Chapter 427: Welcome To Uventus II

*Ding*

The elevator made a dinging sound as it opened up in front of Jason and Adele and they stepped into the elevator.

On getting into the elevator, they realized that they weren’t alone inside the elevator and that there were three other people inside the elevator.

Two girls and one guy and they all looked to be in their early thirties at the most and they were talking animatedly to each other even before Jason and Adele entered the elevator.

Adele didn’t even bother trying to listen in on the conversation as they were speaking in a language that she didn’t understand, but Jason immediately realized that they were speaking in French which was a bit strange since they were in Italy but he paid it no mind.

However since he understood the language, he couldn’t help but be informed about what they were talking about.

It seemed like they were on a trip and were travelling through Europe or something which was strange since the world was just recovering from the COVID-19 virus and a lot of places weren’t considered safe yet due to the lack of vaccinations but this guys had still thought it was a good idea to go on a trip in these times.

‘At least they’re wearing nose masks,’ Jason thought to himself, minding his business, after all, it was not his place to tell them what they should and should not do.

With that thought, he was just about to take his attention away from them when he noticed one of the girls glance at him and then nudge the other two.

“Don’t you think he looks kinda familiar?” the girl asked her travel-mates in French.

“Now that you mention it, he does look kinda familiar,” the only guy among them nodded in affirmation as he also glanced at Jason.

At that point, Jason realized he hadn’t worn glasses to cover his eyes. It seemed he had instinctively removed it and placed it in his car when he had gotten down at the airport in Porto.

‘Now I have to buy a new one,’ he internally face-palmed, but glancing at the three travel buddies sneaking glances at him.

“I get that a lot, it must be my handsome genes,” Jason said snarkily to them in French.

Hearing Jason speak in French surprised the three of them as they did not expect Jason to understand them.

“Ah gosh, that’s so embarrassing,” One of the girls muttered and covered her eyes and from her pronunciation, Jason could immediately tell that she was probably originally American as her English was clear and had an American accent.

“Not really, it’s not, I’m quite flattered,” Jason said in English with a smirk.

The surprise on the faces of the three travel buddies grew even more and their mouths dropped open when they realized that Jason could speak English just as well as he could speak French.

“Who is this guy?” the only guy among the group involuntarily murmured in his own mother language which was Italian.

“Just a regular guy, name’s Jason,” Jason responded in Italian and stretched out his hand for a handshake, his smirk hidden behind his nose mask, but his eyes were twinkling mischievously.

“You even know Italian!?” the guy asked in surprise, still speaking Italian.

“Well, we are in Italy, what did you think I’d speak?” Jason replied, still holding out his hand.

“When you say it like that, it does sound kind of normal,” The guy laughed, taking Jason’s hand, but he was soon pushed away by one of the girls.

“Are you Italian?” the girl asked, grabbing Jason’s hand before he could pull it away.

“No, I just have, uh… experience with the language,” Jason replied, slowly trying to pull his hand away.

“I knew it, you’re-!” the first girl’s eyes widened in realization as she finally remembered where she had seen Jason’s face, but Jason’s hand moved quicker than anyone anticipated.

“Shhhhh,” Jason shushed her lips with his finger, doing the best he could to stop her from talking without making it seem like he was trying to kidnap her.

“Let’s keep it a secret from your friends for now, yeah?” Jason quickly said and luckily for him, the elevator’s door opened just in time.

“Uh, it was nice talking to you guys,” Jason quickly said and grabbed Adele’s hand before quickly disappearing from the elevator and out of sight of the three travel buddies.

“Nice to meet you!” the second girl called back to Jason before turning to her friends.

“That was kinda weird, though he looked kinda hot, and also, his eyes were weird,” the girl said thoughtfully.

“Exactly! Who do you know that is African-American with long curly hair, has blue eyes, and could give those Korean idols a run for their money when it comes to comparing face cards?” the girl who had recognized Jason face-palmed.

“Wait!? Don’t tell me?” The guy suddenly remembered someone who fitted the bill.

His eyes widened and he rushed out of the elevator hoping to catch a glance of Jason and go after him to ask for an autograph, but Jason was already nowhere to be seen.

“Some fan you are, you couldn’t even recognize the guy you’ve been talking about to us every day for the last year,” the first girl scoffed at the guy, but the guy had no words and could only put his head in his hands.

After Jason’s appearance in the world of football in his debut against Leverkusen, the guy had fallen for Jason’s skills and character and had always followed every news about him.

As a matter of fact, they had just landed in Turin yesterday and the major reason for him coming to Turin instead of going to his home in Milan was because he knew that Jason had joined Uventus on loan and he had been watching to watch some of the matches live while hoping that Jason would feature in one of the coming games.

Yet the same person he had been hoping to meet for the last year had just appeared and disappeared in front of him and he had not even recognized him.

The guy did not know whether to laugh or cry.
