She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 1224

Melanie had confirmed it with him three separate times, but Everett's answer remained unchanged—

"I want to play."

Seeing his determination, she didn't argue further.

And just like that, their team roster was finalized.

On the Lockridge Group's side, Dominic, Gavin Lockridge, and Aria Royce were guaranteed starters.

Unlike Gavin, who was just there for the ride, the other two looked pumped and ready to dominate.

In Dominic's eyes, this match was the perfect opportunity—

A chance to show off his charm and superiority to Melanie.

Dominic prided himself on his basketball skills.

While he couldn't compete with a pro like Sam, he was certain he could crush Preston.

Sure, Preston was tall, but Dominic doubted he could actually play.

Why?

Because he had never seen anyone ball out while wearing gloves.

So today, Dominic was going to put on a show and let Melanie witness his true masculine prowess.

At the same time, Aria was holding back a fierce determination of her own.

Just as Dominic's attention was glued to Melanie, Aria couldn't tear her gaze away from Preston.

He was undeniably gorgeous.

It wasn't just his sharp features or perfect bone structure.

It was his aura.

An aura that made her heart race.

Even though his family was ruined, leaving him to work under the Royce Group's roof.

That commanding presence hadn't diminished one bit.

To Aria, Preston was the only man truly worthy of her.

So, she had to win this game no matter what.

She was going to beat Melanie right in front of him.

Whether in business or on the court, she intended to crush her half-sister completely.
