Motorcycle Race


    "Lowell Ruiz!" Tracy fixed her gaze on the man speaking, her anger evident as she clenched her teeth. "You have no right to tell me to cancel my wedding!"


    Lowell responded with a sneer, "Your opinion doesn''t matter in this. I will only ept Shaun marrying my sister."


    "You have no authority to dictate our lives, Tracy shot back, visibly furious.


    With a sly grin, Lowell proposed, "I''ll offer you a chance. If you can outpace me in a motorcycle race, I won''t disrupt your wedding. And I''ll hand over fifty thousand dors in cash at your ceremony tomorrow as your wedding gift.


    "Don''t test my limits!" Tracy cautioned him sharply.w


    "I''m merely stating the facts. Everyone is aware that Shaun was coerced into this engagement with you. Do you genuinely believe you deserve him?" Lowell taunted, his tone dripping with sarcasm, causing Tracy both sadness and anger.


    She secretly acknowledged the harsh truth in Lowell''s words. The engagement had indeed been forced on Shaun, and her own doubts about their marriage made her fearful of interference. Lowell, a key figure from the Ruiz family-one of Liverton''s top three influential families-held significant sway. Known for his short temper, he was not someone people typically challenged. Yet, despite his typical arrogance, he was surprisingly deferential towards his older sister. "ept my challenge, dare you? Or do you n to tell Shaun that I picked on you? Remember, your parents are in my hands! If you involve Shaun, !''ll ensure you find their bodies in the sea, Lowell threatened, confident that Tracy would not defy him.


    Tracy felt a wave of anxiety. Her parents hade to Liverton for her wedding and had gone to an


    ind earlier today.


    Unknown to her, the ind was under the control of the Ruiz family. Lowell had used this to his advantage, cing her parents under house arrest and coercing Tracy into attending this gathering. He even forced her into this absurdpetition!


    Tracy wanted to dismiss Lowell''s threats, but she couldn''t risk her parents'' safety. "This is an unreasonable demand," she said, her voice filled with displeasure as she red at him.


    In Liverton, everyone knew that Lowell was a skilled motorcycle racer who consistently won. Tracy, on the other hand, had no experience with motorcycle racing. It was clear he was using this challenge to prevent her marriage to Shaun.


    "So, you''re too scared? You don''t want this opportunity?" Lowell taunted.


    His malevolence was palpable. Just as Tracy was overwhelmed with worry, Elyse grasped the situation and stepped forward. Looking at him with scorn, she offered, "May I race in her stead?" Lowell sized up Elyse, skeptically assessing her slender frame. "You think you canpete with me on a motorcycle?" he sneered. "Just don''t cry when you lose. I won''t have any sympathy for you."


    Elyse replied coolly, "I''m puzzled. They''re about to be married, yet here you are, the brother of the third party, so desperate to stop the < wedding. Why not speak to Shaun directly instead of threatening my best friend?"Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    She paused, then added pointedly, "Your sister can''t be much of a person, can she?"

    "How dare you insult my sister!" Lowell''s fury was palpable, his eyes nearly bulging with


    rage.


    "You''ve already insulted my best friend enough," Elyse shot back. "If you lose, you owe Tracy six times the cash gift tomorrow. That''s three hundred thousand dors, not a penny less!" Lowell agreed instantly, confident in his victory.


    Without a motorcycle of her own and unwilling to use Lowell''s, Elyse found herself needing to purchase one for the race.


    As they headed to buy a motorcycle, Jayden remarked with a cold tone, "I didn''t know you could ride."


    Elyse, head bowed, breathed shallowly, while Tracy awkwardly interjected, "Elyse was quite the rebel back in the day. She used to race in undergroundpetitions for money. She''s not only skilled but also very professional."


    Jayden scoffed, hisughter tinged with irritation. "! hadn''t evenmented yet, and you''re already singing her praises. Do you realize how dangerous it is to race against Lowell Ruiz?" Shivering, Elyse responded, "I had no choice. His taunts made me so angry, I had to ept his challenge for Tracy."


    "So you''re expecting me to apany you to buy a decent motorcycle < so that you can race that conceited boy?" Jayden''s tone carried a mix of anger and disdain for the Ruiz family. "You shouldn''t go."


    Elyse shook her head resolutely. "No, I have to. I''ve made a promise!"

    someone look after Tracy and keep the Ruiz family from causing trouble."


    Elyse gave him a look of such sorrow that he found himself at a loss. Eventually, he couldn''t withstand her silent plea and conceded, "Alright, you can go to the race, but please, safety first even if you lose. Trust me, I won''t let him disrupt the wedding, okay?"


    Relieved and happy, Elyse nodded energetically. "I know, honey. You''re the best!" Overjoyed, she threw herself into his arms. He looked a bit helpless but clearly enjoyed her affection.


    Tracy watched them, feeling a twinge of happiness for them but also envy. She had never shared such a natural connection with Shaun.


    At the motorcycle shop, the shopkeeper informed them that the model Elyse chose was either not for sale or out of stock.


    Elyse furrowed her brows in confusion, "What''s the issue? I have the money right here. Doesn''t that settle it?"


    Jayden exined, "It''s not surprising. Lowell is well-known in these circles. If he''s warned them, of course, they won''t sell to you."


    Upon hearing this, Elyse fixed her gaze on the shopkeeper, who quickly averted his eyes, clearly feeling guilty.


    Tracy bit her lip, remorse evident in her expression. "I''m sorry. It''s all my fault," she apologized don''t understand why being with Shaun has to be soplicated."
