Lucas' Movements

Jaden had already noticed the moment that somebody snapped a picture of them. But nevertheless, he did not say anything about it. It was just a photo, and it was not as if he did not understand how campus worked.

It might be true that this was the first time that he was in the campus, but even then, he had already heard several rumors about how campus life was. So, he understood that this guy was quite curious about what he was doing with Scarlet.

With his sharp senses, he had been able to hear the murmuring within the group, and he understood the reputation that Scarlet possessed within the school. So of course, he understood that this was definitely going to make quite a huge topic.

As for the matter concerning Lucas, Jaden did not really care about it. If that guy tried to cause him trouble, he would definitely make sure that he paid for it. After all, Jaden would definitely not accept having somebody provoking him continuously.

At the same time, he finally understood the reason why that guy looked like he didn't like him at all. It seemed that the reason behind that was simply because the guy was obsessed with Scarlet. But because he could not defeat Scarlet, it was impossible for him to be together with Scarlet.

But even then, the guy had never given up on being together with Scarlet. It might be true that he didn't mention anything about the two of them being together, nevertheless, he would always make sure that anybody that had any thoughts about Scarlet would be dealt with thoroughly.

Even after knowing about that, Jaden did not really care. In any case, it was not as if he was romantically interested with Scarlet. To say the truth, he did not like the personality that she possessed.

She was quite stubborn, completely different from what he wanted from a girl. Additionally, he was not even thinking about being in a relationship, considering the life that he had been living for the past few years.

To him, as long as he completed the task that he had been given, he would definitely leave. In case an opportunity arose today, he would definitely take it. But it was definitely impossible for him to leave today, unless he completed the mission of being Scarlet's bodyguard for a week.

The two of them continued training, with Jaden imitating Alfie while fighting with Scarlet. Jaden was also amazed by Scarlet's ability to learn. After just telling her about what she was supposed to focus on, she had actually caught on it, and was working to improve it.

Additionally, it seemed that she was using her own methods in order to make sure that he was more comfortable with the way that she acted. This was something that Jaden approved of her. At the same time, he understood that this was definitely the reason why she was able to gain the black belt in taekwondo.

As time went by, Jaden noticed that the number of people within the gym kept on increasing. The number of people inside the gym was extremely high in such a way that even the equipment within the gym was not going to be enough to be able to serve all the people that had come to the gym.

Of course Jaden understood that these people did not come here because they wanted to practice, but instead, they just came here to watch a show. After all, the outfit that they were currently wearing was definitely completely different from what was supposed to be worn within the gym.

Through the chattering of the crowd, Jaden came to understand that they had been attracted over by the post that had been posted on the forum. Jaden immediately related it to the person who had snapped the picture of them within the ring.

Even then, Jaden did not care about the crowd. Instead, he simply focused on sparring with Scarlet. Scarlet had also noticed the crowd that had congregated here, but she did not pay them any attention at all.

Currently, she was getting more adapted in what Jaden had taught her. But even then, she realized that despite the fact that she had utilized all the weaknesses that Jaden had pointed out, she was not capable of dealing with Jaden at all.

It might be true that Jaden was imitating Alfie, that did not imply that he would imitate Alfie being beaten, right? So, of course, he would definitely not allow Scarlet to beat him up. So, without Scarlet knowing about it, Jaden had changed slightly the way that he fought, making it a little difficult for Scarlet to be able to deal with him.

Scarlet was already sweating, but she did not stop at all. Instead, she continued attacking, with the intention of taking Jaden down. She was breathing heavily, due to all the rapid movements that she had been making.

But even then, she was not willing to give up. She felt that her body was extremely tired, but she kept on attacking, feeling that she had to deal with Jaden at the end of it all. At this moment, she had already forgotten about the fact that she was sparring with Jaden so that she could deal with Alfie. That was something that was pushing her to continue attacking.

Jaden on the other hand was not sweating at all, and neither was his breathing hurried. He handled everything calmly, and with quite ease.

He currently understood that there was a chance for Scarlet to be able to break through the limit that she was previously having. So, he let her continue, while slowly, increasing the difficulty of the fight between the two of them. At some point in time, the speed at which he was attacking her had increased.

Scarlet had not even noticed that, but even then, she continued fighting. She was a person with a strong personality, and right now, he was only having a single determination in her mind, to defeat Jaden.

Within the crowd, Lucas was watching the battle between the two of them in the ring. At this point, he finally understood the reason why Scarlet had asked him to make arrangements so that Jaden could fight with Alfie.

He had already suspected that Jaden was skilled, but he had never expected that he was this skilled. Looking at the way that he was fighting with Scarlet, it was very clear that he was able to handle the situation quite easily.

Completely different from the crowd, he possessed the knowledge that the two of them were actually sparring with each other. They were not fighting because of anything, but instead, it seemed that Jaden was the one that was training Scarlet.

Just looking at the way that Jaden was fighting, it was extremely the same with the way that Alfie fought. At this moment, he understood that Jaden was teaching Scarlet a method of dealing with Alfie.

Although he was happy that Scarlet was going to get an opportunity of dealing with Alfie personally, but even then, he was definitely not happy about the fact that it was Jaden who was teaching her.

Despite the fact that there was no contact between the two of them as they kept on fighting other than the instances that they blocked each other's attack, that was something that still irritated Lucas.

He was angry, but even then, he did not make any movements, and continued standing there, watching the two of them fighting. He understood that it was impossible for him to make a move right now.

It was clear that Scarlet was the one who had led to the two of them fighting with each other, considering that they were currently fighting within a ring.

After observing for a few minutes, Lucas turned around and left the gym. He could not continue watching the two of them anymore. At this moment, he was having a plan of his own in his mind.

The crowd on the other hand that have been expecting that Lucas was going to make a scene in this situation were completely dumbfounded when Lucas simply turned around and left without saying anything.

For a moment, silence dominated the area. Then, a few people began whispering to each other, hoping that Lucas would not be able to hear them. Well, it was impossible for him to be able to hear, considering that he had already left the gym. But in any case, his lackeys were all over campus.

"Do you think that Lucas is afraid of that guy?"

"What do you think? I don't think so. I do think that Lucas is making plans of his own, and will handle this guy later on."

"That's right. Lucas is kind of sinister. He will definitely not let this matter go like that. He will never allow any person to be together with Scarlet other than himself."

"In any case, he is not stronger than Scarlet, and so, Scarlet will definitely not accept him. But he can easily handle this guy, right?"

"If you are talking about personally handling this guy, that is an impossibility."

"Of course, I'm not talking about that, instead, I am simply saying about using underhanded methods. Lucas is quite wealthy, and so, it is not difficult for him to be able to hire a group of crooks to deal with this guy."

"Shhh! Talk at your own risk. If this piece of information reaches Lucas, you would definitely be punished for that."

The chattering went on, but the battle in the ring came to an end. Scarlet could not hold on anymore, and she finally stopped and sat in the corner of the ring. At this moment, she believed that it was impossible for her to be able to deal with Jaden.
