Competition, It's More Exciting with Wins and Losses

Seeing Jacob's firm denial, a bitter taste surged unexpectedly in Jules' throat. She bit her lip tightly, suppressing the bitterness in her heart. Tears swirled in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall. Her appearance was genuinely heart-wrenching.

Cynthia sighed lightly, "How do you want to compete?"

Hearing this, Jules immediately perked up, "Let's call it a friendly competition. I've had a match with Jacob before, narrowly winning. Do you remember?"

At first glance, her words seemed harmless. However, the familiar tone hinted at a certain arrogance. She deliberately wanted to show Cynthia that her relationship with Jacob was not ordinary.

Cynthia understood Jules' intentions perfectly. Smiling gently, she patiently explained, "Jacob and I don't have the kind of relationship you're thinking of."

"Oh?" Jules raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on her lips. "I wonder what kind of relationship Miss Shannon is talking about?"
