When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 240

Four headlights at the entrance to the racetrack flicked on like a demon’s eyes in the night, illuminating the entire racetrack in a wretched white color.

Chris, who had been watching the battle nervously, couldn’t help turning his head to look in the direction of the blinding white lights.

Two figures emerged from the lights.

They strode over in a vertical line. One was in white while the other was in black.

The white figure looked elegant with its clothes rolled up.

The black one, on the other hand, was a handsome and solemn man who didn’t have one hair that was out of place.

“Leo? Toby?” Chris hurriedly called out and went over the moment he recognized them.

“What brings the two of you here?”

Walking in front, Leo had a blank expression on his serious face. He didn’t respond to Chris’ words as his dark gaze swept over the racetrack.

“You wanted to race, no? Why aren’t you on the racing track?” Toby’s gentle eyes were a stark contrast to Leo’s.

There was a small smile on his graceful face.

Chris grabbed a handful of hair and lamented, “I did for one round! But I lost…”

“Oh? Someone actually beat the Chris Alston! Which amazing person was it?” Toby asked out of curiosity.

He apparently didn’t know who Chris was here for tonight.

The more questions he asked, the more embarrassed Chris felt. Chris’ head was hanging low when he muttered, “Who else? Of course, it’s A-Amelie. Ashton came up with the stupid idea to cover our right eye. I lost by three seconds.”

Even the three seconds were what Amelie spared him.

Chris was overwhelmed by shame the more he thought about it.

He initially thought that Toby would tease him for it. To his surprise, Toby’s face suddenly fell. “What did you say?”

As soon as he said that, Toby grabbed Chris by the collar and yanked hard.

Confused, Chris peered at Toby dazedly. “W-What’s the matter, Toby?” he choked out. The face in front of him was thunderous.

With his mouth pressed in a thin line, Toby looked as if he wanted to gobble someone up.

Chris had never seen Toby acting so menacingly before.

Toby only managed to stop himself from throwing a punch at Chris’ face by pursing his lips and calming down.

“Damn it!” He shoved Chris away.

To begin with, Amelie had lost her vision in her left eye. Covering up her right one would render her completely blind.

This was a race with a blind person!

“Where is she?” he growled.

Chris was still bewildered when he robotically pointed at the racetracks upon hearing Toby’s question.

He looked in the direction he was pointing at as well before he suddenly cursed, “F*cking hell!”

Because of the headlights, the whole racetrack was lit up.

It was only when the lights came on that Chris saw a row of standing wood pilings not far from Amelie.

In other words, she would crash into it no matter how she drove! She would undoubtedly end up dead if she drove at a speed of 600 miles per hour and crashed into the pilings.

Who would do something so evil?! Chris started to dash in Amelie’s direction, but someone was faster than him.

He only felt a strong gust of wind from both sides before he saw two figures, one black and the other white, rush out. They’re like arrows! No, they’re faster than arrows. They’re like rockets! Both of them…

Chris was stupefied.

However, he soon noticed that they wouldn’t be able to save Amelie no matter how fast they were.

It would take less than a second to cover that 50 meters…

In short, Amelie was doomed.

Even Elyse, who was hiding in the audience section, smiled triumphantly.

Not even the best racer in the world could avoid crashing into the pilings 50 meters away at this speed!

Amelie will finally be gone for good! Elyse inwardly cheered. Haha! My plan worked! I’m a genius!

She had a glint in her eyes as she was already imagining how she wanted to celebrate her victory.

Then, she closed her eyes to enjoy the explosion of the fatal car crash.

Swoosh!

Two seconds had passed after that and yet, she didn’t hear the impact she was expecting. Instead, all she heard was the sound of something shooting through the air.

It was like a flying saucer.

Elyse couldn’t help but open her eyes, only for the fire in her pupils to be covered by a flash of red.
