Chapter 263
Lila tossed a bank card into Elizabeth's bucket and said, "I'm betting on Elizabeth to win, ten times."
Gregory was taken aback for a second.
Then he rolled his eyes and joked, "I don't get rich people. Someone's giving free money to the club again!"
"Hey," Lila snapped at Gregory, annoyed. "If the red team wins, you won't back out, right?"
Gregory rolled his eyes again, thinking, 'The club never backs out on bets!'
"Let's talk when she wins!" Gregory said, clearly dismissive.
People around laughed. "Is someone really betting on the red team?"
"Yeah, must be someone with more money than brains."
Felix and Lila exchanged a look.
Someone pointed out, "Look, they're at the starting line."
Elizabeth grabbed her helmet, eyes locked on Victor.
Eaglecrest Mountain was the toughest route. Only the skilled dared to race here.
Elizabeth had a sense of Victor's skills, but Victor knew nothing about hers.
Seeing Elizabeth's long legs get into the car, Victor felt a bit nervous.
"Victor, go for it!" Gregory shouted from the top of the mountain, his voice echoing.
Victor looked up to see Gregory waving the club's flag and shouting, "Go for it!"
Others joined in, cheering.
Victor felt a surge of confidence. 'It's just a woman. I've run this route so many times and always come in first. I'm not afraid!'
Victor glanced at Elizabeth one more time, put on his helmet, and got into his car.
Elizabeth patted the steering wheel of the modified supercar. It looked pretty good.
She didn't have a car, so she borrowed one. Judging by who drove it over, it seemed professional.
A girl holding a flag stood in front of Elizabeth.
"Need a test drive?" the girl asked.
Elizabeth shook her head. "No need."
Victor rolled down his window and said, "You should test it. Don't say I bullied you later."
He was in his usual car, but Elizabeth's was borrowed.
If Elizabeth used the excuse of not knowing the car to argue against his win, he wouldn't be satisfied.
"No need," Elizabeth said firmly.
A sports car only had a few different feels, after all.
Victor frowned, finding Elizabeth harder to read.
Feeling puzzled, he rolled up his window.
Elizabeth fastened her seatbelt, waiting for the race to start.
The atmosphere at Eaglecrest Mountain hit its peak, and everyone was pumped.
The interesting part wasn't the race itself but that the loser had to cut off a finger!
Cheers echoed through the forest, spreading across the winding Eaglecrest Mountain.
A Bugatti Veyron pulled up, and two men in casual clothes and hats got out.
Everyone glanced at them briefly and then focused back on the race.
Kieran shook his wrist, hands in his pockets, looking at the crowd. "Why's it so lively today?"
Alexander walked ahead, standing at a higher spot. Looking down, he saw two cars ready to start.
Alexander thought, 'Only two cars? Isn't this supposed to be a big event?'
Kieran also found it odd and asked the person next to him, "Who's racing?"
The person smiled and replied, "Today's race is interesting. It's a woman against WK Club champion, Victor!"
Alexander raised his eyes.
"A woman?" Kieran was intrigued.
The person nodded. "I heard it's..."
