Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2453

It didn't matter how jealous the male students felt as they had already long accepted that fact.

After all, Leon Batton was not only rich, but he was also handsome. Compared to him, the rest of them seemed inferior.

Under the guidance of the coach, the two classes completed their warm-ups.

"Today, you are going to work on your three-step shots. Divide into two teams and start practicing once you're finished with warming up," the coach announced.

"Yes, Coach," the students replied before doing as told.

"What are you looking at, Leon?" Lynette Batton questioned with her head cocked sideways while gazing at her brother.

He didn't reply and merely stood staring at one particular spot where a small figure stood. That figure returned his stare and was none other than Hannah Roland, the mystery girl.

Hannah stayed in the corner and gulped. She didn't expect to be in the same physical education lesson as Leon, but was happy enough with the coincidence and being in the same place as him. Shaking her head, she forced herself to stop thinking about it before sitting upright while trying her best not to stand out.

She couldn't shake off the feeling of being watched, however.

"Leon?" Lynette repeated his name, realizing that her brother hadn't heard her. She frowned and pouted while waving her hand in front of his eyes. He finally looked away but remained quiet.

"What were you looking at? You didn't even respond to me when I spoke to you," she said, noticing that he was acting increasingly erratic lately. "Nothing," Leon replied while walking forward with a basketball in his grip.

"Nothing? There must be something. Tell me!" She sensed something was up, and she insisted that he shared whatever it was with her. Nonetheless, he would only smile and shake his head no matter how she bothered him.

Leon continued to play basketball by himself, bouncing the ball in his hands and doing a half-spin before catching it again. It looked like magic.

Then, he lowered his hands, holding the ball by his waist before raising it

"Ahh! He's so cool!"

The female students fawned over his action as they stole glances at him.

Suddenly, Leon became the center of attention in the entire stadium, emanating an aura that seemed impossible to ignore.

His face remained devoid of

emotions as he continued dribbling

the ball. All that female attention

and

fanfare was nothing to be proud of.

He stopped several meters away from the basketball hoop and then lifted the ball to make a shot. It went in smoothly.

He then made several more shots, all of which went in.

"He's way too good! Not only is he rich and smart, but he's even talented at basketball!"

"Indeed, he's the most popular guy in school. He's amazing!"

The entire sports stadium was vibrant with the female students' screams and cheers.

They watched in awe as Leon's fair skin flushed from the practice. Even his fringe was drenched with sweat.
