Chapter 69 The Racing Appointment

Chapter 69 The Racing Appointment

Maria Adams's combat abilities truly left Gabriel Edwards in awe.

She was just a young woman in her early twenties, yet she was valiant and domineering in her skills.

In just a few moves, she took down both Sparrow and Eagle, and subdued Thomas Taylor.

And it was evident that Maria Adams had not even used her full strength.

It could be said that this girl's combat abilities were extraordinary.

"Maria? Are you the Maria Adams from the Adams family?"

The subdued Thomas Taylor was initially struggling fiercely.

Being thrown to the ground by a woman in front of Gabriel Edwards was a great humiliation.

But when he heard Evan Ward call this girl "Maria," he instantly thought of someone.

The four great beauties in Silverwood are the sisters from the Foster family, the young widow from the Davis family, and the "tigress" from the Adams family.

The "tigress" from the Adams family referred to Maria Adams.

The reason she earned this nickname was that although she was a woman, her combat abilities were extraordinarily domineering.

More manly than men!

It was said that she alone could take down more than a dozen men.

This woman was delicately beautiful, had terrifying skills, and was also called Maria.

It must undoubtedly be Maria Adams from the Adams family.

"Maria Adams?"

Gabriel Edwards, who was originally just watching the commotion, stood up straight upon hearing this name.

The councillor that Leon had arranged for him to meet today was Santos Adams.

In addition to his special status as a councillor, Santos Adams was also the grandfather of one of the four great beauties ofSilverwood, Maria Adams.

What a coincidence.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he walked towards Maria Adams and Thomas Taylor.

What he initially thought was a troublesome matter now seemed to be an interesting one.

"Hey hey!"

Calling out twice, Ava Foster followed behind Gabriel Edwards, who was ignoring her, and also walked over.

She had made up her mind now; no matter when or where, she had to keep a close eye on Gabriel Edwards.

She couldn't let another woman snatch away Mr. Gale."

This woman, who was incredibly good at fighting and also beautiful, had to be guarded against in case she lured Gabriel Edwards away.

"Enough talk. It doesn't matter who I am. Tonight at eight o'clock, at the intersection of the Grassland Road, will you race against me again or not?"

Maria Adams couldn't care less about anything else. Right now, all she had in mind was racing.

She had to win Thomas Taylor, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to eat or sleep.

Because when Maria Adams does something, she either doesn't do it or she has to be the best.

In the realm of racing, she would never allow a grassroots racing king to surpass her!

She was the racing champion, the true racing king!

Before Thomas Taylor could speak, Gabriel Edwards came from the entrance, smiling and saying, "My Boss is not afraid of you. He's the invincible grassroots minivan god! But if you want my Boss to step up, there has to be some stakes to pique his interest. Otherwise, who would accompany you out in the cold wind late at night?"

Maria Adams suddenly turned around, her sharp gaze coldly shooting at Gabriel Edwards.

She then looked disdainfully at Thomas Taylor and said, "The standard you have for accepting younger brothers is really low. You even accept this kind of rural alternative guy? Aren't you afraid of losing face when you bring him out? But this guy does have a point. If you agree to race with me, you can decide the stakes, and I, Maria Adams, will accept them all!"

This bold confidence exuded a strong masculine vibe.

Thomas Taylor, still in a sorry state on the ground, quickly understood that Gabriel Edwards intended to race against Maria Adams.

So, he said, "Alright, see you at the intersection of the Grassland Road at eight o'clock tonight. As for the stakes, we'll discuss them when we meet!"

It was certain that he couldn't decide on the stakes by himself. He had to wait until Maria Adams left and then discuss with Gabriel Edwards.

Having received a response, Maria Adams finally released Thomas Taylor and slowly stood up.

She flicked her leather jacket and took out a piece of Doublemint chewing gum from her pocket.

She started chewing it again.

"Remember, eight o'clock tonight. If you don't show up, I'll break your legs!"

With that threatening remark, Maria Adams turned around, exuding ultimate elegance.

When she reached Evan Ward, Evan Ward affectionately linked arms with her.

They looked intimately like a couple as they left together.

"Tom, how does it feel to be beaten up by a woman?"

Gabriel Edwards squatted down and teased Thomas Taylor.

Thomas Taylor, with a face full of shame, touched his head somewhat embarrassedly, "Boss, once I get married in the future, I'll get used to it. But today, I'm really upset!"

"Don't be upset; you're not on the same level as that woman!"

Gabriel Edwards pulled Thomas Taylor up, sighed, and continued, "But it's also your fault. Last time you told me about the four great beauties in Silverwood, I thought you knew all of them. I didn't expect one of them to pin you down, and you didn't even know who she was!"

Thomas Taylor chuckled, "That's my fault. But Maria Adams only returned to Silverwood in recent years. She used to live in Sapphire Peaks. And people of her stature, I really couldn't have come into contact with them before. Knowing Stella Turner was just a coincidence from a single encounter!"

Gabriel Edwards nodded silently and fell into deep thought.

Behind him, Ava Foster, upon hearing the name Stella Turner, felt a pang of jealousy and disdainfully said, "Hmph, no matter how beautiful Stella Turner is, she's still a widow. How can she compare to a pure-hearted girl like me?"

"It seems that you really don't understand men!"

Gabriel Edwards said, exchanging a glance with Thomas Taylor.

They then burst into laughter in unison.

The understanding between men is established just like that.

Meanwhile, Ava Foster blinked in confusion, completely clueless.

"Alright, it's about time. I need to leave. We'll go to the race tonight together. As for the stakes, I have something in mind."

Taking out his phone to check the time, Gabriel Edwards prepared to leave.

He took off the red wig he was wearing and removed the Hachishen jacket.

Instantly, he looked much more handsome and serious. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you!"

Ava Foster stepped forward and grabbed Gabriel Edwards's arm, determined to stick to him.

Familiarity breeds fondness, right? She didn't believe she couldn't win him back.

Gabriel Edwards pushed Ava Foster's hand away, saying exasperatedly, "Enough. I'm going to handle important things, not to date a woman. Why are you following me? Go dye your hair back; this look really doesn't suit you."

Leaving those words behind, Gabriel Edwards left the combat room.

This time, Ava Foster didn't chase after him but asked Thomas Taylor, "Where's a hair salon?"

Actually, she also felt that her current look was a bit... silly.

Gabriel Edwards went downstairs, had a cigarette, and then waited for Leon's car.

He quickly dashed over, got in the car, making sure no one saw him.

"Mr. Gabriel!"

Upon seeing Gabriel Edwards, Leon greeted him respectfully.

But he still maintained a stern and indifferent demeanor.

Gabriel Edwards nodded, crossed his legs, and said, "Hmm, we're meeting Mr. Adams today. Everything's arranged, right?"

Whether they could counter the Davis family in politics depended on whether they could get Mr. Adams's support.

After a slight hesitation, Leon replied, "I've already met and discussed with Mr. Adams. He has agreed to meet you, and he probably has intentions to cooperate. However, he's a bit eccentric, so I can't guarantee that we'll reach an agreement. Given the current situation in Silverwood, Mr. Adams is the best potential partner. If we can get his support, it will greatly help us in taking down the Davis family.''

Gabriel Edwards nodded silently, already having a plan in mind.

He took out a cigarette and offered one to Leon.

Leon, being very observant, quickly lit the cigarette for him.

After taking a smoke, Gabriel Edwards spoke again, "On our way to see Mr. Adams, we have some time. There are things I need to clarify with you."

"Please speak," Leon leaned forward slightly.

Gabriel Edwards, squinting his eyes, said, "Firstly, to be precise, I shouldn't ask you. You should be reporting to me. Who exactly is Joseph Moore?"
