Chapter 289 Standing Ground
couldn’t care less about winning or losing, but Isabella’s physical safety was paramount.
Damian’s stupid wager was worthless garbage compared to her well-being.
“Understood,”
Isabella replied with a calm smile.
Her victory was absolute, leaving no room for doubt.
“Done whispering in your huddle?”
Damian sneered with icy malice, “If you’re genuinely terrified, that’s fine too.
“Barking like dogs takes practice, and you military boys might get the hang of it after a few reps.
“Otherwise, you keep yelling about bootlickers without realizing you’re the real mutts!”
His eyes flashed with sinister ridicule.
His flunkies broke into a chorus of boisterous laughter.
Landon lounged on a paddock couch, stabbing a dessert fork into a pastry with a lazy smirk, “Right? Try getting down on all fours for once, Noah-you might actually enjoy the view from the dirt!”
He roared with obnoxious laughter.
Isabella looked toward them with effortless composure, stating, “Of course we’re racing.
“However, isn’t your proposed wager ridiculously one-sided?”

Sneering with condescension, he barked, “Who the hell are you to negotiate terms with us?”

A sneer curled his lips, “Is she even in our league?”
“She’s out of your damn league!” Noah’s eyes burned with icy fury as he growled, “Cut the cheap provocations, Damian.
“Trying to smear Bella as a country girl? Why, is she not good enough to talk down to you?
“You’re the b*stard who challenged her to race in the first place!

“What, did your royal pedigree suddenly vanish?
That-tier of trash are you to look down on our people?!”
Glaring down at Damian’s faction with absolute authority, Noah declared, “Since you challenged her, her word represents every single one of us!
“Anyone got a problem with that?”
Turning to Declan and the crew behind him, he added, “If any of you disagree, speak up now and I’ll take full responsibility-I’ll shoulder the entire fallout alone!
“But if you stay quiet now and whine behind her back later, don’t blame me for cutting ties with you as brothers!”
pah made his loyalty crystal clear-he had Isabella’s back no matter what.
Declan and the boys objected, they could bow out without judgment, and he would still treat them as others.
After all, he had no intention of forcing anyone to put blind faith in Isabella.
But staying silent now only
