At that time, Nicola was indeed the true king of drivers. After she finished the race and the contest three
years
ago was totally turkey shoot.
To be precise, Nicola’s two laps to the runner–up’s one lap.
But Nicola did not enter the competition again so the runner–up won the championship the next year.
Long after the competition, she was still the legend. Talk about racing! Nicola was the real top driver and
others had an outside chance to beat her.
The silence still covered the conference room.
Barnett looked at the crowd, and then spoke again, “Well, it seems that you all could recollect what a
formidable speed racer Nicola was!”
Harriet frowned. “But three years passed and nobody has any news bout her. It seems highly likely
something
has gone wrong with her, or she has just deserted racing. Can we have her work for us?”

This was the world that money was in power and everyone was struggling for money, and Nicola was no
exception! She couldn’t live without money!
Barnett turned back to Henry’s face. “President King, in my opinion, the best bet must be Nicola
according to
the current situation.”
Henry still seemed indifferent. “Who can make contact with Nicola?”
“I can! My grandson is wild about the racing car and he was also a contestant at the race three years
ago. But
he has gotten in a crash due to a vehicle malfunction that day. The accident took his leg and he could not
drive
a racing car any longer, which overwhelmed him badly and at that very minute Nicola came to encourage

you have any idea about who Nicola is? I guess either you had made a mistake or that woman might

your grandson a fake number, or a number unavailable.”
Barnett creased his forehead in a fluster. “No way, I’ll try again.”
The office was quiet again, and he dialed the phone again nervously
Here, a long last, someone answered the phone. Barnett’s face lit up, and the others also fastened their
eyes.

always got lots of talent.
