The man took a few steps back due to the force. Naturally, he could not reach the ball, and Vickie took advantage of this as she tried to aim for the best shot. Just as she was about to score, the man behind stopped her with his club. She felt a strong hand on her arm pulling her away, which made her lose yet another opportunity to score.
Vickie was annoyed.
At this point, they both knew that they each had quite a number of dirty tricks up their sleeves. This match was no more child’s play.
Vickie arched her back, her eyes shot daggers as Gregory did the same for defense. She said through clenched teeth, “You will definitely lose today.”
Gregory gave a cold smile. “Are you that confident?”
“Of course!”
As her voice trailed away, she immediately tackled past him from the gap between his armpits in a swift move.
Gregory furrowed his brow. He did not have the time to react when she grabbed his club and pounced vigorously to Gregory’s right side with full agility. Her right hand gave a light sway and set the ball flying with a soft hit using her club before the ball landed perfectly — a hole-in-one.
Massimo cheered and clapped his hands hysterically.
“Amazing game! Great job Vick!”
He was so exhilarated that he unconsciously called her the way he used to.
However, both Gregory and Vickie did not look bothered by that. Gregory wiped his sweat as he admitted his defeat. He said, “I lost.”
Vickie raised an eyebrow, looking pleased. “What about our bet?”
Gregory kept his word. So he asked, “What do you want?”
This question put Vickie off course.
To get Gregory to do her a favor? Honestly, she had not thought of what she wanted him to do yet.
Gregory grinned as he saw her hesitation.
“There’s no rush, take your time. Our promise will be valid until the day ends.”
With that, he turned around and walked towards the rest area.
Yuliana had already been waiting there. The match earlier on had made her anxious as she thought Gregory would win, but she did not expect Vickie to win instead.
The thought of this made her unsatisfied. She waited for Gregory to come closer before she passed him an iced drink and whined, “I can’t believe she didn’t let you win, Gregory. She should know her place. Who does she think she is?”
Upon hearing this, Gregory paused his hand midair.
He bore into her eyes and said coldly, “What makes you think that you can say that about her?”
Yuliana was shocked.
The next second, Gregory drew his hand back. He ordered the waiter in a curt voice, “Get me a new cup of iced water.”
“Yes.”
The waiter hurried off, but Yuliana was still shocked. She quickly brought the glass of water to him again and explained, “Gregory, I had this specifically made for you…”
He did not wait for her to finish before he broke her off in the middle of the sentence.
“Don’t you ever make assumptions and get me sugary drinks again! I don’t need you to serve me anything!”
He picked up his club and walked to the center of the field again after he said this.
Yuliana was completely baffled.
The man’s coldness towards her left a strong sense of humiliation that ignited the bottom of her heart.
It was especially since the commotion gained attention from the onlookers. A part of them even knew about Gregory and Vickie’s stormy relationship. She could feel her face burn as her heart filled with deep hatred and abomination.
It was all because of that b*tch!
Her hatred scorched deep as she glared at Gregory. Taking big steps, she marched towards them in her high heels.
Since Vickie won the game, she was in a better mood than she had been in the morning.
