On the basketball court, Bailey darted from side to side, the basketball seemingly alive in his hands. With his 1.9-meter stature, it was a piece of cake for him to score baskets, and he was also exceptionally eye-catching among the young men.

Meanwhile, the group of girls again gathered together to gossip. “Carmen, look at that old man. Actually, he looks rather handsome after some time!”

“But he’s still too old since Carmen is still so young.”

“I think Hope is pretty good.”

“Casper is rather good, too!”

Everyone commented on the boys on the court, but Carmen’s gaze seemed to have been entirely riveted by that person. He’s truly the perfect man! She was twirling Bailey’s bracelet in her hand, so when the rest of the girls spotted the bracelet, they all passed it around in much curiosity.

“Wow! What bracelet is this? It looks really unique. Are those apricot kernels on it?”

“It looks so pretty!”

“That style of bracelet is outdated. Only my father’s generation wears it, and even my father disdains it for being old-fashioned.”

Upon seeing that they were all passing it around and even condemning it, criticizing the old-fashioned style of the bracelet and the outdated craftsmanship, Carmen snatched it back impatiently and snarled, “You all don’t know anything.”

Shelling sunflower seeds, Maisie retorted sourly, “Ah, we don’t understand. However, you know best since that’s your mother’s old son-in-law, after all.”

Her face flushing, Carmen muttered, “What nonsense are you saying? We’re just ordinary friends.” While muttering, she slipped the bracelet onto her hand and twirled it like old men were prone to do even as she kept her attention on the battle on the court.
