Chapter 70
Get Bom
Everyone greeted Dennis. Marie followed the crowd into the race track after meeting a few people politely.
Someone was setting up the race car when a few men shouted, “Are you done yet? When will the competition start?”
Andres sat on the sofa and said, “Mr. Whitney, do you want to join the game?”
Dennis shook his head. “No.”
Andres was a little disappointed and said, “Why are you here if you don’t want to play?”
Dennis glanced at him, “Didn’t you ask me to bring Marie here?”
Andres replied, “Marie, what about not betraying me?”
Marie smiled awkwardly. “I didn’t sell you out. He guessed it himself.”
Andres said, “Since you’re here, let’s drive one lap!”

Dennis turned his eyes to Marie. Marie nodded, “Join the game. Give me a show.”
Dennis got up and went to pick a race car. Marie sat aside and asked, “Where’s Darwin?”
Andres pointed to the black sports car in the field, replying, “Look at that car, he will race later.”
Marie nodded. A tall girl walked over and greeted with a smile, “Hello, my name is Nataly Carmen.”
Marie raised her head to see the girl with waist-length long hair, wearing a short haute couture and a pair of high heels. What a gentle woman!
She stood up and shook hands with her. “Good to see you. I’m Marie Spence.”
Andres introduced Nataly to Marie, “Marie, this is the eldest daughter of the Carmen family. She grew up with us.”
Marie nodded and greeted politely.
“I’ve never seen you before. Are you an outsider?” Nataly asked.
“I come from Las Vegas,” said Marie Spence.
“Dennis rarely takes a girl out for fun. How did you know each other?” Nataly asked.
-Marie frowned because she was not familiar with Nataly. There was no need to report this to her.
“You can ask Dennis,” said Marie.
“Dennis is busy with work. I don’t usually see him when I go to his house.” Nataly said with a smile.
Get Borut
Marie suddenly realized that this woman was here to compete with her.
Marie thought, Dennis? Why did you say you go to his house?
You can just tell me you like him.
With a smile, Marie replied, “You can ask him now. He’s over there.”
Marie pouted and turned her eyes to Dennis’direction.
“It’s okay. It’s not a big deal. In our circle, we all know about Dennis.” Nataly smiled gently.
Was Nataly telling Marie that she was not a member of their social circle?
Andres frowned and said, “Don’t listen to her nonsense, Marie. Nataly just talk nonsense.”
Nataly covered her mouth and said, “I’m sorry. It’s just that Dennis and Ms. Spence are so close, but
I haven’t heard him mention it to us.”
This woman’s words were so sardonic, making others uncomfortable. Nataly always declared that Dennis had an unusual relationship with her, which made Marie very unhappy.
“Yeah, I’ve never heard Dennis mention Ms. Carmen either.”
Nataly changed into another expression. Marie continued, “Last night, I asked Dennis to bring me to watch the race. He only said that Andres would be here with some people I didn’t know well.
However, he didn’t mention Ms. Carmen specifically.”
In other words, Dennis was not familiar with Nataly.
Nataly’s face look awkward, and Andres covered his face.
Andres thought, Why do you have to do this? You dare to push Marie, such a lioness’s button. See how she scratch you.
Seeing that the war was about to start, Andres pulled Nataly to sit down and said, “Nataly, you come out for fun today. Let’s watch the game.”
Nataly felt a little wronged and sat beside Andres, asking, “Andres, does Ms. Spence dislike me?”
Marie didn’t know what to say.
She thought, Yeah, I really don’t like you.
Andres Robert stroked Nataly’s head and comforted her, “No, she’s very nice but just not familiar with you.”
Only then did Nataly show a smile and watched the game obediently next to Andres. From time to time, she whispered a few words to him, which made him happy.
For a while, Marie was speechless. She thought, Did you like Dennis and make Andres be your backup?
Over there, Dennis had already started the car at the same time as several cars. Dennis chose a gray sports car which could be seen that it was in good performance. Soon, Dennis ranked first with his good skills, and only David’s black sports car was behind.
Andres said nervously, “If Darwin defeats Mr. Whitney, I will give him a new car!”
Nataly smiled and said, “Dennis must have won. He has always kept the record on this track.”
Andres turned his head to look at Nataly’s smile. His eyes darkened, but he didn’t say anything.
Marie said, “Darwin is going to lose.”
Andres asked, “Why are you so sure?”
Marie chuckled. “Do you want to bet?”
Andres’s interest was piqued. “What’s the bet?”
With a sly smile, Marie said, “Bet on the next advertisement of your company. I’ll get it if I win!”
Andres was helpless, “Okay! Isn’t it just an advertisement? If you lose, then that thing about the
movie is over.”
He didn’t want Darwin to get into trouble and be thrown into the Pacific Ocean by Dennis.
Marie nodded and replied, “He slipped a little out when he made the second turn just now. The tire on the left should be old, and the right one should be new. The balance of the car will not be as good
as Dennis’. That is why Darwin couldn’t keep up.”
As soon as Marie finished speaking, Dennis’sports car rushed past the finishing line. Darwin
followed closely behind and got out of the car to glare at Dennis and then shouted, “Mr. Whitney!
Can’t you just give me a chance?”
As they walked toward the others, Andres teased, “Mr. Whitney, you’ve made me lose an
advertisement to Marie.”
Dennis raised his eyebrows and looked at Marie. “Really? Are you sure I will win?”
Only then did Marie feel a little embarrassed and said, “Yeah, aren’t you good at everything?”
Dennis rubbed the hair on her forehead and asked, “Do I get any
rewards?”
After thinking for a while, Marie said, “I’ll treat you to grilled fish from Fairy Restaurant.”
Dennis nodded. Nataly watched their interaction with jealousy. She grew up with Dennis, but he had never smiled at her like that.
Get Boros
Nataly stepped forward and said, “Dennis, Ms. Spence knows racing very well. When Darwin turned the second corner, she knew he was going to lose.”
Just then, Darwin walked over and asked, “Who said I was going to lose the second turn?”
Marie frowned and thought, Nataly and the Spence sisters were the same. Wouldn’t it make her feel uncomfortable if she didn’t make trouble?
Andres was a little helpless and said, “It’s okay. We are not serious.”
Darwin was furious after losing the game and said, “Andres, who is talking nonsense and saying
that I will lose? I don’t believe it!”
Marie could only stand up and say, “I said it.”
Darwin looked at her disdainfully and replied, “You are just a little girl. Do you know what racing is? Why did you think I would lose?”
Marie smiled, “I knew the tire on the left side of your car was old, and the right one was newly
changed. You turned too fast.”
Andres covered his face and thought, Damn. Darwin, this grumpy boy, would explode if he is
scolded!
Sure enough, Darwin blushed angrily. “You’re just a little girl. What’s the big deal about talking words on a page? If you can compete with me, let’s see how you can brag!”
Dennis frowned. “Darwin, don’t go too far.”
Darwin shouted arrogantly, “I didn’t go too far. It’s just a race. Everyone will be safe in the track. I can’t defeat you, Mr. Whitney. Can’t I defeat a little girl?”
Nataly smiled and said, “That’s right, Dennis. It’s Ms. Spence’s first time here, and it’s okay to have fun. Darwin, please be nice to Ms. Spence.”
Darwin rolled his eyes at Nataly. “It’s none of your business.”
Marie chuckled. Darwin seemed to dislike Nataly very much.
Andres reprimanded, “Darwin, don’t talk to Nataly like that!”
..
Nataly tugged at Andres and said, “It’s okay. Darwin is still young.”
Darwin pursed his lips and asked, “Do you dare to compete with me?”
Marie replied, “Sure, what if you lose?”
Darwin laughed. “How could I lose? Stop daydreaming!”
The people around also laughed out. Darwin’s racing score were second only to Dennis’s. How could

he lose?
“Since there’s a bet, what’s the stake?” asked Marie.
Darwin said impatiently, “Okay. You can do anthing to me if I lose, okay? If you lose, you run
