The performance of race cars was what mattered, not their appearance.
“Wow, Bert! This is awesome.” Ysabelle was excited when she saw the race car because it looked extremely cool.
Her eyes sparkled with admiration as she said, “It must be really cool to drive this car. Can I try?”
Hearing that, Felix pulled her back to his side.
“This car looks good on the outside, but it’s not something you can drive,” he pointed out. It was not an ordinary race car; one careless mistake could cause a terrible accident.
A sense of letdown settled upon Ysabelle.
“Why is it that Sophie can do anything but I can’t?” she groaned.
“Who says you can’t? You can. You sing very well!” Felix affirmed. She’s already one of the most popular female singers. Isn’t that enough? Every person has their own strengths; we just have to do what we’re good at.
“Really? Am I that impressive to you?” Ysabelle asked hesitantly, unconvinced by his words.
“Yes. To me, you’re the most dazzling person in the world. I’m telling you the truth; the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,” Felix continued with his flattery. He was even willing to call her an angel as long as she did not do those dangerous things.
“All right!”
Since Felix had already put it that way, it was only right for Ysabelle to believe him. Besides, there was nothing she could do about it if he were lying.
Ysabelle knew very well that she was not as capable as Sophie.
Meanwhile, Sophie opened the race car door and climbed in to experience what it felt like inside. The race car was incredible-appearance and performance-wise.
Moreover, it was coated in the glamorous red color she liked. She was sure it would feel great to drive a car like that.
“What do you think? Do you like it?” asked Tristan. He had never used the car ever since he bought it.
Sophie bobbed her head in response.
“I like it. Looks like you’ve always had a great sense of taste.” She truly liked the car.
“If you like it, you can have it.”
The offer rendered Sophic speechless.
It sounded surreal that Tristan was giving her the car. However, she soon nodded because she really liked the vehicle.
Just then, Lily walked over, only to develop jealousy for Sophie when she caught sight of the race car. The way Tristan treated Sophie drew envy from others.
The look on Lily’s face gave Ysabelle the urge to provoke the former. “Ms. Sanders, why are you here? The event’s not starting until an hour later. What do you think about this race car? I wonder if it’s suitable for this track.”
The smile on Lily’s lips stiffened. Ysabelle’s doing this on purpose, isn’t she?
“Isn’t it obvious? Mr. Tristan’s things are always the best,” she said. Surely there’s no need to make it so clear?
“True. My uncle’s things are always the best, but he still cherishes Sophie the most.”
Lily was left baffled.
Ugh. I shouldn’t have come here before the competition starts. I’m only asking for trouble.
“Mr. Tristan, I’ve asked someone to prepare some food. You should have some.” Lily actually personally delivered the food just to have a glimpse of Tristan.
“Leave it there. I’m not free to eat now,” Tristan uttered indifferently without even looking at what she had prepared.
“Oh, okay.”
Lily dared not pester him in front of so many people. Thus, she placed the food down and left.
Intrigued, Sophie peered at the food Lily had prepared. They were all food that Tristan liked; it seemed like Lily was serious about him.
