Chapter 331
Xavier and Caleb took their seats in the stands right as the practice game began .
They weren’t familiar with racing , and they didn’t know who to support .
But after listening to the commentary , they found out that Racer 38 , CC , and two others were favorites to win .
The kicker ? CC was the only woman in the race . So naturally , she drew a lot of attention .
Besides , she pulled off two stumming overtakes on the curves that had the crowd roaring .
Xavier couldn’t hold back . “Holy crap , she’s got serious guts . That was so cool ! ”
Jorge , knowing Xavier didn’t realize CC was actually Wynn , just gave a faint knowing smile upon hearing that . CC came in first in both rounds .
Xavier blurted out , “ Who even is this CC ? I want to meet her ! ”
Right then , the camera cut to CC stepping out of the car and removing her helmet – when he saw it was Wynn , Xavier’s jaw nearly hit the floor .
“ She’s CC ? No way ! ”
The shock was quickly replaced by despair . “ I was literally going to ask her out . And now you’re telling me she’s actually Trevor’s girlfriend ? ”
Well , that was a game over for Xavier .
The realization hit him hard , and he slumped . Still , he muttered enviously , “ So , this is the kind of life Trevor’s enjoying , huh ? ”
At that moment , Wynn spotted them .
She was slightly surprised to see Caleb there too .
Walking over , she said with a smile , “ Mr. Robinson , Mr. Jennings , Mr. York – I didn’t know you guys were into racing . ”
Jorge responded first . “ We weren’t , really . You mentioned before , and since we happened to be free , we figured we’d come to see what it was all about . ”
Then , he added , “ You were incredible out there . First place in both rounds , eh ? Congrats . ”
Smiling . Wynn thanked him .
Caleb chimed in , “ Congrats . ”
“ Thanks , ” she replied , turning to Caleb . “ It’s been a while , hasn’t it? When I saw you from afar earlier , I thought I was seeing things . ”
“ Work’s been hectic ; I don’t have much time to rest , ” said Caleb .
Hearing that , Wynn asked , “ I heard you’re a pilot , Mr. Jennings . Compared to flying jets , doesn’t racing seem kind of tame ? ”
“ Racing has its own kind of thrill . There’s no need to compare , and you were really impressive out there , Ms. Locket . ”

Wynn smiled at Caleb’s compliment .
Jorge then spoke up . “ By the way , where’s Mr. Fleming ? Didn’t he come to watch you race ? ”
“ He had something to take care of , so he couldn’t make it today . But he’ll definitely be there for the real thing . ”
Wynn added , “ If you guys are free , then , I’d love to see you there . ”
Jorge nodded . “ I’ll definitely come if I’m free . !

And he meant it he wanted to watch her race for real . However , with Trevor also showing up …
That did complicate things for him .
It was Saturday morning , and Celeste woke up early .
She powered on her laptop to check some model data and had barely started when her phone lit up .
It was Kieran .
A few days ago , he had pitched an idea at work that she thought was promising . She had already assigned some resources to it and was keeping a close eye on the progress herself .
They had been in regular contact because of it and naturally exchanged numbers .
Seeing his name pop up on the screen , she figured it was something work – related – and picked up .
But Kieran wasn’t calling for work ; he just wanted to know if there was anything fun to do in Baumond .
“ What I like might not be your thing . Don’t you have friends here ? Wouldn’t it be easier to ask them ? ” Celeste replied .
“ They all recommended stuff I’m not interested in . ”
Kieran paused , then added , “ I hear typing . Are you workin ”
“ Yeah . ”
“ Seriously , are you planning to spend the whole weekend at home ? ”
Still focused on her screen , Celeste said , “ I’m going to see a play with my granny tonight . ”
