A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Four headlights at the entrance to the racetrack flicked on like a demon’s eyes in the night, illuminating the entire racetrack in a wretched white color.

Chris, who had been watching the battle nervously, couldn’t help turning his head to look in the direction of the blinding white lights.

Two figures emerged from the lights.

They strode over in a vertical line. One was in white while the other was in black.

The white figure looked elegant with its clothes rolled up.

The black one, on the other hand, was a handsome and solemn man who didn’t have one hair that was out of place.

“Leo? Toby?” Chris hurriedly called out and went over the moment he recognized them.

“What brings the two of you here?”

Walking in front, Leo had a blank expression on his serious face. He didn’t respond to Chris’ words as his dark gaze swept over the racetrack.

“You wanted to race, no? Why aren’t you on the racing track?” Toby’s gentle eyes were a stark contrast to Leo’s.

There was a small smile on his graceful face.

Chris grabbed a handful of hair and lamented, “I did for one round! But I lost…”

“Oh? Someone actually beat the Chris Alston! Which amazing person was it?” Toby asked out of curiosity.

He apparently didn’t know who Chris was here for tonight.

The more questions he asked, the more embarrassed Chris felt. Chris’ head was hanging low when he muttered, “Who else? Of course, it’s A-Amelie. Ashton came up with the stupid idea to cover our right eye. I lost by three seconds.”

Even the three seconds were what Amelie spared him.

Chris was overwhelmed by shame the more he thought about it.

He initially thought that Toby would tease him for it. To his surprise, Toby’s face suddenly fell. “What did you say?”

As soon as he said that, Toby grabbed Chris by the collar and yanked hard.

Confused, Chris peered at Toby dazedly. “W-What’s the matter, Toby?” he choked out. The face in front of him was thunderous.

With his mouth pressed in a thin line, Toby looked as if he wanted to gobble someone up.

Chris had never seen Toby acting so menacingly before.

Toby only managed to stop himself from throwing a punch at Chris’ face by pursing his lips and calming down.

“Damn it!” He shoved Chris away.
