Sorry, but I'm Out of Your League Chapter 72
Joanne had burst into tears when Spencer received her call this morning. It turned out that she had been frightened by a bug in the house.She punched him. "I was scared!"All of a sudden, he recalled the time when he'd gone to find Ariana. She'd been dissecting a white rat then. Her icy gaze seemed to be devoid of any warmth as she moved her hands skillfully.Spencer snapped out of his daze. He patted Joanne's hand reassuringly when he saw the timid look in her eyes. "It's alright. I'm here."…Jacob hung up on the call at the end of the corridor outside of the private room. Then, he saw Connor.Walking over, Connor asked, "Some military affairs?"Jacob shook his head but didn't say anything. "What's the deal with Joanne? Why didn't you talk some sense into Spence when he's befuddled?"Connor smirked. "Looks like you didn't even take a look at what she looked like.""So what if she's beautiful?" Jacob continued, "There're plenty of beautiful women out there. He should settl

"Considering Jacob's personality, aren't you worried about leaving Jojo with him?" Conner asked as he watched Jacob pull her away."What's there to be worried about?" Spencer replied. "If he wants to say something, then just let him. It's not a big deal."Connor smirked. "Well, it's not a big deal to you. I'm just afraid she'll have a hard time.""There's one thing…" Frowning, Spencer trailed off.Connor found it odd when Spencer hesitated to speak. "What's so hard for you to talk about?""It's just… How do you coax a woman?" Spencer asked.Smiling, Connor replied, "So you're thinking of coaxing Jojo later because you're afraid she'll be upset?"Spencer mumbled noncommittally. "You've asked the right person. I have my way around women," Connor declared.The two of them were chatting when Spencer's phone rang. He picked it up and said a few words before he hung up."Was that a call from Jacob?" Connor asked."He told me to call Ariana over to dinner tonight," Spencer said.

"What plans could you possibly have?" Spencer's voice grew colder. "I told you we were holding a welcome dinner for Jacob. He specifically invited you.""So, should I be grateful?" Ariana asked. "Or should I get on my knees and thank him?"She had also tried to smooth things over with his friends when she first married him. But in the end, all she received was humiliation. It was clear from Connor's attitude toward her.Ariana could hardly care about Jacob now, so why would she bother with Spencer's other friends?"What's with that sarcastic tone, Ariana?" Spencer snapped. "I've already sent you a gift. What else do you want?"If it were a year ago… No. Not even a year. She couldn't even imagine herself quarreling with Spencer three months back."Nothing much," she replied. "I just find it all pointless now.""Great! Just great," he seethed. Then, he hung up on her. Although Ariana had finally stood up for herself, she still felt upset every time she confronted Spencer.She

Jensen arrived earlier to pick up Ariana when she got off work. He grumbled a few words when she told him that she would attend the dinner. "Why are you having a meal with them? They're all scoundrels!""Jacob's back," she replied."He's back?" Only then did his expression ease slightly. "Well, he's the only one who's normal."Ariana had outpatient duties in the morning and ward rounds in the afternoon. Tired, she closed her eyes. "I'm going to take a shut-eye. Wake me up when we arrive."He snorted. "You'd better unbuckle the seatbelt on your own later, lest someone take another photo."Ariana remembered the photo Connor had sneaked of her. She couldn't help but scoff coldly when she recalled the bag Spencer had gifted her.Jensen knew she had a temper. However, she would only show it in front of the people who were closest to her.He smiled as he comforted her, "It's alright. Let bygones be bygones. Don't be angry anymore."Soon, they arrived at the hotel. Jensen escorted h

Spencer couldn't voice out his grievances. There was no way he could say that Ariana had blocked his number twice.So, he let out a scoff and drank an entire glass of wine. Jacob shook his head. Then, he looked at Ariana."Could we talk in private, Ariana?" he asked.Spencer spoke up before she could react, "If you have anything to say, you can just say it here."Jacob glanced at him in surprise. Spencer hadn't reacted when Jacob told him he would be sending Joanne back in the afternoon. So, why did Spencer object now when he only wanted to speak with Ariana in private?Connor also looked over. Ariana smiled instead. "Sure. I'll wait for you outside." With that, she maneuvered her wheelchair and left. Spencer's expression darkened. Puzzled, Jacob looked at him. "What do you mean by that? Don't you trust me?"Spencer felt that Ariana had changed a lot recently. He already gave her a bag today. Joanne was clearly delighted when she received it, so why didn't Ariana re

The gathering ended on a sour note.Seeing the dark look on Ariana's face, Jacob nudged Spencer when he didn't speak up. "Why aren't you going back with Ariana?"Spencer suppressed the strange feeling in his heart. He was just about to push her wheelchair when his phone rang.He immediately became hasty when he saw the call. "Jojo?"Jacob narrowed his eyebrows as he glanced at Ariana. Sure enough, her lips had curved upward. There was a clear hint of mockery in her smile.Spencer said a few words before he hung up. Then, he pushed her wheelchair. "I'll send you home first."Ariana held down the power switch. "I wouldn't dare to trouble you, Mr. Ulrich. I'll leave you to it." He couldn't help but utter a few words of explanation, "Something's happened to Jojo…""Spence!" Jacob shouted. "What are you doing?"Spencer looked at Jacob without hesitation. "I really have something going on. I'll take my leave first. You can send her back."With that, he strode off and left. Con

So, the flowers weren't a gift from Spencer?Ariana hadn't taken a single look at it back then. She'd told Jensen to throw it straight into the trash can.She still wouldn't have accepted it, even if it was a gift from Gerald.Why would he send her flowers for nothing?Gerald asked again before she could reply, "Has your ankle gotten better? Could we have a meal together tomorrow?""Have you returned to visit your family or…" she asked."I'll be gradually shifting my work priorities back to Harvoria. I'm preparing to settle down here," he said.So, she could only reply, "Welcome back. How about this? I'll see if Sisi's free tomorrow. We'll treat you to a welcome dinner then.""Alright. Then, I'll wait for your reply."Ariana only noticed that Connor had been staring at her after she hung up."Drive carefully," she reminded him. "Who's that? He even sent you flowers. Who's Gerald? Is he someone from abroad? Why don't I know about him?" Connor questioned.Ariana found him ut

Spencer snapped out of his daze as he nodded in response.Joanne's gaze turned timid as she spoke up carefully, "D-Did I cause trouble for you, Spence? I'm so clumsy that I can't even boil water properly."He patted her shoulder reassuringly. "It's alright. You don't have to do these tasks in the future. I'll find a housekeeper for you."Joanne was delighted. However, she quickly suppressed it. She batted her eyes as she spoke up, "I don't think that's a good idea…""Your hand is injured now. You need someone to take care of you," he said.There was a hint of gratitude and admiration in her gaze. "Then, could you stay and keep me company tonight, Spence?" she asked.He subconsciously wanted to refuse her.But tears had already welled up in her eyes. "My hand hurts. I'm scared to be alone in the house.""Don't cry. I'll stay by your side," he comforted her gently.…Ariana lay wide awake at midnight as she stared at the ceiling without any sign of drowsiness.Spencer had to

Ariana lowered her gaze, her lashes hiding the emotions in her eyes. Spencer could not see them, but he imagined her expression remained as distant as ever."I just want to know if we could still be friends," he continued softly.Ariana paused for several seconds before shaking her head. Spencer's voice was strained with pain as he spoke, "I know it's an inappropriate request, but if we don't try this approach, I might not be able to stop pursuing you." "So you're saying if I don't agree to be friends, you'll keep bothering me?" Ariana finally looked at him directly. "Are you threatening me?"His words reminded her of Zane, who had used the same tactic. She wondered if all men thought this way—when pursuit failed, they would settle for friendship as a consolation prize.Spencer met her gaze. "That's not it. Ari… I'm just asking for your mercy."His eyes were bloodshot with dark circles underneath, clearly showing signs of sleepless nights. Ariana looked away, unable to bear

Jacob rubbed his temples in frustration. "I've warned you about this. She has a boyfriend now, and they have a kid. If you get involved, what does that make you? The other man?""I know…" Spencer mumbled. "But I love her and can't control these feelings." "Having control is what makes us human," Jacob said firmly. "Losing control makes us no better than animals. You're better than that.""Maybe being an animal would hurt less," Spencer muttered."If that's your attitude, then there's nothing left to discuss." Jacob was getting exasperated with him. "That man isn't right for her!" Spencer burst out, recounting everything that had happened.Jacob shook his head. "They have a child together. What's the point of saying all this now?""He's manipulative and deceitful!" Spencer's voice rose with frustration. "How can Ari be with someone like that? Even if I didn't love her, I couldn't stand by and watch her be with someone so toxic!"Jacob took a deep breath and offered another per

"Still, he shouldn't have hit anyone!" Ariana sighed as she looked at his face, now swollen and red. "Does it hurt?"Sam's eyes welled up with tears. "Yeah, it hurts like hell..."Spencer stood nearby, his fists clenched tight. For some reason, Sam just made his blood boil, and he wanted nothing more than to punch him again."Mr. Ulrich," Ariana said while supporting Sam. "Let me say this one last time—stay out of my life. Since Sam's willing to let this go, I won't press charges, but if there's a next time, I will call the police."After her warning, Ariana helped Sam inside their house. They both froze in their tracks when they saw Leo standing in the doorway—neither knew how long he had been awake or how much he had heard."Leo," Ariana quickly spoke up. "Go back inside.""Mom, you two go ahead. I'll close the door," Leo responded quietly.Ariana had no choice but to help Sam inside while Leo walked to the doorway and looked up at Spencer. The little boy barely reached Spence

After that, Sam told Ariana softly, "Go check on Leo. I'll handle this."Wanting no part in this confrontation, Ariana went back inside. Sam closed the door and cracked his knuckles. "Why are you always bothering Ari? She's my girlfriend now, and you should stop.""You're not right for her," Spencer replied coldly."Are you?" Sam raised an eyebrow. "I'm younger, more devoted, and I'd never hurt her or flirt with another woman. What makes you think you're better?""This is between Ari and me. It doesn't concern you.""It doesn't concern me? Or you just can't think of a response? Did I hit a nerve? I guess getting older really does make people shameless.""Don't get cocky. You're not Ari's type at all."Sam leaned in closer, lowering his voice. "That's where you're wrong. Ari loves everything about me, especially my young body..."Before he could finish, Spencer threw down the food container and swung at him. Sam, anticipating the move, dodged quickly. Before long, the two me

Boa quickly called Ariana back and reported, "It's not Zane.""Then, it must have been Spencer," Ariana concluded."That obsessive jerk!" Boa exclaimed. "He just won't give up!"Ariana asked, "Boey, since Rowan and Zane are close, could you tell Rowan to let Zane know that nothing will ever happen between us?"Boa sighed. "I already told him, but I'll emphasize it to him again. By the way, when are you heading to Orkney? I want to pick up Leo!""Tomorrow afternoon," Ariana replied. "But don't worry about picking him up—he's coming with me."When Ariana hung up, she found Leo watching her expectantly. He jumped into her arms as soon as she put down her phone. "Mom, are you done? Can you play with me now?"Ariana's heart melted. "Of course, baby. What would you like to play?""Let's play house!" Leo's eyes sparkled. "You be the mommy, and I'll be the baby, and you have to carry me!""Alright." Ariana laughed, scooping him up."No, not like that," Leo directed. "Carry me like

Dennis could not help glancing in the rearview mirror at that comment. Meanwhile, Ariana looked at Sam and blurted out, "Marriage? Did you forget what we agreed on?""I remember," Sam replied. "But with your ex-husband and that Zane guy, we've got our work cut out. I'm worried they'll figure things out. Maybe we should turn this act into reality."Ariana shook her head firmly. "I'm sorry, but I can't do that. You're already doing me a huge favor by helping. Marriage is sacred, and when you find someone you truly love—" "But Ari, you're the one I love! I want to marry you!" Sam interrupted."Sam, you're still young..." Ariana smiled gently.Sam protested, "I'm not that young! You always use that excuse, but you're only five years older than me!"Before Ariana could respond, Dennis chimed in from the front seat, "There's an old saying—you can't force love. Sam, if you really care for her, win her heart properly and make her say yes to you. This isn't the way." "You sound like

Ariana smiled politely. "That really won't be necessary. Don't put yourself through that, Mr. Marshall. You're quite the catch, and I'm certainly not worthy. If you'll excuse me, they're waiting for me."With that, Ariana turned and headed downstairs, where Sam was leaning casually against the car, waiting for her. Even though he and Dennis knew each other, they did not get along well, so Sam stepped out of the car to wait.Being a handsome foreigner with striking features and bright blue eyes, Sam naturally drew admiring glances from passersby. He was used to the attention, but suddenly, his gaze fixed on someone watching him with unmistakable hostility.He quickly realized it was the same guy from the airport yesterday, who had tried to block their path but was completely ignored by Ariana. Sam met Spencer's gaze with calm confidence and the natural arrogance of someone who knew they had won. As far as he was concerned, Spencer was the defeated rival—someone who did not stand a

"That jerk..." Boa muttered under her breath before turning to Leo with a bright smile. "Leo, I'm going to treat you to something yummy!""Thank you, Aunt Boa," Leo replied with a blank face."Come on. Give me a smile," Boa cooed, pinching his cheek. "Oh, my goodness! You're just too cute!"Leo responded by burying his face in Ariana's shoulder. Jensen rushed to join them after finishing his surgery, making it a lively meal with five adults and one child. Leo only showed his bright smile when interacting with Ariana, maintaining his composed expression with everyone else.However, his stoic demeanor only encouraged Boa to tease him more, filling the dinner with laughter and joy. After that, Rowan arrived to pick up Boa, accompanied by Zane. By then, Leo was fighting to stay awake after his long flight and emotional reunion.He managed to open his eyes briefly to look at the two tall men before drifting off on Ariana's shoulder. Though the glimpse was quick, it was enough for

"Me, too!" Sienna exclaimed, and Ariana could not help but laugh at her precious son's perfect little face, now adorned with two lipstick marks.Even though Leo felt that he was too grown up to be carried, he had not seen Ariana in so long that he did not want to leave her arms. Just this once, he decided to indulge himself and enjoy the comfort of her embrace.As the group walked toward the exit, sharing laughs, Ariana suddenly stopped in her tracks. The others paused, confused."What's wrong? Why did you stop…" Boa's voice trailed off as she spotted the man standing ahead of them.It was Spencer, his eyes fixed intently on the child in Ariana's arms. Now, Boa understood why Ariana had been so confident that Spencer would not question Leo's parentage. With those bright blue eyes matching Sam's, there was no way Spencer would suspect Leo was his.Boa thought it was a brilliant plan, and she looked at Spencer smugly. On the other hand, Leo glanced at Spencer before resting obed
