YM778.TV Chapter 194 The Competition Began
Alice and Thomas were astounded by Mrs. Miller\'s statement. But they still believed that Lillie would not do that kind of thing.
"Mrs. Miller, maybe you were mistaken or there\'s just a misunderstanding here. I believe Lillie is not someone who will do that," Alice defended Zhen-Zhen right away.
"Our Lillie is a good person. She\'s pure and innocent. She won\'t do something like that," Thomas also sided with his wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Miller let out a peal of humorless laughter. They were annoyed by the fact this husband and wife still had the guts to defend their daughter.
"Hmm, it\'s okay if you don\'t want to believe me. I guess your daughter is a good actress. Even you, her parents, didn\'t have any idea about the sin she committed against my daughter," Mrs. Miller continued to attack them with her sharp tongue.
"My daughter\'s life was also put in danger because of your daughter\'s pet. But since she\'s Tristan\'s wife, we just let it off. We could have sued her but we didn\'t," She added.
"Lillie would not harm anyone. I guess this is just a misunderstanding, Mr. and Mrs. Miller. But don\'t worry, we will try to talk to our daughter regarding this," Alice said as she didn\'t want to prolong this conversation.
Mr. Miller held his wife\'s shoulder, telling her to stop as well. The elders of the Davis Family were just nearby. He didn\'t want her to make a scene here.
"Honey, stop it already. This is not the proper time and proper place to confront them," Mr. Miller reminded his wife.
Mrs. Miller stole a glance at the elders and just nodded in agreement. She just felt frustrated, that\'s why she failed to control herself from venting out her irritation towards the Meyer Family.
To change the topic and lessen the heavy tension in the air, Mr. Miller spoke to them regarding the competition instead.
"Oh, do you still want to make a bet with us? Forget about my wife\'s proposal. She\'s just on her period now that\'s why she\'s spouting things.
"Sorry Mr. Miller, we can\'t do the bet. Please find someone else," Thomas said, politely rejecting them.
Mr. Miller just shrugged at them before pulling his wife away from them. He was afraid that his wife would not be able to restrain herself and rant at them.
If the elders would find out then they might misunderstand their intention. So they just talked to other members of the Davis Family, leaving Alice and Thomas on their current spot.
When the husband and wife were now left alone. Alice turned to Thomas with her worried expression.
"What should we do? I don\'t think Lillie would do that."
Thomas took a deep breath and gave her a reassuring smile.
"Don\'t overthink. Trust Lillie and Tristan. Don\'t let yourself be affected by their words. We know Lillie. She\'s a good person," Thomas consoled his worried wife.
"Come on, cheer up! We need to support their team!" Thomas added.
With that, Alice finally smiled and glanced in the direction of Lillie\'s team. The game was about to start.
The first event was target shooting. If someone hit the bullseye, 10 points would automatically get by his or her team. Different areas in the target had corresponding points. 10 was the highest and 1 was the lowest.
The shooting range was also prepared as well as the guns, bullets, earpieces, and other items they would be needing in this activity.
All men and women in the Davis Family were taught how to handle and use firearms. So only Lillie and Hannah were inexperienced about this gunplay.
Between them, Hannah had already experienced practice shooting together with Andrew before. So looking at the current situation, the Red team appeared to be at a disadvantage right now because of Lillie.
Other teams were confident that they won\'t be the one who would come to the last place in this game.
"Lillie, have you experience holding a gun before?" Jake asked her.
Zhen-Zhen shook her head as a response.
Jake scratched his face after getting her answer.
"Don\'t worry, Lillie. Leave this to us," Blake reassured her.
But Jake\'s blabbering mouth couldn\'t help but make a side comment.
"I think we are going to end up in the last place in this category. Hehehe."
"I\'m sorry, guys. But I will do my best." Zhen-Zhen said with her apologetic look.
Tristan and Blake immediately shot him a threatening look. Jake kept his mouth shut after noticing the deathly glares of Tristan and Blake.
"Wifey, I know you can do it. I will teach you. Besides, your lucky charm is here! Don\'t be pressured. Just enjoy the game." Tristan comforted Lillie, cupping her face using both hands.
"Oh, my poor eyes!" Jake complained.
"Ahem, are you planning to feed us dog food here, dear cousin?" Blake also said, raising his eyebrow.
Tristan just chuckled and ignored their complaints. He even hooked his arms around Zhen-Zhen, hugging her from behind. He was intentionally making the twins jealous.
Soon, Matthew called the attention of all teams. The competition just began. The first shooters from each team went to their respective position.
Everyone was interested about who would perform well between the Blue and Red Team.
To compare the Blue and the Red Team, their shooters were arranged like this:
First Shooter: Jake for Red, Mark for Blue
Second Shooter: Blake for Red, Daniel for Blue
Third Shooter: Tristan for Red, Andrew for Blue
Fourth Shooter: Zhen-Zhen for Red, Hannah for Blue
After the three rounds, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd shooters were all done. Each team got these accumulated points.
Green Team: 10, 9, 10 = 29
Yellow Team: 10, 10, 9 = 29
Blue Team: 9, 9, 10= 28
Red Team: 9, 9, 10= 28
The last shooter would be the deciding factor who would win in this game. Now, it was their turn to shoot the target.
Jake and Blake were nervous. If they become last in this category then it would be impossible for their team to win first place. They wanted to get the gold membership card and the sports car.
"Lillie! Do your best! Please hit the lucky number 9!" Jake said with his pleading eyes.
Blake could only facepalm because of his twin brother\'s desperation. Seriously? He was begging Lillie to hit 9 points even though she had no experience holding a gun.
As far as he remembered, the first time he and Jake held a gun and shot at the target range, they only scored 7 points and 5 points.
Blake patted his twin brother\'s back while shaking his head helplessly.
"Dear Brother, you are asking Lillie too much. Just accept whatever will be the result. Besides, Tristan is the CEO of Heavenly Star Enterprise. You can just request Lillie to ask Tristan and give you a Gold Membership Card."
"Oh, that\'s a bright idea brother! Thanks a lot!" Jake said cheerfully.
"Hey, hey, I could still hear you. Ahuh? Planning to use my wife for your benefits? I won\'t let you do that! Besides, only the Chairman can give that card to anyone." Tristan reacted exasperatedly.
Zhen-Zhen could only laugh at them. Then Tristan spoke up once again.
"Have faith in my wife. I bet she can even hit the 10!" Tristan declared to them with confidence.
