Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu’s Passionate Pursuit-Chapter 813 - 809: An Outstanding Family of Five
Chapter 813: Chapter 809: An Outstanding Family of Five
Upon arriving at the finish line, Timothy scanned the area, pointed out the best position to Roy Lewis and moved there. With his hands clasped around the ball, in a graceful and standard manner, he threw the ball towards the basket.
The ball made a “whoosh” sound as it swished through the basket, without even grazing the rim. Clean and neat.
Timothy’s beautiful shot prompted a round of cheers.
Roy Lewis quickly turned around and ran back, while Timothy, sitting on his back, cheekily took off his baseball cap, and waved it in salute towards the cheering students and parents.
Richelle Dunn, Timmy, Tifanny, and Nathan Caroule were all amused by his antics.
“Showing off, big brother!”
Tifanny laughed, cupped her hands around her mouth, and shouted at Timothy.
“Go big brother! Go daddy!”
Roy Lewis had already run back to the starting point. Timothy picked up the second ball. The parents and their kids, from the same group, started walking towards the finish line carrying their students.
However, none of the other students had Timothy’s basketball skills. Moreover, they didn’t have the physical advantages Timothy had, after all, Timothy had a father who was much taller than the average person.
Thus, while Timothy swiftly bagged the second ball, his group mates were still scrambling to retrieve and reshoot theirs.
The remaining eight balls seemed like a replay of the first two.
When Roy Lewis, carrying Timothy, skillfully made the tenth shot, the other parents and children who hadn’t started their rounds yet, were chanting “Awesome!” on the sidelines.
The fastest team in their group had only made three shots by this time.
And so, Roy Lewis and Timothy returned to the spectators’ seats, casually sipping water as if they were simply spectators, resting and watching the games.
With the results of the first group announced, Roy Lewis and Timothy took first place, finishing in a third of the time taken by the second place team.
Timmy was in the second group. The whistle for the group had blown, and Roy Lewis, having rested more than ten minutes, had recovered his energy. He carried Timmy, mirroring what he did with Timothy, the father-son duo worked in perfect harmony and quickly made the first, second, third… shots.
This group had another team of parents who were faster runners compared to the first group. When Roy Lewis and Timmy had shot all ten balls, they had just made their fifth shot.
Without a doubt, Roy Lewis and Timmy, took the first place in this group, finishing twice as fast as the second place team.
Tifanny was in the fourth group, and this time, Roy Lewis had rested for nearly thirty minutes.
Roy Lewis had fully recovered.
However, Tifanny’s shooting skills were not as good as her brothers’, out of all the shots, she only made two single-shot baskets, with the rest requiring two or three attempts.
But even so, her skills were still better than the other children.
So even though she took a bit longer than her brothers, Tifanny won first place in the fourth group.
At the end, when the awards were presented in the classroom, the three kids, along with their daddy and mummy, were holding their first-place certificates while standing on the podium.
Nathan Caroule was standing on the stage, taking photos and videos of the family of five.
In the end, Nathan Caroule couldn’t resist posting a photo of the family of five, holding their certificates, on his WhatsApp Status.
He added a cat’s head to each of their faces and added a caption…
“Excellence is always excellent, no matter where.”
Soon, there were dozens of comments guessing who it was, “I’d bet a hundred bucks, this definitely is Master Lewis’ family!”
Nathan Caroule ignored these comments, joined the family of five and asked other parents to take a group photo for them.
The three children, with the company of their mum, dad and Uncle Caroule, had completed their first mini parent-child sports meet in their life.
They all happily returned home, enthusiastically telling their grandfather about all the amazing things that happened that day, showing off their certificates in front of him.
Roy Lewis was a top student back in the day, who won numerous awards and trophies.
But back then, Master Lewis didn’t seem to care much.
However, now, he seriously smoothed out the certificates on the coffee table, took a photo and shared it with his old pals.
They started murmuring and sending voice messages. Some were envious, some were sour, but in reality, they were all happy for him.
After catching up with the old pals, he instructed Uncle Axel to paste these certificates on the wall in the study.
Looking at each other, Richelle Dunn and Roy Lewis wanted to say something, but in the end, they didn’t say a word and let Master Lewis have his way.
The children didn’t mind at all. If anything, they were more excited about spending a whole afternoon with their father than winning the certificates.
The happiness of the three children was undisguised. On the way home, the siblings hummed bizarre melodies from time to time, indicative of their extremely jubilant mood.
Looking at his carefree children who were still cracking jokes in the living room, Roy Lewis couldn’t help but reflect.
“Richelle, remind me from now on, no matter how busy I am, I should try to spare at least half a day every ten days to spend with them.”
