“When did I ever say I liked Lauren? I’ve always told you, I see Lauren as a little sister!”
He should have known. Women were always so jealous.
Wasn’t this whole scene Brianna was making just a way to force him to acknowledge their relationship?
Brandon’s expression darkened. “Brianna, stop being unreasonable! I promised you that on the day of your coming-of-age ceremony, I would grant you your deepest wish.”
He deliberately emphasized the word “wish,” his tone laced with a threat. “If you keep this up, forget about your wish. I won’t even show up to your ceremony!”
“Oh,” Brianna said. “Don’t worry, I wasn’t planning on inviting you.”
Her coming-of-age ceremony was sure to be a grand affair hosted by the Blackwood family.
With the Keller family’s meager background, they wouldn’t even be able to get through the gates of the Blackwood estate without her permission.
Brianna had no desire to argue with him anymore and moved to Serena’s side.
“You…!” Brandon’s face was contorted with an ugly expression.
Just then, Adrian walked over holding the key card for the “Dark Serpent GT,” his chin slightly raised.
He was speaking to Brianna, but his burning gaze was fixed on Serena. “Now that Overdrive is established, I, with the Dark Serpent GT, challenge Ghost!”
“A challenge? Fine.”
Serena shielded Brianna behind her, her eyes lifting slightly, her voice cool and detached. “According to the rules of Overdrive, as the challenger who lit the lantern, if you fail, you not only lose your car to us, but you also have to… let the exclusive tattoo artist of Apex Horizon Speedway brand your left arm with the word ‘Loser.’ And… you must kneel in public on the track and perform the loser’s rite of submission.”
She curved her scarlet lips, a hint of mockery in her eyes. “Mr. Cole, you are aware of all this, aren’t you?”
Adrian’s expression shifted slightly.
