Chapter 36
Although it might not have looked like it, everyone was shocked by what Lily said.
Xavier glanced at Lily indifferently. He knew he was being used as a shield by her against her admirer.
So he coldly rejected her. “Not interested.”
In his view, these so-called car races were
vere just a
a game for little kids.
Upon hearing that, Lily immediately cast a pleading look at Linda. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Linda understood at once. Linda gently tugged at Xavier’s arm and whispered, “Xavier, can you help Lily this time? Please?”
Linda was well aware of the situation regarding Eric’s persistent pursuit of Lily.
When a close friend was in trouble, one had to help.
Just because the others dared not offend Eric didn’t mean Xavier wouldn’t dare either.
After all, her brother-in-law was the heir of the Cavanaugh clan in Starhaven. He surpassed Eric by miles in terms of identity and background. Eric was nothing to him.
“If you’re a man, accept my challenge”
Eric’s spirit was high. He was determined to compete with the man and eager for a showdown.
He was a rich second-generation, but he wasn’t one of those who fooled around.
He considered the idea of using numbers to gain advantage or bullying the weak foolish.
A real man, in his opinion, should openly defeat the opponent in front of the woman he liked in order to win back her heart.
His intentions were good. However, unfortunately for him, the reality was often harsh and cruel.
Unable to deny Linda’s stubborn request. Xavier responded. “How do you want to compete?”
Eric pointed to the mountainous road in the distance and chuckled. He said, “See that mountain road over there? Let’s have a 2v2 race, starting from the beginning. Whoever returns to the starting point first wins.”
Once Xavier understood the rules, he nodded. “Sure.”
“But we only have one car. What should we do?”
Linda, who had just realized, smacked herself on her forehead and stuck out her tongue,
As her words fell, a low roar of the engine of a car came. A brand-new Porsche supercar came to a slow stop before them.
A stunning woman in a tight-fitting dress stepped out of the car.
She had long, flowing hair, and a perfect hourglass figure. Including her generously proportioned bosom, her womanly curves were accentuated by the dress. Her breathtakingly beautiful face showed a light smile as she walked over to Xavier.
“Here”
Tossing the car key to Xavier, Cynthia opened the right side car door and slid into the passenger seat.
“Good heavens! How unfair is this? This is so unfair!”
“Just who is that man?”
With Cynthia’s arrival, there was a sensation at the venue again.
Lily’s cherry-like lips parted widely as she looked at Cynthia, who surpassed her in both figure and appearance. It caused a bitter and sweet sensation to spread in her heart.
The sweet part was that Xavier agreed to Eric’s challenge for her.
The bitter part was that another unbelievably beautiful woman appeared next to Xavier..
As for Linda, she remained very calm because she was well aware of her brother-in-law’s identity.
“That woman is just my brother-in-law’s secretary.”
Comforting herself, Linda pulled Lily into the red Ferrari.
Soon, four supercars lined up at the starting line. One was a Porsche Beyond Spectacular, one was a Ferrari F521, one was a Warrior GRT car, and the last one was an Audi RS13.
“Xavier, after the race starts, you go first. I’ll cover you from behind.”
Linda’s voice came through the intercom inside the car.
Xavier responded lightly with a “Drive safely” and said nothing more.
The race was about to begin.
“How dare to steal my Lily Cutie from me! You’re dead”
On the other side, sitting in the Warrior CRT car. Eric made a gesture of firing a gun toward Xavier
“Winston, make sure to tail them tightly after the race starts. As long as I win, the Audi RS13 will be yours.”
Eric picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke to the man in the Audi racing car.
This person was his buddy. Winston Black. He was also known as the car god in the northern part of Oceanheim.
“Eric, rest assured. With me, Winston, here, they won’t win, a cold voice came through the walkie- talkie.
Just then, the referee responsible for the countdown began.
Three, two, one, go
There was a loud roar of engines
The four supercars, almost at the same time, accelerated and rushed out.
The Warrior GRT car took the lead, closely followed by Xavier’s vehicle.
The Audi RS
The Audi RS13 ranked third, and Lily’s Ferrari hung at the end.
“Lily, hurry up! Accelerate! Accelerate…
Seeing that they were falling behind, Linda urgently urged.
On the other side, Lily snapped out of her daze and gritted her teeth. She burst out, “How dare you run in front of me! Watch how I overtake you.”
After saying that, she slammed the accelerator to the floor.
The Ferrari’s tail spewed out fire, and its speed instantly increased.
Soon, the distance between them and the other cars narrowed.
The Warrior GRT and the Porsche Beyond Spectacular, occupying the first position, alternated in the fierce competition.
The mountainous track was rugged. Every time a bend appeared, Xavier would take advantage of the
to close the gap with the Warrior GRT car.
Because, in the straight sections, the explosive power of the Warrior CRT car was too strong.
Xavier looked at the map on the navigation screen. The track on Autumn Mountain was 18.6 miles long-
In the midsection of this track, there was a nearly five-mile-long serpentine bend.
At that moment, Eric, who had once again overtaken Xavier by half a car length, looked arrogant. He raised his middle finger at him and moved his lips.
After leaving two deep skid marks on the ground, the wheels of the GRT car dashed on the straight racetrack with the grace of a cheetah
“Before a GRT car, you are fucking nothing!”
Reading Eric’s lip movements, Xavier grinned
“Hold on tight, Cynthia!”
With a light shout, Xavier put away his playful attitude and started to focus.
..
“You just give it your all, I’ll be fine, Cynthia said casually, sitting in the passenger seat.
As soon as these words were spoken, the two women in the Ferrari were no longer calm.
In the next moment, Lily angrily stomped on the accelerator repeatedly, disregarding the Ferrari.
There was a loud “bang.”
The Ferrari accidentally collided with the rear of the Audi RS18.
The Audi RS13 vehicle shook violently. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Ferrari flashed ahead.
Immediately, Lily raised a middle finger at the other party
Time quickly passed.
The four racing cars almost simultaneously reached the middle of the mountain.
“Linda, be careful here, Xavier reminded through the intercom.
He focused intently on driving the Porsche.
Soon, the first curve appeared.
There was a series of ear-piercing screeches.
The tires rubbed against the ground, emitting a loud squeal, accompanied by blue and white smoke.
At that moment, the Porsche Beyond Spectacular demonstrated its agile and light advantage.
In the second curve, the distance between the two cars was shortened to 50 feet
In the third curve, the distance was shortened to 39 feet.
In the eighth curve, the two racing cars were side by side.
The drivers’ gazes fell on the next curve.
The curvature of the ninth curve was close to a vertical angle.
Usually, it was impossible not to slow down when one encountered such a curve.
Moreover, at this point, the speeds of the two racing cars had already exceeded 200 miles per hour.
Seeing that Xavier showed no signs of slowing down, Eric went crazy. “I don’t believe you won’t slow down!”
Unexpectedly, Xavier lified a corner of his mouth. “It’s not impressive if you accelerate on a straight road. If you can overtake in curves, then you are really impressive”
