章 584: A Rest Before the NBA Finals 3

Jake's friends weren't as surprised when the New York Knicks won because Jake had said it would happen. They admired his understanding of basketball and felt more at ease knowing that the Los Angeles Lakers would face the easier opponent.

Then came June 12, 1999. The Los Angeles Lakers already knew they would face the New York Knicks on June 16, and it was also the day Kate arrived in Los Angeles again.

Jake woke up early and had the breakfast that Eva had prepared. He wanted to meet Kate at the airport, but she had come to Los Angeles without her team and only with Lily to avoid being followed by paparazzi.

If Jake showed up at Los Angeles Airport, all the paparazzi and sports reporters would follow him. So, Jake had to wait at his home for Kate to arrive. He was glad that Kate and Lily had agreed to stay at his Los Angeles home.
