Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 462

NO1 was always a mystery. Whenever they showed up on the track, they were covered head to toe in racing gear, helmet never coming off, never saying a word to the press. The organizers kept everything under wraps, and the rumors only grew. Some people swore NO1 was a guy, while others were convinced NO1 was a woman.

But truthfully, nobody cared. Fans just loved NO1, the world’s top racer.

Lucinda rolled her eyes, thinking the people behind her were out of their minds. Seriously, what was the big deal? It was just a race car driver.

Suddenly, Kylie nudged Cameron and whispered, “Look, doesn’t NO1 kind of look like Lydia? I mean, the way they move, their vibe… it’s so familiar.”

Their seats had a perfect view, and right then, Lydia and the team were standing close by. When Lydia stepped out of the car and waved to the crowd, Kylie’s heart skipped a beat. She couldn’t shake the feeling.

Cameron leaned forward, squinting at the track. “You know, you might be right. Now that you mention it, there’s something about them. Honey, do you think… could NO1 actually be Lydia?”

Kylie nodded, almost excited. Lydia had already surprised them so many times. She was talented and always kept a low profile. If anyone could pull off being NO1 in secret, it was her. Plus, Jack had once mentioned how insanely fast Lydia drove when he picked her up from Lakeview Town.

“I really think it’s possible,” Kylie said.

Lucinda, who’d been listening, stared at her parents like they’d completely lost it. “Dad, Mom, I get that you think Lydia’s great, but come on. There’s no way she’s NO1.”

In her head, racing was a guy thing. Weren’t all of Chris' teammates men? She couldn’t believe everyone was starting to treat Lydia like she was some superhero. It was ridiculous.

Connor just shook his head at Lucinda, thinking she was honestly the most clueless person he’d ever met. She always just assumed that if she couldn’t do something, no one else could either.

“But I’m serious, that silhouette really does look like Lydia,” Kylie insisted.

So, after going over their options, the Country D Team Country Decided they’d have to target Chris, Weston, and Arden instead.

One of the drivers groaned, “What’s even the point with those two around?”

“Yeah, and we can’t even go after Chris properly!”

NO1 and Jay had completely crushed their confidence.

Rory’s eyes narrowed. “Accidents happen in racing all the time. If they can’t handle it, that’s on them.”

If they couldn’t take the glory for themselves, they’d make damn sure Chris and his Team didn’t get it either.
