Chapter 109 Kicking Directly In The Face

Skylar would not possibly allow her to skip the training.

With a stern expression, he declared, “Regardless of whether you are a student here or not, if you’re in my class, you must participate in the training I’ve arranged.”

With a look of grievance on her face, Janessa said, “But I’m not your student. I just wanted to have some fun. I-“

Skylar merely scoffed, “Janessa, you’re simply intimidated by your own fear. But you don’t have to worry. The place is filled with sponge mats. You won’t get hurt. Besides, these moves are all about self-defense. Even if you’re not a student here, wouldn’t it be beneficial to learn some self-defense skills for free?”

The people around unanimously agreed.

“Even if you’re not a student here, it’s a good thing to learn more when given the opportunity.”

“What’s wrong with a girl learning some self-defense skills?”

Even though everyone was saying the same thing, Janessa still refused to participate in the training.

Upon seeing her reaction, Madelyn realized she was scared and couldn’t help but chuckle to herself.

Janessa, so you’re capable of experiencing fear, huh?

She pretended to lean in close to her ear and whispered, “Janessa, don’t stress over it. Let’s just go with the flow and make do, all right?”

Janessa bit her lip. “But I—”

Madelyn feigned reassurance. “Don’t worry. I won’t be too hard on you. You have no idea how fierce this coach is. If we don’t cooperate, we might end up running laps as a penalty, at least twenty! Plus, fifty sit-ups! My goodness, can you really handle that?”

Janessa felt as if she was losing her mind.

If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have made this trip and shot herself in the foot.

However, under everyone’s urging, Janessa had no choice but to reluctantly step up.

Madelyn looked at her, her smile was incredibly tender.

Yet, her actions were far from polite.

With a grunt, she fiercely grabbed onto Janessa’s collar and skillfully executed an over-the-shoulder throw.

Immediately, Janessa let out a scream.

Despite landing on a thick sponge mat, Janessa, being as delicate as she was, still felt a bit of pain.

Madelyn feigned anxiety and rushed over.

“Oh my God, Janessa, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to… It just happened all of a sudden… Are you all right?”

Janessa was in pain, but seeing that Madelyn was worried, she could only force a nod. “Yeah.”

She had thought it was the end when Skylar suddenly spoke up. “Since you’re all right, let’s do it again!”

What?

Janessa was dumbfounded.

Madelyn shrugged helplessly. “There’s no way out. Let’s do it again, shall we?”

Janessa was filled with distress, but she had no choice but to steel herself and stand up.

Madelyn decided not to grab her by the collar again; instead, she shifted her gaze to her waist.

Janessa had thought she was about to be thrown over the shoulder, so she had prepared to defend herself.

Unexpectedly, Madelyn lunged forward with a swift kick, aiming directly at her waist.

This time, the pain was real.

Janessa let out another agonizing scream.

Madelyn feigned concern once again. “Janessa? Are you okay? Oh dear, I’m really sorry. It wasn’t on purpose.”

Janessa was seething with resentment inside, yet she could only feign indifference, shaking her head in response.

This should be the end, right?

Right then, Skylar said, “Let’s go again!”

Again?

Janessa nearly fainted.

Madelyn chuckled helplessly again.

Following that, everyone bore witness to Janessa’s brutal beating by Madelyn, leaving her crumpled like a soft sandbag.

The chaotic scene reverberated with Janessa’s piercing screams as she stumbled and flailed, rendering the entire spectacle agonizing to witness.

Perfect, she indeed needs a bit of a lesson.

And so, for the last time, Madelyn pretended to slip and kicked Janessa directly in the face.

“Ah!” Janessa’s face absorbed the blow, catapulting her into a frenzy. She was so agitated that her breaths came in ragged gasps.

Dmn it! Dmn it! D*mn it!

Madelyn did it on purpose!

At that moment, to everyone’s surprise, Madelyn’s leg bone suddenly cracked, causing her to twist her ankle.

“Ouch.” Madelyn winced in pain, finding herself sitting on the ground.

Yet, she still looked toward Janessa and pretended to apologize. “I’m sorry, Janessa. I didn’t mean to hurt your face. I just slipped. I’m really sorry.”

Janessa had thought she had done it on purpose, which drove her mad with anger.

But upon seeing her stumble, twisting her own ankle, she dismissed the thought.

You fool! You brought it upon yourself!

Skylar was at a loss for words. He hastily called for the resident doctor of the combat training center to come and take a look.

At that moment, Sebastian and Wesley, watching the scene from upstairs, were rendered speechless for a long while.

In the end, Wesley asked with a hint of a headache, “Sebastian, did you understand it? I’m a bit lost. What’s going on?”

While Madelyn was kicking her, she was also sincerely apologizing at the same time. Did she do it on purpose, or was it unintentional?

Sebastian was at a loss as well.

With a cool voice, he said, “Bring that coach here. We’ll know once we ask him.”

Wesley nodded and promptly sent someone to summon Skylar.

In just a short while, Skylar arrived.

Upon seeing the two individuals, he respectfully greeted them, “Good day to you, Mr. Lockhart, Mr. Gilbert.”

Wesley didn’t beat around the bush and asked straight away, “What on earth are you guys doing down there? I’ve been watching from above for quite a while, and I still can’t figure it out.”

A sense of awkwardness etched on Skylar’s face.

I can’t believe he saw through our little tricks.

If Mr. Lockhart finds out, I will surely be reprimanded.

He casually responded, “It’s nothing. We’re just training…”

Wesley saw through his lies in an instant. “Cut the act! Confess to me now, or else you’re fired. You’ll be packing up and leaving tomorrow.”

Upon hearing that he was about to be fired, Skylar didn’t dare to lie anymore.

He spilled the beans about Madelyn seeking him out for a conversation earlier.

“Ms. Thornton expressed her desire to teach them a lesson and asked for my assistance just now, to which I agreed…”

Having said that, Skylar was still a bit worried.

I won’t lose my job because of this, right?

To his surprise, Wesley simply waved his hand and said, “Okay, you can leave now."

Skylar immediately breathed a sigh of relief and left.

Wesley was utterly perplexed.

What on earth is going on with Madelyn?

One is her best friend, and the other is the man she fancies.

Why would she target them on purpose?
