Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1045

Soon afterwards, Scarlette was back. She put the pair of black sneakers on the floor. Santiago waved at Raeleigh.

"Come here."

Raeleigh had no idea what he was up to. When she came closer, Santiago held onto her shoulder as he put on his sneakers. He treated Raeleigh as if she were mere railings in order to keep his balance.

Raeleigh gave him a grumpy look. She looked unusually annoyed.

After putting on his shoes, Santiago did some warm up exercises. Then, he made his way to the basketball court. Raeleigh and Scarlette tagged along. There was quite a commotion when they reached the court. Everyone was cheering for Santiago. A sea of onlooking crowds could be seen encircling the court at that moment.

"Take a seat," Santiago said as he motioned Raeleigh and Scarlette to head to the seating area. The girls glanced around the court. Then, they made their way to the seating area.

Quite a number of players could be seen standing at the court by then. Raeleigh noticed that the members of the two opposing teams were already there to get ready for the match. One team was clad in black, while the other was clad in red. As both teams exuded the same level of commanding presence, she had no idea how the match would play out.

Raeleigh looked at the design blueprint on her cell phone. She reckoned no further improvement was required. However, Jepherson insisted that she had it reviewed once again, especially the interior section of the car and the color palette. He told her that reviews were necessary, unless she was absolutely certain that her designs were impeccable.

Raeleigh heeded his advice. She had been scrutinizing the blueprint.

Raeleigh had an unusual fault in her character. She possessed a tendency to think that her designs are flawless. However, she could be rather critical when it came to reviewing other designers' works.

This had been bothering her for quite some time. However, she did not make a fuss about it.

She believed that nothing was perfect. She realized that her inability to spot flaws in her own designs could be indicative of her own incompetence. She believed that great designers should instantaneously be able to tell which parts of their work needed improvement.

In contrast, average designers tended to nitpick other designers' works instead of identifying the flaws in their own designs.

While Raeleigh was looking at her cell phone, Scarlette rubbed her hands excitedly in anticipation of the match. She was so exuberant that she felt like dashing into the court and being part of the match.

Raeleigh lowered her head and said, "This is a basketball match, not a wrestling match. Why are you so charged up?"

"I don’t think you'd ever get it," Scarlette said as she waved her off. She did not bother to explain as she reckoned that Raeleigh was not on the same wavelength anyway.

Raeleigh then continued looking at her phone while Scarlette kept cheering. Soon afterwards, the match started. Raeleigh raised her head and watched intently as one player grabbed the basketball and attempted to dribble the ball and score. As Santiago snuck a glance at them, Raeleigh raised her hand and made a gesture to him. Bewildered, Santiago flashed a smile. Then, he turned around and looked at the court as the opposing team player attempted to shoot.

Raeleigh kept her cell phone and directed her gaze towards Santiago. Whenever Santiago looked at her, she made the same gesture to him.

Puzzled, Scarlette asked, "That gesture, what does it mean?"

"Keep fighting!"

"I thought it meant, 'you can do it',"Scarlette said. She made a similar gesture to Raeleigh, who then rolled her eyes at her and said, "Are you sure about that?"
