Gareth’s coldness and warning drove daggers into Elisa’s chest. But she chuckled lightly, “You know
very well that if Grandma wants me over, she’ll make sure that you’ll be there too. She wants us to get
together again. But after visiting Malcom at Lumineer Temple, she no longer insists that we get back
together.”
Gareth’s chest tightened.
Elisa smiled. “That’s why there’s no need for you to be so worried. I remember how kind Grandma was

Elisa smirked. Without another word, she circled the car to the driver’s seat.
Without another glance at Gareth, she fastened her seatbelt and started the car. With a practiced hand,
she disengaged the handbrake and put the car into gear. The car quickly sped away under Gareth’s
watch.
Gareth stood frozen. His anger was close to exploding. He stopped watching the car as Thomas was
coming his way. Gareth closed his eyes to compartmentalize his emotions.

Racing was her father’s favorite sport. She had enjoyed watching her father race. He was so good at it.
But after she had learned how to race and won some of her own races, she got married, and her father
passed away…
She was in so much pain that the thought of racing again, made her sick.

executives had made their way here.
Especially… People like Edward Semoa who was looking forward to watching his son succeed. Carle
had filled him with so much anticipation that he had come too.
He wanted to see who this professional racecar driver that his son had managed to bag.
Rachel and Sheena had also arrived, and the two girls were chatting with Carle. Edward was an

Rachel’s eyes lit up when she saw who it was. She waved excitedly at Elisa, “Babe, we’re over here!”
