Chapter 1150
At the end of last year, since a very important client was crazy about shooting, she accompanied Marcus for some
shooting training.
Marcus was a real prodigy. Even though he hadn’t touched a gun in ages, all he needs was a quick refresher and he
was nailing the target, no problem.
Comelia, on the other hand, she was the one who put in the grunt work.
She had never even held a gun before. When she first started training with Marcus, her shots were way off, like a
few feet off the mark.
Cornelia could still remember the look Marcus gave her. It was like he was looking at a total moron, probably
thought she was the worst shooter he had
ever seen
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFeeling like a complete joke because of her poor shooting skills, Cornelia decided to pull herself together and put in
more effort. So she practiced on the down low. As for how well she did, the look of surprise on Marcus’ face when
he saw her shooting again said it all.
After a lot of thinking, Cornelia made her choice, “Shooting.”
Wyatt, who was driving, burst out laughing, “You probably don’t know that Brian has won a ton of shooting
competitions since he was a kid
Alexa, riding shotgun, looked a bit worried, “Nelly, are you sure you don’t want to switch to something else?”
Cornelia said, “You think I could beat him in rock climbing or sprinting?”
Wyatt said. “Probably not. Emily, don’t make it hard for Nelly, let her choose a couple more events.”
Brian looked at Cornelia, didn’t say a word, but his eyes said it all, “No matter how many more events you add,
you’re still gonna lose.”
Indeed, Cornelia didn’t have the confidence to beat him in any other events. The only shot she had was, well,
shooting. “I choose shooting”
Brian said, “Alright.”
Emily said, “Nelly, you go girl! You can totally pull off a miracle, beat Brian who’s bagged countless shooting
awards.”
Cornelia wasn’t sure if she was seeing things, but she thought she saw a hint of cunning in Emily’s innocent eyes.
Soon enough, Cornelia found out, they might have all been in on a prank against her. The place they brought her
to, was a recreational centre at the border between the Capital and other cities. This place, Cornelia had heard of it
before; it was quite exclusive, only certain people could get in. To the outsiders, it was a real mystery.
After getting off the car, she first entered a garden. Following the garden path, she saw a cluster of European-style
vintage buildings; she felt like she had travelled back a few centuries. She kept walking, and found a lawn that
seemed to stretch on forever. To the right of the lawn, there was a shooting range, with staff waiting for them.
After the bet, none of them got in touch with the place, but the staff were all ready to welcome them. So, Cornelia
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconfirmed her suspicion, these four brothers were definitely playing a trick on her.
Did they want her to lose? Did they want to make a fool of her? Or did they want to show off their authority?
No matter the reason, Cornelia told herself she absolutely couldn’t lose.
When they were getting ready, Brian’s towering figure blocked Cornelia’s way, “If you surrender now, I can let you
off.”
Cornelia gave a slight smile, “Since I was a kid, my grandma always told me that there’s no shame in losing, the
real shame is not having the courage to compete.”
Brian said, “Then don’t go crying to Augustine like a little kid after you lose.”
Cornelia replied, “You worried I’ll tell my grandpa that you guys ganged up on me?”
Brian didn’t say a word.
Cornelia, “As a real man, if you dare to do it, you should dare to own up to it. What’s there to be afraid of?”
Brian said, “You’re right, but I’ll make you cry for mercy
“Got anything else to say? See you on the field.” Cornelia walked past Brian and let the staff help her get ready for
shooting.
