Chapter 151
Night fell.
The lights of a top-tier racetrack on the outskirts of Vaelion City blazed brightly.
Security was tight, cordoning off the area. Only those with credentials could get in. It was Hailey’s first time in a place like this.
Her ears were filled with the thumping beat of electronic music and the thunderous roar of engines rising and falling.
She was a little curious and a little scared, clutching Adrian’s arm tightly. Her eyes, accentuated with carefully applied makeup, darted around.
She had the look of an innocent little lamb stumbling into a pack of wolves.
And men, they certainly ate that up.
“Scared p>
Adrian looked down, his chiseled face and sharp jawline appearing even more imposing under the bright lights.
Hailey tilted her head up, her innocent eyes filled with adoration as she looked at him and shook her head. “With you here, Adrian, I’m not afraid p>
Ever since the Lancaster family had canceled their partnership with the Wynn family, Titancrest Group and NovaForge Capital had successively announced they were pulling all funding and collaboration with the Wynns.
Following that, countless other companies, large and small, had terminated their contracts with the Wynn family.
The Wynn family was now in an extremely precarious position.
The slightest push could bring the whole thing crashing down.
Hailey was determined to hold on to Adrian. If she could just marry into the Cole family and become a society wife before the Wynns collapsed p>
Whatever happened to the Wynn family after that would have nothing to do with her.
She knew exactly what kind of man Adrian was a classic alpha male who thought he was the greatest thing in the world.
The way to handle a man like that was to make him feel that she was completely his, that she depended on him, that she would die for him.
And with that exact strategy, she had reeled Adrian in.
Hailey had done her homework long before trying to win Adrian over, memorizing every detail about him.
She knew just what he liked to hear “Adrian, you have to do your best n the warm-up race later! I’ll be waiting for you to win first place and give me the prize p>
Adrian patted her on the head and chuckled, his eyes sweeping over the various heavy-duty motorcycles on the track. “Of course p>
Beside them, Adrian’s cronies immediately started to hype him up.
“There’s no doubt Mr. Cole will take the championship! You know, his idol is Skye, the goddess of racing who won the international championship four years ago! Mr. Cole has studied all of Skye’s techniques, and now… he’s practically on her level p>
“Last time Mr. Cole used the
Dragon’s Tail, the same move Skye used in that face in Caldorial Flo completely wiped the floor with the
He
other professional racers p>
“Adrian really dotes on you, Hailey. You wanted the champion’s prize, so he came to compete p>
“Don’t you worry, the prize is as good as yours with Adrian on the track p>
Hailey’s face flushed, her eyes shimmering with adoration and innocence as she gazed at Adrian without blinking.
The love in her eyes was practically overflowing. “Adrian is the best p>
Adrian’s eyebrow twitched. He tried to remain nonchalant, but the confident smirk on his lips was undeniable.
If it were Serena p>
She would never encourage him or cheer for him like Hailey did, giving him that emotional boost.
Serena would just stand there blankly like a nanny, waiting for him to get on the track before tidying his racing suit and adjusting his helmet.
