Chapter 188 Who is the Champion (Additional update 9/10 for alliance leader)

"Phil, before the 100m breaststroke final, did you really trip by accident?"

On the plane, swimmer Ryan Lochte asked, looking at the bandaged knee of Phelps.

Phelps, wearing headphones and leaning on his seat, didn't want to talk. His eyes were fixed on his teammate Link Baker, who was sitting in the front row of business class. A few female athletes from the swim team were gathered around that jerk, chatting and laughing with him. They seemed particularly happy.

"Phil, tell us the truth. Did you hurt your leg on purpose because you were worried about being defeated by Link in the 100m event? If you tell me privately, I promise I won't tell anyone else."

Ryan Lochte said, removing his headphones.

Phelps turned and saw Ryan and three other teammates leaning in, eager to hear what he'd say.
