Chapter 501:
Rosie lingered at the door, not daring to step inside, worried that Ethan would discover her covert alliance with Jade. She pulled out her phone and shot a message to Jade.
“Brenna IS the racing legend ‘Night.’ She is a professional p>
Jade’s expression shifted instantly when she read the message, her eyes wide with disbelief. “No! This can’t be true!” she muttered under her breath. If this was true, Brenna wouldn’t need Ethan’s car; she would race with her own legendary vehicle and her elite team, the very combination that had bested Jade before.
“Forget it, then,” Jade said to Ethan, not wanting to waste more time on the matter. She walked away, each second slipping through her fingers like sand as she recalibrated her strategies.
Meanwhile, having meticulously reviewed Thiago’s materials, Brenna glanced at the clock. With calm precision, she gathered her gear and headed toward the changing rooms.
“Miss Harper p>
Neville approached her, keys in hand. “Mr. Mitchell’s car boasts exceptional specs. You should really consider taking it. I can show you to the garage p>
Brenna’s frosty gaze cut through his enthusiasm. “No thanks. I have my own car for the race p>
Neville hesitated, concern etching his features. “The safety features of Mr. Mitchell’s car are second to none. He said that no matter the results, safety is the most important. He is tied up with other commitments and can’t race today p>
Brenna adjusted her gloves, her resolve firm. “I appreciate the offer, but I’m familiar with my own car. Switching now would throw off my rhythm p>
Neville pressed on, still worried. “Miss Harper, you really don’t have to race. Wouldn’t it be wiser for you to watch from the sidelines with Mr. Mitchell p>
Silence was her only response as Brenna slipped into the changing area, leaving Neville no choice but to report back to Ethan.

After changing her clothes, Brenna spotted Jade inspecting a matte-black racer. The car’s aggressive lines shimmered ominously in the light.
“Back with my old rival,” Brenna commented, stopping beside the vehicle.
Jade turned to look at Brenna sharply. The distinctive design of Brenna’s racing suit sparked immediate recognition in Jade; Brenna was the mysterious competitor who had defeated her before.
“We meet again. I won’t show you mercy this time,” Jade declared, determination radiating from her.
Brenna’s eyes flicked to Jade’s car, a sleek beauty that outshone even the last one Jade had raced. She couldn’t help but wonder about its capabilities. “You can’t use your old car anymore?” she asked, recalling how Jade had nearly wrecked in a desperate attempt to beat her at Faronsl last time.
Brenna was a stranger to Jade’s true nature, yet she knew her ruthless racing tactics all too well. Their last showdown had laid bare Jade’s readiness to use any underhanded trick to clinch victory, even resorting to illegal vehicle modifications.
Brenna circled the matte-black racer, her fingertips trailing along its chassis. One practiced touch revealed the car’s enhancements to her.
