Chapter 1583 - 1584: Need a Child Bride? I Can Help You...

The ball had landed, and the dust settled.

Finley Sutherland placed his racket on the ground, his face indifferent, "You guys won."

Ryan Seys was in anguish, "Finley, you old geezer, the last ball you hit went out!!"

And it was just barely out!! It almost touched the boundary line as it went out!!

Earlier, it was clear that Iris Seys couldn’t catch the ball, and as long as it landed in bounds, they would have won. But then, this happened.

Ryan was about to explode with anger!!

Derek Brooke looked at Finley’s indifferent face, his gaze falling on the tennis ball lying on the ground, his eyes deep.

Regarding Finley’s comment about their win, Derek didn’t show much joy, but rather gave Finley a long look and asked calmly, "Why?"

"Because I want to." Those three words were uttered proudly. Finley took the water Iris Seys had drunk earlier and drank it, sitting on the ground to rest.

Iris Seys came over with a racket, smiling at the three, "Sweating through exercise feels awesome! It’s my first time winning against Finley in tennis. Brother, was I awesome just now?"

"Awesome, really awesome!" Ryan gritted his teeth looking at Finley, then turned to his sister with a forced smile, "Our Iris always has great luck, especially against Finley..."

Finley cast a cold glance over, Ryan shrugged, "Pretend I didn’t say anything."

Nobody lets someone win this blatantly, right?

Whatever, as long as Iris is happy, losing together is fine too, especially since she’s his most beloved sister.

Derek Brooke’s gaze moved between Finley and Iris, commenting, "You guys have such great relations, it’s quite an enviable friendship."

Iris sat beside Finley, laughing brightly, and tapped Finley on the shoulder with her finger, "Are you talking about me and Finley? Of course, he’s my little brother. We argue and bicker, but our relationship is still pretty good... If only Finley could be less of a busybody."

Finley paused while drinking water, moved Iris’s finger off his shoulder, and replied coldly, "Who’s your little brother!"

Iris shrugged, "You’re over three months younger than me, if you’re not my little brother, what are you? Brother, don’t you agree?"

Ryan, caught in the crossfire, let out two hollow chuckles and chose to stay silent.

Usually, being the third wheel might be fine, but now, should he jump in as the scapegoat?

He really had no desire to get involved in Iris and Finley’s issues.

Derek reached out to Ryan, "From now on at Riveredge Middle School, let’s look out for each other."

After winning, Derek didn’t show an arrogant attitude, his humility won Ryan’s favor, who then shook Derek’s hand and smiled, "From now on, at Riveredge Middle School, I’ve got your back!"

"Haha~" Iris laughed and teased, "Brother Derek, be careful or my brother might drag you into fights every day! He and Finley got famous last time for fighting over a girl! Now, everyone at Riveredge Middle School knows them."

"Hero saving the beauty?" Derek teased.

Iris nodded in agreement, a smile in her eyes.

Finley’s expression turned serious, glaring at Derek with increased hostility.

Last time, because of the fight helped by Ryan, Iris laughed at him for being a hero saving the beauty, which made him moody for several days. Now, Derek teased him again, making him feel even worse, riling up his mood.

"No way! It was just standing up for justice," Ryan blurted out.

"Want me to find out about that girl for you? Brother?" Iris laughed, her gaze falling on Finley beside her, "How about it, need a child bride? I could help you..."
