After taking an x–
ray of Jim‘s leg, Sage concluded that his ligament was torn and there were no fractures of the bones.
Sage applied some ointment onto the swollen part of his ankle and wrapped his ankle with a bandage.
Jim‘s teammates stared at Jim as if he was a display piece in a museum.
“Damn, the cool kid isn‘t cool anymore.”
“The charming guy isn‘t charming anymore.”
Jim‘s teammates laughed away at Jim‘s misfortune.
Jim could not be bothered about what they said. At least when he was around Sage, he wanted to main
tain a good image of himself. If not, he would have given a good beating to the guys. “Well, he’s still ch
arming.” Sage went on, “Just that he wouldn‘t be able to move around freely for the time being. You‘d n

overed?” “If it wasn‘t for me, would his leg have gotten better?” Sage glared at him and went on, “You b
etter take good care of your leg. If not, I‘ll chop it off.”
“Yes ma‘am.” Jim nodded obediently.
His teammates stared at him, looking baffled.
They were surprised that the Jim that they knew turned into a completely different person.
Not long after, Jim‘s coach showed up. At the sight of Jim‘s injury, his fury sprang to life.
With his hands on his waist, he started lecturing Jim.
“Son! You should know better that your body is your asset as a sportsman! Just because you were awa
rded the MVP prize in the last game and you think that you can do whatever you like. You‘ve just joined
the national team and there are dozens of games that
you‘d need to take part in. Was it worth going all out for the
game earlier? Ever since the last tournament, you haven‘t been getting your head in the game. You

, what exactly is going on?
Jim
had his head hung low as his coach lectured him whereas his teammates already tried to keep their dis
tance.
They did not want to be caught in the crossfire.
“I‘m not dating...”
Jim replied as he stole a glance at Sage and quickly looked away.
“There you go denying it again!” The coach seethed in rage as his eyes were opened wide. “Tell me the
n, who‘s that person that you named Pretty Sister in your contacts? You even sent her a message aski
ng her to come home quickly!”
Jim‘s eyes shot wide open.
Sitting behind Jim and the coach, Sage enjoyed the show.
Pretty sister...
Not only was Jim dating, but he dated someone older than him.
“Coach, how did you know...”
With his hands still on his waist, the coach replied bluntly, “I looked through your phone, of course.”
Jim was once again speechless. “Are you still planning to deny it?”
The
coach grabbed Jim‘s phone from the desk and unlocked his phone easily. Simply because Jim did not s

Even though he was quick, he was injured and his coach was able to avoid him easily. The coach opene
A loud thud was suddenly heard. Jim reached out his arms and snatched the phone
from his coach‘s hands and in a swift move, he threw his phone out of the window.
His series of actions left everyone in the room speechless and goggled–eye.
His teammates were dumbfounded.
Even his coach froze.
With his brows furrowed tightly together, Jim tried to hold back the pain coming from his ankle while his
forehead was covered in a cold sweat.
However, he was a step too late.
Sage caught a glimpse of his phone. The profile picture of the Pretty Sister was a picture of Chibi Maruk
The picture could not be found anywhere online. The situation immediately got awkward.
There was an awkward silence in the room. “Why‘d you throw away the phone? Even if you‘re rich, you
