Chapter:418

“Why not let your mom hold it?”

With a serious expression, Elena explained, “I’m going to hug my mommy before the game starts. And if we win, Mommy will come over and lift me up. She can’t carry me if she’s holding the snack.”

Zoe was amused.

“I see how it is. You’re using me to hold your snack. I hope you don’t mind if I eat one.” Then she popped a piece into her mouth.

Of course, Elena had no objection. “You can eat as much as you want!”

Zoe smiled and ruffled Elena’s blonde hair dotingly. Then she looked at the children of the Thorn Edge Pack who were resting on the other side and said, “Those kids don’t look very healthy, and they’re nowhere near as cute as the kids of Roz Town, yet they have the audacity to look down on us!”

What Zoe said reminded me of what Caleb said about the children of the

Thorn Edge Pack-that they had been mysteriously poisoned and their health had declined, just like what happened to Dylan.

Caleb had been very busy ever since we returned, so I figured he was investigating this matter with Brian.

Angela’s Library

The half-time break soon ended. The teacher in charge of the dodgeball game whistled and announced loudly in the middle of the court, “The game shall resume!”

Wait a second. Why was this voice so familiar? I seemed to have heard of it somewhere.

I squinted at the teacher’s face.

As soon as I recognized her, I was shocked.

It was none other than Jayla, the teacher Jenifer had invited over to teach me etiquette.

What a small world!

Jayla also noticed me. Her expression darkened, but she didn’t say anything. Instead, she turned her eyes back to the court and continued to watch the game.

Beep!

With the screech of a whistle, the game finally came to an end.

The team of the Roz Town kids won.

“Roz Town is No.1! We did it!”

The children jumped up and down happily, and Elena also cheered with them.

The children of the Thorn Edge Pack, on the other hand, were dejected.

They all threw balls on the floor to vent their anger, their eyes filled with unwillingness.

Suddenly, my eyes widened.

I could see that a stray ball was flying to Elena.
