Chapter 2576

Author: Lord Leaf
Matilda replied, “I just measured it. It was thirty-nine point two degrees Celsius. I already ate the fever medicine, but it seems like it hasn’t taken effect yet.”

Once Jacob heard the temperature, he felt as though his heart was being torn out. He proactively bent down and pressed his forehead against Matilda’s forehead. After feeling it for a moment, he blurted out, “Your forehead is indeed terribly hot. Why don’t you go sit down on the sofa first, and I’ll get you a wet towel.”

Matilda said in embarrassment, “I’m so sorry to trouble you, Jacob…”

Jacob said solemnly, “Why are you being so polite with me? Do you remember the time during university, when I was in my dormitory and had a fever which made me unable to attend class? You took the initiative to skip class and went over the wall to the boys’ dormitory and took care of me for the entire day.”

When Matilda heard this, her expression immediately became extremely shy.

The past that Jacob had mentioned, naturally, she r

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6952

    Aurora's coach leapt on stage and they hugged each other, and a crowd soon followed, while Heidi's team had to quietly get on stage to whisk her out of the ring.Still, Aurora's eyes were darting around the ring, searching for Charlie.Soon, she found him sitting in the front row and smiling at her.Thrilled, she gave him a big wave as she shouted, "Master Wade! Master Wade!"As their eyes met, Charlie nodded at her and pointed backstage, and Aurora understood right then that they should talk there.There was no way they could talk in the ring, and there was still a men's category match waiting.Aurora was now going to take a break backstage as the awards ceremony would be after the men's final, and everyone would go on stage to receive their prizes.Aurora promptly turned to the coach, smiling, "See that handsome face in the black shirt, sitting in the front row? He's my… uh…"She was suddenly stumped as she really wasn't sure what her connection to Charlie was.A friend? Tha

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6951

    Aurora felt her adrenaline pulsating when she heard Charlie, her motivation blazing!Her eyes flashed with the thrill of a hunter cornering his prey as she looked at Heidi again, while Heidi had the wind knocked out of her after Aurora's uppercut.There was no way she was going to regain her composure so soon, and by then, Aurora had already pounced like a bloodthirsty leopard.Heidi tried to dodge, but there was no way her reflexes could beat Aurora as she reached her even before she could steady her footing.Having learnt her lesson, she didn't expose her chest and leaned forward to shield herself while launching an uppercut right up Heidi's jaw.As she shifted to a 45-degree angle to poise herself forward, any opponent quick enough could hold her head and knee her in the face—it was a move rarely seen amongst professionals, but Aurora didn't take that risk into account.After all, she already knew that Heidi was slower than she was, and if she took the first strike, Heidi wasn

    In a normal fight, Aurora would always choose the most strategic reaction if she noticed an opponent attacking her chest.If the punch wouldn't hurt and she could punch back harder on the counter, she wouldn't go out of her way to defend herself. They were all women, anyway, so it was just all fair game—or downright strategic to go for the delicate parts on occasion.But today was clearly different.No matter how much Heidi claimed to be transgender and asserted to have always considered herself a woman, she was a man in Aurora's mind, through and through. So, when Heidi reached out, looking like she was going to cop a feel, Aurora suddenly forgot that she was in a fight. Her inner maiden, reserved and proud, sprang forth, and she instinctively tried to shield her breasts like she would from a pervert.However, it didn't matter to Heidi. Even though Aurora had managed to protect her chest, her entire face was completely exposed, just as she expected.She knew it was impossible f

    Heidi was caught off balance. While this was her first time competing in the women's category, she had researched the other seeded rivals before the actual event.That was especially the case for Aurora, who was the top seed.However, she still cruised to the finals, as the overall strength of the women's fighters was undoubtedly a class beneath that of the men's. That was why she had grown to underestimate even Aurora.Naturally, she had also cross-referenced gender disparity across other events, such as the 100-meter track and field. In that category, the best men's records were under ten seconds, while the top women's record was between ten and eleven seconds. Heidi thought to herself then that she was in the 10.5-second range—while she might not make the finals in the men's division, winning the women's division would be easy.Never could she have expected that Aurora would immediately put her on the back foot, and all her usual skills and strategies proved ineffective. She

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6948

    Heidi's aggression drew further jeers, but she clearly had mental fortitude in spades, and the crowd wasn't getting to her, no matter how loud they got.At the same time, Bojo groaned beside Charlie. "I mean, this ain't discrimination or anything, but couldn't they just make another new category if necessary? Let people of the same weight class compete fairly—that's just how it always goes from the very beginning."You can decide who you are, but it's just fair for you to fight your own kind in your own weight class. I mean, isn't sports all about pursuing fairness? It's like I sprained my foot, and suddenly I'm qualified to join in the Paralympics 100-meter dash. "Other Paralympians have to overcome their disability to be able to compete for the honor, yet now, they're suddenly competing against me, who's otherwise a fit, healthy man aside from my sprain. Why would any other healthy athlete even bother to train at that point? Just join the Paralympics and take all the prize money

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6947

    While Charlie was confused about what a man was doing competing in a woman's weight class, many others around him were already jeering.Nudging the man beside him, he said, "Hey, is there something I should know about that fighter?"The man, Bojo, shrugged. "Well, she claims to be a woman trapped in a man's body ever since she was a child. Even said she's taking anti-androgens and all that, all while taking part in various women's category matches. On top of that, she insisted that she's going to have gender-affirmation surgery later, too."Charlie nodded, a little stumped. "But technically speaking, she is physically a man?""Exactly!" Bojo huffed indignantly. "It's really a little too much, letting her take part in a sports event where physicality holds a defining advantage.""Well, in that case, how did she get the official panel's approval to compete?" Charlie asked, puzzled.Bojo sighed. "Because sporting committees these days are as corrupt as FIFA back in the day. Pay enou
