Chapter 236
“I’ll try my best!” Emmanuel smiled at Claudette. His bronzed skin and
reassuring smile were exceptionally attractive in her eyes, so she took the
initiative to hold his hand gently.
Since Emmanuel thought of her as his friend, he held her hand without
hesitation and continued to track forward.
Bang! Bang!
!
He was a real soldier that had been to war, so his keen senses were
incomparable to those who enjoyed laser tag. So, before Claudette had a
chance to register what was happening, he fired two consecutive shots and
took out two men from the other team.
That maneuver not only shocked Claudette, but it also evoked screams from
the female players from their opposing team.

“Oh, God. He’s such an excellent marksman!”
“I know, right? It’s no wonder why the pretty ladies wanted to be on his team. I
thought it was because he looked handsome. Who would have known he is a
pro at laser tag!”
“Sobs, I should have joined his team when I had the chance!”
“I guess we’re easy targets now.”
While the two women complained, they were ousted from the game without
a chance to resist.
Meanwhile, Claudette liked but loathed how Emmanuel always kept his
distance from women. Firstly, she admired men like that, and secondly, she
was afraid he might keep his distance from her, as she was also a woman.
Such a man was like a double–edged sword. She envied whoever would
become his wife!
“Dr. Lowe, you’re amazing! We will definitely come out as winners with you on
our team!”
Looking at the admiration in her eyes, Emmanuel did not think much of it
because, to him, beating a couple of students was a piece of cake for the
Northern Region’s Best Marksman. Therefore, there was nothing for him to be
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtproud of. However, his low–key behavior attracted Claudette even more as
she thought he had a mature charm.
Meanwhile, news of Emmanuel’s heroic performance had been spread
throughout the battlefield. Following the increasing number of people he
ousted from the competition, the rest felt they must work together to take out
Emmanuel for them to have a chance at winning!
Therefore, the number of people trying to ambush Emmanuel and Claudette
gradually increased, but Emmanuel managed to overturn the situation and
oust them all!
“Ms. Lenoir, watch out!”
Suddenly, someone tried to tag Claudette from behind. Emmanuel couldn’t
care less about anything and conditionally reacted by pushing her to the
ground before rolling away.
While rolling away, he fired his gun at the two opponents who tried to
ambush them, ending their time in the game!

That’s awesome! Claudette rolled on the ground with Emmanuel’s arm
around her and ended up under him, but she did not feel uncomfortable.
Instead, she felt rather excited and could even hear her heart pounding
inside her chest, wanting to lay in the man’s arms for the whole day! No, she
wanted to stay in his embrace for the entire year! Even better, for the rest of
her life!
“Ms. Lenoir, are you alright?”
After dealing with their enemies, Emmanuel got up and reached out his hand
toward Claudette, wanting to help her to her feet.
However, she stared intently at the man’s face, feeling her world spinning,
and she even saw dreamy hearts floating around! How can this man be so
captivating? What’s more detestable is that he seems to have no idea how
attractive he is! No wonder a misandrist such as Mackenzie would also fall for
him!
After he saw her looking at him with wide eyes but did not move, Emmanuel
felt his heart skip a beat. This is bad! Have I been too focused on the game
and accidentally hurt Ms. Lenoir’s head by squashing her?
“Ms. Lenoir, can you hear me?”
He nervously leaned closer while waving his hand before her face. However,
the closer he came, the quicker Claudette’s heart pounded! Her bust rose
and fell irregularly, and her mind went blank. The scene before her made her
start to fantasize about something. Is Dr. Lowe going to kiss me?
If it had been another man, she would not be willing to give up her first kiss,
which she had kept for over 20 years. But now, she felt excited and even
closed her eyes, blushing as she waited for him to kiss her.
When Emmanuel saw her suddenly closing her eyes, he became even more
frightened! He could not figure out what was happening and wondered if
there was really something wrong with her. Although he had treated many
people, he had never seen anyone with the symptoms Claudette was
currently showing. Her complexion was perfectly healthy, but she behaved
like something was wrong with her mentality.
“Ms. Lenoir, are you okay?”
Emmanuel called out to her again but still received no response, which
shocked him so much that he immediately picked her up.
Meanwhile, Claudette hadn’t expected things would turn out like this! She
now understood that the man would continue to interact with her if she did.
not respond, so she pretended to be mute.
While nervously checking out their surroundings, Emmanuel searched for a
shady area where he could set the lady down and check up on her. He was
unsure whether she was suddenly dizzy from the heat or something strange
was happening to her.
“Hey, look!” That scene just happened to fall into Elizabeth’s sight, and she
quickly dragged Beatrix over to watch.
“My goodness! This is too much, isn’t it? What are they trying to do?”
When Beatrix saw that scene, she immediately took out her phone to take a
video. She did not expect her brother–in–law to be such a sc*mbag. Did he
fall for Claudette after she flirted with him a few times? This is awesome-
ahem! I mean, he’s so shameless!
After bringing Claudette to a spot under a shady tree, Emmanuel asked, “Ms.
Lenoir, we can forfeit if you’re unwell. How about I bring you home to rest?”
At that, Claudette instantly sat up straight. It happened so quickly that the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmman could not react in time, and the two almost kissed. The atmosphere
instantly grew intense when their eyes met, and Claudette could feel her
heart nearly leap out of her chest!
She remembered Laura used to say that when a man and a woman looked
into each other’s eyes at a close distance, their attraction toward each other
would increase tenfold! Her aunt also said that men were more active
beings. During situations like this, even if the man disliked the woman or
thought the woman looked ordinary, he would not be able to resist kissing
the woman before him due to the surging of hormones.
Kiss me, Dr. Lowe! I’m ready! Claudette gulped.
If Laura were right, Emmanuel would not be able to resist himself and kiss her.
After all, not only did Claudette look pretty, but she was also publicly
recognized as the most beautiful woman!
However, she would never have guessed that not only did Emmanuel not kiss
her, but he also looked relieved, which starkly contrasted her nervousness!
“Ms. Lenoir, thank goodness you’re fine! I thought I crushed you. That’s a
responsibility I can’t afford to take up!” he teased.
Claudette smiled when she heard that, but her smile seemed slightly bitter.
She was hoping to get crushed; that way, she could have pestered him
forever. However, she was not a bad person, so she would not pretend to be
hurt.
Once her smile faded, a complicated emotion filled her eyes! She enjoyed
the feeling she had just now, which would become the most treasured
memory in her 26 years of living. Falling in love was indeed an event in which
one would release the most dopamine!
Claudette decided not to disappoint herself and be bolder than ever, so she
tugged on Emmanuel’s hand and urged, “Dr. Lowe, why don’t we continue the
game? You must lead me to victory!”
“Sure, I’ll try my best!”
The insensitive Emmanuel did not understand the meaning behind her words
and simply thought she was excited to play the game.
Since there should be lesser opponents at this point in the game, he wanted
to end the battle as soon as possible so that they could become the winners!
