Five Lost Angels: My Husband's Fatal Deception novel Chapter 205

He pointed his finger at Bright, who was barely holding it together for our family’s honor, and spoke bitterly.

"I can say for sure that a simp like you doesn’t deserve Laura’s love, Bright. You have tricked her into thinking that you are a cool dude, but no woman can spend her entire life with the sorry excuse of a man."

He bragged about his ideology of a true man, a rough and tough guy. According to him, real men solve their conflicts through fists.

"Unfortunately, I created some troubles for Laura, giving you a chance to console her and be the hero in her life. You won Laura’s heart because of my wrongdoings.

In reality, you don’t even have a personality that Laura will spare a glance for you."

I failed to understand the purpose of Leo’s belittling as Bright wasn’t a person to be easily irritated. He had a firm command over his emotions. That was why he stayed calm and asked Leo a simple query which was bothering me from the moment he stepped into the hall.

"I respect your perspective, Leo. Thanks for letting us know what you think. Now, tell me, why have you come here today?

How can we help you?"

Bright’s cool tone really stoked the flames of Leo’s rage, he dropped a bomb of his hidden agenda.

"You want to hear the truth, then I dare you. Let’s settle this matter in the rink, Bright. Whoever wins, will have the right to marry Laura."

Christ on a bike! An ice hockey match?

Had Leo literally lost it?

A chorus of audible gasps echoed in the hall as Leo’s presumptuous proposal left everyone stunned. He must have borrowed the guts from the devil to propose something like that.

After reflecting his repulsion for Bright, Leo has raised the bar of how shameless someone could be and challenged him for an ice hockey match. Like, I was a trophy or a prize of some kind he could win through his sports skills.

This idiotic idea set me on fire, I openly opposed it.

"Go to hell with your dumb plan. Bright won’t play a match with you."

Whoever wins, Laura has to marry him."

What the fuck?

I was going to slap Leo for his daring to repeat the challenge, but Bright’s equally stupid response took me by surprise. He spoke firmly.

"I, Bright Wilson, will see you in the rink for a match this Saturday. Get ready for a defeat, Leo!"

That jerk’s lips stretched in a victorious smile, throwing my world into chaos. Leo offered his hand for a handshake and said,

"Great.

I would love to bust your sorry ass on the rink, Bright. Laura is bound to be mine!"
