Chapter 466
They had just entered.
There was still time to turn around.
But they couldn't after another two bends.
At this time, a foreign female racer came out from the changing room at the back.
"There's no use.Once they enter the racecourse, the wireless won't work"
"What?"
Sonny widened his eyes.
Wouldn't it mean that during the competition, all the racers had to be in control of the necessary facts? Including the car speed, the external conditions, and sudden weather changes! Sonny panicked.He didn't know what to do.
The female racer looked at Jean's car and snorted with a smile before she got into the car and chased after Jean.
This was the charm of the hellish racecourse.
No one could leave unscathed.
Otherwise, how would the underground casinos earn so much yearly from this competition? While Sonny was panicking, Jean and Ben realized that something wasn't right at the same time on the racecourse.
Ben was worried and looked in Jean's direction through the rearview mirror, but the racecourse was filled with dust.
He couldn't tell where she was.
A few turns later, the situation became more chaotic.
There were even some racers whose cars had overturned in sand pits.
The racers crawled out of their vehicles as they swore.
More and more people gathered in the stands.
Even if it was a practice race, it was exciting.
"Look there! Someone has caught up."
"What's going on? They don't have the skills at all.Are they really racers?"
On the other hand, Jean wasn't surprised that the wireless couldn't work.
She had done ample research before she came, and she had hoped for an accident.
So that she could make the child silently disappear forever.
Even if the man were suspicious someday, he wouldn't be able to find any trace! With her helmet on, Jean continued to drive toward a set target.
"It's just in front.It's at the turning on the right..."
Just as she was about to speed up, one of the wheels sunk into a sand pit.
The car shuddered violently and sped toward the grass at the side.She had been too slow in turning the steering wheel. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"That's not right."
A car blocked hers at that critical moment.
It was successfully cushioned under her.
When Jean came to her senses, her car had come to a forced stop.
As for the other car, it overturned.
When staff members rushed over, it was filled with smoke.
Ben ran from the front.
"Jeannie, are you alright?"
Jean kept looking at the overturned car and her brows furrowed.
Did she experience an illusion?
"Jeannie?"
Ben called her again.
Jean only came to her senses at this moment.She nodded.
"I'm alright, but that car...If he didn't rush over in time, I would have been in trouble by now"
This was part of her plan.
But she had never thought of dragging other people into this.
And judging the situation just now, she felt that it wasn't an accident.
That person shielded her deliberately.
No matter how much Jean thought about it, she felt slightly guilty.
"Ben, can I trouble Sonny to check and see which team that racer belongs to?" Jean asked with a frown.
Although this was just a practice race, that person did it subconsciously.She wanted to thank him in person regardless of if it was logical or emotional.
As for Ben, he didn't know what had happened specifically, but since Jean asked, he immediately answered, "Sure.The staff here need to take care of the situation.Let's go so we won't disturb them."
"Alright."
Seeing that they had rescued the racer, Jean left, reassured.
Two hours later, Miles stood in a hospital room with a medical records file in his hands, looking at his boss, who had just awoken.
"Mr.Royden, you were too impulsive today.The doctor said if you were just a little further, you would have been in big trouble!"
Miles had been so worried that his heart was about to beat out of his chest when he was in the stands.
But Edgar had instructed him not to show his face.
If Jean recognized him, he wouldn't receive a one-year salary bonus.
So Miles had no other choice but to disguise himself in the stands.
Miles would never have imagined that Edgar would do such a dangerous thing and protect Jean with his car, not even in Miles’ dreams.
The man didn't have much energy and just answered indifferently.
Miles sighed.
"There's news from the company.Pinnacle Group has snatched away the gold mine contract.And as you expected, there was a problem with the contract, and the trade union alliance is bringing a lawsuit against Pinnacle Group"
"It's a complicated situation because this involves the newly amended law.Mr.and Mrs.Summer have rushed over."
Miles reported everything truthfully.
These were long within Edgar's expectations.
There was no movement in his deep eyes.He said coldly, "Meet with Ben when you return to the hotel.Tell him that..."
Before he could finish, a nurse's voice rang at the door.
"There's a Ms.Eyer here to see you."
Edgar immediately furrowed his brows and signaled to Miles.
Miles couldn't come to his senses at that moment.
Jean's voice was heard at the door.
"I'm the racer you saved this afternoon on the racecourse.I heard that you've awoken, so I wanted to thank you in person."
"I'm very sorry if I've disturbed you."
Jean's indistinct figure could be seen behind the frosted glass.
Edgar was half-lying in the hospital bed.He looked in that direction in a daze.He didn't say anything or answer the door for a long time.
If he opened the door at this time, he was afraid that she would get in a huff.He wouldn't be able to stop her then.
But at least now he knew that she didn't have as innocent a reason as Ben to join the competition.
Hearing nothing in the hospital room, Jean could only turn away.
"Nurse, may I trouble you to pass this to him?"
Jean handed the nurse some fruits and turned to look at the empty slot on the wall where the patient's name was supposed to be.
Sonny had asked the competition organizer and found out that the racer didn't belong to any team.He registered at the last minute yesterday.
Conventionally, such racers wouldn't be allowed to join.
But the scheduling team of the competition had agreed.
It was clear that this person was of a certain background and power.
But Sonny wasn't able to find out the person's name or even nationality.
Such a mysterious racer appeared behind her car and even helped her.
Was it a coincidence? Jean furrowed her brows and walked to the elevators.
In the next few days, there would come a time when she would see this person's face.
At that moment, Ben, sitting in a car outside waiting for her, furrowed his brows when he saw a text message on his cell phone.
When the car door opened, he threw his cell phone behind him at once.
Jean was startled when she saw his panicked manner.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing.I think an insect flew past; Ben said before he coughed and looked at her.
"Did you manage to take a look at the mysterious driver?"
