Chapter 795
Chapter 795:
She had made countless attempts already, and it felt pointless to keep fighting against the odds.
Finally, she turned to Jarvis with a weak smile and said, “I can’t do it. I have to give up p>
Together, they walked back up the slope.
Still seething, Jarvis stormed toward Yelena, but Cayson and Austin quickly intervened to stop him.
Ignoring their restraint, Jarvis confronted Yelena furiously, saying, “Yelena, don’t you think your criticism was a bit too harsh p>
Yelena nearly laughed at Jarvis’ outrage.
“I was merely stating the truth,” she retorted. “If you’re not skilled enough, it’s wiser to take a step back and practice until you’re ready. Don’t put on a show of expertise and then play the victim when things don’t work out and people point it out. This game is about fun, and everyone here deserves a chance. Her holding up the car only takes away their opportunity p>
Though the crowd felt a twinge of sympathy for Bella, they couldn’t argue with Yelena’s logic.
The rule was clear that if you couldn’t succeed after a few tries, you stepped aside.
Everyone else was waiting eagerly for their turn, after all.
“Did you have to be so harsh?” Jarvis asked angrily.
Yelena raised an eyebrow and replied calmly, “Was I too harsh? I didn’t insult her or anything. If she’s upset, maybe she’s just too delicate for the sport p>
“Jarvis, I am at fault. This has nothing to do with my sister,” Bella played the role of the understanding one, subtly making it seem as if Yelena were the villain instead.
“She just wanted a bit of fun. It wouldn’t hurt if she tried a few more times p>
Someone suddenly joined in.
“That’s right; we don’t mind p>
Many people, moved by Bella’s seemingly pitiful appearance, quickly came to her defense.
Bella turned away, discreetly drying the tears at the corners of her eyes, portraying herself as a damsel in distress. “Thank you all for your kindness. I’m so grateful to be surrounded by such wonderful people p>
The men, flattered by Bella’s praise, felt on top of the world.
Jarvis, just as unaware of Bella’s act as everyone else, soon found himself feeling pity for her as well.
“Bella, you’re just too kind. That’s why people take advantage of you p>
“You all may not mind, but I certainly do p>
John looked around with an arrogant attitude, clearly unimpressed. “Are a few tears all it takes for you to side with her p>
“Mr. Bowen p>
After John interjected, the others didn’t dare to openly defend Bella any further.
John glanced around and announced, “If you’re all so forgiving, then step aside. Let me have a few more goes p>
The men thought John was being petty for arguing with a woman, but they kept their opinions to themselves.
