Chuck had no intention of defending himself. He would prove them wrong in no time!
"I will definitely be the champion of this competition!" Chuck thought to himself.
By winning this competition, he could request Miss Scarlett to be his coach!
"Look, Chuck could not even say a word. I knew he was just bragging. He even said that he will win the first place. Alas! I've finally witnessed how shameless a person could be!" Tessa said with a smile.
"I know right!"
The girls were looking down on Chuck.
Chuck turned his head and looked at Tessa. At that instant, Tessa was stupefied, and the mocking smile on her face diminished.
"What's wrong, Tessa?"
"It-it's nothing, but why do I suddenly feel that Chuck's back looked somewhat familiar? It feels like I've seen it somewhere. He gave me an impression of..." Tessa said.
"What impression?"
"I don't know. When he looked back just now, I just felt like I've seen the same scene somewhere. It gave me a sense of... yes, a sense of security!" Tessa finally knew how to describe it in words.
"No way, Tessa. You're saying that Chuck gave you a sense of security? What are you talking about?"
"I've never felt this on him before. When Coach was in danger yesterday, all of us saw him running away in fear. How can you get a sense of security in this kind of person?" one of the girls said.
Tessa thought about it for a while and said, "Well, I could be wrong! That’s right, he could not even compare to us and he only knows how to brag. I really think that I’m wrong. Alas! However, when he turned back and looked at me just now, I did feel that it was him who saved me from the bear attack yesterday..."
Tessa couldn't believe the words she had just said. She laughed at herself and thought that she must be crazy!
"Haha, Tessa, I know you're thinking about that person a lot, but please don't put your fantasies on Chuck!"
"If Chuck had really saved you, then why didn't he save Coach? She was also surrounded by the bears, but he chose to escape!"
"I don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking it."
"It must be!" "It's probably a false intuition. Let's not think about it anymore."
"Alright."
Tessa and the others laughed as they followed Liliana and Gaige to the competition venue.
Tessa did not look at Chuck anymore. She thought she must have gone crazy. Why did she think Chuck was the one who saved her? That was impossible!
Was she blind?
The competition venue was crowded, like how it was during orientation.
There were about two hundred people there!
There were more men, compared to women.
Judging from the situation, it seemed like the competition might not end until afternoon!
Chuck wasn't sure if the competition was like what he had imagined.
