章 99: Meeting Ethan and Abigail (3)

Alex took a deep breath and continued, "I want you to stick with us if possible during the competition."

"What?!"

And just as predicted, Julia reacted.

Alex was slightly surprised by her reaction even though he expected it. The look they received from the patrons in the cafeteria didn't help the issue either.

He looked to Ross for help, but the guy just watched silently. He was not the one who brought this suggestion.

Many times, Alex did things impromptu without giving them any prior explanation.

Julia on the other hand did not understand what Alex saw in the girl to warrant his attention like that.

She feared Alex was showing too much interest in a girl who had nothing she didn't have.

Was she not enough?

Her eyes grew slightly moist when this thought flashed in her head.

Abigail and Ethan also noticed this, and they exchanged glances with each other and saw the surprise.
