Just as the man opened his mouth and was about to say something, he saw a familiar figure by the corner of his eyes. The latter had walked over to Nicole’s side and had stood somewhat affectionately beside her.
The young man immediately gawked. “M-Mr. J-Johnston?” Jared casually twirled Nicole’s hair with his fingertips and did not even deign to give the young man a look as he said, “Take my car out and let her use it.”
‘WHAT?’
The young man had seen generous people before but had never seen someone so generous before.
Giving such an amateur an intermediate level car was already equivalent to giving her the best. The young man had not expected Jared Johnston to let her drive his personal ride.
“Mr. Johnston, but that’s…”
A Koenigsegg, the most top-of-the-line sports car in the world.
It only needed 2.58 seconds to go from zero to a hundred kilometers per hour. It was build using the most high-end of carbon fiber and was the lightest of them all. It could reach a top speed of 900 and was considered the pinnacle of sport cars, being regarded as the soul of all sport cars.
Yet, for him to let this girl drive such a car, the young man’s face was trembling. It was deplorable.
Yet, this was Jared’s request, and he had no right to refuse, much less saying no.
The top-of-the-line supercars by the side were already in their positions with only a few standing outside, seemingly waiting for the race to start. A few of them impatiently shouted at the registration booth.
“Eh, Mack, what’s the matter over there? Why aren’t we starting yet?”
The young man quickly wiped the sweat off his forehead as he yelled back at the jeering crowd. “Shut up! What’s the hurry? You want to meet your maker that badly?”
Almost all of these people were from prestigious families of San Joto and had formed this car club for fun. There was no such thing as courtesy between these people. After all, their status was all about the same, it would be abnormal if they were too polite to one another.
The person being called Mack turned around and look at Jared and his voice became much more respectful. He then reconfirmed with Jared, “Mr. Johnston, you mean to take your car out and have this, uh, lady, drive it?”
Jared gave a faint “Yeah.” He had finally deigned to shift his gaze from Nicole onto Mack as he asked, “How many people today?”
“Fifteen, so far.” Mack replied.
Fifteen?
The corners of Jared’s lips raised. “That’s enough. Start the round. I’ll be the dealer.”
‘WHAT?’
This time, Mack was really flabbergasted. Normally they would wait until at least about twenty -five before starting the round. It was only then they would be sure to make a profit.
“But with Jared being the dealer…’
‘Alright!’ Mack gritted his teeth. In any case, with this woman around they would lose money for sure, so if there’s someone else to take over, he was all for it.
“Well, you’re the boss!” As they spoke, the Koenigsegg was brought out from the garage, the purple- gray car was low key yet exquisite at the same time, carrying with it the roar of cold steel. The car was placed on the sixteenth starting lane, the last spot. Trying to get first place was almost impossible but it also had the least of risks.
This was the safest method Mack had chosen out of consideration of Nicole’s safety.
He was very sure that Jared’s attitude towards this girl was unusual, and he cannot let anything happen to her here. Nicole’s expression was impassive as ever. She looked at this beautiful car and asked, “Is this yours?”
