“There is a basketball competition, and the winning squad will receive $5,000. One of the teams, which my friend captains, has an injured player who is unable to compete. Will you partake?!” Liam said, blinking like a puppy who lost its way.
Liam had witnessed Jeffs professional-level basketball play once when they were friends in high school. Liam thought he should join the school team because he was that good, but Jeff gave him a glare.
Initially, Liam could not understand why Jeff was not doing what he was good at, but he soon detected the cause Jeff turned him down right away, saying, “I am sorry, I am studying for the college entrance — “What?! You are? Which College did you choose?” “All Stars University.” Liam nearly believed he misheard Jeff. Why did Jeff, a student in lower grades, decide to attend All Stars University? Even he who was among the top ten students in high school, almost flopped the school exam even though he passed the college entrance exam successfully.
“Wait… the same university in Starry City? The All Stars University I’m attending?” Liam found it hard to believe. His surprise was evident when Jeff nodded and even said, “Yes, the same All Stars University.” after he slapped his cheeks to make sure he was not dreaming. I do not have time for a tournament because I have to study.” Jeff, please give it some more thought! Though I do not doubt your abilities, All Stars University, I believe you ought to think twice.” Liam said in a low voice Why should I give it some thought? “I am going to ace both the school exam and the college entrance exam,” a serious Jeff uttered.
Nor does it appear that he was bluffing.
No matter how hard he thought about it, Liam decided that talking about All Stars University would be too inappropriate.
“Iwill be your tutor, I swear. All the books I read. I will lend them to you. Please be in the tournament” He begged.
“Why do you want me to participate if you are not going to participate? I know you can play basketball too” Jeff replied.
“Dont you need money?” Liam asked. “You can cam money. It’s not free. You need money, don’t you?” Surprised, Jeff nodded. He has not yet revealed his family to Liam. Even though he didn’t know much, but Jeff knows that his family was super rich.
“Do you know anything about the Malfoy family in Starry City?” Jeff questioned, a hint of seriousness in his voice.
“The Malfoy family? You dare to say the Malfoy Family without adding ‘powerful”” Liam said seriously. He glared at Jeff as if the latter just made a grave mistake. “They are one of the most powerful families in New Zinland, well known in the business world, the entertainment world, almost in every aspect.” Jeff looked at Liam in silence, unsure of whether to tell him about his family. Liam might not even believe it.

“Oh! Are they that powerful?” He asked.
“Of course! In Starry City, you will often hear of the Malfoy family, the Scavo Family, and Santiago Family” Liam verbalized.
“Scavo family? Jamie’s family?” Jeff questioned, surprise etched on his face.
“Yes.” “No wonder Grandmother Hemsworth didu’t argue with her.” “Wait! Aren’t we talking about the tournament?” Liam asked. You can even join the national team if you do well” After a few minutes of begging, Jeff decided to meet the team captain first.
