Chapter 68 - A High-Speed Adventure
Marco and Adam leaped out of the stands in a fury after witnessing Benno''s beating at the hands of
Arthur. They lost the money they had paid to Benno and a considerable amount of money on the bet
they''d ced.
“What the hell, Benno!” Marco shouted. “How could you do this to me? I want a rematch! I''m convinced
Arthur cheated; this result is uneptable!”
Marco attempted to lunge at Benno but was stopped by two enormous bodyguards.
"I''m not willing to give up my two billion dors. This car race isn''t fair—Arthur tricked us into believing
he couldn''t drive. This is definitely fraud, and we shouldn''t be subjected to it."
Adam was also voicing his displeasure over the oue of the match.
“Move it, you hulking guards! Do you think I''m scared of you?” Marco shouted, trying fruitlessly to
shove Alpha''s body aside.
Alpha simply smiled, barely suppressing a chuckle. "Is that the best you can do, my lord?" he asked
mockingly.
Thewyer who had been acting as a mediator for the bet walked between them and, in his self-
assured tone, tried to exin. "I believe this match was conducted fairly and no cheating was found.
Therefore, I hereby dere Mr. Arthur Gardner the winner and he is entitled to all prizes ording to
the agreement previously made and signed."
"I cannot ept the result of this match!" Marco yelled furiously at Benno. "How could you lose to an
amateur like Arthur? You''re supposed to be a professional! Are you THAT stupid to lose to him? Return
the money I paid you!" he demanded, his voiceced with anger.
Marco then attempted to escape from Alpha, but his efforts were futile. Alpha was toorge and strong,
rendering Marco powerless.
Adam, who had no more grievances to express, suddenly dropped to his knees, trembling and on the
verge of passing out. "My two billion dors..." he murmured in despair. "No...my money...give me back
my money..." he pleaded, his voice barely audible.
Arthur slowly advanced toward Marco, maintaining a safe distance that prevented Marco from getting
close to him. "And, one more reward for me," he said. "I''ll collect it at ater date,"
Arthur stated, referring to their agreement, that Marco would kneel and apologize to him. He thought it
would be more suitable when he requested it at a better time and situation.
Arthur spun around as Edna rushed up to him, taking his arm with a smile. "Congrattions on your
victory, boss," she said. "Are you going to take me out for a romantic dinner to celebrate?"
Arthur slowly nodded and smiled. "Sure, why not? I''ll treat all of you to dinner wherever you like; you
can even choose the menu and the ce."
Edna''s face lit up with joy. "That would be great! Could you maybe also invite udina and Alicia? It
would be more fun if everyone got together for dinner, don''t you think?"
"Oh, udina and Alicia?" Arthur asked in surprise.
Edna nodded, her grin widening. "Yes, why not?"
"Sure," Arthur nodded. "That would be fine. Please invite udina too, if she has the time to meet us."
"I''m sure," Edna replied with a warm smile, "udina will do anything to rearrange all of her ns if
you invite her, boss."Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Arthur stopped, spun around, and tossed his car keys to Benno. "Take this car home; I want to take
Edna in the other one."
Benno held up the key to the luxury car and nced at Arthur. "You sure you don''t mind, boss?"
"Of course," Arthur replied casually. "We can take care of the work contractter. You don''t mind, do
you?”
"No, not at all!" Benno eximed excitedly. "Thanks, boss. I''m now officially your personal driver!"
Benno dashed over to Arthur''s Bugatti car, admiring its luxurious exterior before hopping in.
A smile spread across his face. “Yes,” he thought. “Finally, I have a purpose in life.”
[You''ve really imparted a life-changing lesson to Benno]
[This small shift in perspective is a huge leap toward greater things for him]
[As a result, you''ll be rewarded with 10 VIP points!]
As they drove away from the racetrack, Edna was still in high spirits after Arthur''s victory.
"I have some more good news for you, boss," Edna said, finally calming down.
"Oh? What is it?" Arthur asked.
"I''ve managed to secure all of the shares and ownership of that Brownpany. You are now the sole
owner of that business," Edna replied proudly.
"Excellent work, Edna. Thank you very much."
Edna beamed with joy as she felt proud of her aplishment and even more so that Arthur had
praised her. For Edna, this was a major aplishment; she always worked hard to make Arthur
proud.
“And boss….” She continued, turning to Arthur. "I have one more piece of good news for you," she said
excitedly.
"Yes, what is it?"
"You once discussed recruiting the best people you would hire to build your business empire. And this
rtes to the biggest entrepreneur event, Business Takeover. I have sessfully secured your position
to be one of the potential investors on the show. You will be one of several major investors in this
prestigious event.”
Arthur was taken aback by the news Edna was telling him. "You figured out what I wanted without me
even asking. How did you do that?" he asked in astonishment.
Edna shed a wide grin and nodded vigorously. "I put my heart and soul into it, boss. Don''t I deserve
a bit more appreciation?"
Arthur reached out his right hand and patted Edna''s hair tenderly, causing her to be suddenly and
inexplicably quiet.
She shook her head rapidly, unable to process his action, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
"Boss... You''re too much," she stammered. "I''m not ready for this!" she eximed.
"Ah, I think girls like it when their heads are patted,"
Arthur said casually, yet Edna was still clearly blushing.
"Yes, but this is too sudden," she stammered, feeling flustered. "I don''t know how to respond now."
Arthur chuckled, amusement evident in his voice.
"Then let''s find a ce to eat," he suggested, an inviting smile on his face.
"Okay," Edna agreed, her nervousness beginning to subside. "Let''s go...."
