Chapter 641 Sweet Extra of Couple Variety Show 126
Jessica never could have predicted that a bunch of grown men playing beach basketball could be so captivating.
And it wasn't just the game; even the older Maurice was still tall and handsome, and the other guys were even more eye-catching.
Especially the one she couldn't take her eyes off—the most stunningly handsome of them all—her husband, Gabriel.
In just half a minute, Gabriel managed to dribble past three opponents. When everyone thought he'd pass the ball to Brent, he didn't. Instead, he maneuvered through the defenders and made a surprising leap for a beautiful slam dunk, scoring another point for his team.
The whistle blew sharply, and even the director couldn't help but marvel at the excitement of the first game.
Everyone, including the staff and guests who didn't know Gabriel could take this game so seriously, was shocked, and Jessica was no exception.
Gabriel, this man.
Was there anything he can't do?
Anything he couldn't excel at?
He had kept his talents hidden for so long, and now it seemed he wouldn't even spare her girlish heart.
"Mr. Harriman, that was awesome!" Clayton turned back in admiration, grabbed a towel to wipe his sweat, and took a water bottle, ready to discuss the next game's strategy with Kevin and Lester.
Although they lost this round, there were still two more to go, and the final outcome was still up in the air.
Kevin also grabbed a towel to wipe his sweat and listened as Clayton leaned in to talk.
Lester joined them too.
After the game, Gabriel didn't look at the basketball hoop again. Instead, he noticed Jessica, who had been watching from the sidelines for a while. He took a bottle of water, opened it, and walked straight towards her without drinking.
Brent picked up the basketball from under the hoop, dribbling as he walked over to chat with Gabriel. He couldn't hide his excitement, but seeing Gabriel heading towards Jessica, he quickly stopped, turned around, and pulled Maurice, who had been watching the game, to join Clayton and the others. They started discussing their strategy, and soon, the group of men burst into laughter. Lester, still not fond of Brent, couldn't help but glance in Gabriel's direction, though he was thoroughly impressed by their loss.
However, Gabriel didn't bother to look back at him, not even a glance.
"Brent, don't get too cocky. We thought Mr. Harriman would pass the ball to you, so we got distracted. Next round, we'll double-team Mr. Harriman. As for you, I'll handle you myself. Maurice is just a spectator, so we won't bother with him. You better think about what you're going to do next," Lester said.
Brent scoffed, "Stop talking big. Aren't you embarrassed by what you said earlier? Let's see the score on the court."
Jessica saw that the first game had ended and they were taking a break. She quickly walked over to Gabriel, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him. Suddenly, she blurted out a compliment that was both shallow and honest, something she had never said in all their time together, "Gabriel, aren't you a bit too handsome?"
Gabriel's eyebrows twitched slightly at her words. He glanced at her and handed her the opened water bottle, signaling with his eyes for her to drink more water.
"Aren't you thirsty?" Jessica asked as she took the bottle and drank, having just finished playing volleyball herself and not yet had any water.
Gabriel didn't answer. After she had drunk enough, he took the bottle back and finished the remaining water himself.
