Chapter 701 Agree With the Conditions
Upon hearing that, Jara was speechless.
He fell quiet as if he had been given a hard time by her.
After a long while, he chuckled.

Then, he said playfully, "Maxi is all grown up now and he is becoming rebellious."
Hearing that, Clarissa was stunned.
Somehow, Jara seemed to know that the more she hated him to talk in that manner, the more he wanted to do so.
It seemed that he was born to argue with her.
Rubbing the space between her eyebrows, she felt a slight headache.
"Jara, do you believe that I'll go back to Sapleusia right away and forgo this deal? We will end this immediately and part our own ways!"
Hearing that, Jara laughed softly. "You've learned so many bad ideas from others, and you can't let me say anything about you?"
After a pause, he seemed to realize that she was really getting angry, so immediately changed the topic.
"Alright, I promise you. As long as you win this Flying competition for me, I will tell you everything I know nine years ago."
It was only then did Clarissa breathe a sigh of relief.
"Okay, It's a deal."
"It's a deal."
After coming into a consensus with Jara, Clarissa hung up the phone.
Then, she got up and poured herself a cup of warm water. Walking to the balcony outside, she gazed at the bustling night scenery of Blink City, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
It's been nine years!
in half a year's time, it would be ten years since she stepped foot in this place.
And from an 18-year-old girl, she had become a mother of two children.
However, the cloud of doubt had always lingered deep down in her and she had never found an answer to it.
Clarissa would never forget that nine years ago, she woke up to find herself lying on an unfamiliar white surgical bed one day.
Next to her were Jara, Mark and a few others.
They looked at her, telling her that she was rescued from the sea.
At the time, she had a very bad injury. The doctor spent a few hours operating on her, and she was in a coma for many days before she woke up.
Clarissa used to try very hard to recall everything that had happened before.
But she couldn't remember anything.
It was as if someone had dug a big hole in her memory. The only thing she could remember was her experience within the country.
As for what had happened after she arrived in F Country, she could not remember at all.
It had been three months since she arrived at F Country now.
Three months was enough for a lot of things to happen, but this memory seemed to disappear from her mind.
She had no idea where she had gone, what she had done, or what she had gone through.
As if a gap had suddenly appeared at the centre of a tall building.
Although she seemed to be safe and sound now, deep down in her heart, there was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any time.
Therefore, she really wanted to figure it out.
Closing her eyes, she let the night breeze blow on her face, feeling the coolness.
A long time had passed before she opened her eyes again, and her gaze was clear.
Then, she turned around and walked into the room.
The next day.
Although Clarissa went to bed late, she woke up early.
When Nora knocked on the door and came in, she had already gotten up and was getting ready.
Seeing her come in, Clarissa signaled her to sit down. After washing up, she changed her clothes and came out, asking, "Did you sleep well last night?"
With a smile, Nora replied, "Yes. It's so quiet here. It feels really good."
Hearing that, Clarissa smiled and reached out to pick up a few things that she needed today, then said, "Let's go get breakfast. After that, we'll go straight to the training ground."
"Okay."
With a nod, Nora responded.
After she got ready, the two of them headed out.
As usual, they had breakfast in the hotel restaurant on the second floor.
After the meal, the two went straight to the training ground.
The receptionist was the same person who served them yesterday. When he saw Clarissa, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Hi, Clarissa, you're here."
With a smile, Clarissa nodded and said, "The same one yesterday, please."
"Okay, Ma'am!"
After handing her the key, he suddenly smiled bashfully and asked, "Er... May I ask you a question?"
Clarissa raised her eyebrows. "Go ahead."
"Erm... Can I get your autograph?"
As he spoke, he took out a pen and a small notebook.
Hearing the request, Clarissa was a little surprised. It never occurred to her that he was going to ask this question.
Then, she couldn't help but laugh. "I'm not a star. Why would you want my autograph?"
Although she said so, she couldn't refuse it. However, as she took over the notebook and the pen, she was not in a hurry to sign on it.
The receptionist scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile, "Although you are not one now, I think you will become one in the future. Don't think that I don't know. I can see that you came here for this Flying competition, right? With your ability, you will definitely get the first prize. When you win the championship, you will naturally become a star, and it won't be so easy to get your signature by then, so I'm getting it in advance."
It was obvious that the receptionist was from Ascijan, as his use of idiom was very well-versed.
For a moment, Clarissa didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but it was indeed not her intention to come here sneakily.
Therefore, she did not hide the truth and nodded. "You're right. We came here for the competition."
As she spoke, she signed her name and handed the notebook and pen to her. Then, she smiled and said, "I'll borrow your luck. I'll thank you after I win the championship."
Hearing that, the receptionist smiled shyly and nodded.
After that, he saw them off to the training ground.
The task Clarissa assigned for herself today was to practice for eight hours and try to make the perfect turn.
As usual, Nora would look from the side, passing her water and towel along the way.
When it was noon, the two of them finished their lunch casually over there. They took two hours off and continued to train in the afternoon.
Perhaps it was less busy in the afternoon, the receptionist who had served them before came over too.
Sitting beside Nora, he watched with her.
"You're from Ascijan, aren't you?" He asked.
Turning to look at him, Nora nodded. "Yes."
The man smiled and said, "My mother is also from Ascijan, so you're basically my fellow countrymen."
Hearing that, Nora was taken aback, and was somewhat surprised.
However, after looking at him carefully, she realized there was indeed some resemblance between his eyes and eyebrows, so she nodded with understanding.
"Oh, I see."
Nora was not a person who was good at chatting, let alone chatting with strangers, so her replies were short and awkward.
If it was someone else but not the receptionist, perhaps this conversation would no longer continue.
But this receptionist was obviously not that kind of person.
Even though he was different from Sam in many ways, both of them were chatty.
Even if Nora was indifferent, it didn't bother him as he said, "Actually, I know your friend. What I said earlier was wrong. She didn't have to wait to become a star. She was a superstar, wasn't she?"
