Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 

“With this kind of performance, they think they can represent Comett High School in the nationals? They’re dreaming!” 

Jack’s face turned a deep shade of red as he overheard the students from Comett High School grumbling. 

By halftime, Westbrook High School was already ten points ahead. 

“Has Dane’s team lost their minds today? They’re playing like beasts!” The players from Comett High School were fuming. “How has Westbrook High improved so much since the prelims?” 

They were struggling to keep up. 

Jack shot a glance at Dane and his team, who were all smiles, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. 

*Jack, what do we do now? If we are still like this, they’re definitely going to win,” a player from Comett High School asked with a serious expression. 

“Win? Not so fast Jack sneered, “Gather around, I’ll tell you what we need to do when we get back on the court…” 

‘Dane, those losers from Comett High School are up to something,” Alex nudged Dane with his elbow. 

“Let them plot. We just need to focus on our game.” 

Dane stood up and addressed the Westbrook High School players loudly, “Everyone played great just now. Keep it up, and this game is 

ours! 

“Let’s follow Dane’s lead!* 

‘Let’s crush Cornett High School!* 

“After we win, let’s hit up that burger place Dane’s family owns!” 

*Sure, eat as much as you want.” 

After Dane finished speaking with a grin, he couldn’t help but glance up at Flora in the stands. 

Feeling his gaze, Flora saw his eyes sparkling like stars. He lifted his chin towards her as if to say, they were sure to win. 

Flora smiled and gave them a big thumbs up. 

When the second half of the game began, Cornett High School’s strategy had completely changed. They stopped focusing on defense and started playing aggressively. 

Just as Alex intercepted the ball, a Comett High School player charged straight at him, deliberately knocking him down. 

Alex hit the ground hard, writhing in pain, and another Comett High School player stomped on his elbow. 

“Ah!” Alex screamed in agony. 

The game was temporarily halted due to the incident. 

Dane hurried over to check on Alex’s injury. 

“Sorry, I didn’t see you fall.” Looking at Alex, who was pale and sweating from pain, the Comett High School player withdrew his foot, feigning innocence. 

“You did that on purpose!” The Westbrook High School players shouted, outraged. 

“Prove it. The ref didn’t say we did it on purpose, so what makes you think so?” the Cornett High School players retorted confidently. 

“Well, it was just an accident. The game will continue.” 

The referee coughed lightly and quickly walked away. 

The Cornett High School player smirked at Dane and walked off. 

*How are you? Can you continue?” Dane helped Alex up, frowning with concern. 

“Yeah!” Alex clutched his swollen elbow, his face set with determination. 

The game resumed, and Dane was the first to successfully intercept the ball. 

A group of Cornett High School players blocked him, intentionally jabbing him with their elbows and bodies. Dane narrowly avoided injury several times. 

Protecting the ball, he faked a move and passed it to a Westbrook High School player. 

Just as his teammate caught the ball and was about to shoot, a Cornett High School player charged at him, tripping him and stomping on his fingers! 

In no time, Dane’s teammates were battered and bruised.
