Charlie had always thought that Zoe could not drive a racing car at all.
That was why he rejected her request without hesitation when she first brought it up.
Later, although he agreed to the bet, he didn’t expect too much in his heart.
Who knew, Natalia was really good at car racing!
When Charlie looked at the car that was tailing him, he naturally thought about the lady who wore a mask and hid shyly behind Zoe a few minutes ago.
Her eyes were like a pair of hook made of aged wine, and it easily evoked complex and painful emotions from the bottom of his heart.
“Damn it!”
“How dare she show up in front of me!”
Charlie punched the steering wheel, and his face was gloomy as hell.
“She wants to have a meal with me?”
“Hah! In her dreams!”
He curled his lips into a grim smile as he looked into the rearview mirror once more.
The car behind him continued following him closely, which made it evident that the racer was rather skillful.
Nonetheless, so what if Natalia was skilled?
He would not lose!
Charlie was determined not to give that woman the chance to get close to him again and hurt him!!
Thinking of this, Charlie’s foot hit the accelerator to speed up.
In the car behind, Natalia looked at the car that suddenly picked up speed in front of him with a calm face.
‘Tsk, buddy, you seem very agitated. Looks like you’re set on winning!”
‘Sadly, you’re unlucky to meet me today!”
Soon, there would be a 90-degree sharp turn ahead.
Since Zoe had been keeping track of the time, she figured that it was about time.
A stern look could be seen on her face as she suddenly stepped on the accelerator and swished to the side of Charlie with a beautiful drift turn.
Inside the car, the man was obviously surprised.
The grave expression on his face seemed colder than before.
Charlie pressed his foot on the accelerator to speed up again.
Zoe followed suit.
Outside the track, members from both teams were stupefied when they watched the game through the big screen.
“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!”
Finally, someone’s on par with Charlie!
It was so frightening! It was so exciting!
Although there was no winner yet, at least someone had broken the myth that Charlie was an unsurpassable racer.
Of course, the members from the Black Horse were the most excited.
Originally, they were not optimistic about Natalia’s performance, but they didn’t expect that they would be given such a huge surprise!
“Oh my God, the speed of hand movement, her calmness! Even Bro Nathan four years ago wasn’t this great, okay?’
“Ah, Bro Nathan is forever the best… Mm… Although that’s only what we think.”
The two racers were near the finishing line, but they were still next to each other, neither of them willing to give way to the other.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Charlie secretly picked up his speed again to make a final spurt.
However, the car beside him suddenly rumbled, and his opponent moved faster and swooshed past him.
Charlie widened his eyes.
“Damn it!”
“That woman beat me to it!”
It was too late for him to further speed up, and they passed the finishing line almost at the
same time. In the end, Black Horse Team won with a 0. 04 seconds lead!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Unbelievable
The car-racing god, who had been the champion for four consecutive years, was actually surpassed by a girl!
“Oh my god! What breaking news is this? It’s so exciting!”
The crowd fell silent for a few seconds before cheers and screams flooded the venue.
It happened so fast that everyone could not react to in time.
Once the crowd realized what happened, they saw Charlie exit his car with a dark face.
Zoe also got off the car, wearing a smile. She removed her helmet, flipped her long ponytail in a cool manner, causing countless men to be enchanted by her heroic charm.
Holding the helmet, she went to the Black Horse Team and said to Nathan with a smile, “How was it? I did not lie to you, did I?”
Nathan looked at her with a complicated look.
As for the other team members, they were more exhilarated.
A group of people surrounded Natalia. If it was not because the gender difference, they would have raised her up and hurrahed.
The awards ceremony took place after the race ended.
Zoe, the well-deserved champion, was pushed onto the stage by her teammates.
Despite that, the participants joined the competition as a team; hence the glory naturally went to her team.
When Zoe received the award, Charlie and his teammates had already left.
“Director Hale, will you fulfill your promise?”
Nathan looked at her and nodded firmly.
“You made it, and I’ll keep my word too, but I have been working on The Youth for many years. If the second supporting female role acts not well, it may ruin the whole play.”
“So I only give you a chance for a fair competition. If you have the talent, you will have the role. Otherwise, I won’t let you have it even if I’ll be accused of eating my own words.”
Zoe chuckled.
“Of course, I didn’t expect to win the role with a single race anyway. You can rest assured. I just want a fair chance to compete. When will you be available? I will bring someone to the audition.”
Nathan nodded, “Let’s do it tomorrow morning! I’ll wait for you at my office.”
“Okay, deal!”
After making the appointment with Nathan, Zoe finally remembered Victoria.
Nevertheless, she could not spot her best friend no matter how many times she looked.
Zoe thought Victoria was with the Julio Eagle team.
But she only saw Charlie with a gloomy face went inside, surrounded by his teammates. there was no sign of Victoria.
Zoe could not help but frown.
Where did Victoria go?
Zoe took out her phone to call Victoria, but nobody picked up. Feeling helpless, she could only ask the Black Horse members to help look for her best friend Victoria.
After all, the racetrack was at a rather remote place. Victoria was a young female celebrity, so it would be difficult to manage if something happened.
Natalia and the others were looking for Victoria everywhere…
In the parking lot.
Victoria bent over as she quietly made her way to her car.
She took the key out of her pocket and unlocked the car so that she could get in.
All of a sudden, an arm reached over the top of her head as someone slammed the door down.
Victoria’s heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, when she turned around, she saw the man standing behind her with stern eyes.
It was silent around them. Compared to the clamorous scene at the racetrack, the parking lot was desolate.
The dim street lamps shone from afar, like a few cooked egg yolks in the pitch-black night sky. Instead of being bright and warm, they gave off a cold and lonely feel.
Victoria forced a smile and straightened her back.
“Why did you come out?”
She lowered her head to avoid Charlie’s eyes. Though she was trying hard to stay calm, the tension in her body and the quiver in her voice showed her nervousness.
Charlie withdrew his hand and put it into his pocket. He looked down at her from above in a domineering manner.
The handsome man did not seem gentle at all; a cold and wild look could be seen on his craggy face. When he kept a straight face, he seemed indifferent and chilly.
“Don’t you want to have dinner with me? She won the champion, why are you running away?”
