She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 1223

Averin Municipal Gymnasium.

Today, the Royce Group and the Lockridge Group had booked the entire venue.

Back at the restaurant, Sam Harrison had only mentioned it casually, but Dominic Hale had agreed without hesitation.

Just like that, an impromptu friendly basketball match was set between the two corporate giants.

Everyone present had changed into sportswear and basketball shoes.

Though they were all amateurs, the intense atmosphere rivaled that of a professional arena.

Naturally, Sam was the only professional basketball player on the court.

"That guy... is he about my height?"

Sam couldn't help but marvel.

He had assumed he'd be the tallest one here.

He hadn't expected someone else to match his stature, especially a non-player.

Daphne Morrell followed his gaze and, unsurprisingly, spotted Preston Whitmore.

Preston had uncharacteristically changed into athletic wear.

Though, predictably, it was entirely black.

"Honestly... he's so weird! Why is he wearing gloves to play basketball?"

Seeing Sam pointing at Preston's hands, Daphne shook her head in bewilderment.

She was well aware of Preston's habit of constantly wearing White Gloves.

Even though she didn't see him very often.

Whenever she did, those pristine White Gloves were a permanent fixture.

She had once asked Melanie Royce about it in passing, but Melanie had claimed ignorance as well.

Melanie had mentioned that even when she tried to probe indirectly, Preston would skillfully dodge the question.

It was obvious he didn't want to talk about it.

In Daphne's eyes, the gloves clearly held some profound or unspeakable significance to him.

Since Melanie didn't press the issue, she wouldn't either.
