Logan mentally grumbled, ‘Is Daxton trying to embarrass me? Of all times, why must he win right after I said I would secure first place for Elysia?’

Logan was usually the best driver in their group, so getting beaten by Daxton today was completely humiliating, especially in front of Elysia.

“Logan, did you lose and now feel too ashamed to face your buddies?” Daxton teased, and the crowd erupted in laughter.

At that moment, the remaining luxury cars crossed the finish line and came to a graceful stop. Each driver opened their doors and stepped out; Logan did the same. After all, it was just one race he had lost–he could accept that.

It was just a brief setback; he had never lost in the racing world before. He felt that losing the race allowed him to be upset. He turned to Daxton with sincerity, declaring, “I accept my defeat.”

Then, he walked over to Elysia, saying, “Elysia, I wasn’t able to secure first place for you this time. Would you let me make it up to you in the future?”

Before he could finish, Daxton interjected, “Why wait for the future? Let’s have another race tonight.”

Not one to back down, Logan replied defiantly, “Alright, let’s do it tonight.” He started walking toward his sports car.

However, before he could take another step, Cassius grabbed his arm. “Do you two always need to compete? Why not try something a bit more fun?”

Intrigued, Daxton asked, “What do you mean by fun?”

“It’s simple. Each of you picks one girl from this group to represent you in a race. Whoever wins claims the victory. How does that sound?”

“Now that’s interesting,” Daxton exclaimed, scanning the gathered girls. “Surely none of you can’t drive?”

Laughter erupted from the girls; they were all part of the same crowd–everyone could drive. But then again, maybe one of them really couldn’t. All eyes turned to Elysia, wondering if she could.

Noticing the attention on Elysia, Daxton teased, “Elysia, can you drive?”

heart raced at Daxton’s question. He had seen Elysia ride a motorcycle, but he had never witnessed her driving a car. This was a race; even if she could drive, maybe she could not handle the pressure and crashed.
