Chapter 248
Sitting in the passenger seat in Trevon's car, Selina noticed the GTR next to them. 'Isn't that the sports car Lloyd uses for racing?' she wondered.
Trevon said coldly, "What a small world. We run into annoying guys even here."
Selina put her hands on the back of her head and uttered lazily, "Let's ignore them, darling. Concentrate on driving. If we pay attention to these people, they will be more arrogant and cause trouble for us." At this time, Frederick rolled down the car window. "Trevon, Selina, I know you are in there. Selina, have you been brainwashed and deceived by Trevon? Is that why you hate the Harvey family so much? You've got to wake up! We are your family, and we are doing it for your own good!"
"Frederick!" Although Lloyd thought that there could be such a possibility, he was not sure since it was just speculation. He didn't expect Frederick to blurt it out at this time, but he thought it might not be a bad idea because it could help them test that possibility.
Selina felt so disgusted that she nearly vomited when she heard Frederick's words. She said to Trevon, "Darling, how can there be such foolish people in this world? I'm impressed!" She thought, "To hell with being my family and doing it for my own good! I lived in a living hell when I was with the Harvey family and was manipulated and framed. How could Frederick say such words brazenly?'
Trevon rolled down the car window and glared at Frederick coldly. At this moment, Frederick was once again intimidated by Trevon's look even though he had been mentally prepared for it. He could not help but feel a little scared. However, he did not want to admit defeat, so he forced himself to stare at Trevon and did not back down.
Trevon said contemptuously, "Where did you get the nerve to make a fuss in front of me? Even if Quinton comes to me himself, I will not take him seriously."
Frederick bit his lip. "How dare you! You can say anything about me, but how can you badmouth my father? Selina! I know you are in there. How can you just sit by when Trevon is mocking Dad?"
"Please, you psycho family. Can you disappear completely and leave me alone? We are strangers now. Don't act so intimate. It's disgusting." Selina rolled her eyes.
Frederick said, "Selina..."
Lloyd persuaded, "That's enough, Frederick. Even if what you said is true, Selina has been brainwashed by Trevon. According to my current understanding of her, she really doesn't care about the Harvey family at all, including Dad and Mom. Stop it! Not only will you waste your breath, but you'll also make yourself angry!"
Under Lloyd's persuasion, Frederick finally gave up. He closed the window and punched the door. "Damn Trevon! He must have brainwashed Selina! Even if Selina wants to cut ties with the Harvey family, she can't be so heartless to us."
Lloyd said, "I don't know whether Trevon brainwashed Selina or if Selina meant what she said, but Frederick, you successfully brainwashed me and made me angry at Trevon."
Frederick was slightly stunned. "Lloyd, what... do you mean?"
At this time, the traffic light turned green. Both cars started to move forward. Lloyd sped up suddenly and overtook Trevon's Maybach. He rolled down the window and stretched out his middle finger. It was obviously a provocation. He could no longer participate in car racing after he lost to Selina, but it did not mean that he could not challenge someone else on the road.
'Trevon, I lost to Selina, but I don't believe I will lose to you! As a top racer, it's enough for me to have only one unforgettable failure. It will never happen again!' he thought.
"Is he challenging you, darling?" Selina had never realized that Lloyd was so shameless before. She was speechless that Lloyd had the nerve to challenge Trevon in front of her after she had defeated Lloyd and forced him to quit the racing industry.
"He lost to you but not me. It seems that he is still very confident in his strength. The defeat last time didn't completely wake him up." Trevon smirked coldly and continued, "Honey, sit tight. I will accept the challenge of this arrogant guy."
Selina responded, "You will accept his challenge, darling? Well, I'd like to see how good your racing skills are. I have never seen you race before." "My skills are not as good as yours as Flying Shadow, the international racing champion, but it's more than enough to defeat this loser." Trevon slammed on the gas pedal and turned the steering wheel. He sped forward and drove side by side with Lloyd.
"Humph, you have quite a temper. I'll take it as you've accepted my challenge!" Lloyd tightened his grip on the steering wheel and picked up speed, trying to overtake Trevon. 'I can't lose. Not this time. I lost to Selina, but I can't lose to Trevon. No way! I have to win this match! he thought. Two cars roared on and raced against each other. Fortunately, it was late. There were few vehicles on the road and plenty of space. When they got onto the wide highway without a speed limit, Lloyd and Trevon raced to their hearts content.
Lloyd, be careful. Such a speed made Frederick's face pale. This was not a professional racing track, and it would be fatal if anything happened.

Lloyd assured him, "Frederick, trust me! Even though I lost to Selina and stopped racing, it was once my glory! I will handle it well!"
"Okay, Lloyd, I believe you. You must defeat Trevon and let Selina know that this liar is not that great. The legendary Trevon is not invincible!" In order to wake Selina up and get back at Trevon, Frederick took the risk.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
The race between the Maybach and the GTR was close. Overall, the GTR had the upper hand. After all, it was a professional racing car, so its horsepower was much stronger than that of the Maybach. Morcover, as the world champion twice in a row, Lloyd was skillful, even though he was not as good as Selina.
Selina noticed Trevon's plan and smiled, leisurely waiting for Trevon's victory. Trevon could tell the negative effect of the speeding of Lloyd's GTR.
Just as the GTR was about to overtake the Maybach at the corner, Lloyd, who thought he was going to win, suddenly sensed that something was wrong because the speedometer on the dashboard had become strange. He wondered, 'Could it be... His face suddenly fell as he thought of a certain possibility.
Glancing at Frederick beside him, he struggled and hesitated. Finally, he let go of the gas pedal and slowed down. In the blink of an eye, Trevon's Maybach caught up and overtook his GTR.
"What's going on? Lloyd, why did you suddenly slow down? You were about to win!" Frederick was confused. He did not understand why Lloyd did this.
"Damn it... I was tricked! I left my GTR in the garage and did not send it for maintenance. Trevon deliberately manipulated the speed so that my car overheated! If I continue to speed up like this, I'm afraid the car will be destroyed, and we will both be killed!" Lloyd exclaimed.
The GTR, a professional racing car, was sensitive to performance tuning. Lloyd had just returned to Sokovis and had not sent the GTR to a professional garage for performance tuning.
Moreover, he had quit the racing industry. It was pointless to make professional tuning. Racing was at most a hobby to him now. Unexpectedly, Trevon grasped this flaw. Lloyd's GTR was not only disadvantageous when turning around corners, but its current mode was also unsuitable for a seesaw competition with the Maybach. It could easily lead to the breakdown of the engine.
If Lloyd was alone, he could act recklessly, take a gamble, and fight with Trevon to the end. But Frederick was by his side, and he couldn't risk Frederick's life.
