“Boss, we calculated correctly. We successfully blocked them from behind,” the driver said, turning back to Isaiah Clarke.
Blocking Robin Bailey and his team was not a coincidence; it was planned. They could have taken a different route, but Isaiah Clarke insisted on this one to block Robin Bailey’s convoy and make them fall behind. Later, everyone would assume those remaining cars were part of their wedding procession-no attention, no sense of involvement. It was satisfying.
Isaiah Clarke could already imagine Elise Houry’s displeased expression.
“Isaiah, you’re really clever,” Snowy Houry, dressed in a wedding outfit, said beside him. However, today, she looked more radiant than usual, with a slight flush on her face and a hint of allure in her eyes. Isaiah Clarke didn’t think much of it; he assumed Snowy Houry was happy today or that her makeup was particularly effective, making her look flushed. Little did he know that it was Eliott Garner’s doing last night.
Meanwhile, Eliott Garner was still in the car behind, not serving as a groomsman but merely attending the wedding as a family member.
“Isaiah, I bet Elise Houry is furious. Just imagining her expression makes me so happy,” Snowy Houry said, leaning against Isaiah Clarke and blowing hot air on his neck.
Suddenly, Isaiah Clarke felt a bit restless. He glanced at Snowy Houry, who looked enticing, and if they weren’t in the wedding car, he would have taken her right there. But small gestures were still permissible.
However, just as he was about to make a move, a black car swiftly passed by them, followed by a second, third, and fourth car, leaving Isaiah Clarke dumbfounded.
Where did these cars come from?
At that moment, the driver in front gasped and said, “Boss, those cars belong to Elise Houry. They have ‘wedding’ signs hanging in front. They appeared in front of us.”
“What?!” Isaiah Clarke’s face turned pale. “Repeat that. You’re telling me those are their cars? We have almost blocked this road with dozens of cars behind us, how did they come in front? Did they fly here?”
“I’ll ask right away,” the driver said, equally bewildered.
He hadn’t expected these cars to appear in front of them either.
But after inquiring with others, he couldn’t hide his astonishment and finally turned to Isaiah Clarke with a wry smile, saying, “Young master, they bypassed us. One car at a time, they overtook us.”
“They overtook us?!” Isaiah Clarke’s face turned dark, pointing outside. “We blocked them, and now there’s only this narrow road left. How did they overtake us? Are you joking? If you’re driving, could you overtake them?”
“I… I can’t… but they did overtake us,” the driver said, helplessly. He couldn’t explain it either. Moreover, everyone behind them confirmed the same-they were overtaken. One person might deceive, but it was unlikely that everyone would. There was no point in deception in such a situation.
“I…” Isaiah Clarke’s face remained gloomy. He wanted to get angry, but he didn’t know whom to vent his anger on. He had worked hard to calculate and block Robin Bailey, but unexpectedly, they had been overtaken. Moreover, when he looked ahead, Robin Bailey’s convoy was already in front. This time, it was Robin Bailey’s team blocking them.
“Pass the order down. If they can overtake, so can we. Overtake them,” Isaiah Clarke said firmly.
“But…” the driver wanted to say something but was silenced by Isaiah Clarke’s stern gaze.
The boss is furious right now.
We’ll wait until he calms down before saying anything.
However, he still passed on Isaiah Clarke’s message. Shortly after, there was a loud bang, and an anxious voice came immediately through the intercom: “Boss, it’s not possible. We crashed the wedding car into a wall.”
The wedding car crashed into a wall.
It’s a bad omen.
Isaiah Clarke’s face grew even darker, and he immediately shouted, “How did they surpass you?”
I also want to know.
The person on the intercom wanted to say that.
He couldn’t figure it out either. It was just a small road, and on top of that, it was a dangerous mountain road. How did they manage to surpass and avoid crashing?
He truly couldn’t understand.
Are they all racing gods?
They drive so skillfully.
He considered himself a skilled driver, but compared to those people, he was instantly reduced to dust.
However, he guessed right. Almost everyone over there was a racing god.
They all admired Robin Bailey, the legendary mountain racing god. The true racing gods had arrived.
In the end, he didn’t say anything. He didn’t dare.
“You guys are a bunch of idiots. I don’t care, just surpass them,” Isaiah Clarke angrily demanded.
After all, he came from a prestigious family, and what matters most to a prestigious family is their reputation.
In this circle, reputation is crucial.
At that moment, their driver said, “Boss, they’re accelerating.”
“Chase them.”
Isaiah Clarke refused to give up.
He immediately gave the order.
Initially, they could still see the taillights of the other cars, but as they chased, the taillights disappeared. Suddenly, Isaiah Clarke’s face turned black, but he was lucky. They had run far ahead, and no one would think they were the tail-end of the group.
In reality, it was Robin Bailey’s order to accelerate.
Because he knew someone had crashed behind them, and he knew it was surely Isaiah Clarke’s command. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have the audacity to overtake in such a dangerous place.
Continuing like this would only lead to casualties.
Robin Bailey didn’t want any bloodshed on this joyous day.
So, he ordered them to accelerate.
He couldn’t be bothered with them anymore.
Isaiah Clarke, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. He was somewhat glad that Elise Houry was indecisive. Women, in matters of action, are ultimately not as ruthless as men. He didn’t expect Elise Houry to be like that too.
An hour later.
They arrived at the city center.
The Emperor Grand Hotel, the largest hotel in Stillwater.
Although they had been driving for an hour, no one felt bored. Instead, they were all enjoying this wedding day, well, at least the people on Robin Bailey’s side were. The same couldn’t be said for Isaiah Clarke’s side.
They were about to explode with anger on the road.
And when a large group of cars arrived at the hotel’s entrance, Isaiah Clarke and his group rushed in from behind. They saw Robin Bailey and his entourage on the upper floor, instantly feeling frustrated. But when they saw the magnificent hotel, their confidence returned in an instant.
Although they hadn’t won the race.
In this hotel, it was definitely Isaiah Clarke’s territory. With everything arranged according to his wishes, there was no doubt that he could crush Elise Houry and that security guard without any suspense.
“Waiter, our floor,” Isaiah Clarke walked over and pulled out a gold card.
He was a super VIP here, able to access any floor below the fifth floor at any time.
However, the waiter shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, sir. Our boss said that today our hotel has been booked exclusively by a VIP. We’re not open for regular business.”
“Not open?”
Isaiah Clarke froze in place, dumbfounded.
What are you saying?
Not open?
Have you all gone mad?
