Chapter 406 Built for Victory

This bet wasn’t just about winning Eustace’s money and car.

There were other people’s stakes in it too.

Simon didn’t hesitate. “I’ll lend you 20 million. When you win, just pay me back the money. Keep the rest.”

They were friends. He had no intention of taking advantage of her.

Scarlett said, “But I don’t have a car.”

Her old car, worth maybe a few tens of thousands, wasn’t even close to good enough. And upgrades would cost a lot too.

Simon smiled. “Use mine. Come by tomorrow and pick one.”

He had plenty of cars. Several were already modified for racing.

The others were surprised to see them settle it so quickly.

Wynne nudged Simon. “Elevan, you’re really letting Scarlett race Eustace? The stakes are huge this time. It’s just as tough as that Deadman Canyon run. I’ve got a bad feeling… like he’s planning something dirty.”

They all called Simon “Elevan” because it sounded like his name.

Scarlett smiled. “Don’t worry.”

She wasn’t going to let Eustace off easy.

Before she found proof that he had killed someone and forced his driver to take the blame, she planned to squeeze him hard first.

Once Scarlett made up her mind, she didn’t change it.

The others couldn’t persuade her anymore. Still, they planned to talk to Elevan tomorrow.

They all liked Scarlett. They didn’t want anything bad to happen to her.

The group sang until 1 a.m. before finally heading out.

For now, Scarlett was staying in the dorm arranged by Jyncrest University.

The next day, she told Lorentia that she would stay in Jyncrest City for a few more days. She said she had things to do and wouldn’t be hanging out with them.

She didn’t mention the race. She didn’t want to scare Lorentia.

After the call, Scarlett went to see Simon.

He handed her a card with 20 million on it. Then he took her to his garage.

This wasn’t an official international race. Everyone used their own modified cars. As long as you had a

Simon had several cars. Four of them were already modified.

Scarlett picked one worth around a million. She checked the previous upgrades.

She would still need to modify it further. There was a lot

But to Scarlett, the current setup wasn’t enough.

She planned to redo everything.

To join the race, you had to register first and sign a waiver. That way, no one could cause trouble if something went wrong.

After checking the car, Scarlett registered.

There was a special website. You just had to submit your name, ID, and proof of assets for the bet.

Scarlett uploaded her ID, her property documents, and proof of the 20 million in her account.

A few hours later, she was approved.

The race would be in five days.

The exact event details weren’t decided yet. Only the date was set.

Scarlett did the math. After the race, she could still make it back in time for the SAT.

Even though she had already guaranteed admission, her school and homeroom teacher knew she still planned to take the SAT.

Her teacher didn’t even know what she had been doing these past two months.

She had called Scarlett a couple of days ago.

Scarlett told her she would definitely be back before the test.

Once her registration was confirmed, Scarlett spent the next few days working on the car.

She didn’t have money on hand, so she borrowed the upgrade costs from Simon too.

Simon’s friends knew she had already signed up. There was no changing her mind.

Seeing how confident Simon was in her, they stopped trying to talk her out of it.
