Chapter 71

Jordan was utterly mortified. He couldn't stay there any longer and scurried away.

Oliver then approached Jack and enthusiastically invited him to have a chat about basketball together. Follow current novᴇls on fіndnovel.net

That said, Jack politely uttered a few words before rejecting the offer, saying that he had no plans to do that at the moment.

When Jack turned to look for Phoebe, he couldn't see her anywhere.

Samuel guessed who he was looking for and said, "A student called Phoebe over and left with her."

At first, Phoebe wanted to talk to Jack after the match ended. But since Jack was surrounded by many people, she was unable to approach him. Then, her roommate, Shirley Terra, dragged her away.

As they were in the same school and the same faculty, Phoebe felt that they would be able to meet again in the future, so she left with Shirley.

Once Jack found out that she had left, he felt a little upset. However, he also knew that they would have more opportunities to meet one day.

Meanwhile, Bella was reading a magazine in her dorm room. Memories of the meeting between Phoebe and Jack kept entering her mind.

On the other hand, Luna was meticulously applying makeup. She planned to attend a banquet that day.

The students had organized the event, and many talented chairmans from different student committees would be attending it.

In fact, a mysterious guest from Zenith Alliance had been rumored to attend it.

Thus, Luna planned to socialize with a few accomplished men there.

"Bella, are you attending the banquet later on? I'll introduce a few handsome guys to you. I heard that there will be people from Summit Alliance attending it too!"

Bella wasn't very interested in the prospect, so she didn't reply. This made Luna a little unhappy. "Are you still thinking about that scumbag? Why would you care about him that much?"

Bella remained silent and opened Alnewgo University's School Confessions page.

School Confessions was the internal blog of Alnewgo University-every hot topic would be discussed there.

Strangely enough, School Confessions was very popular at the moment.

The trending topic was the basketball competition between the freshmen of the School of Music and the School of Finance.

The topic was attention-grabbing because the School of Finance managed to win at the last moment.

After seeing that, Bella thought that she had been mistaken. However, as she read the post again, she realized that a substitute player who had been sitting near the water cooler had suddenly entered the court and overturned the game by himself.

Looking at the enthusiastic replies on School Confession, Bella realized that the basketball player must have performed really well.

He snatched the ball with phantom steals, did tomahawk dunks and windmill dunks, jumped level with the rim, shot a three-pointer from the mid-court, and blocked his opponents magnificently.

Those basketball phrases appeared repeatedly in the blog as they described the amazing moments of the match.

The basketball player in question turned out to be Jack.

Many people called him a once-in-a-century genius. Some even thought that he would be able to enter the Professional Military Basketball Team and become a rising star in the professional basketball world.

After looking at the comments, Bella regretted leaving early and missing out on seeing Jack play in the game.

She wondered if Jack really was so good at basketball.

After that, Bella started to view Jack in a new light. His guitar playing was

touching, his gaming skills were excellent, and his basketball skills were amazing.

It was as if Bella had seen a new side of him.

Thankfully enough, some students who watched the match uploaded videos of it on School Confessions.

Bella watched those videos and saw how skillful Jack was. Every slam dunk that he performed made her excited, and every successful defensive play made her gasp in awe.
