Kapitel 278: Vanguard

As the bet was proposed and agreed upon by Mary, there was a palpable tension in the air. 

Shi Tian's confidence seemed to have swayed Mary into taking the risk, given there was no harm in losing or winning either. Meanwhile, Vanessa found herself cornered by Mary's persuasive and devious tactics.

And as she was not one to back down easily, Vanessa took a deep breath and finally relented. 

"Fine, I'll accept the bet. But remember, if you fail, you owe me two favors." She said and raised her two fingers up, indicating that she was serious.

Shi Tian grinned, feeling a sense of accomplishment. 

"Deal. You won't be disappointed." He said. 

This was his chance to shine and stop being underestimated by these two women constantly. He might not have said it, but being weaker than these two was somewhat irritating to him.

He wanted to seek revenge, but if his strength wasn't even adequate enough to gain the respect of Mary and Vanessa.
