Chapter 1064 He Is So Handsome
In the chaotic arcade, Bert wasn't interested and couldn't bring himself to play. On the other hand, Alivia patiently
accompanied Lucas throughout. They stood in front of the basketball machine, with Lucas' head just about half a
head taller than the machine. Alivia put three pieces of game coins in, and the barrier blocking the basketballs rose.
Round basketballs kept dropping to their side, and they picked them up and threw them forward continuously.
Unfortunately, their shooting wasn't accurate, and most of the balls were missed. They didn't make many shots in
total.
Lucas felt unsatisfied and decided to play two more rounds. This time, the number of successful shots improved,
but Alivia ended up sweating a lot.
Bert had been standing by, watching, and indifferently said, "Your skills are too poor."
Lucas and Alivia were speechless.

them with a haughty expression.
Alivia didn't dare say anything, but Lucas wasn't going to hold back. He raised an eyebrow and defiantly declared,
"Humph, Mr. Harper, why don't you give it a try? Maybe you won't score as much as Ms. Graves and me!"
Well said!
Alivia silently cheered for Lucas in her heart.
She had thought that Bert wouldn't pay any attention to his challenge, but to her surprise, he walked straight over
and glanced at the basketballs, "What if I win?"
"Then I'll grant you a request!"
"Deal," Bert turned to Alivia and opened his palm.
"What?"
"Game coins."
Is he really going to play?
Alivia somewhat hesitantly took three pieces of game coins out of the bag and dropped them into the machine.
With a clattering sound, the barrier opened, and the basketballs rolled down again.
Bert quickly picked one up, holding it with one hand while supporting its surface with the other. With a slight flick of
his wrist, the ball flew straight ahead like he had calculated the distance perfectly, making a beautiful swish as it
went through the hoop in a parabolic trajectory.
A perfect hollow shot.
But could it be just a lucky shot?
Before she could finish that thought, another precise and accurate shot followed. Alivia watched as the score on the
screen rapidly surpassed hers, and the game wasn't even halfway through.
Bert stood at around six feet tall, with a well-built physique. Watching him throw the basketball with such ease was
captivating, not to mention his strong and handsome features. Soon, a crowd began to gather around the game

Two minutes later, the game ended, and Lucas couldn't help but applaud, "Mr. Harper, you're amazing!"
Even though it was just a game, Alivia couldn't help but think that Bert looked particularly handsome during the
match, even more so than when he held a gun or a file...
Bert bent down and affectionately patted Lucas's head, "Don't forget the promise you made to me. When I've
figured it out, I'll let you know."
Lucas suddenly remembered his earlier promise and, although somewhat unwillingly, he nodded, "Got it."
Satisfied, Bert withdrew his hand and stood up, intending to take Lucas to play other games. But he noticed Alivia
staring at him intently. He arched an eyebrow and took a step closer, calling her, "Alivia?"
Startled by being addressed, Alivia snapped back to reality, blinking her eyes, "What?"
Seeing her absent-minded, Bert frowned slightly, "What are you thinking? Let's go."
"Oh."
Carrying the game coins like a steward, Alivia silently followed Bert and Lucas. Regretting her momentary lapse of
composure, she lightly tapped her forehead with the coin bag.
Calm down. It was just shooting some basketballs. Why was my heart racing so fast?
