Chapter 777 Not Qualified
Being pushed back by the force, Jara failed to hit the ball. Right away, Emmeline took the most advantageous position and prepared to swing when all of a sudden, her club was entangled with Jara's club. At that moment, it was as if her arm was pulled by a huge force, raising in the air, and once again, she lost her chance.
Now, Emmeline became a little angry.
At this point, the two of them had a good understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses, so they did not dare to act rashly again.
Slightly bending her body, Emmeline glared at Jara who was also in the same posture on alert. She gritted her teeth and said, "You're definitely going to lose today!"
Hearing that, Jara sneered, "You're so confident?"
"Of course!"
As soon as she finished her words, she moved her right arm and suddenly went right under his armpit.
Immediately, Jara narrowed his eyes, but before he could react, she had already grasped his club in her hand. Following that, she jumped to his right-hand side in an extremely tricky position, and with a gentle swing of her left arm, she managed to hit the ball right into the hole from a distance.
Seeing that, Isaac cheered and applauded excitedly.
"Bravo! So amazing! Emmeline, well done!"
Being overly excited, he accidentally called Emmeline by the name he used to call her.
But Emmeline and Jara didn't seem to bother. Then, Jara wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said, "I lost."
Raising her eyebrows, Emmeline said with pride, "What about the bet?"
Without running away from his defeat, Jara asked, "What do you want?"
Hearing that, Emmeline was stumped by the question.
To ask Jara for something? To be honest, she hadn't thought about it yet.
After noticing that she was hesitating, Jara smiled.
"No hurry. You can think about it first. It will be effective as long as you tell me by today."
After that, he turned around and walked to the rest area.
Kayla had been waiting for a long time. When she watched the match between the two of them earlier, she was really anxious. Thinking that Jara would definitely win, she didn't expect Emmeline would actually win in the end.
So she was dissatisfied. After waiting for Jara to come closer, she handed him a cup of iced drink that she had ordered for him a while ago. Then, she proceeded to complain. "Jara, clearly she didn't know her place. What is she to even beat you in the game?"
Jara was about to reach out to take the cup, but upon hearing that, he paused.
Then he glanced at her with a cold gaze. "What is she? Are you in the position to say that?"
Hearing that, Kayla was stunned.
In the next second, Jara withdrew his hand and ordered the waiter next to him coldly, "Bring me a glass of ice water."
"Yes."
Upon receiving the order, the waiter left hurriedly. On the other hand, Kayla was stunned. She quickly walked up to Jara with the cup in her hand and explained in a soft voice, "Jara, I have specially ordered this for you..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Jara.
"Don't make the decision to order sugary drinks for me next time! I don't need you to serve me what to drink!"
After that, he picked up the club again and went to the court.
Hearing that, Kayla was completely stunned as she stood at the same spot.
The sudden impassiveness that Jara deliberately gave off caused her a great sense of humiliation.
Especially when she thought that the others were looking at her, and among those was Emmeline, who had an unforgettable past with him. While feeling a burning sensation on her face, Kayla could feel the pain and hate rising in her.
It was all because of Emmeline!
With a burning hatred, she turned her head and stared at Emmeline. Then, she strode over in her high heels.
After winning the game, Emmeline was in a better mood than she was in the morning.
At the time, she was drinking water while chatting with Isaac.
Suddenly, the glass in her hand was snatched away by someone. In the next second, she felt a cold sensation down her face as the cup of water was poured all over her body.
"You shameless b*tch! What did you say to Jara to make him side with you?"
While Emmeline closed her eyes and opened them again, she saw Kayla's angered face appeared in front of her.
Stunned, Isaac stood at the side, feeling helpless.
"Miss Burke, you..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a slap.
A resounding smack landed on Kayla's face.
Suddenly, Isaac shut his mouth as he turned to look at Emmeline in shock. However, he noticed Emmeline's eyes were calm as if there was nothing unusual about what just happened.
With an extremely calm voice, she said, "Who do you think you are? You are in no position to question me."
Upon hearing that, Kayla went mad.
It was the first time in her life that she had been bullied by a woman that way!
While she covered her face with a hand, she felt her cheek was swollen up at a speed that could be felt by her palm. Immediately, her eyes went red as she was angry and anxious at the same time.
"Y—You dare to hit me?!"
Seeing her reaction, Emmeline scoffed.
Then, she took the handkerchief that Isaac handed over and wiped off the water on her face, as she said, "Since you had your face in front of me, I might as well give you a slap. If you are unhappy about it, you can complain to Jara and ask him to stand up for you!"
When Kayla heard her reply, she was so angry that her face turned red.
But she knew that she was no match for Emmeline in a fight.
At first, Kayla didn't take Emmeline seriously, but now it seemed that she was actually a troublesome person.
Hence, she would do anything to keep Emmeline away from Jara!
At the thought of this, a hint of hatred flashed across her eyes. Gritting her teeth, she then said, "Well, wait for me! I will tell Jara that you bully me!"
After that, she stomped off in her high heels toward the direction of the court angrily.
Throughout the entire situation, Emmeline's eyes remained impassive. At the time, the water on her face had dried off, and suddenly she realized that she was using Isaac's handkerchief.
So, she turned to him and said, "Sorry, I'll give the handkerchief back to you next time after I wash it clean."
In a trance, Isaac thought her strong aura just now reminded him of her glory four years ago. While being stunned for a moment, he then came around and shook his head quickly.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a handkerchief. Just throw it away. Emmeline, you..."
Before continuing, he paused for a moment as if he was in a bit of a dilemma.
Looking up at him with a faint smile, she asked, "You aren't calling me Miss Illington anymore?"
Hearing that, Isaac smiled apologetically.
Back then, when Emmeline and Jara broke up, Jara did not allow any of them to make friends with Emmeline. Therefore, he was forced to address her as Miss Illington to show the distance between the two and his stand.
But today, when he saw her sharp and fierce appearance again, he thought she looked more mature and calm compared to four years ago, but she didn't lose her edge.
A complex feeling welled up in him at that moment and he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Scratching his head, he then and said, "Things between you two are too complicated. As an outsider, it's inappropriate for me to be involved. It's just that in the past four years, Jara's life has not been as easy as you think, so if possible..."
"No, I can't."
Before he could finish, Emmeline seemed to have guessed what he was going to say.
So, she interrupted impassively, then continued lightly, "I have an irreconcilable hatred for him. Either he dies or I die."
Hearing that, Isaac swallowed what he was planning to say.
