Chapter 70 Going Full Throttle Finished âOlivia, this bet of yours is way too risky!â Lucas thought Olivia must be crazy. Flow can she think of first place with Benjamin and Hudson in the racet Benjamin and Hudson both looked mildly amused at Oliviaâs challenge.
It was soon time to race, and a dozen or so cars were already at the starting line. Amongst a line of powerful, majestic race cars, the pink GTR covered in Hello Kitty stickers caught everyoneâs eyes.
âOh my, where did this car come from? It looks like a haleous mascot!â
âYou must be joking. Someoneâs actually using this car to race?â
âTd be embarrassed just driving that car out Hudson and Benjamin each walked to their cars. The appearance of the two racing legends instantly caused a commotion.
âThe almighty Benjamin!â
âHudson, youâre simply amazing!â
The cheers and applause for the two rose into a crescendo as a group of gorgeouslyâdressed women screamed excitedly for their arrival. Their popularity was off the charts.
Amidst the cheers, Olivia walked up to the pink GTR, drawing a fair bit of attention toward her.
âI was wondering whoâd drive a pink car like that. Turns out itâs a girl...â
âGirls just love pink and flashy stuff. Such a waste of this modified GTR to turn it into something so tacky.
âAm I mistaken thereâs a woman competing today? Is this a joke?â
âWhatâs a woman doing in a race like this!â
Unlike the praise showered upon Hudson and Benjamin, everyone jeered right away when they saw Olivia.
Standing beside his red Ferrari, James looked on smugly as Olivia was ridiculed by the crowd. He deliberately said londly, âOlivia, you really have the nerve to claim youâll take first place. And based on what? That pink toy of yours?â
Jamesâs words quickly reached the ears of the onlookers, and upon hearing that Olivia claimed sheâd take first place, everyone was incredulous.
âHow much did she drink to talk like this?â
âA woman actually dares to say sheâll take first place?â
âWomen should just sit quietly in the passenger seat. Whatâs she doing here, kicking up a fuss?â
A group of men laughed mockingly at Olivia.
A group of women laughed as well seeing Olivia in her Tâshirt and jeans and glasses. One of them said 1/2 11:15 Sat, Jan 4 Chapter 70 Going Full Throttle car?â
#Finished That remark kickâstarted another wave of laughter. Everyone present, regardless of gender, thought Olivia was a joke.
James was very satisfied with the crowdâs reaction. He looked at Olivia and said, âOlivia, if you admit defeat now, itâs still not too late. Otherwise, when the race stars and you canât even see everyone elseâs tail lights, itâll be a huge embarrassment.â
âIf you can see my tail lights, it means Iâve lost,â Olivia said before opening the car door and getting in.
âUgh, stop pretending.â James got into his car as well.
All the drivers were now ready in their cars, and the starter took his place. As soon as the starting signal was sounded, over a dozen cars roared their engines and shot forward like rockets!
Alice and Lucas had rushed to the live broadcast screen early on. The massive screen displayed dozens of split views, capturing each and every car in the race.
On the screen, all the cars moved off simultaneously. Benjamin and Hudsonâs cars took the lead, heading the pack. The two cars were neck and neck, separated by less than half a tireâs distance.
Just as everyone was anxiously watching to see which of the two would pull ahead, on a winding mountain road, a pink GTR drifted past the bend at an astonishing speed, hugging the canal and overtaking both Benjamin and Hudsonâs cars in an instant!
