The others could understand that and agreed to stop playing.
“Would you like to stay here in the future?” Alex asked.
He knew Leon Batton had a place to stay back home, but he had to ask anyway.
“I’m not sure yet,” the teenager answered with a smile.
For him, it would have been better if he stayed at home while he still had to go to school.
However, he wasn’t against the idea of staying over during weekends if training sessions lasted much longer in the evenings.
“In that case, I’ll take you to your room first,” Alex said before leading the group to a room they had prepared in advance.
The room had a luxurious design that hinted at European royalty.
A gentle breeze blew in through the French windows. The moist sea breeze had a salty tinge, and Leon detected the taste when it gently brushed against the loose strand of hair on his forehead.
Leon closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of the breeze caressing comfortingly against his face.
“Of course, your room is the best room in the entire villa.” Right then, the ADC in the team, Jackey, walked over.
Although he sounded envious, he wasn’t jealous or resentful at all.
“Thank you for arranging all this for me,” Leon said as he addressed his coach, Alex while wearing a grateful look in his eyes.
“Okay, I better head home. I’ll come over and train with everybody tomorrow night at the same time,” he added.
Jackey nodded in acknowledgement. “Okay, sure. We’ll be waiting.”
Leon nodded slightly and walked out of the room with Alex and Jackey following closely behind.
The other teammates were chatting in the living room on the first floor, but they promptly stood up to show him out when they saw him.
