International Grand Prix (Part Two)

Liam was next. He veered dangerously close, his car almost touching hers.

Vanessa didn't flinch.

Instead, she played along.

She pretended to be struggling, slightly jerking her steering wheel as if she was losing control.

Liam took the bait.

Smirking, he tried to squeeze her towards the barrier — but that was exactly what she wanted.

At the last second, Vanessa cut right and used the barrier's momentum to push herself forward, just enough to escape his trap.

Liam, caught off guard, overcompensated his turn.

His tires screeched.

He spun out, barely avoiding a full crash as his car skidded into the side of the track.

The crowd erupted.

Two down.

But Vanessa had no time to celebrate.

Because Rina was still there.

And she wasn't like the others.

Unlike Carlos and Liam, Rina wasn't reckless. 

She was methodical.
