Chapter 312 No Way Out
Andrew stumbled, catching everyone’s attention.
The referee hurried over to assist him, asking, “Are you alright? Can you continue the competition?”
Though Andrew felt a bit sore from the fall, he said, “I’m fine; let’s continue the competition.”
It would be too embarrassing for him to quit now.
Also, he had promised Jo that he would protect her.
He intended to keep his word, especially considering the hostile glances Simone and Tina had directed
at Jo earlier, indicating potential retaliation in the upcoming matches.
Jodie also rode over on a horse, expressing concern for Andrew.
She pretended to ask, “Andrew, do you need a break?”
Of course, she didn’t want Andrew to rest.
Andrew stood up and smiled, saying, “I’m fine; I can still continue the competition. I promised to protect
you, and I will definitely do it.”
Jodie looked at Andrew with gratitude, “Andrew, you’re so kind.”
The audience in the stands couldn’t hear their conversation, but the viewers in the live broadcast room
caught it through the drone’s live feed.
They all exclaimed, Andrew truly loves Jodie!
Titus and Luca were speechless.
Luca said, “Andrew has lost his mind again. The way Jodie smiles gives me a somewhat uneasy
feeling. Is she going to cause trouble again?”
Before Luca saw through Jodie’s, actions, Luca would believe the way she treated Tina wasn’t
intentional. But now, he was sure Jodie deliberately made a move.
How has she become more and more unrecognizable?”
Titus raised an eyebrow. “Maybe she was always like this. Only now does she reveal her true colors bit
by bit. Haven’t you noticed? Since she started playing today, she has stopped pretending
1/5
The previous Jodie would never have made such strong remarks against Simone and the others during
the live broadcast.
She would never have intentionally attacked Tina in public. It could only mean that she must have
realized that there were too many criticisms online, and her chances of redeeming her reputation were
slim.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, she decided to let herself go.
Luca nodded. I’ve noticed. Not only has she become more assertive, but she has also shown a fierce
side. The foolish Andrew, I don’t think there is anything wrong with him stepping on the stirrup, but he
slipped and fell. I have a feeling that he’s about to have a streak of bad luck!”
Because he had experienced his own share of misfortune, Luca could relate to this kind of situation.
Titus shared the same thought. “Definitely, no doubt about it. I just wonder how unlucky he’s going to
get.”
It seemed that the foolish Andrew was solely focused on protecting Jodie and hadn’t realized the
misfortune that had befallen him.
Titus asked in confusion, “Isn’t he wearing the mystical tool bracelet? How did he start having bad luck
again?”
Luca was equally puzzled. “I wonder, too.”
Titus said, “Let’s keep watching.”
As the polo match continued, Simone took the initiative with Tina to go for the ball. Their cooperation
was extremely tacit.
After snatching the ball, they passed it to Zac or Bailey, both of whom scored every time they got the
ball.
As a result, Simone’s team remained in the lead.
Not only were Simone and Tina in sync on the field, but they also had the same mindset.
They didn’t actively target Jodie. They followed the polo rules and maintained their sportsmanship.
ecause they knew Jodie couldn’t wait and would come to them willingly.
Indeed, Jodie had been thinking this way, but she hadn’t found the opportunity yet
In the blink of an eye, the first half ended.
Simone’s team was in the lead.
After a fifteen-minute break, the second half began with the teams switching sides.
Jodie said to Andrew, “Andrew, let’s be more proactive in going for the ball, or else we’ll lose.”
She noticed that Andrew had been hesitant when playing against Simone.
She guessed that Andrew was trying to go easy on Simone, which annoyed her. Since he had chosen
her, he shouldn’t hold back against Simone.
However, she wouldn’t say it out loud; she would find other ways to force Andrew to deal with Simone.
Andrew thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright!”
Although he didn’t want to target Simone, they needed to win this match to prove themselves.
And he had to protect Jo.
So, in the second half, Andrew constantly circled around Jodie on his broomstick.
Upon seeing this, Simone felt like praying for Andrew.
It appears that Sc*mbag No. 4 believes that absorbing bad luck alone isn’t sufficient; he insists on
serving as a shield for Jodie from such a close distance.
Next, Jodie started targeting Simone.
She used various sneaky tactics, but Simone evaded them and counterattacked.
However, every time she counterattacked, Andrew suffered the misfortune.
For example, when both sides went for the ball, Simone counterattacked Jodie.
She sent the ball flying toward Jodie’s face at an unexpected angle, as if by accident.
From a rule perspective, she hadn’t committed a foul.
And when the ball came toward Jodie, her horse would suddenly leap out just enough to dodge the
incoming ball. This was because she had absorbed Andrew’s luck.
With her absorbing his bad luck and Andrew protecting her on the side, there was no way he could
escape.
O
3/5
A ball hit him in the face, causing him to scream in pain.
Then half of his face swelled
1.
After applying the medicine mist, he continued to persevere.
And then he kept getting injured.
Either a ball hit his face or body, or he was accidentally struck by someone’s golf club.
His face, arms, and legs were all swollen.
Because the game was about to end, he gritted his teeth and persisted.
Then, Jodie used the same method to deal with Simone as she did with Tina.
Simone increased her strength, and not only did she not get hit, but she also fought back in the same
way.
The golf club she extended was bounced back.
Jodie’s hand went numb from the shock; she didn’t expect Simone to be so strong.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe tried to move the golf club, but her arm was weakened by the previous shock.
So, the golf club fell on her own horse’s leg..
The horse, in pain and startled, threw Jodie off.
But luckily, Andrew was right next to her.
As she was thrown off the horse, Andrew rode his horse alongside her and reached out to forcefully
pull her into his arms.
Jodie didn’t fall to the ground; instead, she mounted Andrew’s horse.
As she sat on the horse, Andrew, unfortunately, couldn’t maintain his balance and fell off.
Fortunately, the horse wasn’t moving fast at that moment. So, when he fell off, he only sustained some
cuts on his face and hands and wasn’t seriously injured.
Jodie naturally understood why Andrew fell off the horse.
He was protecting her from the disaster.
She quickly dismounted and anxiously helped Andrew to his feet.
O
“Andrew, are you okay?”
Andrew’s whole body was in pain, especially his face and hands were burning. He replied, I’m a little
sore all over.”
Jodie glanced at the time remaining in the game. “Andrew, there are only a few minutes left. I’ll ride
with you on one horse; let’s try to catch up with them and aim for overtime.”
They were still behind by several points, but there was still hope of catching up.
And even if they couldn’t win the game in the end. She had to find a way to deal with Simone, get her
injured, and quit the variety show.
Andrew had originally intended to take a break. But upon hearing what she said, he could only grit his
teeth and say, “Okay, let’s persevere and work hard for a few more minutes.”
Simone, who was not far away, witnessed the aura between Andrew and Jodic gradually merging.
The beads on the bracelet he was wearing on his hand began to crack two-thirds of the way.
Although he had been unlucky before, he only suffered minor injuries, which were prevented by this
bracelet.
Now, it was evident that the mystical tool couldn’t hold on much longer, and if he continued to
experience misfortune, he would be in serious trouble.
Simone saw Jodie mounting the horse and reached out to help Andrew onto the horse to sit behind her.
Based on the situation just now, Sc*mbag No. 4 could easily request a break.
This way, accidents on the polo field could also be avoided, and the last few beads on the bracelet
could help relieve some pressure.
But now, Sc*mbag No. 4 was seeking his own demise, and there was nothing that could be done.
