Chapter 33: Don’t Go Running Around During This Time
Almost simultaneously, the red sports car appeared at the bend, seemingly accelerating.
Everyone held their breath, watching in astonishment as the red car
inched closer to the Bugatti, then overtook it and crossed the finish
line.
Although the Bugatti followed. closely behind, crossing the line as well, anyone with eyes could see that the red car was a full car length ahead.
After a few moments, the other racers arrived one by one, leaving the crowd utterly dumbfounded.
7/6.

On the other side, Isabella returned
the car to Tristan, who handed her a
bank card.
“There’s 500,000 in there, your prize money for today.”
Isabella accepted it without
hesitation. She knew that for these
amateur races, the prize money
wasn’t that high. Tristan had likely
added to it, but she really needed the
money.
“Thank you.”
Tristan patted her shoulder, giving at roguish grin.
“We’re good buddies, no need for
such formalities. Come on, I’ll give
you a ride back.”
As luck would have it, Cecilia
witnessed this scene, instantly seeing
red.

She knew Isabella was no good. Just yesterday, she was with the second brother at the old mansion, and

man.
Beside her, Adrian’s face was lined. with frustration. The driver today was someone he had specially invited from abroad, costing several million just for this one race. And he had bet 30 million on the guy, now all lost!
If he wasn’t mistaken, the person walking away with Tristan just now seemed to be Isabella. d.
That wretched woman again!
Isabella had no idea the Bugatti belonged to Adrian, much less that he was currently cursing her in his mind.

took out her phone. At that moment,
a call came through.
It was Alexander.
“You’ll administer father’s second injection. Don’t go running around during this time. I’ll send someone to pick you up when it’s time.”
Even through the phone, Isabella could sense the hint of coldness in
his words.
He was clearly the one asking for a favor, yet he still put on a high and mighty air. Isabella wasn’t going to play along. She promptly hung up.
Soon, Alexander’s second call came in.
“Isabella, you dare hang up on me?”
“I’m sorry, my phone only has 90% battery left.”
With those words, Isabella hung up

again and turned off her phone.
“Stop the car!”
Hearing the command from the
back seat, Sebastian hurriedly hit the brakes and turned to see his boss’s dark expression.
No one had ever dared to hang up on him, let alone twice in a row!
If Isabella were standing here right now, he would personally tear her
apart.
He had already been stewing in anger after losing the bet to Ethan. Now, with Isabella provoking him further, his chest felt like it
contained a ticking time bomb,
ready to explode at any moment.
