Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Stay Away from Her!

Jean and Ben arrived at the racing venue ahead of time. After changing into their attire, they strolled into the fields but were greeted by loud screeching as two bright-colored cars revved into the arena.

Jean watched the cars warily as Jonathan and Brad got out of the car. These men were at the Luminance Club when I went to talk to Edgar. They must be his men. Are they here to participate in the race?

Jean felt uneasy in their presence, but more than ever, she felt someone’s gaze upon her. Who was it?

After checking their cars a final time with Ben, Jean stood in the warm sunlight, which caressed her like a mother’s embrace. Suddenly, she shuddered when she felt the chilling gaze turn stone cold like a blade.

Unsettled, she scanned the crowd around her, then up the balconies and froze in shock when she saw the person glaring at her.

Fear gripped her as the world around her melted away, deafening her from Ben’s calls.

“Jean, let’s go!” Seeing her staring into the skies, he called out to her again in concern.

“Jean?”

Jean gasped, as if she was pulled out of the waters. She turned towards Ben slowly, then nodded.

They got into their car as the countdown began. Upon the bang of the starting pistol, all the cars at the starting point roared into life and dashed away.

However, Jean, who was seated in the passenger seat, stared blankly at the tracks as her mind lingered upon Edgar’s steel cold face.

“Jean, where is the obstacle?” Ben yelled nervously, startling Jean into action.

When Jean’s gaze focused, her hands flew to her mouth in shock as she realized that the obstacle was too close for comfort.

Taking a deep breath, she tried to instruct Ben without showing her nervousness. “The obstacle is to our left. Slow down and set your steering wheel straight ahead.”

Ben reacted to the situation perfectly, but the side of the car scraped against the obstacle, showering sparks.
