When I Was a Wallflower (Leo and Amelie) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71

*Julia is so fussy. She must be feeling guilty with all the big talk and fumbling around.” Tina put on her helmet swiftly as her face brightened up with confidence. “Don’t worry. We’ll surely win this round.”

“Don’t underestimate your opponents!” Elyse didn’t reply to her but reminded her.

This time, she wouldn’t give Amelie any chance to overtake her.

The corners of her lips curved lip ever so slightly in mockery.

From what she saw, she felt that everything Amelie did just now was to get Leo’s attention.

In the end, Amelie was still hung over him! Elyse would show her straight to the face that she would always be better!

Tina didn’t say anything else and nodded. The failure we experienced just now was embarrassing enough, so I would perform my best this round, she thought as she turned around to grab the machine used by co-drivers.

As she turned around, she just so happened to see Julia and Amelie who were standing opposite them as the machine in her hand fell onto the ground with a thud.

“Elyse! Elyse! Look!” She pulled on Elyse as she shouted.

Elyse looked in the direction of her gaze to see Julia holding up a blindfold to cover Amelie’s eyes

e they doing?” Tina was a pretty mature co-driver, but at the moment she looked like she had seen

Racing was a bet between life and death. Racers all wished to have a better vision of the road, but now that someone was blindfolding themselves. It was unheard of.

Disbelief rose in Elyse’s eyes as with everyone else.

However, the two people that were at the center of attention were indifferent as they continued to banter and laugh.

“We’re here for the match. Why did you have to taunt Leo?” Amelie asked as she tucked on the blindfold covering her eyes.

Julia humphed, “Nobody likes that b*stard and b*tch couple. He’s usually very busy. Now that we have the chance, I need to make it worthwhile!”

She wanted to seize every opportunity she could to make life tough for Leo.

Amelie shuddered. Whomever you cross, you must not cross Julia. She is too scary.

“Besides, we didn’t play any dirty tricks. It was merely a tactic to numb the enemies.”

Amelie couldn’t hold back a laugh at her words. “If that was a tactic to numb the enemies, then what is this now?” She pointed at the cloth on her face.

Julia snapped her fingers. “This shatters their pride. I’ll see if they still have the mood to race!”

In the end, Julia wanted to use these tactics of hers to torture Elyse.

Amelie knew what she meant.

it was a coincidence that the aperture for both of her eyes was different and that she was easily dazzled. So, it was better to blindfold herself anyways.

They had done the blindfold training many times. So, it wasn’t a big deal.

However, everyone else didn’t think so, especially Tina as she angrily punched the car. “What is the meaning. of this? Is she looking down at us?”

If Amelie raced while blindfolded, it was as if she was telling the world that even if she couldn’t see, Tina and Elyse still wouldn’t be able to beat them.

This wasn’t just merely looking down at them. It was a complete humiliation!

Elyse’s fingers dug into her palms as her legs which were positioned under the steering wheel stepped hard as if it was pushing a hole through the bottom of the car.

She should have been more ruthless back then and left Amelie to freeze to death in the snow. If Amelie was dead, Amelie wouldn’t be alive now to be a nuisance to her!

Trying hard to suppress her anger, Elyse took a few deep breaths before turning around to look at Tina. “They’re just playing mind tricks so that we’ll panic. Look at you. It’s working.”

Once Tina heard those words, she also took a deep breath and opened the dedicated navigation system to check the road conditions.

While they had calmed down and were in the zone, everyone else was still worked up and chatted non-stop.

“It’s so late at night. Does she have a death wish to race blindfolded?”

“It’s not worth it to put your life on the line just to be vindictive, right?”

After knowing the relationship between Amelie, Elyse, and Leo, everyone just thought that Amelie was going crazy trying to vent her anger.

“She must have had the skills if she dared to blindfold herself. She’s not stupid and she can drive well. Amelie knows what she’s doing.” Mr. Perez was already a die-hard fan as he stood on Amelie’s side.

“How should I put it? Isn’t Amelie being a bit too much? They are divorced. Marriage is a personal choice. Why not let go of him?”

“That’s right. Look at Elyse. She’s being so kind by giving in every time Amelie provokes her.”

Many people started to lean toward Elyse now.

Based on the current situation, it did seem like Amelie kept looking for trouble with Elyse.

“She had kept a low profile in the Alston Family for five years without any hiccups. There must be a reason for her to suddenly act up. We are outsiders. We shouldn’t be talking about their private life when we know nothing,” Chris steadily commented.

After that, he casually blew on the dust on his fingertips and jumped into the car.
