Chapter 331
Xavier and Caleb took their seats in the stands right as the practice game began.
They weren’t familiar with racing, and they didn’t know who to support.
But after listening to the commentary, they found out that Racer 38, CC, and two others were favorites to win.
The kicker? CC was the only woman in the race. So naturally, she drew a lot of attention.
Besides, she pulled off two stumming overtakes on the curves that had the crowd roaring.
Xavier couldn’t hold back. “Holy crap, she’s got serious guts. That was so cool!”
Jorge, knowing Xavier didn’t realize CC was actually Wynn, just gave a faint knowing smile upon hearing that. CC came in first in both rounds.
Xavier blurted out, “Who even is this CC? I want to meet her!”
Right then, the camera cut to CC stepping out of the car and removing her helmet–when he saw it was Wynn, Xavier’s jaw nearly hit the floor.
“She’s CC? No way!”
The shock was quickly replaced by despair. “I was literally going to ask her out. And now you’re telling me she’s actually Trevor’s girlfriend?”
Well, that was a game over for Xavier.
The realization hit him hard, and he slumped. Still, he muttered enviously, “So, this is the kind of life Trevor’s enjoying, huh?”
At that moment, Wynn spotted them.
She was slightly surprised to see Caleb there too.
Walking over, she said with a smile, “Mr. Robinson, Mr. Jennings, Mr. York–I didn’t know you guys were into racing.”
Jorge responded first. “We weren’t, really. You mentioned before, and since we happened to be free, we figured we’d come to see what it was all about.”
Then, he added, “You were incredible out there. First place in both rounds, eh? Congrats.”
Smiling. Wynn thanked him.
Caleb chimed in, “Congrats.”
“Thanks,” she replied, turning to Caleb. “It’s been a while, hasn’t it? When I saw you from afar earlier, I thought I was seeing things.”
“Work’s been hectic; I don’t have much time to rest,” said Caleb.
Hearing that, Wynn asked, “I heard you’re a pilot, Mr. Jennings. Compared to flying jets, doesn’t racing seem kind of tame?”
“Racing has its own kind of thrill. There’s no need to compare, and you were really impressive out there, Ms. Locket.”

Wynn smiled at Caleb’s compliment.
Jorge then spoke up. “By the way, where’s Mr. Fleming? Didn’t he come to watch you race?”
“He had something to take care of, so he couldn’t make it today. But he’ll definitely be there for the real thing.”
Wynn added, “If you guys are free, then, I’d love to see you there.”
Jorge nodded. “I’ll definitely come if I’m free.!

And he meant it he wanted to watch her race for real. However, with Trevor also showing up…
That did complicate things for him.
It was Saturday morning, and Celeste woke up early.
She powered on her laptop to check some model data and had barely started when her phone lit up.
It was Kieran.
