恶霸鲁尼 奖学金

Since Abigail would have a date with Nathan alone tomorrow, he decided to hang out with Ethan today. This would be her bonding moment with the young boy. She would also bring Ethan to Xu Family Mansion. Nathan would not accompany them because he and Old Man Xu hadn\'t reconciled yet.

"Mom!" Ethan excitedly ran in her direction while holding his small backpack. He looked so cute with his dark blue polo neck t-shirt and white pants. He was also wearing black sunglasses.

Abigail couldn\'t help but giggle upon seeing the charming boy. She leaned over and hugged him, squeezing him in her arms. "You\'re so gorgeous, my baby!" 

Abigail couldn\'t help it. Calling Ethan her baby just came out of her naturally. She didn\'t feel any awkwardness anymore as if he was truly her own son.

\'Damn! I began to love this kid so much… I don\'t want to be separated from him. I\'m going to miss him.\' Abigail\'s heart clenched just thinking about her separation from Ethan once she returned to her body.

\'This is one of the reasons why I should find something that can help me lessen Nathan\'s hatred and anger toward Phantomflake.\'

"You\'re so beautiful too, Mom. Let\'s leave now so we can spend more time and go to different places." Ethan grabbed her hand, dragging her toward the entrance door.

"Where do you want to go first?" Abigail asked Ethan as she followed him.

"Amusement Park again! I want to enjoy different rides with you. You and me. This time, my Dad is not with us!" The young boy\'s eyes sparkled in excitement. 

"Alright. Your wish is my command!"

Abigail guided Ethan inside the car. She was the one driving it. Old Master Yan gifted her a car for her to use.

Twenty five minutes later, the two reached their destination. Abigail brought Ethan to the amusement arcade because she wanted to win something and give the prize to Ethan. Winning something through her effort was more special than just buying it on the market.

She also wanted to flex her skills to Ethan. Maybe, she just wanted him to remember her as Phantomflake- someone who was skillful enough to win every game for him.

"Yay! We are going to play! I love it, Mom!" Ethan swung Abigail\'s hand as he jumped with joy. Abigail could only watch him in amusement.

The duo stopped at the nearest game booth they saw. It was "Pingpong ball and Fishbowl". In this game, they had to throw ping pong balls at a table filled with rows of empty fish bowls. If they could manage to get the ball in the bowl, they could win a goldfish.

Abigail and Ethan fell in line as they were other people playing the game. They observed for five minutes. No one among the first players got the prize.

"Mom. It looks hard. The ping pong balls keep on bouncing out of the fishbowls, that\'s why they failed to get the prize. Should we go somewhere else?"

Abigail gave him a reassuring smile and said, "How many goldfish do you want? I will get them for you."

When the other customers heard her confident remarks, they couldn\'t help but react in disbelief. They wanted to laugh at her because she thought it was easy. They\'ve tried many times but they failed. They expected Abigail to fail as well.

"You won\'t get any prize." One made some negative remarks, mocking Abigail.

Ethan immediately stepped forward to argue with the man who looked down on Abigail.

"You\'re wrong. My mom can win all the goldfish in that aquarium!!!" Ethan snarled at the guy who mocked Abigail and pointed his finger at the aquarium containing hundreds of goldfish.

"Hahaha! You\'re dreaming, boy. What you said is impossible. I can bet my life on it. Hahaha. You\'re delusional." The guy picked on a fight with them because he was annoyed and grumpy for not winning anything. His daughter also wanted to get goldfish.

Abigail\'s expression changed. Her eyes turned cold as she looked at the man. Mocking her was fine but she couldn\'t allow this man to insult Ethan.

\'Delusional?! My son is not delusional!\' Abigail ground her teeth. She immediately paid the carnival staff to start playing. She would show him that Ethan was not wrong. She could win all the goldfish in that aquarium.

"Hmm, if she can do it then I will be the one to pay for her expenses. Only if she can shoot 100 ping pong balls inside the fish bowls," the man added, continued mocking Abigail.

"Okay. It\'s a deal." Abigail said, smirking evilly at him. Then she turned to the carnival staff. "You heard him. Once I shoot 100 ping pong balls, he will shoulder all the cost of those balls."

The carnival staff just smiled at her awkwardly, darting his gaze back and forth between Abigail and the guy. He didn\'t take her words seriously because he already expected her to fail at the first try.

"Miss, just don\'t mind him. You can play with your son. No need to make unnecessary deals with him." The carnival staff tried to calm her down.

"No. A deal is a deal," Abigail said firmly.

The guy who challenged Abigail just sneered at her. Abigail got five ping pong balls for the first round.

Ethan tugged her hand and gazed up. Abigail saw worries and guilt in his eyes. Ethan felt sorry for troubling Abigail. Ethan didn\'t want Abigail to get tired by shooting 100 ping pong balls just to prove his words.

Ethan bit his lower lip and shook his head as if he was telling her to just ignore the guy. But Abigail wouldn\'t stop until she could give him a lesson.

She just winked at Ethan and stroked his head. It was her way of telling him to trust her.

"What are you waiting for? Throw the balls now. Don\'t waste my time." The guy kept provoking Abigail.

Abigail shot him a deathly glare before she shifted her gaze to the table where the fish bowls were located. She lifted her hand and began to throw the ping pong balls.

Pok!

Pok!

Pok!

Pok!

Pok!

Abigail threw the balls consecutively. Surprisingly, she managed to shoot the five balls inside the fish bowls! All five of them!

The carnival staff and the guy were both dumbfounded as they looked at the fish bowls containing five balls. How could that happen?

The guy even blinked and rubbed his eyes as he couldn\'t believe what he saw. \'What the heck?! How did she do that?\'

"Yey! Nice one, Mom!" Ethan gave Abigail a high five! He felt so proud of her. He stared at the guy while grinning from ear to ear.

"See? My Mom can do it!"

The guy frowned and felt more annoyed. "It\'s just because of luck!" He spat back at Ethan.

But the guy fell silent once more when Abigail threw another five ping pong balls. She didn\'t miss. All five got inside the fish bowls.

Guy: "..."

Carnival Staff: "..."

Abigail kept throwing the balls, enjoying the funny expression of the guy who mocked her. In just five minutes, twenty ping pong balls got inside the fish bowls without a miss. They didn\'t know that the woman in front of them had good hand control! She is Phantomflake after all!
