After noticing that there was no movement inside the car, Gordon continued to kick it several times.
Isabellaâs heart tightened with each sound, beating until it stopped functioning.
Finally, when Gordon grew tired, the door opened.
However, the person who emerged was not Seth, but an expressionless Ollie.
With that, everyone let out a sigh of relief, and Isabella immediately came back to life. âThank God itâs not Seth,â she thought.
Following that, Ollie bent over and spoke into the car. âMr. Shaffer, you can come out now.â
Isabella was shocked.
There was a collective gasp as the crowd instinctively took two steps back.
Chapter 132 How About A Competition Seth emerged from the other side of the car, standing tall. Even though he was slightly taller than Gordon and was standing behind a car, his restrained dominance and oppression felt more lethal than Gordonâs obvious anger.
âDidnât Xavier ever teach you to behave yourself when youâre outside?â
The manâs chilling voice resonated, instantly causing the atmosphere to drop a few degrees. Coincidentally, a storm cloud passed by, covering the sunlight. The previously sunny and clear sky darkened, making the crowd feel depressed and anxious.
Meanwhile, Isabella stood in front of the car. She wanted to intervene and mediate the situation, but suddenly, she felt afraid to do so. Even she had to be cautious around Seth, so how could she dare to speak up for Gordon?
âDidnât your father teach you not to put on airs outside?â Gordon mimicked Sethâs tone and retorted.
Inside, Isabella was screaming, cursing at Gordon. âIsnât that nonsense? If Seth canât put on airs, then who in the entire Imperia can? Weâre all in the same situation, but none of us started from the same starting line. How can 08:38 Tue, 2 Jan M Chapter 132 How About A Competition you mimic his tone? Are you insane?â
However, Seth didnât even spare Gordon a glance, probably unwilling to engage with the misbehaving kid. He walked past her without even acknowledging her presence.
Afterward, Selena got out of the car and hurried after him, followed by Ollie and two teams of bodyguards. And just like that, the group passed by Isabella.
âHow about a competition?â Gordon suddenly spoke up when the group had walked some distance away.
Hearing that, Isabella was shocked and suspected that the guy had lost his mind. Why else would he be so insistent on provoking Seth?
Seth indeed stopped in his tracks before the crowd.
Isabella closed her eyes and unconsciously moved to the side.
Sethâs gaze swept across Isabellaâs face before settling on Gordon, who was 08:38 Tue, 2 Jan Chapter 132 How About A Competition not far away. He spoke up. âYouâre asking me to compete with you?â
Gordon looked arrogant as he took a step forward. âAre you scared?â
It was clearly a provocation, and based on Isabellaâs understanding of Seth, she knew he wouldnât agree to such childish games. However, to her surprise, Seth responded, asking, âWhat do you want to compete over?â
Isabellaâs eyes widened as she was once again taken aback. The crowd had excited looks on their faces and didnât even dare to blink, afraid of missing any exciting moments.
âSince weâre at a race track, of course we should race cars.â Gordon hadnât even finished speaking when Christopher, dressed in red, appeared from behind, adding fuel to the fire.
At that point, Isabellaâs distaste for Christopher had reached its peak.
Compared to her disgust for Louis, she looked down on people who used underhanded tricks.
Seth pursed his lips and didnât reply immediately. His gaze inadvertently Chapter 132 How About A Competition scanned the surroundings.
âSince itâs a competition, what will you do if you lose?â The manâs cold gaze seemed to trap Gordon, exuding a strong aura. The competition hadnât even begun, but it felt like Seth had already won.
Knowing about Sethâs driving skills, Isabella desperately tried to convey a message to Gordon with her eyes, hoping he would stop causing trouble for himself.
âIf I lose, you can make me do whatever you want.â Gordon spoke without thinking, convinced that someone like Seth, who spent his entire day in the conference room, could never possess good driving skills.
Isabellaâs shoulders slumped as she lost all hope.
âAre you going to race cars?â Jonas suddenly appeared, his eyes filled with cunning. âThen our company should provide a prize.â Rubbing his hands together, he brushed off the two protagonistsâ disregard for him and continued, âCoincidentally, our company just received a new Cayenne. Iâll make that car the prize for this competition!â
Chapter 132 How About A Competition It was just a car. Not to mention Seth and Gordon, even the crowd at the scene didnât care about the prize.
Only Isabellaâs eyes lit up. She knew about that Cayenne. It was red and looked cool, and she had fallen in love with it at first sight. Unfortunately, she couldnât afford it. But now, there was a chance before her. She would win the car if she won the competition.
âEnough with the nonsense, letâs get inside the arena.â Gordon was fed up with Jonas and wanted to give him a few kicks.
âWait a moment.â Isabella suddenly raised her hand.
Her action caught everyoneâs attention, and she received curious gazes.
Sethâs gaze, from behind several circles of the crowd, was more intense than anyone elseâs.
Summoning her courage, she smiled and asked him, âMr. Shaffer, can⦠I join the competition?â
