‘Seriously?’
All the audience widened their mouth while watching. The Honda turned around to fly out of the fence at the hairpin bend. No. 1 was on the turn below the Honda.
However, Honda flew in mid-air while speeding up. It rushed out of the race track.
All the audience wondered if it would be doomed, their hearts in their mouth.
The bend where Timothy was passing through was 20 feet below. If the Honda missed it, it would be damaged, and the driver wouldn’t survive.
A loud bang sounded.
“The Honda landed! It landed successfully on the ground. What a miracle! I’ve been a car racing anchor for eight years, but I’ve never seen a scene like this. The Honda flew in the air and landed steadily. Gosh! The driver is awesome! Whoa! It passed the line. The Honda won! He’s our new champion! The new Deity of Mount Kory!” the anchor used up all his strength to announce the result as his voice had been hoarse.
He had never seen another driver driving this way.
He called Robin the Deity of Mount Kory because the mountain in this area was named Mount Kory. The nickname was more famous than the champion of the underground race rack. From then on, the Honda would become a legend of Mount Kory.
“How could it happen?”
Timothy gaped at the Honda as he was just a second later than the Honda to arrive at the destination. He looked at the vertical distance between the two bends, which was at least 20 feet. He didn’t think another car could have done that.
Besides, it was a Honda.
He wondered if the driver had risked his life to win or if he was too adept at driving and too bold.
However, Timothy realized he had lost. As the annual champion for six years, he was defeated by a Honda. From then on, he wouldn’t be the Deity of Mount Kory. The thought upset Timothy.
The Honda was pulled over. Nina got off and could hardly keep her balance, staggering forward. Her cheeks were still rosy. She had been frightened in this match.
“We’ve won this match, Robin Bailey!”
Nina kept her balance and exhaled. Then she looked back at Robin.
“Call me dearest brother-in-law.”
“Why would I?”
“Didn’t you call me during the match? You don’t want to admit it after getting off the car, huh?”
“That only happened earlier. I don’t care. You don’t deserve Elise. I’ll never change my mind. This won’t happen again. I will kill myself if I admit you to be my brother-in-law again.”
Nina glared at him, planting her hands on her hips. She never admitted to being defeated but had to be obedient to Robin several times. She felt disgraced.
In her opinion, Robin didn’t deserve to be Elise’s husband, so she refused to admit he was her brother-in-law.
“This will never happen again. Never!”
Nina curled her lips, looking unconvinced.
While Robin wanted to speak, a man walked to Robin and bowed at him. “Mist, my master would like to meet you.”
“Who’s your master?”
“Timothy Buosont.”
After thinking for a moment, Robin said to Nina, “Go ahead to claim the reward. I’ll go find you later.”
“All right.”
Nina became excited. She could receive 60, 000 dollars, which was a lot of money for her. The most considerable amount she had received was the 100, 000 dollars from Doug.
She went to claim the award, hopping up and down.
“Show me the way.”
Robin nodded at the man, and the latter took him forward. After arriving at an office and entering, Robin saw Timothy sipping a red wine on the sofa.
Timothy had sharp eyes with a rock-hard face. He was 5’9″ with a figure similar to a model. Robin could tell his outfit was expensive, and the Rolex watch on his wrist would cost more than 20, 000 dollars.
Evidently, he was an elite from a wealthy family, different from the dandies.
“Robin Bailey, right? Please have a seat.”
Timothy flicked his hand at Robin.
Robin sat directly on the couch with his legs crossed.
“Your driving skill is awesome. After I’ve raced for many years, you are the first one who’s qualified to be my opponent. I checked your background earlier. You are a security guard making 800 bucks monthly. This salary doesn’t match your skill. I have an agreement. If you sign the contract with our club, you’ll earn 8, 000 dollars a month. 10 times more than your current salary. What do you think?”
Timothy pulled out an agreement and passed it to Robin.
Robin glanced at the agreement of a club, shaking his head. “Sorry, but I’m not interested in car racing. I just joined it for fun.”
Timothy was taken aback.
‘Not interested? How did you practice your driving skills? How could you have defeated me?’
Timothy couldn’t help doubting his own driving skills, looking annoyed.
He was a competent man from a wealthy family. After discovering Robin’s potential, he didn’t want to suppress him but wanted to sign a contract with him. However, Robin seemed to be too proud.
“Haha… Are you kidding me, Robin? It’s not funny,” Timothy sneered.
Opening his arms, he curled up on the sofa, lifted his eyebrow, and continued, “Do you know who I am, Robbin? I’m the oldest son of the Buosont family. We’re one of the most influential families in Stillwater. In fact, our family owns this underground race track, which brings us several-hundred-million-dollar profit annually.”
“If you signed the contract, you would be my subordinate. I would let you lead a good life. I can guarantee you won’t regret it.”
“This is your only chance. I won’t regret it if you deny it.”
With those words, Timothy gazed at Robin, waiting for his response.
Many people didn’t know his background, but he was one of Stillwater’s most competent affluent young men. The Buosont family owned an 80-story commercial building downtown.
If an ordinary man received such an offer, he would gratefully sign the contract.
However, Robin wasn’t ordinary.
“You asked me to be your subordinate? Well, even your father, Jason Buosont, dares not to talk to me like this.”
Robin shook his head and stood up. “Tim, please pass on my message to your father. If I have time, I’ll visit him. He cannot bug me without any important matter.”
Then he left the office.
Timothy was in a daze, pointing at himself. “Did he call me Tim?”
Instantly, anger surged in his chest. He was the oldest son of the Buosont family, the hair of one of the most influential families in Stillwater. Everyone fawned over him.
However, Robin called him Tim.
For some reason, Timothy noticed Robin’s attitude. After thinking for a while, he called his father, Jason Buosont, and said, “Dad, I met a guy… He even talked to you this way. I cannot bear his rudeness. Dad, I want…”
“What do you want?” Jason interrupted him suddenly.
“I want to teach him a lesson.”
Timothy seethed with rage.
However, Jason snapped at him, “Teach him a lesson? Who do you think you are? Do you know who he is? He was a high-ranking officer in my troop. He can make our family drop off the surface of the Earth by lifting a finger. Bastard! You’ve made such big trouble. You must apologize to him. I won’t let you inherit our Buosont family if he refuses to forgive you. I’ll kick you out.”
In the end, Jason roared at Timothy angrily.
