My Beloved Ex - wife
Chapter 51

After leaving the field, Roan immediately went to Zetta who was still loyal to wait for him. His steps look fast and a smile continues to linger on his lips.

"I did it, brother!" Roan cheered cheerfully. Now it was not just a smile anymore that he was showing off, but rather a crisp laugh.

"good. That way I don't waste coming here, no loss of time" replied Zetta.

"Thank you, brother." Roan kept smiling. Not at all offended by Zetta's rather stingy answer. He knew behind the sentence was tucked in a sincere kindness.

"Roan, congratulations on finishing the match well. Now you are officially joining the core players" said the basketball coach who was in front of Roan and Zetta at the time.

"Thank you very much, sir. All this is also thanks to the help of my father. Thanks for the spades." Roan replied while bowing respectfully.

"After this do not get bored or lazy to practice, continue to improve your abilities. Show that you really deserve to be in this position."

"Surely, Sir. I promise I will train even harder" Roan replied firmly.

"good. Keep your spirits up." The basketball coach patted Roan on the shoulder several times.

Afterwards, the basketball coach handed Zetta a formal contract. The woman accepted it with a big smile, then returned to her signature. And this time not only Zetta, but Roan also signed there.

Not far from where they are, friends who are also members of the team participated to see the success of Roan. There was a sense of disbelief in their minds, given Roan's previously ordinary abilities. But today was amazing. He managed to break the assumption of others who were convinced that he would fail.

"Congratulations to all of you who have joined the core team. We will be given the best facilities, including cars when you will compete. So, you also do not be lazy to practice. Keep trying and show that you are the best. Remember, there is so much hope hanging out to you. So, keep the spirit up and never give up!" said the basketball coach encouraged his students.

"Ready, sir," Roan and other friends said in unison.

Shortly after, the coach left the place and told them to rest. However, Roan remained unmoved in his place. He just lowered his head and looked at the contract letter that was still held, there was not the slightest intention to move from there.

Roan was too happy with today's result, so there was nothing more interesting. It still feels like a dream to get that position. After so long expected and fought, finally today was achieved. It was the best performance of his entire life. An accomplishment that has never been imagined.

Before Zetta arrived, Roan gave up. By the time the other guardians had arrived, Zetta had not yet revealed the trunk of her nose. Roan thought Zetta would not come, because after the last meeting there was no confirmation from the woman. Roan was so sad, it felt like there was no chance to try.

On the one hand, Zetta is indeed a nobody to him. She was just a former sister-in-law who had never been considered, not even by herself. But on the other hand, Roan has no hope other than Zetta. His sister and mother did not want to understand his wishes, while the prospective sister-in-law was also reluctant to provide help.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Roan. I'm busy, a lot of business that can't be left out. Actually I'm not good at resisting this either, but how else, I really did not have time. Again sorry yes, Roan," Helia refused when Roan called and asked her for help. It does sound subtle, but it still makes Roan disappointed.

"Why?" zetta asked when she saw Roan's rather strange gaze.

"Sister Zetta is so good. Even though I used to be bad, but Big Brother is still good with me. Thank you very much, brother. If there's no Zetta, this achievement I'll never have." Roan praised Zetta without turning his gaze away.

"I'm not as good as you think I am" Zetta said. However, unbeknownst to Roan he also hummed a smile. Hopefully, today will be a good start for Roan's future.

"It's okay. As bad as Sister Zetta is, for me it's still the best."

Zetta was speechless when Roan answered. He only reviewed a thin smile while slightly raising one eyebrow, inexhaustible with Roan's exaggerated mannerisms. Perhaps, basketball does mean a lot to that young man. So, she expressed her happiness without shame.

Meanwhile, beside Zetta, Rayden laughed crisply. He knew how Roan used to treat Zetta, and now his attitude is very different from that. Rayden found it funny.

"You're acting like this to Zetta, aren't you afraid your sister is angry?" seduce Rayden while raising both eyebrows.

Roan did not answer. He just threw his face away while clucking in annoyance. Rayden laughed and saw it.

Shortly thereafter, Zetta picked up her phone because there was a message notification, apparently from the number of people who had one night stand with her. Zetta frowned in confusion as she read the message from him. The man informed him of the existence of the director of the company to be acquired by him.

"Why would he know that I'm planning this?" inner Zetta while thinking hard.

Not wanting to be curious for too long, Zetta replied to the message. He asked who the man was, and how he knew he was going to acquire a company. Zetta did not take her eyes off the screen when the message was sent, she was very impatient to wait for a reply from him.

Meanwhile, in his study Keenan frowned. In his heart wondered, did Zetta not yet know that it was him?

"That means that that night he didn't remember my face at all" Keenan murmured.

Then, he took advantage of the opportunity to lie to Zetta. Keenan did not admit that it was him, but claimed to be Alex's friend.

"If he finds out this is my number, he'll avoid it. Better just like this. I saw he was pretty close to Alex, so he'd want to be close to his friend." Keenan stared at the message he had sent while having a dialogue with himself.

Sure enough, his guess. Shortly after, Zetta replied to her message. The language used is more flexible and does not seem cornered like before. In fact, Zetta also had time to thank him.

Keenan flinched for a moment after reading the message. In his mind there was a sense of relief, but there was also a sense of smell. Then, the feeling of guilt becomes more dominant.
