Chapter 85
While Robin’s heart was pounding, and his hands were busy controlling the steering wheel, he had no time to deal with Calix’s call.
When the phone rang, Michael was the one who answered and passed on the message to Calix, repeating it a few times so he could hear it properly.
“Tell him the race has already started, and I can’t end it just because he says so!” He yelled loudly, but the wind muffled his voice.
However, Calix still heard it. He squeezed the phone, his knuckles turning blue.
He never knew that Anya could go to such extremes when she went mad!
After a long time, he slowly turned his gaze back to the screen.
Upon seeing the screen, his gaze suddenly sharpened!
Locked on!
The car that was previously swerving dangerously was now leaping into the air as it passed the final bend!
“Ah!”
“It’s over!”
Many people watching the race exclaimed, and they could already imagine the impact when the car fell back to the ground.
Such an impact could be lethal!
Anya and Fredrica were doomed!
Some even took out their phones, intending to call the authorities, definitely sure there was going to be a tragedy.
“Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!”

The screen captured Robin and Michael catching up.
The screen didn’t switch fast enough, so everyone could only see their expressions blur.
“Quick, switch the screen!” Someone anxiously pushed the technician, wishing they could turn into a race car and crash the damn slow technician!
The screen finally switched.
What everyone saw was only Cathy’s car, driving forward all alone.
“Where are Anya and Fredrica?”
“Did they crash?”
“Can you see the wreckage of the car?”
“What a pity.”
Calix stared at the screen.
He only saw Cathy’s car.
His grip tightened!
Even though he hated Anya deeply, he never wanted her to die…
He never expected that one day, because of Anya, he would feel his heart pounding, losing control, completely unlike himself!
“Look, nothing happened! They are way ahead!”
The technician’s voice suddenly sounded, filled with excitement.
He only switched the screen to try it out.
He switched to three different screens but didn’t see Anya and Fredrica’s car, so he was thoroughly disappointed.
Unexpectedly, when he switched to the fourth screen, their car appeared!

“Wow, Anya and Fredrica are alive!”
“And they overtook!”
“They overtook by so much!”
For some reason, everyone’s emotions were complex at this moment.
Some were impressed by the two’s extraordinary skills.
Some were relieved that they didn’t die.
Calix’s tensed body slowly relaxed.
He didn’t know why he did what he did.
“Wow, blindfolded racing, it’s unprecedented!”
“The key is they are so skilled.”
“I can guarantee she’s a speed demon!”
Various praises reached Calix’s ears, and he clenched his fist again.
Anya… is a speed demon?
If it were in the past, he wouldn’t believe it.
But after witnessing her skills with his own eyes, his denial lacked conviction.
A perplexed expression flickered in his eyes.
“Well done, Anya!” Fredrica loudly praised Anya from inside the car.
Blindfolded racing was actually more suitable for off–road tracks.
Because off–road tracks were complex and relied more on the co–pilot’s commands.
The eyes didn’t have much use.
In some cases, they might even hinder the driver’s judgment.

Of course, even in the bends, the two knew that though it might be shocking, there wouldn’t be any real danger.
Anya drove at full speed, not responding.
But her lips curved into a smile, showing the confident and determined demeanor unique to a race car driver, with a touch of softness as a woman.
Even with her eyes covered.
Even in this dark night.
She was still bright, radiant!
“Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!”
Robin, looking back at the overtaken Anya, shouted excitedly.
With Michael’s cooperation, they successfully overtook Cathy and raced ahead.
Both of them were too excited to notice a ditch ahead.
Robin’s car charged into the ditch.
Anya and Fredrica had been waiting for Cathy at the finish line for a long time.
Her impatience got the best of her, and Fredrica dozed off in the car.
Only Anya remained at the side of the car, doodling circles with her foot.
Cathy parked her car and slammed the door shut as she walked over.
In the car behind, Winona sat quietly, secretly checking the time.
They were a full ten minutes later than Anya!
For a race car driver, ten minutes could feel like forever.
It was a disgrace! Cathy walked up to Anya and coldly said, “Are you satisfied now that you’ve trampled on me?”

Chapter 85
Anya’s eyebrows faintly twitched, and she only glanced at Cathy without answering.
Compared to Cathy’s anger, she remained much calmer.
Cathy didn’t want to hide her true emotions anymore. Seeing Anya not responding to her, a strong feeling of being ignored washed over her. She wanted to strangle Anya’s neck.
But in the next moment, she started laughing again.
“Even if you win against me, so what? Calix is mine now. He took the initiative to date me, and we are going to get married. For the rest of our lives, no matter how outstanding you are, he will never look back at you!”
Anya stood up straight, her gaze cold in response to Cathy’s words.
Then, they locked eyes, and Anya said, “I raced against you today, not because of Calix.”
“Whether you get engaged or married to him, I won’t be jealous at all. And as for getting back together, Miss Cathy, you’re overthinking it.”
“Did I overthink it, or are you pretending?” Cathy naturally didn’t believe her. “You keep saying that competing with me isn’t about Calix. Besides him, what else is there between you and me?”
“What do you mean, nothing else?” Anya tapped on the side of the car and looked into the distance. “Miss Cathy, have you forgotten? Just a few months ago, your child injured Karina, and four years ago, you almost took the lives of me and my child!”
“What… do you mean?” Cathy’s chest trembled inexplicably, and she stared at Anya even more intently. Her heart was filled with unease.
Anya turned to face her, locking her gaze with Cathy’s. “Four years ago, you inquired about Calix’s and my trip to pay respects to our ancestors from Robert. You deliberately timed it and called Calix on the way, pretending to be kidnapped. Calix left me and our unborn child to rescue you. Have you forgotten?”
“I was really in trouble!” Cathy’s eyes briefly flickered with discomfort, but she still argued, “It’s because you didn’t mean enough to him. Why blame me?”
“If I were you, I would have seen the reality and left Calix back then!”
“Ha!” Anya didn’t rush to say anything, only giving her a contemptuous smile.
Cathy froze in place.

Chapter 85
Even though she had never cared about Anya, this “ha” felt like an invisible slap to her face.
Her face turned pale all of a sudden.
Anya’s gaze grew sharper as she looked at her, as if peeling off her mask of pretense.
“Pretending to be kidnapped and making Calix run around for you for days, you don’t feel a bit sorry for him.”
“Pretending…?” Cathy’s head buzzed, and she felt lost.
The light in her eyes turned even more incredulous as she stared at Anya. How did she know about that? They had kept it hidden back then, and even Calix didn’t find out. How did she know?
“What nonsense are you talking about!” She forced herself to refute Anya.
Anya raised her phone. “I’ve already found the person who planned that incident. They live in Novaria, Sablewood City…”
She listed the person’s detailed address and contact number.
“If you need evidence, I have it too.”
“That’s impossible!”
Anya’s driving skills were not the only thing that crushed her today; she also discovered all these things.
Fear arose on Cathy’s face, and her hands and feet began to tremble.
Anya couldn’t be bothered to talk to her any further. She got into her car, started it, and drove away.
Cathy felt ice–cold all over and couldn’t help but look around. Winona was in the car, far away, unable to hear anything, and Fredrica was sleeping, so no one saw her losing her composure.
It’s okay; as long as she handled it slightly later, this matter could be resolved.
Thinking of this, she regained some composure and walked toward her car.
But after a few steps, Cathy suddenly stopped.
