Although Hedd was only twenty-six years old, he had been in the car racing scene for the past eight years and he didn’t think anything much of a race like this.
Despite that, the man opposite him, Toby, was fearless and insisted on challenging him to a race. Is there a need to be so petty just over one woman? I’ll just return her to him when I’m bored with her.
On the other side, Toby’s teammates asked him, “Are you confident?”
“Yes, about eighty percent,” he answered assertively. If he backed down at a time like this, then he would really become a loser. Also, he couldn’t hold his head up high anymore if he lost in this race after his girlfriend had been snatched from him.
“You can win this,” his teammates encouraged, despite the fact that they all knew he was facing a tough opponent and it would be difficult to win the race.
Subsequently, the race officially began.
With her eyes glued to the screen the whole time, Janet was eager to find out the skills of the top racer from Barnsford. So, she watched seriously while resting her chin on her palm and pouting her lips.
On the screen, the race cars took off at the same time and disappeared from the starting line. After twists and turns, Hedd’s car overtook Toby’s and the gap between them grew larger and larger.
While watching the big screen, everyone roared wildly like beasts, “Hedd is amazing! It’s not surprising that Toby’s girlfriend left him for Hedd.”
“That’s true, he’s amazing. I would choose Hedd over Toby as well.”
Janet shook her head at their comments, thinking to herself, What’s wrong with society nowadays? Are they siding with the antagonist just because he’s good-looking? Moreover, Toby isn’t that bad. Based on his driving skills, he is already a hundred times better than Henry.
The jeers from the audience seemed to have provoked Toby and he pressed his foot down on the gas pedal, his silver car successfully overtaking Hedd.
“Young Master Hedd!” people in the audience screamed. “That loser is catching up!”
In a split second, Hedd’s smirk disappeared and his face fell. Melancholy flashed in his eyes as he stared ahead at Toby’s silver car.
Suddenly, he sped up and both cars began to chase after each other while the audience held their breaths unwittingly.
The visual impact was so strong that it felt as though the cars would burst out of the screen the next moment.
So who would be the winner of this race?
With both his hands clenching the steering wheel tightly, Hedd made a quick turn and he licked the corners of his lips like he could already taste the victory.
Sure enough, his car sped forward at a high speed and overtook Toby’s silver car as everyone watched that moment calmly.
“Wow! He won, Hedd won!”
“Ah, he’s amazing!”
“Young Master Hedd is simply awesome!”
Raising her brows slightly, Janet was impressed, thinking, Hedd does have some skills.
Seeing that the racer from his own circuit had lost the race, Henry and Mason went to comfort him with Janet tagging along.
Meanwhile on the racetrack, Hedd rushed to Toby and snorted, “I can’t believe you had the cheek to challenge me with those skills.”
Even the crowd began making fun of him. “The racers in Sandfort have really bad driving skills.”
“It’s horrible. Is there anyone else in this race track who can win me?”
“It’s not surprising that his girlfriend was snatched by another! It’s because he has bad skills!”
Balling up his palms tightly, Toby was so ashamed after losing his girlfriend as well as the race.
“Hey loser, call me ‘Lord’ on your social media for ten consecutive days,” Hedd said, shaming him even further.
It was all Toby could do to stop himself from passing out from the rage inside when he took in all their sneers.
At that moment, a man’s voice echoed through the awkward scene, “You want the racer from my circuit to apologize to you?” Mason’s voice was low and he sounded dangerous as he spoke.
Seeing the arrival of his bosses, Toby lowered his head and greeted them, “Hello Young Master Moss and Young Master Mason!”
Hedd narrowed his eyes and surveyed the two men and the woman with a small frame in front of him. Since he didn’t know who Mason was, he scoffed, “So the people in Sandfort don’t admit their defeat?”
