Chapter 103
The training field at the university’s rowing club basecamp stretched wide and flawlessly maintained. Its surface wasn’t just ordinary dirt—it was covered with a soft synthetic layer designed to minimize injuries, allowing athletes to push their limits without fear. All of it, of course, was made possible by the Turner family’s generous funding, which had transformed this place into one of the most advanced athletic facilities on campus.On the eastern side, rows of sleek rowing boats rested neatly atop a wooden dock, their polished hulls gleaming under the late-afternoon sunlight. The faint scent of river water mixed with the moist breeze, creating a refreshing yet adrenaline-pumping atmosphere.To the west stood a large, glass-walled building—the main basecamp structure and the heart of the club’s operations. Inside, coaches and committee members discussed details while holding tablets and stopwatches, closely monitoring the list of participants displayed on a massive digital screen

In the midst of tense silence, Daniel—who had already gotten back on his feet—walked over to Chloe to make his complaint.“Eric’s gone mad,” he said dramatically. “He’s jealous because I passed the administrative screening and he didn’t. He ambushed me on my way to the next test just to mess me up. He kicked me—hard—trying to injure me so I wouldn’t perform well in the physical exam. He’s completely lost his mind.”Eric’s lips curled slightly at one corner as he listened to Daniel’s ridiculous lie. He didn’t bother denying it.Meanwhile, Chloe turned toward Daniel, her sharp gaze stabbing right through him. Her jaw tightened; she was visibly angry.Daniel, noticing her expression darken, immediately shifted into his next act—pretending to look nervous and intimidated.“Miss Turner, I’m not lying,” Daniel said, voice trembling just enough to sound pitiful. “That’s exactly what happened. Eric isn’t as decent as you think he is. He’s eaten up by jealousy. Every time he sees someone doing
Chapter 101
After class ended, Eric got ready for the physical test at the university’s rowing club basecamp.According to the email he’d received the day before, the test would include push-ups, pull-ups, running, and swimming. Deep down, Eric couldn’t help but feel a spark of excitement — it was as if the “mission” his System had given him earlier had already leaked him the exam questions in advance.Now, he was walking toward the club’s basecamp after escorting Violet to the parking area.Violet had actually wanted to stay and watch him go through the test, but the information posted in the special group chat for club applicants clearly stated that the test was private. Outsiders, even friends or family, weren’t allowed to attend.“Father, I promise you... I’ll make it into this elite club and make you proud,” Eric swore silently as he caught sight of the basecamp up ahead.A faint smile curved on his lips, imagining his father standing right there at the entrance, waving proudly at him.But j

Violet’s eyes lit up the moment she read the words glowing on Eric’s phone screen. Her lips curved into a bright, uncontrollable smile. A delighted scream escaped her, followed by cheerful clapping as she celebrated her boyfriend’s success.“Wait—does this mean you’ve been accepted as a new member of the University of Grand Houston Rowing Club?” Violet asked eagerly, her voice bubbling with excitement.Eric calmly sliced a piece of steak and lifted it toward her. She accepted it with that soft, loving smile of hers before taking a bite.He replied, “Not necessarily. There are several selection stages. After the administration phase, there’s the physical test—scheduled for Monday afternoon after classes. If I pass that, there’ll still be more to go.”“Oh my God! That means you won’t have much time to rest, Eric.” Violet frowned in concern. “Let’s finish dinner quickly so you can get some rest early.”Eric chuckled lightly and offered her another bite. “Rest might recharge my body,” he

Eric stayed silent for a few moments, his sharp gaze locked on Violet’s face—until finally, a grin curved his lips, revealing a row of perfectly white, even teeth.“I wouldn’t even mind waiting until your hair turns gray,” he said casually, his tone smooth and his smile confident.Violet let out a laugh that quickly turned into tears. Relief and irritation tangled inside her chest. With a playful pout, she smacked his chest lightly. “You scared me!” she whined.Eric immediately apologized and pulled her into his arms. His hand gently brushed through her hair.“Believe me,” he murmured softly near her ear, “I’m proud to be your man. Watching you hold onto your principles only makes me admire you more.” He lifted her face, cupping her cheeks in both hands, his eyes steady and filled with affection. “No matter how long I have to wait, you’re the only woman I want to be the mother of my children.” His thumb wiped away her tears with tender precision.Violet hugged him tightly, unable to p

Eric held back a grin as he watched Violet’s adorable, anxious expression. Then, keeping his face serious, he continued speaking in a calm, steady tone.“I want to ask Violet to be my wife.”Violet’s eyes went wide again. Her hand flew up to cover her mouth, and her heart pounded so hard it felt like it was about to leap out of her chest. She bit her lip, wondering if she had misheard.But that doubt vanished the next second when she heard Eric continue speaking to David Jung.“Yes, I’m completely serious. Tomorrow, I’ll come to your house to make a formal proposal. But for now, I want to ask for your and Dr. Marry’s blessing.”Then Eric tapped the speaker button on his phone.From the other end, David Jung could be heard shouting for his wife. His excited, trembling voice narrated Eric’s intention to propose to their daughter. Moments later, Dr. Marry’s joyful shriek filled the room, followed by her enthusiastic words, granting permission without a trace of hesitation—without even as
