Chapter 855

Buzz would bet his life that this girl was infinitely better than Mina.

Mina had actually fought to win her race.

The rider in front of him wasn’t even breaking a sweat!

As the finish line rapidly approached, Buzz boiled with impotent rage, completely powerless to stop Claire.

The harsh reality finally set in—he had messed with the wrong person.

He had let the million-dollar bounty and her stunning looks cloud his judgment.

His own misogyny had dug this grave!

Thinking back, if she didn’t have the skills to back it up, why would Owen so casually throw down a million-dollar wager?

A million dollars wasn’t pocket change. Owen was rich, not stupid.

The guy hadn’t flinched once, proving he knew exactly what she was capable of.

Buzz was the only one being played for an absolute fool!

His ego shattered, Buzz finally gave up, letting his bike decelerate in the final stretch.

He knew that no amount of speed would get him past her.

He had brought this entirely on himself.

It was far too late to back out now.

Owen would never give him the chance!

The utterly defeated man crossing the finish line was a stark contrast to the arrogant prick from earlier.

“Yes! She won!”

Cami and her live chat erupted in cheers.

Mina stared at Claire, deep in thought, as she effortlessly pulled up to the finish line.

Owen clapped loudly, immensely proud of his cousin.

Even Manager Miller was looking at Claire with profound intrigue.

He walked over to Owen. “Your cousin is unbelievable. Why haven’t you put her in a race before?”

“How unbelievable?” Owen asked, clearly recognizing her immense talent himself.

A girl who used to recklessly blast through the countryside in the middle of the night clearly needed serious skills to survive.

He remembered his mother taking

her to a film set, where she had vaulted into a runaway car to save an A-list actor. That kind of insane bravery didn’t come out of nowhere.

How did she build up that kind of nerve?

Tonight finally offered an explanation.

This was another detail completely missing from his grandfather’s intelligence report.

It seemed his young cousin lived a fascinating double life.

Watching the way she mercilessly toyed with Buzz on the track proved she had nerves of steel and a wicked sense of humor.

“You’ve been around the track enough; you had to have noticed, right?”

Manager Miller’s gaze drifted toward Buzz, who was trailing dejectedly behind She had absolute pinpoint control over her speed. It means she wasn’t even taking this seriously.”

She hadn’t just held back—she hadn’t even started trying.

Meanwhile, Buzz had completely maxed out.

Even though he already knew his family was exceptional, Owen loved hearing someone praise his cousin.

“Oh, she’s just messing around. She’s a genius at academics, so she picks everything up quickly.”

Manager Miller caught the unmistakable brag.

“She’s still a student?” he asked, playing along.

“Yep. Heading to college this year,” Owen said, a genuine smile softening his features.

“That’s seriously impressive.” Manager Miller gave him a thumbs-up.

Privately, he thought to himself that wealth really bred a different kind of monster. Only bored, filthy-rich kids had the time to become this

obscenely talented at such a young age.

Owen just smiled, deciding not to elaborate.

He didn’t share Claire’s background with just anyone.

The manager wouldn’t be crossing paths with her in the future, so there was no need to spill their family secrets.

“Do I need to remind the loser what happens next?”

Claire asked, turning to the despondent racer without even taking off her helmet.

Buzz?

He froze. Real panic finally clawed at his chest.

Honoring this bet meant his life in the racing circuit was officially over.
