On the first day of a new year, after Darling successfully defended her championship title in the year's first race.
Excited to finally reveal myself as the team's elusive mystery coach, I approached the lounge only to overhear her and Gunner's blush-inducing pants from outside the door.
"Melody, you little temptress, you're going to drain me dry!"
"It's not my fault you're out of shape."
"Oh, by the way, my husband's coming to celebrate with me soon. You can't leave any marks on me."
Just as those words fell, I received a text from Melody.
Every word expressed her love for me.
Each letter pierced my heart like a dagger.
I didn't reply. Instead, I opened a chat with a profile totally black.
[I accept your previous invitation, but I can't afford a plane ticket right now.]
The reply came swiftly: [Don't worry about that. I'll send someone to pick you up.]

After Racer Darling's Betrayal, I Part

After a grueling flight that lasted over ten hours, I finally disembarked from the plane.


As soon as I stepped off, the physical and mental exhaustion of the past few days caught up with me, and I fell into a deep slumber.


When I next opened my eyes, three days had passed.


I surveyed my surroundings, and it was clear I was in a hospital.


Apparently, Vivienne had been quite concerned about me.


Seeing my eyes open, Vivienne exclaimed with exaggerated surprise, "Wow, Jaxon, you've finally woken up!"


"I thought I'd spent a few million bucks on a professional sleeper!"


Noticing that I, lying in bed, showed no reaction to her mockery, Vivienne pursed her lips and tossed a USB drive at me. "Take a look at what's inside. I'm sure you'll find it very interesting."


She gave me a meaningful look before turning to leave.


I plugged the USB drive into the room's computer, and a video file immediately popped up.
