Cora kept speaking without stopping. “She’s angry because I took her place. She hates seeing you with me, so she’s using this dirty trick to stop you. She’s scared that once you go back to racing, you’ll slowly move further away from her. Leonard, wake up!”
Leonard’s heart suddenly tightened as he stared at Quincy.
She stayed still, quietly looking back at him.
The bald man spoke at the right time. “Mr. Barnes, I’m not here to waste time. Just answer me. Are you quitting the race or not?”
Leonard stayed quiet for a long while before finally speaking.
“Quincy, stop this already. I know you’re upset, but this race really matters to me.”
He paused, his voice carrying a hint of pleading. “After I win the championship, I’ll come back and stay with you, alright?”
Quincy smiled faintly, but the last bit of light in her eyes disappeared at once.
Leonard waited, but got no reply. Irritation flashed across his face. “Quincy, say something!”
Cora quickly spoke from the side. “Quincy, this isn’t the time to be angry with Leonard. You know better than anyone how important racing is to him.”
Quincy still stayed silent, the smile on her face turning colder and more mocking.
Leonard finally lost his patience. “Just go home first. After the race ends, I’ll come back and stay with you.”
After saying that, he directly ended the video call.
The bald man instantly got angry and kicked Quincy hard onto the floor.
“If Mr. Dixon didn’t interfere last time, Russell would never have agreed to delete those photos. This time, you won’t be that lucky again!”
While speaking, his phone suddenly rang. It was Russell calling. “Miss Crawford paid ten million to buy Quincy’s life.”
The bald man paused for a second before quickly replying, “Alright, I know what to do.”
After ending the call, he told his men to stuff Quincy into a sack and throw her into the ocean.
The freezing sea swallowed Quincy whole. She struggled desperately, but she only sank faster.
Her thoughts slowly became unclear. She couldn’t hear anything around her, only one familiar voice.
“Quincy, marry me!”
After that…
“I regret it. I suffer every single day.”
And then….
“Quincy, stop making things difficult. Once I win the championship, I’ll stay with you properly.”
So this was the man she gave her life to protect.
No, she wouldn’t die!
Quincy abruptly woke up, hatred burning in her eyes.
She tore the sack apart and forced herself to swim back to shore.
Nobody was around. Pulling her weak body forward, she headed to the police station to report what had happened.
When her statement ended, it was already the next morning.
Quincy returned to the villa. Right after her shower, her phone alarm rang.
It was time to head to the competition.
After changing clothes and getting ready to leave, Quincy received a call from Diana.
“Quincy, the divorce procedures are complete. You’re a good child. I hope everything goes well for you in the future.”
“I will.”
Right after hanging up, Quincy received a WhatsApp message from Leonard.
[Quincy, I’m about to compete soon. Wait for me to come back.]
A cold smile appeared on her lips. From now on, they no longer had any connection.
Quincy called the police and requested an investigation into her kidnapping.
After the call, she told the servants to throw all her belongings into the garbage station, then left without looking back.
The car slowly drove away. Looking at the scenery fading outside the window, there was not the slightest trace of attachment in Quincy’s eyes.
From that moment on, she would no longer be bound by love and affection.
She would cut ties with the past, once again walk the path of chasing her dreams, and live for herself.
