A thin and sarcastic smile appeared on his lips. “How considerate of you.”
Yuliana did not see his expression as she lowered her gaze and said to him softly, “I like you, so of course, I’d be considerate of you.”
Gregory suddenly felt nauseated and irritated for some unknown reason, so he did not bother to spare her another look before he walked forward.
Sensing that he had left, Yuliana was startled. Then, the astonishment was replaced by an indescribable sense of elation and she hurried behind him.
Once again, the group returned to the green.
Vickie was actively stretching her wrists and ankles. She said to Massimo who had followed after her not too far away, “Young Master Nolan, please stand a little further away. I’m afraid that my movements might be too big and it’ll injure you by accident.”
Massimo stared at the two people who were about to engage in a fight just because of a verbal disagreement. He looked troubled but also helpless.
In the end, he simply sighed and stood aside.
Gregory walked in front of her with a stern expression.
Seemingly kind, he reminded, “Vickie, most of your techniques were taught by me. Besides, women are naturally disadvantaged compared to men in terms of strength. Do you really think you can win?”
Vickie smiled coldly.
She directed a glare, that seemed like sharp blades, at him and enunciated clearly, “Whether or not I can win, we’ll know after this fight!”
With that, she lunged at him like a madwoman.
This was truly an incredible fight.
The two of them were equally matched in terms of skill, technique, and reflexes. As Gregory said, he indeed possessed the male advantage and was the stronger of the two, but all the same, Vickie was not a lame duck.
She had met a judo master during her four years in prison and she did not do anything other than train under her instructions every single day. After four years, her judo skills had achieved some success.
Thus, Gregory’s brute strength was easily overcome by her natural female gracefulness and flexibility. Even after forty or fifty moves, there was no clear winner. If anything, the fight turned even tenser.
At the sidelines, Massimo dared not breathe as he watched them.
Watching both opponents’ vicious techniques, he thought that these two people were crazy!
Yuliana was also very anxious. She was not worried about whether the two of them would get injured but instead, she worried that Gregory would lose the fight. If that was the case, he would feel disgraced and he would surely blame it on her.
After all, he fought this woman because of her!
Thinking of this, a wave of sweet satisfaction could not help but erupt in her heart again.
She felt that, for a proud and outstanding man like Gregory to fight someone for her sake, it must be attributed to her charm. All of his previous rejections of her were merely due to character incompatibility but deep in his heart, he still cared about her. Sooner or later, he would fall in love with her.
Yuliana’s anxiety was not yet over when suddenly, she heard a loud crunch.
Gregory had whipped out his leg and swiped it across Vickie Thomas’ leg, causing her to stumble.
Yuliana could not help but exclaim, “Good! Gregory, you’re the best!”
Massimo turned his head and glared at her.
However, before she had time to gloat, she suddenly saw Vickie fall on the ground as if she was completely boneless. In a flash, Vickie wrapped herself around Gregory’s calf and climbed upwards. They did not even have the chance to see what happened before the next moment, Vickie had somehow climbed atop Gregory’s shoulders.
Massimo felt a pang of elation in his heart. He silently roared from the bottom of his heart, ‘That was amazing!’
Vickie wrapped her hands around Gregory’s neck, slightly out of breath, yet she smiled coldly. “Gregory Graham, what do you think? Do you yield?”
However, Gregory snorted once. “Yield? Don’t even dream about it!”
Then, he threw all caution to the wind. He reached up to grab her calf which was riding on his neck before he bent over and rolled on the ground. Instantly, Vickie was thrown off.
Nevertheless, how could Vickie allow him to shake her off so easily?
