EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339 Such A Big Bet?

When Elijah and Antonio found them, Suny and Austin had finished running two laps.

"Long time no see, guys!" Suny glanced at Elijah and Antonio.

"Long time no see." Antonio nodded.

"Yeah, Suny. You look prettier!"

Elijah felt someone staring at him after he said that.

He turned his head and found Austin was staring at him coldly.

"Don't get me wrong, Austin. I meant nothing else." He smiled awkwardly.

Austin didn't bother to argue with him. He then nodded at Antonio.

Elijah liked to come along for the ride. Seeing someone racing not far away, he spoke first before Suny could utter a word, "Are you good at riding, Suny?"

He thought of what had happened last night and he didn't know how to ask for favors from her. Then it suddenly dawned on him that he could solve his problem with Shirley easily if he could make a bet and win the race today.

Elijah thought himself clever enough to come up with such a brilliant idea.

And, he thought he was pretty good at riding. He firmly believed he could defeat Suny on the racecourse, though he couldn't win on the golf course.

Suny didn't expect that Elijah would invite her for a race first. She had something in mind, actually. The reason why she wanted Elijah to come over today was that she wanted to bring something up to Elijah. But it was a bit difficult for her to speak it out abruptly in case Elijah would accuse her of daylight robbery. So, she wanted to rise to the challenge.

Now that Elijah had invited her, she just accepted it happily, "I am OK at riding. But I've been on the horseback only two times. You must be better at it!"

Elijah heard it and got cheered, "Are you being modest? How about a race?"

In fact, after hanging out with Suny a few times, Antonio and the others knew that Suny was an expert in playing dumb and weak.

Anyone who wasn't a fool could understand that Suny was being modest by saying like that Apparently. Elijah was out of his mind, or he was just too stupid.

Antonio was trying to remind him of it. But he just gave up when he heard what Elijah said.

He was taken advantage of by Suny and suffered losses last time. Now he had just dug his own grave. Who else to be blamed except himself?

"How do you like to race?" Suny smiled.

"Here! You can see the race tracks over there, right? We'll go there later. Austin and Antonio will be the judges. We go there and come back to the starting line. OK?"

It was true that people could have horse races on the racecourse. And, they had set some obstacles to increase the difficulties.

Surely, the obstacles were short and anyone who had ever learned to ride could jump over them if he didn't chicken out.

Suny glanced at Austin and she felt she couldn't bear it to hurt Elijah again. But Elijah thought she was asking for advice from Austin, "It's just a horse race! You'll agree, right?"

Austin looked at Elijah lightly and said, "I didn't say no."

"Let's go over there, then." Suny tried hard not to laugh out loud.

"Hey, wait! We are having a horse race. It's fun to make a bet, right?"

Suny looked at Elijah and smiled, "You're right. What do you think we should bet on?"

"Let's do it like this. If I lose, I will do one thing for you. And if you lose, you'll do one thing for me."

Suny had guessed what was in Elijah's mind. In fact, she didn't mind going easy on Shirley this time. Anyway, she would seek death for herself soon.

"Ok."

Suny raised her eyebrows and winked cunningly at Austin.

Austin stared at her deeply and he didn't feel like helping Elijah at all.

Antonio had winked and implied him aside. But Elijah told them to go to the other side of the racecourse happily and proudly.

They went to the other side of the race track on the horses. Suny stopped and looked at Elijah, who had caught up, "Two out of three, Elijah?"

Elijah got nervous when he heard what Suny said. He remembered how he got ripped off by Suny last time and became very alert instantly, "No. I am a bit too tired today. Let's have one game only."

"You are really weak!" Antonio said coldly beside him.

"Stop talking bullshit, dude! I was tired because I worked overtime and stayed up late last night."

"I see." Suny smiled naughtily.
