Chapter 116: Wins and Cons 3

Screams of awe spread among the crowd as they witnessed another grand spectacle. It wasn't as thrilling as Riley's match, but it was by far one of the coolest to watch.

Rose gave one final glance to the duke before stepping off the stage.

Clap!

A series of gentle claps echoed in front of her. Standing at the entryway to the waiting area was a young man, his eyes slightly closed.

"Congratulations, Miss Rose. That was a magnificent fight."

The man seemed slightly shocked at her reaction, but he didn't let it show.

"Ah, please excuse me. I guess it's been quite some time since we last had a conversation, so it wouldn't be weird if you've forgotten. My name is Theo Lightway. Does it ring any bells?"

"Theo Lightway..." she mumbled, but she still didn't seem to recognize him.
