Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2456

The final score was out. Leon Batton won the friendly match with a score of eleven-to-zero.

“Looks like you’re pretty good at playing basketball. You should be a professional basketball player,” the coach said.

“Perhaps,” Leon casually replied with a smile.

“Let me know if you’re interested. I’ll make arrangements for you right away,” the coach went on enthusiastically. He wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to recruit a talented player.

“Thanks for the offer, but I’m not interested in sports. I’m even less interested in basketball,” Leon admitted, turning down the offer politely.

“Oh, that’s too bad.” Coach sounded a little deflated to hear that.

The handsome student chuckled without commenting further. He dropped the ball and headed to the bleachers to rest.

As he approached, the audience became excited. The female students were suddenly conscious of their appearances as they combed their fingers through their hair and adjusted their outfits while putting on their brightest smiles.

It was all in vain as Leon only seemed to have eyes for one person.

Hannah Roland looked up with a frown when she heard the commotion erupting around her. Then, she seemed stunned as everything and everyone around her seemed to fade into the background.

Leon was walking toward her.

He wore a green sports t-shirt, which was now damp from the droplets of sweat on his body. He had perfect facial features that made it impossible to look away.

He sank into a seat beside her before she could gather her thoughts.

She hastily jerked her head away before he could catch her staring at him like an idiot.

Her heart raced despite taking a few deep breaths. She felt self-conscious, her face reddening as she began to fidget with her clothes nervously.

Leon smiled ever so briefly when he caught sight of Hannah’s face up close.
