Chapter 252
Before they knew it, the weekend had arrived.
Flora and Connor headed out together to watch Dane’s basketball game. Kaylee had also managed to sneak out to join them, even though her mom had strictly forbidden it with finals just around the corner. Ever since she started hanging out with Flora, she had become a lot bolder. She would never have dared to do this before.
Dane and Alex lit up when they saw Flora and the crew, and they all went inside the gym together.
“Well, if it isn’t Dane,” an obnoxious voice called out.”
A group of guys in basketball jerseys swaggered over, looking just as cocky as they did in the last game.
Dane’s expression turned icy.
These were the players from Cornett High School. They had narrowly lost to managed to win the next few games to make it to the playoffs.

“You guys made it to the playoffs? Pfft, I’d suggest you drop out now. If you face us again and get destroyed, it’s gonna be pretty embarrassing, don’t you think?”
The guy’s eyes flicked over to Flora and Kaylee, and he let out a low whistle. “Oh, and you’ve got some girls here too. Looks like you’re doing pretty well at Westbrook High, huh? Cute chicks.”
“Watch your mouth, Jack!” Dane snapped.
Jack just smirked, looking completely unfazed. “My mouth’s always like this. So, which one of these girls have you been with? Share the fun, will ya?”
“Jack!” Dane roared, ready to swing at him.
Flora quickly grabbed his arm. “Don’t do it!”
There was a referee watching from the sidelines. Even though Flora didn’t know much about basketball, she knew that fighting before the game could get Dane disqualified. It was clear Jack was trying to provoke him on purpose.
Jack raised an eyebrow and then turned his attention to Flora. He could see Dane cared about her.
He reached out to touch her face. “Quite protective, huh? How about you have some fun with me–Ah!!”
Jack screamed like a banshee. “It hurts! Let go of me! Let go!”
Connor stood there, his face cold as ice. He had one hand in his pocket while the other twisted Jack’s fingers down. The rest of Jack’s team looked too scared to even move.
“You guys go in and get ready,” Connor said to Dane.
Dane nodded eagerly, throwing a smug look at Jack before leading Alex and the rest of the team into the arena.
