The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 369

The three girls all breathed a sigh of relief, "So it was Byran Howard's sister who played a prank on us that almost scared us to death!"

Byran stepped forward, afraid that Julius would hurt someone again in his rage. He shielded Ellinor Mendoza behind him. "Julius, you're the one who got scared and almost pissed your pants, and you're saying that I would get scared?"

Julius got up in anger, "Byran, you dare to gang up and bully me!"

Byran stood his ground, "Who started bullying whom? You played your little tricks by paying double the ticket price to bribe the staff here to target us and let you guys have a smooth ride! Julius, if you can't play fair, don't play at all!"

"... I did pay double the ticket price, but the staff didn't cooperate with me, so it doesn't count!" Julius's pride was a bit hurt, so he started making excuses, pointing at the staff led by Ellinor.

"Julius, I just realized that not only are you despicable, but you're also shameless!" Byran frowned in disgust.

"You..." Julius was at a loss for words.

Before the game even started, Ellinor went to the restroom in the hall of this escape room club alone. When she came out, she happened to overhear Julius instructing the front desk to bribe the staff, which felt very unfair to her.

So, after they all went in, she offered the front desk three times the price to let her in as a staff member.

People who can be bribed with money are usually the least reliable. Because as soon as someone offered a higher price, those people would immediately switch sides.

And it was while Byran was looking for clues to pass the game that he received a text message from Ellinor using Theo's number, which read, "Remember to play dead later!"

He didn't understand what it meant at first, but when the nurse cut him and it didn't hurt, he figured it out and went along with it.

...

Coming out of the escape room club, Julius still wasn't willing to give up and quickly caught up with Byran, blocking him and saying, "Byran, I admit you were good in the escape room! If you dare, compete with me in something else!"

Byran looked bored and snorted, "Who would want to compete with a cheater like you? Get out of my way!"

Julius didn't intend to give up, "There's a swimming pool nearby, and everything in the water is transparent. I can't cheat in a physical competition; how about it?"

"Not interested!"

"You can't swim, can you?"

After his moment of triumph in the escape room, Byran was now on cloud nine and totally unaffected by Julius's provocation.

"I'm not competing! Whether I can swim or not is none of your business!"
