He was just a midget who got in here through nepotism. He would probably hang in for one month at the most, and would soon leave.
Leonard ignored Sean. Not bothered to get an explanation from Sean, he left.
Meanwhile, Seanâs hand was sweating from panic. No one saw his trembling hands that he hid behind his back. Thankfully, he managed to stand his ground.
Just like Daddy.
Recalling how Julian looked when he negotiated business helped Sean imitate him. Honestly, he didnât expect to be able to fool Leonard.
After Leonard left, Sean sighed in relief.
His eyes gleam with a sly confidenceâsomething that had never happened before. He wanted to see if Leonard could still come out on top in all the matches!
Todayâs match revolved around archery.
This sport was no longer practically relevant in todayâs society.
Policemen used guns to subdue bad people, accountants used computers for managing numbers, while soldiers used various high technology on the battlefield.
Archery, on the other hand, put oneâs balance and focus to the test. It was also a test of oneâs strength and stamina, especially in the use of arms.
