Chapter 198
When Sophia reached the campus, she saw Sarah and Sean walking toward her. Almost every day, the
duo came to the campus together because they seemed to be neighbors.
“Sofie,e and take a look at thetest magazine! There’s a surprise inside!”
Sarah brought Sophia to the campus’s most crowded newspaper stand. There, the magazines that
defamed Stanley had been removed and were reced by a new edition of esports magazines.
Coincidentally, Stanley was on the covers too.
This time, the magazines were full of Stanley’s well-groomed photos instead of candid shots. As usual,
Stanley was in his punk style. He looked attractive in the professionally shot and slightly edited photos.
When Sophia read the magazine while walking, she found that the whole magazine was talking about
esports and Stanley’s interview even took up a lot of pages.
Oh dear. This guy is actually so capable, Sophia thought. Not only was he the worthiest esports yer in
Cethos, but he was also very famous in the international esports industry. Previously, he even led a team
of Cethonian online gamers and defeated every foreign team in an international esports tournament,
winning themselves the first ce.
The British prince has asked for his guidance; the Swedish princess has tried courting him; the President
has brought him on a state visit because he’s the most outstanding teen in Cethos…
“I’ve never thought that Stan is so talented!” Sarah eximed.
Meanwhile, Sophia also seemed to be impressed by Stanley because she had been regarding him as a
nerd. It seemed like all the Fletchers were indeed extraordinary.
They walked to the basketball court while chatting.
After reaching the ce and changing her clothes, Sophia began warming up and focused on the
competitionter.
The match was between the School of Economics and Business Administration and the School of
Financial Management.
Since the School of Financial Management was full of rich, good-looking people, they had more fans in
comparison to the School of Economics and Business Administration.
Richard was here too. When he reached the court, he walked to Sophia while smiling politely. “Sophia,
I’m here to support you.”
He thought he was treating Sophia generously and kindly since he purposely didn’t bring X along with
him. In response, Sophia smiled, but she was cut short from her speech because somebody suddenly
put his hand on her shoulder, and a deep voice could be heard behind her.
“Thank you!” Stanley showed up and held Sophia’s shoulder as he said mockingly, “Sophia has enough
cheerleaders for today, so I don’t think she’ll need her ex. You’re an eyesore.”
His words made Sophia roll her eyes because she had no idea why Stanley kept treating her ex meanly.
For her, she had always chosen to ignore the Harpers to prevent them from having the idea that she
wanted to rely on them.
In contrast to Richard, who was alone, there were a lot of men standing behind Stanley now. Aside from
Nathan, Gary, and Hale, there were also a few men whom Sophia did not recognize, and even a few
Caucasians.
“Sophia,e here! Let me introduce them to you.” Deliberately, Stanley started introducing his friends
before Richard.
“Here’s my eldest disciple, Kevin. He’s the youngest prince of the British monarchy and the eighth in line
to the throne.”
Then, he turned to another guy. “This is my second disciple, Wilhelm. He’s from the Swedish royal
family.”
Pointing to yet another guy, he said, “He’s my friend, Shiloh, and he’s the heir of thergest tribe in
Africa.”
As the humiliated Stanley was provoked, he asked his friends toe here to put Richard to shame.
Bayside University was nevercking international students because a lot of politicians and sessful
entrepreneurs sent their children here. Although Richard had thought about gaining their support, he had
no ways to approach them.
Little did he know that Stanley could casually ask so many of them out.
It was also out of his expectation that Stanley was really famous by being an esports yer. Esports did
not only make him be famous worldwide and the worthiest gamer in Cethos, it also gave him the
opportunity to know a lot of royalty and politicians.
Nheless, he was still a gamer no matter how arrogant he was!
Richard was quiet and his expression darkened.
Meanwhile, Stanley was ring at him disdainfully.

Even though Nathan was in the gang, the average of their height was still around 180 cm. Hence, if they
really went into a fight with Richard, they would undoubtedly be the winner because Richard was only by
himself.
Sophia was the one who broke the tension. “Okay. Just go and find yourselves seats.”
Richard turned around and left with a foul expression. Then, Stanley was finally willing to bring his
friends to look for seats.
During the match between the School of Computer Science and the School of Financial Management
last time, they would have lost due to Richard’s tricks if Michael had note to their rescue. Hence,
Stanley brought his gang of friends over on this day to prevent the School of Economics and Business
Administration from being fooled as well.
Aside from giving Sophia support, they were also here to stop those from the School of Financial
Management from ying dirty tricks.
As giving out money had been the mostmon trick used by those from the School of Financial
Management, the female basketball team had indeed used this trick on the School of Economics and
Business Management before the match.
One day before the match, Sophia received an anonymous text message about giving her 100 thousand
if she would quit the match. She justughed it off.
On this day, the yers from the School of Economics and Business Administration were in their best
state and they were gaining points effortlessly. As their points kept going up, people from the School of
Financial Management became anxious and kept sending out messages to them, offering them more
money than before.
However, Stanley, who was in the spectators’ seat, suddenly shouted, “To the beautifuldies in the
School of Economics and Business Administration’s basketball team, let’s go for a meal once you all win!
Just order anything you want because my friend will pay for the bill!”
At once, every girl around became excited, especially the girls from the School of Economics and
Business Administration’s basketball team.
They did not care about what they would be eating; the key issue here was who they would be having
dinner with.
As long as they could have dinner with their prince, money would not be an issue for them.
Hence, no matter how hard the School of Financial Management tried now, no people would ept their
offer anymore.
The winner of the match was obvious now.
As Sophia’s opponents were too weak, she was running around and putting in goals without putting in
much effort. She even wanted to yawn because her opponents simply couldn’tpare to her skills
without the support of money they were given. Hence, she just let her other team members show off their
skills, as a few princes were looking at them now.
When she looked at the spectatorszily, she suddenly found a man in a ck down coat sitting in a
corner. With a huge scarf around his neck, he was looking at Sophia smilingly.
Although he was wearing a ck cap and had put his hair down to cover half of his face, Sophia still
recognized him at a nce—Michael was here!
Hence, Sophia suddenly becamepetitive once again. She ran in front of her team and started
snatching the ball and putting in goals. In the end, she even managed to make two consecutive three-
pointers.
The match ended after the blow of a whistle. The School of Financial Management was totally defeated,
making them go to the restroom in distress.
Nathan happily brought a bottle of water to Sophia after she had left the court. When Sophia was
drinking the water, she kept sneaking nces at Michael’s direction and realized that he had
disappeared.
Did he leave?
At once, Sophia became sad, and she even found the mineral water that she was drinking bitter.
