When the GF9 Test Subject Became His Obsession novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 Victory Belongs to Building B

What an awkward moment.

His injured ankle had thrown off the entire shooting rhythm.

Thanos could clearly feel Serena’s disdain.

“Thanos, catch!”

Wesley snagged the ball and passed it back, Patrick right on his heels.

At the last split second, Thanos gritted his teeth, leapt, and dodged Patrick’s block. The ball hit the backboard, spun around the rim, and dropped in.

Thanos redeemed himself.

Indigo, still swallowing the humiliation of being tricked by Serena, muttered, “Help Thanos rack up points first.”

Thanos was moved nearly to tears. “You’re a true friend!”

Patrick tried to turn the tide, but any time Serena got the ball, the three state basketball players would swarm her-only to be toyed with until they were dizzy.

In the final ten minutes, Thanos’s score soared past twenty points. Serena glanced at the scoreboard on the other court, then passed the ball to Solstice.

Solstice almost cried with joy-Serena was finally letting him shoot!

The state basketball trio realized the danger too late.

In the final play, Serena dribbled like the wind. Patrick lunged to block her, leapt, and went for the dunk-only for the ball to veer off course,

“Watch out!”

The ball hurtled toward Patrick’s face, but just before impact, a hand shot out and slapped it away.

Patrick hit the ground, face pale.

He had seen it-that ball had been spinning. This wasn’t brute force; it was precision. Like a high-speed bullet piercing a tank, if that shot had actually hit him, his face might have been done for.

The final whistle blew.

Score: 34-15. Thanos had twenty points, Solstice fourteen, while Jeremy-the athletic department’s protected ace-had just twelve across two games.

The two scholarship consideration spots fell squarely into Building B’s hands.

The entire Building B crowd erupted. “We won!”

Zachary didn’t cheer, but his fists clenched tightly to keep himself composed. Pride shone in his eyes. This was his sister. Even if she was one who’d grown up apart from him, he couldn’t stop himself from feeling proud.

Natalie and the others went pale with shock, as if they’d been dragged back into the same fear the Devil once ruled them with.

Serena cast a cold glance at the seated Patrick, then turned and left the court.

“Patrick!” The athletic department members rushed over.

Some offered her water, others handed her tissues, and still others showered her with praise until it was almost embarrassing.

Rowan, hurrying toward her with a water bottle, stopped short at the sight. Her grip on the bottle tightened.

For a moment, she felt lost.

Her beautiful deskmate seemed so popular now-like she didn’t need her anymore. The days when they’d only had each other suddenly felt far away.

“Move.” Serena’s voice wasn’t loud, but no one dared disobey, automatically parting to make way.

She walked straight up to Rowan. “Where’s my water?”

Snapping out of it, Rowan quickly twisted the cap and handed it to her, watching her drink with a flicker of joy.

Her deskmate only drank water from her.

From under the hoop, Indigo glanced their way, and even Solstice, still lying on the floor, turned his head to look.

After the game, Serena’s cheeks were faintly flushed. Sweat had left her skin looking dewy, softening her usual frostiness.

Maybe it was this scene that made Solstice mistake her for a normal person.

He got up and walked over,

“No need to thank me. Just pay me.”
