Chapter 236 Throw the Game
Get Boa
The first day of the competition had come to an end, and sure enough, Nathaniel had won the championship.
in Group B.
Nathaniel went to the study room to work as soon as he returned to his residency. He didn’t have time to think about anything else. He just asked for the video of today’s team competition and watched it carefully.
There was a competition tomorrow, and maybe Xipil would show up then. Although Nathaniel’s team got a beautiful victory today, it was not very likely that they would win tomorrow if they ran into Xipil.
Nathaniel wanted to recruit Xipil to his side, but before that, he had to at least show Xipil what he got.
Moreover, even if Xipil didn’t show up tomorrow, he needed his team to show their best.
It was such a huge and important competition, even if Xipil didn’t participate, he would definitely be paying
attention to it.
Thinking of this, Nathaniel focused on watching the video recording of today’s competition.
Not long later, Alfred knocked on the door and came in.
With the iPad in his hand, he walked carefully to Nathaniel’s side.
“Mr. Webster, the video of yesterday’s competition was released. Yesterday’s winner of Group A was…”
Alfred hesitated for a long time, thinking about whether he should show Nathaniel the video. After thinking.
for a while, he stopped his moves and just said slowly, The winner was the team representing the Longfellow
Group.”
Nathaniel’s mind went blank for a second, and his hands stopped moving.
He slowly turned to Alfred, glancing at the iPad in Alfred’s hand. His voice was cold and calm. “Who’s gonna
be their next opponent?”
“Nigel’s team.”
When he heard this, the astonishment on Nathaniel’s face faded, leaving only a sneer.
“It seems that Nigel’s team is only at the average level. Although the four people from Janet’s team are
famous, they are not that strong,” Nathaniel sneered.
Alfred looked embarrassed. “In fact, Ms. Longfellow replaced one of the members of her team yesterday.”
Nathaniel suddenly looked at Alfred, feeling a little annoyed. “What?”
Alfred immediately said, “Ms. Longfellow personally fought the game, and Nigel also led the team himself. In the end, Ms. Longfellow won.” Then he clicked on the iPad. “I have got their competition video. Mr. Webster, do you want to take a look?”
To tell the truth, Alfred was really shocked when he saw the video.
Although he was an amateur, he could still tell how capable Janet was from her operations.
Nathaniel said coldly, “No need.”
Nonetheless, Nigel was the champion last year. Nathaniel thought that Janet wouldn’t beat Nigel even if she had practiced a bit before the game.
He didn’t expect that Janet actually knew about the hacking industry.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have decided to go on the stage.
She might be very awkward.
Nathaniel thought that Nigel threw the game.
Nathaniel tapped the desk with his slender index finger and his handsome face was emotionless.
He thought, they really have feelings for each other, huh?
The more Nathaniel thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Then his eyes landed on the iPad in
Alfred’s hand.
He really wanted to see how Nigel managed to let Janet win the game.
Just as he was about to ask for the video, his phone suddenly rang..
It was Nathaniel’s private phone, so it seldom rang. Only his family would call this number.
When he looked at the screen, Nathaniel’s expression changed.
The caller’s name was shown on the screen.
It was Anastasia.
For some reason, Nathaniel felt a little irritated.
He held back his impatience and answered the phone.
“Nathaniel?” Anastasia’s soft voice came from the other side of the phone. Nathaniel’s bad mood faded a little, but he was still indifferent. He replied casually, “What’s wrong?”
“No, nothing… I just want to ask you how the competition is going on over there. I don’t know when you will come back. You are not here in the company. I can’t talk to you about many work things because I’m afraid
that I’ll disturb you,” Anastasia said.
Her tone was soft and affectionate,
However, Nathaniel felt nothing. He was shocked to find that he had no interest in Anastasia now.
In fact, Anastasia sent him some messages these days. Although she always used work as an excuse to
start the conversation, Nathaniel didn’t want to reply.
All he was thinking about was only Nigel and Janet whoved together.
That was all on his mind.
Nathaniel’s moves on the finger paused slightly, and he said faintly, “The competition goes well.”
There was a bit of hesitation in Anastasia’s tone, and she tried her best to ask without leaving a trace, “I heard that Ms. Longfellow also went there. Is she also participating in the competition?”
