Chapter 468 "No!"
Jean was annoyed by being questioned.
In the past, Ben would usually play along.
Why was he so aggressive today? And he was sure that she was hiding something.It unexpectedly made her think of that man.
"Then why did Ed..."
Jean's pupils trembled.
"What?"
The deeper meaning in Ben's brows was suppressed.He took a deep breath in.
"Let's go.We'll talk about it on the way.Deep in his heart, he was on Jean's side.There were numerous times when he had the impulse to tell her the whole story but stopped when it was on the tip of his tongue.He would hear what Edgar said.
"If you truly want what's best for her, you'll work with me.At least you know that I will never harm her."
Ben couldn't compare to him in that respect.
Compared to Ben, Edgar could even surrender his company readily.
Ben knew that he was inferior to Edgar on that alone.
"Ben, you have something you're hiding from me, don't you?"
Jean bought a snack and held it in her hands.
"No"
This time, Ben answered quickly.He quickened his footsteps and walked ahead after that.
With such an accident on the practice racecourse, it attracted much media attention.
At the same time, an unexpected guest was sitting in the organizing manager's office.
"I must see Dark Horse on the racecourse.I don't care how much money I have to invest."
There was a black veil on Sherry's head.Her beautiful eyes were hidden.
Otherwise, the shining animosity in her eyes could be seen clearly.
"About this..."
The manager was in a difficult position.
Because he had received news today that Dark Horse had great capital power behind them.
A few company bosses had spoken to him.
"I'm sorry, Ms.Summer.Although we're organizing this competition, the specific rules are in the hands of the local associations.According to the rules, Dark Horse's racers can't join the competition"
The manager was sweating slightly from embarrassment.
The racing team had been the ones to come up with such a request.
It so happened to fit in with the rules, which was a favor done at little cost.
Sherry couldn't accept such an excuse from him.
"You may reject me, of course, but no one can stop Pinnacle Group from doing anything.You better think about the consequences."
When she said that, the manager wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Ms.Summer, please stop making things difficult for me.International racing competitions like these have rules’ "Alright.Forget I was here today."
"Thank you for understanding, Ms.Summer!"
The manager got up and bowed at once, wanting to send her off.He didn't expect Sherry to smile coldly.
"There's no need to see me off"
Before the manager could come to his senses, an investor was already calling him.
Sherry wore her shades and strutted out.She saw Jean and Ben's pictures on a display board through the glass.
"You like to race?"
The smile on her face became more sinister, and she quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Jean sat by a bridge and sneezed two times in a row.She sighed in exasperation.
"What bad luck.Do I have to come to terms with reality and go home like this?"
She turned her head and looked at Ben.
"You feel reluctant too, don't you?"
There was still a light in Ben's eyes when he talked about racing.
It was by chance that he had abandoned this industry at first.
Jean believed that deep in his heart, he still wanted to compete as a racer again.
At that moment, rays from the sunset shrouded him.
From Jean's perspective, his expression was hard to read.
"Jeannie, are you..."
