The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress

Chapter 652

Wade was a little taken aback by all the attention, almost as if he couldn't believe his luck. He glanced at his little sister and couldn't help but smile, feeling like a champion who'd just won a hard-fought battle.

Just then, Curry flung an arm around Wade's shoulders, grinning from ear to ear. "Come on, Wade, spill it-how on earth did you manage to run the whole course today? That's not like you!"

"Yeah, tell us! We want to know too!" Curry's words instantly drew everyone's attention. All eyes zeroed in on Wade, eager for his answer.

Wade broke into a smile, his eyes lighting up as he looked over at his sister. "Honestly, if it weren't for Citrine, I never would've finished the race so smoothly today."

The night before the race, Wade had tossed and turned restlessly in bed. Unable to sleep, he finally got up and wandered into the backyard to get some air.

As luck would have it, he bumped into Citrine, who had just finished a phone call out there.

They nearly ran into each other. Citrine was visibly surprised to see him. "Wade, you've got a big race tomorrow. Why aren't you in bed?"
