If only Scarlet had acted sooner, Hathaway thought to herself

But then again, maybe it wouldn’t have changed anything

“Jessica, your engagement is what matters most right now. In half a month, you’ll be engaged to Jeremiah. What if you ge hurt out there?” her mother said.

Her father set down his financial newspaper. “You’re a young lady about to get engaged and join the Blackwood family Always out there racing, getting yourself hurt? What will people think?

“How will that reflect on both families? Why don’t you drop out of this race?”

“Hathaway’s already signed up. I’m not letting her beat me,” Jessica said.

“Maybe she’s trying to sabotage your engagement, Melanie said cautiously. “If you get hurt on the track, the engagement might be off. Why take that chance?”

Elizabeth chimed in, “Once you’re engaged and married into the Blackwood family, everyone will envy you. Why cling to racing? It’s not worth the trouble.”

Jessica’s eyes sparkled. “But out on the track, that’s where I truly dazzle

“Go get yourself ready,” her mother said.

The dining table was bathed in warm, flickering light

For you.” Jeremiah said in his low voice, offering something in his palma.

Jessica smiled brightly, her eyes crinkling as she reached out to take it.

Her fingertips brushed the delicate chain, and when she caught sight of the trauslient pink crystal bracelet, she breathed

But then, her eyes stopped for a moment.

Jeremiah was always so meticulous and reserved. He remembered everything

Yesterday, she’d said she didn’t like pink, and now, the very next day, he was giving her a pink bracelet

He double-checked with her about it.

There was no way he didn’t hear her Clearly.

Jessica glanced up at Jeremiah.

He was still smiling, but there was something different in his eyes this time.
