Chapter 137
Afraid of disturbing the rest of the people in the hospital, the two of them went straight to the empty space in the back garden of the hospital. Haley and Albert stood opposite each other.
Haley looked at Albert. He should be younger than her. Thinking that he was Mona’s younger brother, she wanted him to lose with dignity. She said, “You make the first move. Since you’re Mona’s younger brother, I’ll let you make three moves first, no, five!”
Albert was amused by her and said, “I won’t need you to let me win.”
“Since that’s the case, let’s start. Let’s end this carly. I’m going to have lunch.” Haley waved at Albert, signaling him to come
over.
Albert looked at this familiar scene. It seemed that when he fought with Maxwell, Maxwell had also made this gesture to him. Then, he went over and lost.
Albert was determined not to make the first move. He imitated Haley and waved at her, signaling her to make the first move.
Haley wanted to eat lunch quickly. She stopped talking nonsense to Albert and ran straight to him. When she was a distance away, she jumped and aimed at Albert’s head.
At that moment, Albert felt a shadow flash before his eyes. Then, for some reason, he collapsed.
When he fell on the grass, he remembered that the shadow in front of him was Haley, the girl he looked down on. Her jumping ability was actually so good.
“Well, you’re too weak. Admit defeat. You’re not my match.” Haley clapped her hands and stood in front of Albert.
“You…” Albert was so angry that he could not speak.
“Admit defeat. If you still don’t want to admit defeat, I can continue to fight with you,” Haley said.
“Fine, you win,” Albert said awkwardly. A wise man did not fight when the odds were against him. He did not want to be beaten up by Maxwell like last time. ‘Haley is probably more powerful than Maxwell.‘
“Good, can you get up?” Haley extended her hand to help Albert up. She did not know if she had controlled her strength when she kicked him just now.
“Yes.” After Albert finished speaking, he got up in one breath.
“Oh, then I’ll go eat. Take your time.” After Haley finished speaking, she did not care about Albert anymore. She went to the ward to look for Mona. Since Albert could stand up on his own, he should be fine.
Albert looked at Haley who was running faster than a rabbit and wondered where Maxwell found such a person. ‘Her look
bilities don’t match at all.‘

As soon as Haley arrived at the ward, she told Mona about how she defeated Albert. She looked like she was asking for praise.
“Impressive. You came back at the right time. The chef just sent the food over,” Mona praised without hesitation.
When Haley saw the table full of food, she felt so hungry. She walked straight to the dining table, her face full of desire.
“Haley, is Albert okay? Why isn’t he back yet?” Mona asked. Logically speaking, the two of them should have come back together. However, Haley had been back for so long and Albert was still not back.
“Pretty good. He only took one kick from me. He’s moving too slowly, but he should be coming back soon.” As soon as Haley

finished speaking, Albert pushed the door open and came in. He happened to hear Haley say that she had kicked him.
It was so embarrassing.
Mona smiled awkwardly. “You’re back. Quickly wash your hands and eat.”
At this moment, Jane also woke up. The four of them gathered around the dining table for lunch.
Jane liked Haley very much. She looked very likable. However, when Jane thought that Haley was the bodyguard that Maxwell had hired for Mona, Jane was a little puzzled. ‘Who could Haley beat with her delicate arms and legs?‘
“Grandma, don’t be fooled by Haley’s cute appearance. She’s great at fighting. Albert just experienced it.” Mona knew what Jane was thinking just by looking at Jane’s expression.
“Alright, Mona, stop talking. I know I’m not strong enough now. When I’m strong enough in a few years, I’ll come and challenge her one–on–one. I’ll challenge Maxwell too.” As Albert spoke, he took a big bite of the drumstick.
Hearing Mona and Albert’s words, Jane was half–convinced. “This girl called Haley could actually beat Albert. It seems that she’s not bad.
The chicken drumstick Haley liked was picked up by Albert. She felt a little sad, but when she saw the chicken wings beside her, her mood immediately improved.
As she ate, she said, “You won’t be able to defeat me in a few years. I’m improving too.”
“You…” Albert was furious. He looked at the chicken wings on Haley’s plate and picked up the last chicken wing. ‘Humph, she’s really too infuriating.
