    Chapter 187


    ric had outstanding talent and worked hard. He originally had a bright future ahead of him but his


    dreams were destroyed suddenly. It was a cruel blow.


    Athena had no such experience but felt suffocated just thinking about it. After a moment of silence,


    she looked up at ric “Do you regret it?”


    ric shook his head and looked out of the window in a daze. “I don’t regret it. I’m just…


    devastated. I feel as though I can’t breathe.


    It was ten o’clock in the morning. The sun was shining brightly and the temperature was just right.


    The world seemed full of promise, just like him. However, there was no light in ric’s eyes.


    Athena lowered her head and continued to treat the wounds on his arm. “Are you willing to ept


    this? Do you want to turn


    them in?”


    “I can’t. ric shook his head, “When the coach asked me to throw the match, we were the only


    ones in the lounge. There were no witnesses and no recordings. Moreover, I’m insignificant. If I


    report them without sufficient evidence, I’ll be forced to apologize or be sued. My reputation will be


    ruined.”


    Athena still found it strange. “It’s just a warm-up match. Why did Faraway Club have to lose to


    Hatnd?”


    ric said. “The coach said the club is sponsored by apany from Hatnd. They can’t ept


    Hatnd’s National Basketball Team losing to the club. If the club wins, they will cancel the


    sponsorship. Besides, this is also a test for me by the chib


    “Test?” Athena was bewildered. “What can they test you by asking you to throw the match?”


    “Obedience. ric’s eyes were filled with anger. He gritted his teeth and said. “To put it bluntly, this


    is to test my obedience. They require yers to obey the club, be it right or wrong.”


    “How shameless and despicable!” Athena snapped. She cursed a bit more before asking. “When


    the coach wanted to rece you, how did you convince him not to?”


    “I threatened him,” ric said coldly, “I said if he switched me out. I’d go all out and tell everyone


    right there and then that he is forcing me to throw the match. That way, we’ll both lose. He got


    scared.”


    Athena nodded and began to treat the wound on his face. “What about the national team? Why


    didn’t they choose you?”


    T


    ric closed his eyes to hide his disappointment. There’s suddenly apetitor from Aeloria. He’s


    taller and stronger than me. He also won the championship in Aeloria’s college basketball league


    and has just turned 18. The national team can only choose one of us. They couldn’t decide for a


    long time.


    “If I had the support and guarantee of the best local club, the probability of being selected would be


    very high.”


    Athena was silent for a moment. “What do you n to do next? Do you still want to continue ying


    basketball?”


    ric shook his head. “I don’t want to anymore. When I go back to school, I will quit the basketball


    team and focus on my studies. When I have time, I’ll help Mom at the restaurant. Then, I’ll think


    about what I want to do in the future.”


    Atherta said, “Are you willing to give up on your dream just like that?”


    ric sounded like he wanted to cry as he said, “I’m not happy about it but I won’tin. Jaden


    gave up his life in the cuy and went back to the countryside to grow vegetables and care for


    Grandpa. Brandon always said he is doing well in Aeloria, but we know he must be having a harder


    time than anyone in this family.


    “Zayn says the same thing, but we know he’s at the front lines. He is in one of the most dangerous


    military units and

    probably risks his life constantly. Even Arthur and Maria gave up their studies to help the family.”


    ric opened his eyes and said seriously, Tm the only one who enjoys the love and care of the


    family but hasn’t contributed anything. This time, I might be able to help out.”


    Athena fell silent. It was not until she finished treating the wounds on ric’s face that she ced


    her hand on his shoulder and said seriously. “ric, trust me, God rewards hard work. He will not let


    down those who are talented and hardworking. If this path is closed to you, there will be another


    path”


    Athena had already thought of how to help ric.


    However, if ric wanted to be a top athlete, he had to be strong mentally and optimistic. She


    needed time to observe ric and see if he was worth it.


    “Thanks, Athena,” ric grinned. His anger seemed to have dissipated a lot. “The world is big, and


    I’m young. I’ll always find


    new dream and a new future.”


    At this point, he stood up and walked to the window. He raised his arms and shouted, “From today


    onward, I will find a new goal and start a new journey. My life is still wonderful!”


    Athena looked at his back and smiled. Without saying anything else, she picked up the first aid kit


    and walked out of the


    100M


    When ric went to school the next day, under everyone’s admiring and then horrified gazes, he


    applied to leave the school seam. The reason was that he had been injured in the game the day


    before yesterday and had developed a phobia of basketball. He could not y basketball anymore.


    The coach tried his best to persuade him to stay. “If you quit the team, you won’t be a sports student


    anymore. You’ll lose its privileges. Have you thought it through?”


    “Yes, I know,” ric said firmly, “I want to focus on my studies from now on. I don’t want to y


    basketball anymore.”


    The entire school was filled with regret, but the matter was already set in stone.


    It was also on this day that the National Basketball Team announced their new recruit. The Faraway


    Club also announced the neer they had just signed on. Neither of them was ric..


    The entire school was in an uproar. They looked at ric with sympathy and pity.


    As for ric, he held his chin high and wore a smile on his face, Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    After reading the two sports news, Athena smiled and made a call. “Are you guys open for the


    National Day holiday? If you are, I want to reserve your venue for that day.


    “In addition, I’d like your club’s professional yers to y against the guy I am bringing. I’ll pay you


    20 thousand dors for each game. For each match you win, you’ll earn another 20 thousand


    dors.
