Chapter 470:
Ethan didn’t bother looking at her and curtly said, “Race p>
This mountain pass was infamous for its sharp turns curled above steep cliffs. The tarmac was smooth and fast, daring anyone to take it head-on.
Hardly anyone came up here, but every street racer in the city knew this road. The moment Jade’s invitation arrived, its meaning had been clear. Ethan and Brenna had understood Jade’s intention as soon as they saw the location.
“I’ve prepared something… special,” Jade said, her eyes gleaming with cruel delight.
“What could possibly top racing here? Did you plan something lethal?” Brenna said. She kept her gaze locked on Jade, catching the slight flare in her pupils. She could see through Jade. This wasn’t about winning. It was about getting rid of her. Jade wanted to humiliate her—or worse, get her killed.
For a moment, Jade’s sneer slipped. She had assumed Brenna was too soft to handle a real race. But that vulnerability was just a mask. This woman had taken down trained men alongside Thiago. She had even killed Viper without blinking.
Who moved through violence with that kind of grace? Only the devil could.
And tonight, Jade planned to kill the devil dressed in human skin. But first, she needed Brenna to race her. Her crimson lips curved into a challenge as she sneered, “What’s the matter, Miss Harper? Scared of a little race p>
Brenna laughed, cold and sharp as the mountain wind. “You’re trying to provoke me into joining the race p>
“You’ve never raced before, right?” Jade trailed her fingers along the roof of her car like it was a prized stallion. “The thrill of hitting 200 on these curves… unforgettable p>
Brenna turned to Ethan and muttered, “She’s planning my crash. She thinks that after she kills me, she can claim you p>
Ethan’s icy gaze swept over Jade. He had already seen through her.

“And who exactly are you challenging?” he asked Jade. “Do you want to race me or Brenna p>
Jade’s eyes gleamed. “Now that’s a question worth asking. I’m thinking of something a little… inventive. I wonder if you’ll agree to it p>
Ethan didn’t blink. He knew how malicious she was. “I’m not doing anything that puts Brenna in danger p>
Just then, three more cars rolled up.
Brenna recognized them immediately.
Jayceon stepped out first, followed by Denis. Then Ernst appeared—with unexpected company—Lilith.
Lilith stepped from the passenger seat, wrapped in a cloud of citrus perfume.
A moment later, Isabella got out of Denis’s car.
Isabella looked pleased with herself, draped in designer clothes and glittering jewelry. She had the glow of someone who had been living well.
However, her mood soured the moment her eyes landed on Brenna. Trouble always seemed to follow whenever they crossed paths. Isabella gave Brenna a quick, dismissive glance and scoffed.
