Chapter 223:
He lowered his head and muttered, “Tomorrow is the final match p>
“You should be happy about that. I believe you will win the match p>
Luke lifted his gaze to her and smiled sadly. “I worry that my father won’t let me continue in this field if I don’t win. He threatened to send me overseas if I lose the match. I don’t want that. It’s my dream to play basketball p>
Ava could see the pain in his eyes. He truly loved basketball. She remembered how he had fought for her with Ian and was injured a few months back. He couldn’t play for a long time and looked upset then.
“I am confident you will win, Luke p>
Luke nodded and grinned at her. “With your support, I can do anything. I have no desire to go overseas. I want to live here with Mom and Dad. I don’t know why my dad won’t listen to me p>
Ava looked away and muttered, “Luke, I p>
Once again, she was interrupted. This time, it was the coach.
“Luke, return to practice. It’s not time to be chatting with your girlfriend p>
Ava was stunned by the coach’s words. Luke smiled at her before getting up from the bench.
“I’m going back to practice. We’ll talk later. Maybe we’ll talk tomorrow after the match. You’ll come to watch the match, right p>
Ava stood up and replied, “Yes, I will p>
She wanted to talk to him today, but after glancing at the others who had stopped playing and were waiting for their captain, she sighed and decided to speak with him tomorrow. “Good luck, Luke p>
“Thank you, Ava p>
With a smile, Luke returned to his practice.
Ava watched him play. He was extremely talented. Since he had won the last practice match, she assumed he would win the upcoming game and achieve his dream.
After a while, Ava turned to leave the basketball court. As she passed by, she overheard others talking about the match.

“Ian will win the match without a doubt p>
“Of course he will. He doesn’t even need to practice p>
“I heard he changed the practice time. He arrived here early in the morning to practice and left an hour ago p>
“He is probably very busy p>
“Today is his birthday. I think he and his friends have plans p>
“I wish I could be part of the Power Gang p>
Listening to the boys and girls, Ava walked toward the other gate of the campus.
So Stephen was in the middle of practice when Dad called him, she thought. Ava stopped suddenly when she remembered she still hadn’t retrieved her phone from Ronald.
She began searching for Ronald until she found him in the cafeteria with Paul.
“Hi, Ava p>
“Hi. Steph said you have my phone,†Ava said.
Ronald raised his eyebrows when he heard her. “Yeah, I have it p>
