Chapter 238 We’re Lucky
Just then, the car behind Leo and Maggie accelerated. Its front was pressing against their rear bumper, causing great friction and sparking.
From the rearview mirror, Maggie noticed that it was the flashy red Lamborghini from earlier.
The driver was upset that they managed to pull ahead.
Leo wasn’t bothered about it.
He accelerated without warning, creating a distance from the Lamborghini.
However, the Lamborghini sped up. As they approached the next turn, Leo stepped on the gas pedal.
The driver of the Lamborghini cursed at them and he also stepped on the gas. He refused to admit defeat.
The onlookers at the starting point were commenting excitedly.
“They’re too close to the second car! An accident might happen!”
“The car in front isn’t yielding, and the one behind is speeding up. The white Ferrari is at risk of flipping”
“But he seems
skilled, he should be able to manoeuver out of it!”
Nathael remained silent and fixed his gaze on the white Ferrari.
“They’re catching up!” someone shouted.
Soon, the three cars aligned. The middle car would easily be flung out of the course during the curve.
When Leo was about to collide with the car in front, he steered to the outer course and slowed down.
The road was narrow, typically allowing only two cars to pass side by side.
Leo raced along the cliff’s edge. The driver of the car behind him was taken aback by his move. A loud bang was heard next.
Leo manoeuvered behind him and pressed against his rear bumper like what he had done to Leo earlier.
As they approached the next curve, the driver turned pale. His car flipped over and tumbled down the hill as he was unable to brake in time.
Maggie couldn’t help but recall the time she had also plunged her car off a cliff.
She had been severely injured. The rescue team hesitated to approach her because her vehicle was on the verge of exploding.
It was Leo who had rescued her, from the wreckage. Shortly after they moved away, the vehicle exploded.
It was the first time that they had a close brush with death.
Since then, his driving skills have improved and they rarely had any accidents.

Navigating through the twists and turns, they reached a junction and began their way to the summit from a different route.
They slowed down as they climbed, easing the tension in everyone’s hearts.
Perhaps being too close to each other, the car in front of Leo suddenly slowed down even more to block Leo from overtaking him. The driver blocked Leo’s path no matter which direction he went.
Leo was frustrated as he couldn’t speed up or overtake the car in front.
Glancing at the car that was approaching behind them, Maggie said coldly, “Let the one behind deal with. it, killing two birds with one stone.”
Leo chuckled. “I was thinking the same thing.”
With that, Leo reduced his speed and created a gap with the car in front of him. He did the same thing to the car behind him.
The driver behind him made several attempts to overtake, but Leo didn’t budge. He was irritated at Leo.
The two cars were competing for a better position. One wanted to overtake, another one was determined to block.
The driver behind gritted his teeth and suddenly accelerated.
Bang!
The car behind rammed into Leo’s car. Maggie felt a huge impact, almost being flung out of the car.
Leo had to speed up to shake him off.
He sped up and pretended that he was struggling to keep a slight distance from the car behind. At the next curve, some pebbles on the road caused him to slow down as he lost control of the steering wheel.
The driver behind took the opportunity and overtook them excitedly.
However, he collided with the rear of the car in front with great force.
A loud crash was heard instantly. The car in front had gone off course and the car behind skidded to the side.
Leo seized the opportunity and he was in the second place.
With less than a third of the track remaining, there were only a few cars left.
The car in front was a black sports car. Maggie couldn’t see what car it was due to the dark surroundings.
This car had been leading from the start. It was obvious that the driver was a regular racer at Table Mountain. He should have good skills.
Leo gradually accelerated, leaving the two cars behind.
As time passed, Leo and the first car were neck and neck. Neither of them used any tricks. They were overtaking each other as they raced.

The situation remained the same until they reached the final stretch of the track.
During the last sprint, Maggie could feel that Leo’s car was already a bit unstable, probably due to the intense competition earlier. There was some damage due to scraping against the mountainside..
The other car was still in good condition. Although it had some friction with other vehicles at the beginning, it seemed stable for now.
Maggie silently calculated the distance. She knew that it was most difficult to overtake on this straight road.
Now the two cars were neck and neck, it was just a matter of luck.
Just then, there was another bang. The car next to them spun in place and it was heading towards Leo and Maggie’s car.
“Punctured tire“, Maggie said nonchalantly.
Although the car hit Leo’s car, there was not much distance left. The other party had no chance of competing for first place, so Maggie couldn’t help but feel happy.
“It seems that luck is on our side today!” Maggie smiled. Leo glanced at her from the corner of his eye.
She looked flush and tipsy.
However, he was worried when he thought about the Dream Venom that Maggie had mentioned.
Soon, Maggie saw the sexy girl waving a flag at the finish line. The crowd was cheering wildly on both sides.
“Congratulations, Mr. Caleb!”
As they crossed the finish line, the surrounding horns erupted in enthusiastic cheers. Everyone surrounded their car with excitement.
Maggie got out of the car with a bright smile.
But, she looked up and locked gazes with someone.
