Chapter 73
Cecilia treated Jackson’s words as mere nonsense and ignored himpletely.
“How dare he order me? Who does he think he is? Besides, the bet-on agreement has been made
public. Even if Jackson wants to go back on his word, it would be toote now,” she
Seeing Cecilia ignore him, Jackson went straight to the garage where she was.
However, he was stopped outside the garage by a staff.
“Mr. Yancey, the garage is a private premise. You can’t enter it without the owner’s permission.”
Jackson’s expression darkened, and the bruise on the corner of his lip grew more pronounced.
“F**k off! I’m a shareholder of the racing track. There is no ce that I can’t go.”
“Mr. Yancey, as a shareholder, you must adhere to the rules and conduct yourself appropriately. If you
tre***ss onto the racing track, customers may filewsuits against the racing track for inadequate
supervision and invasion of their privacy.”
“Humph! You’re just a low-level employee. How dare you discuss thew with me? Have you lost your
mind?”
After Jackson finished speaking, he flung the staff over his shoulder and onto the ground.
Although he couldn’t defeat Cecilia and the bodyguard, he could deal with the staff.
The staff hit his back hard on the ground and nearly lost his breath.
Despite the pain, he clung to Jackson’s leg and yelled, “Someone!”

After Jackson kicked him away, the bodyguard rushed over. “Mr. Yancey, don’t force us to do it.”
Looking at the two burly bodyguards in front of him, Jackson clenched his fists but didn’t dare to
confront them.
With thepetition scheduled for tomorrow, he couldn’t afford to get injured. So, he turned and
walked away.
When he arrived at the gate, he saw Matthias walking over with a middle-aged woman.
The woman was the best racing coach in the country, Patricia Ford./
Jackson had aspired to be her disciple before, but he exhausted all’avable avenues and never even
had the chance to meet her.
Seeing Patricia, he immediately stepped forward and greeted respectfully, “Ms. Ford.”
He also took the chance to introduce himself to her. “I’m Jackson, the best racer in the country.”
It was not a boast. He was truly being recognized as number one in the motor racing industry.
Patricia nced at Jackson and passed by him without even responding.
Before entering Cecilia’s garage, she said, “After tomorrow, you will not be the best.”
Patricia’s words were like a loud p in Jackson’s face.
He immediately retorted, “Ms. Ford, I’ll let you know that you are wrong!”
“Okay, I’ll wait and see.”
Patricia said it calmly and went into the garage.
Jackson’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pan. He clenched his teeth and said in his heart,
“Cecilia, just wait and see! I will

never let you win!”
After that, he pushed away the onlookers out of spite and strode away,
Matthias stopped him before he could go far.
“Mr. Yancey, you beat the staff for no reason. You need to pay for thepensation before leaving.”
Jackson was annoyed and didn’t want to stay any longer. He asked angrily, “How much do I need to
pay?”
“20,000 dors.”
“20,000 dors? This is daylight robbery!”
The amount was nothing for Jackson. It was not even enough for him to buy a bottle of wine.
However, he was not a fool who would give money obediently to someone who ckmailed him.
In contrast to Jackson’s anger, Matthias looked extremely calm. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to
pay for the
Jackson seemed to find it rather amusing. “Who is he? How can he even begin topare himself to
me?”
“If he’s nothing to you, what about me?”
As soon as Matthias finished his words, he threw Jackson over the shoulder.
But he didn’t let Jackson fall to the ground. Instead, he stopped one second before Jackson touched
the ground.
“Mr. Yancey, you can choose whether to fall or pay for thepensation.”
The reason he thrived in both the legal and illegal realms was his strong sense of protection for his
associates. Hence, everyone was willing to work for him.
Jackson was so terrified that he broke out in a heavy sweat, and

his face went pale.
He squeezed out a few words from his teeth. “I will pay!”
Matthias helped him up. “It’d be nice if you agreed to it earlier.”
He soon received Jackson’s transfer and then transferred the money to the staff who had been hurt.
“Mr. Yancey, I wish you a victory tomorrow.”
Matthias’ words might have sounded pleasant, but to Jackson, they carried a hint of irony.
Jackson snorted and stormed off the racing track without continuing his training.
Matthias nced at the people around the parking area and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go.”
His words held the authority of royal decrees on the racing track, prompting people to disperse
immediately.
Nheless, the chatter and gossip were bing more prevalent.
“Mr. Quinn didn’t even bother to save Mr. Yancey’s reputation. Maybe he believes that Mr. Yancey is
bound to lose to Cecilia?”
“Even Ms. Ford thinks Cecilia is going to win, and Mr. Yancey is sure to lose.”
“Mr. Yancey imed to be the number one in the motor racing industry. I’ll wait for his crushing defeat
tomorrow.”
“Actually, it’s not necessarily true. Cecilia hasn’t touched car racing in four years, so her driving skills
must have gotten rusty.”
“Do you have any experience with car racing betting? Who’s your pick?”
The discussion gradually faded until it became entirely inaudible.
Matthias sent a message to the staff. He typed: [If you want to

make a fortune, just ce your bet on Cecilia.]
After that, he found a quiet ce and called Christopher.
“Jackson was highly agitated today. He might resort to injuring Cecilia to secure the championship. You
need to watch out for your wife, whom you haven’tpletely won over.”
Christopher sat at his desk and looked at theputer screen without blinking.
“I will watch out for my wife. You don’t have to be worried.”
“Christopher, are you actually jealous of me? Have youpletely thrown yourself into Cecilia’s arms?”
“You’re full of c*ap!”
Then Christopher hung up the phone and sent a message to
Cecilia.
It read: [Beware of Jackson. I’ll pick you upter on the racing track after I finish my work.]
When Cecilia received the message, she was in the process of recing two worn-out parts on the
racing car, and her phone. was set aside.
The screen lit up. Patricia looked at it and saw the message. Patricia knew something about the rumor
between Christopher and Cecilia.
However, she didn’t take it seriously. She always thought that it was a groundless rumor made up by
the media.
She didn’t expect it to be true.
She smiled at Cecilia who was busy. “Ceci, I’m d you made. friends. You even have a friend of the
opposite S**.”
Cecilia was cold and self-defensive, so she didn’t get close to
anyone.
It could also be said that she refused to get close to anyone. It took Patricia three years to get familiar
with Cecilia.

“Christopher is a little good at handling Ceci, Patricia thought.
Cecilia took off her gloves, picked up her phone to unlock it, and read the message.
After reading it, she replied, [No need. I have something to do today. Please don’te over.]
As soon as Cecilia finished typing, Patricia took away her phone and deleted the message. Then she
sent: [All right.]
Cecilia frowned and looked at Patricia, “Ms. Ford, what are you doing?”
“I’m very busy. I have to go to thepetition venueter. You don’t need to apany me.”

She gently patted Cecilia on the shoulder. “Ceci, you’ve undergone a significant transformation. I’m
truly delighted for you. Whoever is willing to protect you deserves your utmost appreciation. I wish for
your continued improvement.”
Then she left.
Cecilia gazed at the phone screen for a moment before returning her attention to the task of recing
the parts.
After everything was settled, she drove the car to the track for a test drive.
The public track was bustling with numerous cars. Somepetitors were engaged in practice
sessions, while car enthusiasts were enjoying their own rides and leisurely drives.
The moment she made her appearance, she drew the attention. of everyone present.
Many individuals halted their own cars, eager to witness. Racing Master in action.
Cecilia was not influenced by the outside world and drove fast on the track.
Unexpectedly, a car not far ahead abruptly swerved onto the road, blocking her path.
