Rowan knew all too well about Jenny's crush on Joe. He wasn't confident that he'd beat Joe if they were placed head to head.
However, he knew that Joe harbored no feelings for Jenny at all.
That being said, the way Joe and Skylar treated Jenny today seemed a little off. Yet, Rowan couldn't put his finger on why this was so.
"Your family won't allow you to be with her," stated Joe after a drag of his cigarette.
Rowan's eyes darkened. He insisted, "I've got to try."
"Jenny isn't as simple and innocent as you think she is," hinted Joe. Rowan froze. He could tell that Joe was giving him a heads-up. Joe had never commented about Jenny in this way in the past.
Rowan's frowned and replied, "Got it. I'll consider our relationship seriously."
…
Ten minutes later, Rowan and Jenny left because she wasn't feeling well. Rowan would bring her to the hospital.
Joe had said he wanted to leave too. However, Skylar stopped him from doing so.
"Let's play a few games," said Skylar.
Her hands itched to pick up a racket as she watched them play from the sidelines. She hadn't had the time to exercise recently. Today would be a great opportunity to get some moves in.
To be honest, one of the reasons she'd fallen for Joe was due to his stellar stamina.
Joe raised an eyebrow and challenged, "Should we play? Aren't you scared I'll bully you?"
