Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76 I Promised You

Charlotte finally looked up and said seriously, "If it hurts, you can scream. I won't laugh at you."

Andrew insisted, "I won't scream."

But the next second -

"Ah -!"

With swift precision, Charlotte reconnected the bone for Andrew, who was writhing in pain.

Standing up, Charlotte advised, "Later, go to the medical office and get some medicine to apply. Avoid water, spicy food, and strenuous exercise. You should recover in two weeks."

Andrew's face turned pale, and he let out a heavy sigh, "Will it affect my basketball playing?"

Charlotte pondered for a moment and said, "No."

Andrew smiled, "Thank you."

He turned to Anthony and said, "I'll go to play later."

Anthony looked at him incredulously, "Are you crazy?"

Charlotte responded ruthlessly, "I'm sorry to inform you that when I said it wouldn't affect your basketball, I meant after you've recovered, not right now."

Andrew forced a smile, "But right now, we..."

Srolanya High School was already in a hopeless situation.

Charlotte also heard many discussions. Since she had just arrived at this school, she didn't have a strong sense of belonging. However, she still felt uncomfortable when hearing those people casually belittling the efforts of these young men.

Cecilia suddenly said, "I remember Nicholas used to play basketball excellently. You guys even wanted him to join the basketball team."

Andrew shook his head and said, "I even offered him the position of captain, but he didn't agree."

Anthony added, "I've asked him many times, but he never responds. It's impossible."

"Nicholas hasn't played basketball for many years," Reagan, who joined the conversation, said sarcastically, "During the beginning of our first year in high school, he played basketball at school and missed seeing his mother for the last time."

"He won't go on the court," continued Reagan.

Eloise sighed, "Oh no, our school will be laughed at by those bastards from Roblia High School for a long time."

"Probably all people in Seyso will laugh at us," Cecilia shrugged and continued, "It's my fault, to be honest."

"But the most crucial thing is..." Eloise said, "The basketball team will probably receive endless criticism, especially since it already attracts so much attention. If we lose this game, our school's reputation might be at stake."

Suddenly, Reagan said, "Charlotte, you have a good relationship with Nicholas, right? You should convince him to play. He'll definitely listen to you."

Her voice was loud enough for everyone around to hear, and instantly, dozens of girls looked at Charlotte with hopeful eyes.

Charlotte was taken aback and involuntarily took a step back.

Reagan smiled and said, "Charlotte, it's a matter of our school's honor. You should talk to Nicholas."

Charlotte said, "But you said that Nicholas refused to play because of his mother..."

Reagan raised an eyebrow, "That's why I want you to go. If you ask him to play, he's sure to agree." She then changed her tone, "Are you purposely hiding and refusing to go because of the posts on the campus forum? Do you want us to lose the game?"

"I... I'm not."

A girl spoke up loudly, "Charlotte, I apologize to you. Please, please go talk to Nicholas! We really can't afford to lose!"

"Yes, Charlotte! I apologize, too! Please go and persuade Nicholas..."
