Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 87

"Where to, President Raines?" the driver asked after Sydney got in the car.

Sydney put her crutches to the side. "Downtown Stadium."

"Aye," the driver replied and started the car.

Skylight Corporation was about an hour's drive from the stadium.

However, it was close to the airport and a place notorious for its traffic jam in Port City.

At this time, Sydney was stuck on the road.

Time ticked by the second as Sydney was stuck in the jam, and it was already 4 pm.

In the stadium, Jayden was standing on the court warming up in his number eight black jersey. He looked toward the audience on their side as he warmed up.

When he saw that there was no one in the two seats that he had reserved, his youthful face was written with disappointment and gloom.

What happened to them?

Neither of them came!

"Hey, Jay, what are you doing?" At this time, a teammate came over and tapped Julien's shoulder.

Julien shook his head and responded somewhat sullenly, "I’m fine."

"If you're fine, then hurry up and go over. The coach wants us to gather." The teammate finished speaking, withdrew his hand, and walked toward the players' rest area.

Jayden took another glance at the audience before he followed.

Beep!

After a whistle, the players officially lined up. The game began after players from both sides shook hands with each other.

As the small forward and ace of the team, Jayden got the ball grabbed by the center and then started to run.

He was fast and avoided the opponent's block, easily bringing the ball inside the free-throw line. Then, he took a jump and tossed it.

The ball went in!

Loud cheers erupted from the audience.

Jayden and his teammates high-fived happily.

"That was amazing, Jay. You started with a bang."

"Yep, if we keep playing like this, we’ll definitely win!"

"Way to go, Jay!"

His teammates patted Jayden's shoulders and encouraged him.

While Jayden nodded in response, he looked toward the audience again. The two seats were still empty.

For a moment, Jayden's eyes grew a little red, and his heart felt even more aggrieved.

He went through so much effort to get two tickets with perfect seats, hoping that they would come to watch him play. However, neither of them came!

To think he had been looking forward to it so much!

Jayden raised his arm to wipe his eyes and returned to his position with a slight sulk, waiting to steal the ball.

Soon, his teammates passed the ball to him again. He dribbled it and got ready to attack.

However, the other team already knew that he was not easy to deal with. When he attacked, three players went up to defend together, making it impossible for him to break free.

Jayden’s heart sank when he saw the three players marking him. He knew that he was being targeted.

This game would not be easy!

At 4:30 pm, Sydney finally arrived at the stadium.

"I'll wait for you in the car, President Raines," the driver said after helping Sydney out of the car.

"Okay." Sydney nodded and slowly walked toward the entrance of the stadium with her crutches.

When she walked into the stadium, she heard sighs coming from the audience.

Sydney looked toward the audience and saw the disappointed faces of the spectators. She could not help but wonder what was happening.

It was not until she looked at the scoreboard in the air that she understood why the audience was disappointed.

The score of the national team versus the Kingthene team was 20-40.

They were twenty points behind Kingthene.

Moreover, this was the home field, so the majority of the audience was Medianans. How could they not be disappointed when they saw the national team was so many points behind Kingthene's team?
