I Only Want You novel Chapter 50

Elizabeth Liang stood at where the line was drawn and looked at the hole before her. She felt completely overwhelmed by a wave of utter helplessness and misery.

Sir Wu looked like a serious old man, but was no less worse than James Lu when it came to messing people up!

She's always been useless at sports since she was a kid. She's never long jumped over one meter during P.E. classes. Elizabeth looked at the hole that was five meters away and felt like the distance between them was as far as the distance between heaven and hell.

She nervously gripped the club that James gave her. Although she tried her best to replicate what James had taught her just now, she still felt like she was holding it wrong.

Samuel Lee nervously clenched his fists as big drops of sweat dripped down his face.

Jesus on a boat, she was holding way more than just the fate of a ball!

Elizabeth anxiously pursed her lips and couldn't help but look over at James.

She could tell that he was nervous when he handed the club to her, although it didn't show on his face. Because she accidentally brushed against his hand, and she could feel that it was a little cold and sweaty. But now?

When James saw Elizabeth looking at him, he even gave her a smile that made her feel at ease, like the warm sunshine in spring. He said gently, "Don't be nervous, don't worry about anything, just do it however you want to, okay?"

Elizabeth nodded blankly and asked again worriedly, "I guess... I'll really swing then?"

"Sure."

Elizabeth closed her eyes with resignation, took a deep breath, and finally raised the golf club—

Swoosh—

The big and spacious golf course was eerily quiet.

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

A gentle wind brushed past her ears.

The wind was very quiet, but to Elizabeth, it sounded even more terrifying than a hurricane. The wind not only blew on her face, but it also blew on her weak and fragile heart, the gentle breeze turned into a heavy blow—

The ball, the little round ball, was very pitifully sitting right where it was!

And what flew out was just a piece of turf behind the ball that she had managed to scrape up with her club!

"Elizabeth, it's okay that you didn't hit the ball, but the turf... is really expensive." Josephine Liang covered her mouth, but her words were filled with searing mockery.

Theodore Chao couldn't stifle his giggle either. Elizabeth didn't have time to care about them at all. She looked over at James and saw the look of agony on Samuel's face.

But James smiled calmly at her. "It's okay. I can afford it even if you scrape up every inch of this turf."

Josephine's smile disappeared when she heard James, then she glared at Elizabeth.

Samuel was secretly delighted and gave his boss a standing ovation in his mind — His boss could be the most charming man in the world when he felt like it!

"Hey, just think of it as a game, go on." James continued.

Elizabeth pursed her lips and was determined to do her best this time. Although James didn't blame her, she didn't want to be his burden.

She set her pose and strongly gripped the club. She won't let anything go wrong with this shot!

The club was raised high in the air, then it fell back with great force—

Theodore frowned as he looked at the two of them, then looked at Sir Wu next to him. He pulled Josephine's arm and said, "Josephine, don't say too much."

Josephine was usually great at acting according to the occasion, but she really couldn't take it today!

The moment Elizabeth hit her feet, she could feel since she was holding his arm that Theodore was about to rush up to her! If she hadn't forcefully pulled him back, the man comforting that shameless woman would not have been James Lu.

"Am I wrong? If you can't do anything, then don't humiliate yourself in a gathering of this status!"

"Josephine!"

"I was..."

James's eyes were frighteningly dark. He glanced at Josephine and curled his lips into a faint smile. A simple movement, but it scared Josephine so badly that she suddenly went silent.

"Your foot is injured. Let's go back and have a look, okay?"

"I want to do it again. I still have one more chance, don't I?" Elizabeth blinked her teary eyes and said with determination.

She didn't want to back down, whether because of James's business or something else. Even though she completely sucked at this.

Samuel was a little sorry for her at first. After all, she was a young girl, and that was a heavy freaking blow. He admired her tough character and how she refused to accept defeat, but she literally didn't even know how to hold a golf club! If this went on, not only would she not win back anything, she'd also just lose more face.

Samuel was a little thick at times, but he knew how to speak tactfully. "Miss Liang, you're injured, how can you play like this? How about I bring you back first and do a check-up, and let Mr. Lu and Sir Wu continue playing? How does that sound?" As he said this, he tried very hard to make eyes at Elizabeth.

"Since Miss Liang is injured, let's stop this match here." Sir Wu stood as he spoke. "We'll talk about the property downtown next time."

After Sir Wu finished speaking, he turned around and got on the golf cart. Then he ordered the caddie, "Drive!"
