Chapter 222

The girl feigned enlightenment as she exclaimed, “Oh, so that’s how it’s done! No wonder I couldn’t get the right swing before. You’re a brilliant teacher, President Parker!”

Elijah managed a smile and let go of her wrist.

She looked down and mumbled self-deprecatingly, “Gosh, I’m so stupid. I hope I didn’t take up too much of your time.”

“It’s fine. You just need some practice, that’s all,” Elijah said politely.

He decided to leave because he didn’t want to stay and coach her any longer. However, to round out her act, the girl gasped and purposely tripped forward, stumbling right into his arms.

Elijah caught her instinctively but frowned without saying anything.

The girl blushed and said slowly, “Ugh, I’m such a klutz. Thank you for catching me, President Parker.”

He said curtly, “Seeing as you’re alright, maybe you should get on your feet.”

She reluctantly detached herself from him after hearing this.

When Elijah had walked away, the girl gripped her club and traipsed over to where her peers were gathered on the other side of the driving range.

One of them gave her a thumbs-up while praising her earnestly, “That was amazing, Miranda! I can’t believe you got President Parker to toss that woman aside just to help you out with golf.”

Miranda quirked her lips as a smug look flashed in her eyes. “Well, that was nothing. I have more tricks up my sleeve.”

“You know, I’m still a little confused as to why President Parker would want someone else’s old toy.”

“What’s so confusing about that? He probably likes a pretty face. I mean, celebrities sleep with rich and powerful men all the time. It’s practically an open secret in the entertainment industry.”
