Return Of The Heiress For Revenge - Chapter 145

Chapter 145: Duped By The Sisters

Nora ignored them. She was not their age that she became flustered just by standing alone in the crowd.

She looked around and found a set of dumbbells. She picked them with a smirk and returned to her mat. Other teams had already taken their position. A girl was lying flat on the mat with her leg bent at 90 degree angle and feet flat on the floor. The other girl was holding her feet tightly. Then Lifting their Upper Body, they Raised their torso toward their knees using their abdominal muscles.

Many waited for Nora to make fun of her. Of course the exercise could be done alone, but then their feet would not stay flat on the mat. Nora sat on the mat and placed two dumbbells on her both feet making sure the weight was enough to lock her feet. Then she inhaled a deep breath and laid on the ground.

Slowly, she started doing push ups but within a few breaths, she was doing them like a pro. Like she had only did sit ups all her life.

Those who were waiting to make fun of her were all dumbfounded and looked at her with a stunned gaze.

The coach was making rounds. When Nora was left alone, he was going to offer him a break. But paused when he saw Nora walking toward the dumbbells table. As a coach he knew what she was doing and this had brought a smile on his face.

He stared at many girls who stopped and changed places with their team members only after doing four sets. But since Nora did not have a partner, she continued. By the time everyone had finished one set each, she had already completed more than two sets.

She did not waste time in exchanging places with her partner like others.

“That is enough for today!” His stern voice relieved everyone. They stopped and wiped their sweat. The coach looked at the boys and then nodded. Many had performed well.

“There is a football match coming up. I want everyone in their good shapes before that. But there is a..” coach hesitated for a second. “Boxing matches are organized too. For both, boys and girls.” his gaze fell on Nora and he paused for three seconds before continuing., “i know that many are not interested in the game. But I hope a few people try it too. That is it, you all may leave.” They stood up ready to leave. “Except you Nora. your method of exercise was wrong. So you will face detention for an hour.”

The girls paused and giggled. Many looked at Nora and laughed. They all had a stomach full of anger from last night. Nora had the notes too but she did not give them. She did not want to give them from the start. She was only teasing them because they supported many. Though they understand her reasons, they felt being duped by the sisters.

Since they could not take their anger on Penny, they will take it on Nora. Emma looked at Nora with complex emotions. She did not understand what happened last night. Nora had changed plans so many times. By the time night ended, Emma was left confused. For her, it was a failure. Penny did not lose her friends of image. Nora did not earn friends or image. What was the use of all that act then?

“Tsk! Did she think she would impress the coach by her strange acts!” someone laughed and they all left.

Nora closed her eyes and when she turned, her face was cold.

“I know that you have not stopped scolding me.” the coach blinked at Nora. his eyes widened slightly before he laughed.

“I have never taken you as a smart girl but I was wrong. You have done much better than I have expected Nora.” he nodded with appreciation. “Yes, it is not your mistake that you did not get a partner. And the method you use is common in a few gyms. But I am sure you have never been there.” he probed, making her sigh.

She had indeed seen Benard using this method. Her husband was a freak when it came to exercising and maintaining his looks. Even in his forties, he never looked older than twenties. That was one of the reasons that she did not refuse to marry him despite their age difference.

“Do not worry, I am not going to punish you. In fact, I am impressed by the amount of core exercise you performed without stopping. Do you often exercise?” Nora smiled.

The coach would think that it was his luck but she had it planned. She knew about the contest already. She even knows about the participants and winners.

“Yes, I like exercise. It is for my self defense.” the man nodded with appreciation but he still hesitated when he noticed the cast in her one hand.

“Are you worried that I have hurt myself? Do not worry, it has been a month already. I have an appointment tomorrow and the cast will be taken away.” the man finally sighed with relief.

“Nora, i have stopped you because of the announcement i have made earlier. I want a girl to participate in the boxing competition too. Have you ever tried boxing?” she had! But she had never tried it in her past life so she could not accept it.

“I have dreamt of punching my enemies a few times. If that counts.” she chuckled. Her candid reply did not offend the coach. He sighed.

“How about you try in reality this time. Imagining your enemies in that punching bag and giving it a try. We have an hour to assess you.” he pointed at the punching bag on the side and she nodded.

She walked toward it and punched it hard. Though the speed was good, the force was still lacking. But for a beginner it was more than perfect.

His eyes gleamed with joy.

“Nora, will you participate in the match? The award would be more than you think.”
