Chapter 1708
Nicole's car was already on the verge of going downhill. But after it had collided with Jared's, it steered back to the
main road.
It continued spinning for two more rounds, and after countless sparks released, the car finally came to a stop.
"The car has been successfully parked,” the artificial intelligence responded.
Nicole heaved a sigh of relief, for it seemed that the car had finally stopped, but if Jared had not reacted soon
enough, she would have been in deep trouble.
As soon as Nicole thought of Jared, she immediately came back to her senses. She had been knocked from the
side, and that was still fine, but Jared had been struck right at the front.
With that thought in mind, Nicole quickly got out of her car.
"Jared! Are you okay?" She instantly went to the side of Jared's car.
As expected, Jared had fainted, but after being shaken by Nicole a few times, he slowly opened his eyes.
Fortunately, he wore a helmet. Jared removed it, shook his head, and came back to his senses.

Nicole nodded, "That car's security system is quite good. You better worry about yourself. How do you feel?"
As Nicole was speaking, she entered the passenger seat and checked on Jared's pulse. Fortunately, there were no
major issues. It was only then that Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm fine too." Jared said, though he felt sad as he looked at the car he had gifted to Nicole.
His eyes became downcast. "Why would the car malfunction?"
It was a custom-built car and he had specially assigned someone to take care of it. At this rate, he could not help
but wonder if someone had sabotaged it.
"We'll check it once we're back. Let's get out of here first."
After Nicole had spoken, she got into Jared's car.
Jared explained the situation briefly through the walkie- talkie. He then asked the other participants to turn around
while they drove down the hill.
Although they were not hurt, Jared went on to grill all of the people in charge of the driving circuit. He had also fired
all those he thought he should fire.
Max then investigated the entire process of the car's journey, from the customs until it reached the circuit.
However, he did not find any problems.
"There's only one possibility, and that is someone had tampered with the car before the competition even began."
Nicole frowned.
Indeed, the only chance someone would get was when the valet drove the car over to the circuit.
At that moment, Jared was reminded of something. "Where is that racing driver?"
Max shook his head, "I'm not sure. I checked the CCTV and this person had never removed his helmet. He was not
someone working in the circuit either. He is quite suspicious, n
Nicole's eyes darkened. "Let's begin the investigation by looking into his uniform. It should be limited edition."
A flash of light appeared in Max's eyes. "Alright, I'll work on that now."
After Max had left, Nicole looked at Jared and observed that he was not feeling well. "Let's go. We're going to the
hospital to give you a full body check-up.
Jared had just recovered not long ago. Now that he had received a hit at high velocity, Nicole was worried that he
had sustained internal injuries once again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alright, but you should be the one getting a full body checkup." Jared was saving her, and thus, he was prepared to
face the collision.
As for Nicole, it was unexpected.
The both of them were looking at each other sympathy and tenderness. Then, they left the driving circuit.
What they did not notice were a pair of eyes staring at them in the dark, and those eyes were Everett's. He was
glaring at Nicole fiercely.
'She's just lucky that she can't even die with him,' he fumed.
His first order of business was to take away the Crest. However, it seemed that he had to wait for the next
opportunity.
After Nicole and Jared were done with their check-up at the hospital, Martin looked at the both of them and
reported with relief, "The both of you are fine. Except that Mr. Jared here has a concussion. You should go home
and get some good rest."
Nicole nodded. "Thank you."
Martin was a little worried about Nicole. "Please be careful these days. I feel like you're always in danger."
Indeed, the Crest was a dangerous item for her to bear.
And with much solemnness, Nicole replied. "I understand. Don't worry about it."
