How the Ice King Became my Doting Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 282

It was only the first day, and the place was already swarming with people. Maddie could practically see dollar signs waving at her.

Suddenly, there was a knock on her table. Looking up, Maddie saw it was Lexie, gazing at her with a goofy expression, clueless about what Lexie might want.

Seeing Maddie's dopey look, Lexie felt a surge of irritation and, hopping from one foot to the other, exclaimed, "Maddie, quit staring at me like a deer caught in headlights. Didn't you promise we'd have a go at each other? I'm here to take you up on that. Let's head to the back lawn of the dorm."

Maddie's look was so innocent, Lexie feared she might not be able to go through with it. Only then did Maddie remember her prior commitment to Lexie.

She apologetically put down her pen and said, "Sorry, totally slipped my mind. You're here for that brawl, right? Sure, let's get going."

"Now?" Lexie raised an eyebrow.

Maddie checked the time and nodded, "Yeah, now. The gates aren't closed yet. We'll have time to get back after."

"Maddie, are you provoking me? Just so you know, I only lost last time because I was caught off guard. I won't be pulling any punches this time."

"Alright, alright."

"Maddie!"

"Huh?"

Lexie felt like she had hit rock bottom. Never in her life had she met someone like Maddie. She was there to pick a fight, not to be cute.

In the dead of night, Lexie and Maddie made their way to the back lawn of the dorm. By now, it was late, and the lawn was deserted.

Lexie glared at Maddie, "Last time, the dorm room was too cramped for me to move properly. Out here, you better watch out."
