Harvey smiled. "Not only did you win, but you also did so gloriously. My friend instantly announced that he wanted to date you." A faint smugness appeared in Harvey's tone. "But you were fixated on me and turned him down right away."
"..." After a while, Vicky asked hesitantly, "Are you sure I could race?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
"It's not like you haven't lied to me before."
Harvey cleared his throat awkwardly and changed the subject. "Both you and Gloria were from a powerful family with great fame, so I thought that you'd be the stereotypical, elegant lady like Gloria. That's why I proposed for you to race my friend."
Driving and racing were two different things, and a girl with Vicky's background would often view car racing as a barbaric hobby. Gloria had once shown contempt for the sport when Harvey brought it up in the past.
"I didn't even know I could do that..." muttered Vicky.
"I was shocked as well and asked you about it. You said that you went through a rebellious stage and went into car racing for a time, but that was just for fun. Afterward..."
Vicky's interest was piqued when Harvey paused. "What happened afterward?"
He turned to look at her with a mysterious look in his eyes. "You said that you met someone who was a great driver, and he taught you a lot of things."
"... I don't remember."
"I think you loved that person."
Vicky froze. "What?"
