"The speed... wow," someone murmured, leaving everyone else practically speechless.
In the last round, Flora had put on more of a spectacle, a real feast for the eyes. But this time, she ditched all the fancy tricks and went full throttle on speed alone. All the onlookers could do was watch as she became nothing more than a blur.
"Miss Flora is amazing!!!" The Reyes family’s team erupted into cheers and applause. Their eyes were practically shining with excitement! The earlier gloom had completely lifted. They’d won again, and thanks to Flora, it felt like a walk in the park.

Was this Gerald’s doing? Wasn’t one win enough—did she have to clinch the second too?
