Chapter 55 Chapter 55 1 Cismon remembered contri correctly , the two men wete NEW chackup racers who shard recently joined the team .
Their skills were decent , but their personal lives were notoriously messy .
Not long ago , a pregnant woman had stormed into the teams headquarters , demanding to know which of the two was the father of her child .
The incident had entaged the team leader , who punished them by banning them from participating in any races for three months .
They were only invited to todays victory party as a courtesy , yet here they were , stirring up trouble again .
Damon conudered stepping in to stop them but pauseid mid step : thought .
Why should I care ? Noelle has insisted on coming and claimed she could take care of herself .
If something happened , it would be her own fault not my responsibility : If he intervened .
Lesa might misinterpret his actions and think he was siding with Noelle .
That would devastate Leia He thought .
No.
I cant get involved .
Theres no reason for me to do so Just as Damon was struggling internally , a drunken teammate stumbled over and threw an arm around him .
Damon ! What are you doing over here ! Come on , youre the star tonight .
Lets drink ! The trammate dragged Damon back to the party .
Damon haltheartedly followed but couldnt help glancing back toward Noelle .
From the comer of his eye , he saw the two scumbags still pressuring her to drink .
Noelle youre amazing ! Five bottles already ! Baker watched in disbelief as Noelle downed her fifth boule of champagne .
Sure , the champagne wasnt particularly strong at first sap , but its aftereffects packed a punch .
Most women would be passed out after just one bottle , yet Noelle had polished off five without batting an eye ... I told you she can hold her Liquor ! Lets keep going Jarari Cannon popped open another bottle and poured it into Noelles glass .
Erick gave Jamari a look .
( Dude , are we still doing this ! ] Jamani replied with a shrug ( Why not ? Shes not drunk yri .

Lainan ( Who cares ? The teams paying for it I Erick : What if something happen to her ? ] Janan ( Kelax.
Damon doesnt care , and well just take her away quietly .
No one will know I Fræk hentated but finally relented ( Alright , keep going Niselle , one more glass , Jamari coaxed , pouring her another drink .
beautiful ryes were slightly lazy , adding an unintentional allure that no more .
Noelle shook her head , her fair checks flushed a rosy red .
Her beaut inade her look almost enchanting What a grin .
Jamani dhaought , hús excitement g growing Whats s wrong .
Noeller Feeling dizzy ? Finally , after five bottles of champagne , was she about to pass out ? No.
I need to the the bathroom , Noelle and , wobbling to her feet .
Oh , the bathroon ? Sure , well take you there , Jamari offered , reaching out to steady her .
But Noelle dodged his hand .
I dont need your help .
I can walk by myself ப 9:32 AM c Chapter 55 Alright , be careful .
Jamari smiled sheepishly but mentally planned to take her to a hotel as soon as she returned .
Herschanged a look with Erick , and the three of them left the party hall Not long after .
Damon suddenly returned to the area where Noelle had been drinking No matter how much he dishked Noelle , he couldnt just leave her to fend for herself , especially with two guys like Erick and Jamari .
If they succeeded in taking advantage of her , her life would be ruined But when Damon arrived , the three of them were gone .
Where were they ? His heart sank .
Where were they ? In just a few minutes , they had disappeared .
Images of the hysterical pregnant woman who had confronted the team flashed in his mind .
He imagined Noelle meeting a similar fate , and a cold sweat broke out on his back His chest felt tight , like a weight was pressing on it , making it hard to breathe .

His hands trembled so much that he nearly dropped the device .
Frantically , Damon pulled out his p When he finally dialed , neither of them answered .

Please try again later ... The automated message played , cold and indifferent .
Damn i Damon cursed The two bastards werent answering their phones .
Desperate , Damon tried to call Noelle , only to realize he didnt have her number saved Damn it ! Damon muttered through gritted teeth .
He was on the verge of losing his temper .
His only option was to call Eli , who he knew was close to Noelle .

Damon , whats up ? Did you win your race today ? Give me Noelles number , Damon demanded without explanation .
Huh ? Why do you need Noelles number all of a sudden ? Eli asked , confused .
Just give it to me .

Stop wasting time , Damon snapped .
Though puzzled , Eli eventually relented and gave him the number .
Before Damon could hung up .
El asked , Wait , did something happen to Noelle ? Why are you so frantic ? Damon hesitated , his face darkening After a p a pause , he said , Nothing happened .
Then he ended the call With Norlies number in hand , Damon dialed immediately , practically praying as he waited for her to pick up .
Please .
Please let her be safe , Damon thought After a few tense seconds , the call connected .
Hello ? Noelles soft , sliglaly slurred voice came through .
Whos this ? Hearing laer voice , Dagon felt an immense weight lift off his chest .
He let out a relieved breath and said , Noelle Olc Damon ! Noelle exclaimed , surprised .

What the Damon swore loudly .
His anger boiled over as he imagined Erick and Jamari laying their hands on her .
Which hotel ? Whats the room number : Noelle , sounding like a child caught in a mistake , gave him the address .
Without wasting a second , Damon rushed over .
When Damon arrived at the hotel , he was sweating and out of breath .
He pounded on the door with his fist , ready to give Erick and Jamari the beating of a lifetime , The door opened a crack , and Noelles head peeked out .
She looked at him sheepishly and said in a soft voice .
Damon , youre here ... Where are they Damon demanded , pushing the door open .
Noelle followed him inside , her voice small .
Theyre over there ... lying down .
Oh , theyre just lying down , huh ? Damon sneered , expecting to find the two men lounging on the bed .
Hut as he stepped further into the room , he froze .
Erick and Jamari were sprawled on the floor , beaten to a pulp .
Both were unconscious , their faces bruised and swollen , with several teeth missing .
What ... what happened here ? Damon stammered .

I didnt expect them to be so fragile ... Damon was speechless .
