Chapter 128: From This Moment On, Luna’s My New Mommy!

Savannah saw the Corona’s hood pop open, a triumphant smirk spreading across her face. The car would have to slow down, or it would crash. The mechanics waved a flag, signaling Evelyn to enter the repair pit. In a speed race, the fastest lap time wins. If the hood was fixed, Luna could still win.
But the Corona sped past the pit entrance, showing no

“How’s she supposed to race like this?!”
intention of stopping.
Even the mechanics were aghast, watching the speeding car with its raised hood.
“Holy shit!” The wealthy young men in the VIP box straightened up, some grabbing binoculars. Sam Hayes’s eyes widened as he saw the Corona showing no signs of slowing down. He stood up. Lindsey, witnessing her first race, knew that with the hood up, the driver’s view was blocked, and the car could easily veer off course.
She whispered, “Why isn’t the driver stopping?”
Sam Hayes, after watching for two seconds, grinned, exhilarated by the danger.“Because for China’s top female racer, this is nothing!”
Celia gripped the railing. During the preparations for the Washington race, Evelyn had driven countless laps on this track, practicing eight to nine hours a day, wearing out tires. Every turn and straight was etched in her memory. Even five years later, she could navigate it blindfolded. “That’s reckless!” Grandma Reed scoffed. A raised hood, no attempt at repair–she disapproved of such recklessness.
Tommy and Alex Reed, glued to the screen, held their breath. Caleb followed the action on the screen, still refusing to believe that Evelyn was driving the Corona at 300 kilometers
per hour. Was she *that* good? She’d never shown such skill at the Reed mansion
He struggled to recall details from their life together. They’d spent lit me together; after Reed Willow’s death, he’d deliberately ignored her. He vaguely remembered her getting speeding tickets her first year driving the kids. Grandma Reed had commented, “Country bumpkins don’t know traffic laws, never driven good cars.” She’d hired professional drivers to teach Evelyn how to drive. After that, she never exceeded 60 kilometers per hour.
The air crackled with anticipation. The entire crowd stood, their cheers a tidal wave engulfing Caleb.
In another VIP box, Damon grabbed a man by the collar, pressing his head against the window. This was the mechanic who’d tampered with the Corona’s hood. The man knelt, his hands braced against the glass, eyes wide with terror. Damon held his head, forcing him to look ahead. Hand in his pocket, he leaned in, his sharp eyebrows and cold eyes like a vortex pulling the man
- in.
“Watch, and pray that nothing can stop her from reaching the light.”
The mechanic’s gaze trembled as he watched the Corona. His heart pounded. If the Corona crashed, he’d spend his life in prison! He’d tampered with the hood thinking Luna would stop for repairs, just to disrupt her rhythm. He hadn’t expected the consequences. Sweat streamed down his face.
The roar of the engine vibrated through the track. The Corona, like a black lightning bolt, hurtledy

towards the finish line. Tires screeched, smoke billowing. Evelyn pulled the handbrake; the Corona carved a perfect arc, the sharp braking sound cutting through the air!
“Damn! That was insane!” The young men had forgotten about Savannah. They wiped sweat from their brows.
“I almost threw up from the tension!”
“Corona wins, hands down. Only Luna can beat Luna!”
“I was lucky enough to race against Luna at Gracing Mountain. It was worth it!”
The crowd erupted. Everyone chanted Luna’s name.
“Aaaaaah!” Tommy screamed.“Luna is awesome! The greatest racer! My goddess!” He threw himself on Grandma Reed’s lap.“Grandma! Luna won! I want Luna as my new mommy!”
Grandma Reed held his hand.“You don’t even know what she looks like! What if she’s ugly?”
Tommy insisted, “She’s my idol! My goddess! I want her! I want her!” He stamped his feet.
The Corona stopped. The door opened, and the racer stepped out. The cameras focused on Luna as she lifted her helmet. Her face appeared on the giant screen.
