Chapter 142: Chapter 142

Angus glared at Paige Sterling, "Paige, what are you doing here? You’re not here to race too, are you?"

Paige thought to herself, I just want to see how young people got themselves killed back in the day.

But she absolutely couldn’t say that out loud.

So she just stood there without a word, expressionless.

Angus squinted his eyes, "What? Paige, aren’t you really brave? Don’t you even dare to race?"

Paige crossed her arms, "Of the millions of roads, safety comes first. I suggest you don’t play either."

Angus perfectly illustrated what it means to continuously court death and enjoy it.

He sneered, saying, "So afraid of dying, what are you doing here?"

Miles Morgan immediately stepped up and said, "Angus, what are you trying to say? Don’t you look down on my sister Paige, do you? Today I’ll bring my sister Paige to play with you!"

Angus, "Who wants to play with you?"

He looked at Paige, "Paige, today I want to play with you. What now? You really don’t dare to play?"

Paige looked at Angus, puzzled, "Are you really not afraid of dying?"

Angus, "Street racing is both thrilling and exciting. If I could die in such an exhilarating atmosphere, I’d die with a smile." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

Angus affirmed, "Of course."

Paige nodded, "So that’s how it is. Then I’ll drive, and you sit, do you dare?"

Angus suddenly looked skeptical, "Do you even know how to drive?"

"Because I might not know how to drive, wouldn’t that make it even more thrilling and exciting? If you die in such a suspenseful atmosphere, you’d die smiling. I just want to see if you’d really be smiling when you die."

Angus’s expression froze, feeling like Paige was cursing him.

"Paige, are you serious?"

"Of course I’m serious, and besides, I can drive, what are you afraid of?"

Angus wasn’t sure if Paige could drive at all, because he hadn’t really seen her drive.

Besides, driving and racing are two different things.

But now Paige was looking at him so provocatively; if he didn’t go, wouldn’t it seem like he was scared of Paige?

"Fine, let’s do it, who’s afraid of whom?"

Saying that, Angus got into the car.

Miles thought for a moment and squeezed into the back seat, "Sister Paige, you better drive well; I’m putting my life in your hands."

Paige gave an OK sign, "Follow me, it’ll be as thrilling as you want, as exciting as you want."

Miles shivered, having a bad feeling.

Is it too late to regret getting out of the car?

At the signal, the other cars took off one after another, while Paige was last, driving leisurely.

Angus and Miles were initially on edge, but after a few minutes, Paige was still driving slowly, a speed they couldn’t handle.

Angus asked irritably, "Paige, do you even know how to drive?"

Paige responded nonchalantly, "This is my first time driving this type of car. I still need a bit to get used to it."

Angus pulled a face and leaned over to guide Paige.

"Drive faster; we’re racing, not taking a driving test. What’s the point of going so slowly?"

Paige glanced at Angus, "Then I’ll speed up, hold on tight."

Angus rolled his eyes, feeling utterly hopeless about Paige. He figured Paige was bound to crawl up the mountain at a snail’s pace and then crawl back down.

But just as he thought that, Paige suddenly floored the gas pedal and started to accelerate.

Angus and Miles weren’t prepared for it. If it weren’t for the seatbelts, they would’ve been thrown out of the car.

Moreover, Paige’s speed was indeed fast, so fast that Angus and Miles couldn’t even see what the scenery outside was. They just felt like they had overtaken several cars, all on curves, no less. Paige’s way of cutting in was so aggressive that she scared a few cars into stopping.

Angus clung to the handle as he watched Paige repeatedly drive towards the edge, seemingly about to throw them off a cliff. Angus nearly fainted, with his heart in his throat.

"Paige, what the heck are you doing? You’re accelerating on curves, are you trying to kill us?"

Paige raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t a curve the best place to accelerate during a race?"

But damn it, this isn’t a race circuit; it’s in the mountains. One mistake, and you’d be dead!

Miles looked terrified, "Sister Paige, please stop playing. Stop the car!"

Paige’s lips curled slightly, "Aren’t we here for the thrill of racing? What are you afraid of?"

With such little courage, how can you boast?

This isn’t Paige not knowing how to race?

This is a master, a daredevil of racing mastery willing to risk it all.

Angus was now terrified, afraid that one careless move might get him killed right here.

Paige noticed Angus’s legs shaking fiercely, and asked, "Why are your legs shaking? Not thrilling enough, not exciting enough?"

Angus, "...", Whose damn legs are shaking?

He tried hard to look calm, but the physiological reaction wasn’t lying. His leg just wouldn’t stop shaking.

Angus resignedly said, "Paige, you’re joking with my life here?!"

Paige chuckled, "You got in the car voluntarily, making it seem like I forced you."

In between talking, Paige had already stopped the car.

Angus and Miles practically flung open the car doors and rushed out to vomit as soon as the car stopped.

After today, they felt they’d probably never dare to race again in their lifetime.

This was about life and death, not passion and speed!

Paige watched their miserable figures, pulled the car door, "Alright, get back in."

Angus and Miles hugged each other for warmth, looking at Paige like she was some heinous demon.

"You want to go again? I’m telling you, I’d rather die than sit in your car again!"

Paige nodded, "Alright, you guys can walk down the mountain yourselves. I’ll head off first."

Walk down the mountain?

Wait, they’d driven all the way to the top. Walking down the mountain at night, wouldn’t that take all night?

Between sitting in Paige’s car again and walking all night, Miles and Angus thought and thought again, deciding not to get back in Paige’s car.

So Paige drove herself down the mountain.

Angus and Miles shivered miserably in the mountain breeze at the top, thinking that they’d never talk to Paige about excitement again.

Because they were no match for Paige.

Fortunately, a friend’s car was the last one, and it eventually took Miles and Angus down the mountain.

Perhaps they were still shaken by Paige’s daring; everyone drove down the mountain incredibly cautiously, with no trace of the thrill-seeking spirit that had them calling for excitement and adventure earlier.

Once everyone reached the foot of the mountain, they looked at Paige with awe.

Initially, they thought Paige was already amazing with her tech abilities, who knew she was also phenomenal at racing? Was she even human?

Anyway, they dared not challenge Paige again in the future.

Not only did Paige scare this group of people, but she also won quite a bit of money from this race, and she smiled a bit more because of it.

However, now seeing her smile made everyone feel even more eerily freaked out.

Because Paige said, "Let me know if you want to play again someday."

Everyone shook their heads in unison, "We won’t play again in the future!"

Paige, "You guys are no fun."

When Paige returned home, she found Julian Hawthorne was already back.

Paige walked over with a grin, saying, "I won money today."

Julian pulled her into his arms, "How much did you win?"
