out the words through gritted teeth. “You did it on purpose!”
Lenore threw the helmet into the car, casually replied to a message on her phone, and then said nonchalantly. “So what if I did?”
Such arrogant conceit, acting as if no one else mattered. That’s when Gillian realized that maybe, from the beginning, Lenore hadn’t considered her worth their attention at all
Wayne had warned her, but she didn’t believe him. She even bet all her savings, insisting on a best–of–three match. All those before now felt like slaps, hitting her hard across the face.
Gillian couldn’t say anything, veins bulging on her hands, almost crushing the stopwatch.

“Gillian lost again..
“By just one second.
“The first time was luck, but what about the second?”
“Based on the girl’s performance earlier, it seemed like she was deliberately holding back against Gillian, not even using all her strength.. This wasn’t just i ignoring someone; it was a form of humiliation. Being crushed into the ground kind of humiliation.
“I’m here, what’s the show?” Somehow, out of nowhere, a man appeared up in the stands. He was wearing a light blue shirt and silver–rimmed glasses, with handsome features, giving off a cultured, intellectual vibe.
Wayne glanced at him. “With your speed, you couldn’t even catch a hot meal while it’s still warm”
Josiah, who immediately dropped everything to come watch the scene, was left speechless. He thought. That doesn’t sound like a good word: He gave Wayne a hard kick. “Go to hell? Then he greeted Silas, “Hey, Silas”

Silas nodded, but his eyes stayed on Lenore walking toward them backlit by the sun. He took Lenore was striking and beautiful, radiating a natural wildness.

Josiah opened his mouth and asked, “How did she win?” Then he realized it was a pointless question. He felt frustrated for waiting at that red light carlier, otherwise, he could have seen more of the race.
Lenore took the thermos and drank a couple of sips before slowly starting to explain. “She bet everything she had and turned it into a best–of- three. That’s why there was a second round.
