Tequila was on the brink of disqualification for lacking a co-driver?
The news sent shockwaves through the crowd.
Sadie crossed her arms and scoffed, “She’s just here for the spotlight. Showing up without a co-driver? She’s played herself. She had it coming!”
“Declan, do you think it’s a problem if Miss Moore can’t compete?”
Eliana appeared somewhat disappointed.
“Miss Moore doesn’t need to gamble her life on a race. It’s probably for the best that she didn’t bring a co-driver, so she can exit the competition.”
“Humph!” Sadie huffed.
“I bet she intentionally skipped on bringing a co-driver, just to have an easy out after her little show!”
Declan’s gaze was locked onto Hannah’s image on the screen.
Witnessing the determination in her expression, he sensed that Hannah wasn’t what others claimed her to be. If she could, she would race alone.
As this thought crossed his mind, an inexplicable sense of sadness enveloped him.
The audience burst into a chorus of jeers and mockery, amused by Hannah’s audacity.

She’s out before the race even starts. How boring!”
“Whoever bet half a billion on her must be devastated. She didn’t even kick off the race, and now they’re down a billion!”
“What a waste! Had that person bet on a promising rookie, there might be a chance that they could rake it in. Now they’re not only broke but also look like a complete idiot.”
“Exactly. I’d love to find out who was foolish enough to stake 500 million on her.”
At that moment, tension permeated the atmosphere of the race.
Simultaneously, Cyril smacked his lips and sneered at Hannah, “Getting disqualified might be a blessing in disguise for you. At least you’ll live to see another day!”
“After years of being away, your sudden return delighted me, only to learn you might bow out before the race even begins.”
Cyril knocked his knuckles on the roof of Hannah’s car and quipped, “So, you chickened out and decided not to bring a co-driver, did you?”
Hannah glanced at the official beside her.
“Is there no alternative?
Can I pick someone who’s only signed up for doubles to be my co- driver?”
