Chapter 46 Make A Bet
Chapter 46 Make A Bet
Be it in domestic or international competitions, nobody had ever achieved this result in a 4- kilometer
rallycross!
Everyone's faces changed once more, but Nathan seemed calm and collected.
He looked at Natalia with a sober face.
“So what? If you're telling me this just to get me to give up this game, then I am telling you, it’s never
going to happen!”
Natalia chuckled. “You misunderstood me! I don't mean to ask you to give up. I'm just telling you very
objectively that with the current strength of Black Horse, it's simply impossible for you to regain the
championship.”
“You!”
A hot-tempered member could not hold back anymore, and made a move to lunge at Natalia.
However, he was stopped by Nathan.
He looked calmly at Natalia. “Then what do you mean?”
Natalia smirked spontaneously. “I can help you win the championship.”
“What?”
Everyone showed an expression of disbelief.
Natalia continued, “As long as you promise me something, 1 guarantee Black Horse will be the
champion this time.”
Nathan sneered, “I understand what you mean, but I’m sorry, I'm not interested in your offer and I don't
believe what you're saying. I admit that Charlie is indeed a worthy opponent, but he's not strong
enough to make me shrink.”
Natalia wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by him raising his hand.
"Alright, you may leave if there's nothing else you'd like to say. I'm going to prepare for the race."
Natalia frowned.
Seeing that Nathan was determined, she could only leave for now.
The finale started very soon.
Race cars from four teams entered, and then a whistle sounded, indicating the start of the race.
With that, the cars zoomed away like arrows leaving their bows.
The cars rushed out like arrows from the string.
The racetrack was abuzz with excitement while Black Horse members kept their eyes locked on their
car.
At this moment, someone behind him suddenly tapped his shoulder.
The man turned his head back, and when he saw the person standing behind him, he immediately
frowned tightly.
“Why are you here again? You haven't left yet, huh?”
Natalia smiled, pointed at the screen on the racetrack. “Look, your boss is already in third place now. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Even if he barely passes this round, he'll only end up in second place, no matter how hard he tries in
the next round. He can't finish first.”
The man was furious with her, but Natalia was telling the truth, and he couldn't say a word to refute her.
It was undeniable that Nathan was very capable four years ago, but there were always newcomers in
this circle and car racing was a sport that tested racer's reaction and physical coordination.
Nathan was... getting old.
Situations from various road sections were shown on the screen. Nathan was constantly in third place,
and was clinging to the second place. He was left behind by Charlie, who was in first.
Nathan's teammates were slowly becoming dispirited.
Black Horse had been preparing for four years so as to avenge the shame in the past.
During the past four years, they suffered endless ridicule and snobbish looks and endure them silently.
It was so that they could win this competition in the right way, and reclaim their glory!
They wanted to convince those who belittled them that the championship belonged to Black Horse! As
always!
But now the situation......
Was it really not possible this time?
Eventually, the excited team members gradually become worried and uneasy.
The result was announced when the first half of the race was over.
Charlie was ranked first with a time of 1 minute and 48 seconds; the next racer came in second with a
result of 1 minute and 54 seconds; Nathan ranked third with a result of 1 minute and 55 seconds.
The result was quite obvious.
Following that, the referee announced that the three teams would enter the grand finale, which would
begin in half an hour.
Although Black Horse managed to qualify for the final round, the team members were depressed as
they surrounded Nathan heading to the Lounge.
Inside the Lounge, everyone glanced at Nathan.
One of the team members probed carefully, “Bro, what are the chances of us winning the championship
this time?”
Nathan glanced at him.
His face was gloomy for a moment before he said in a deep voice, “I'm sorry, I might have to let you
guys down this time.”
Just now, he had tried his best, but he only managed to finish third.
He did not want to admit it, but he was indeed getting old.
Even though Nathan's skill was still top-notch, the reaction speed of his hands and feet was unable to
keep up. Besides, he could hardly compete with the top-notch racers in their twenties.
When the team members heard him say this, they were all a bit overwhelmed for a while.
“Bro Nathan, don't say that. We believe in you. You can definitely do it!”
“Yes, even if you don't win the championship, it doesn't matter. You will always be our boss!”
Nathan smiled.
He knew his teammates were sincere in saying these words, but it was unavoidable for him to feel
regretful.
After all, Nathan was already 42 years old. If he lost again this year, he would basically never be able to
return to the racetrack to witness Black Horse regain the championship.
At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
A beautiful figure flashed in.
“Director Hale, what do you think? After experiencing it first hand, did you realize that what I said is
true?”
Nathan held his forehead as his head ached when he saw Natalia.
'Why is this girl here again?'
“Natalia, what exactly do you want?”
“I said, I want to help you guys get the championship.” Natalia said confidently.
Nathan looked up at her and frowned. “Racing is not a child's play. Not to mention the result, given that
you're inexperienced, there is also a high risk of injury. Are you sure you still want to go?”
Natalia smiled and leaned forward slightly.
She stared into Nathan's eyes and uttered word by word, “I'm sure. If you don't believe me, we can
make a bet. If I lose, you can do anything you want; if I win, reserve Kallie Franklin’s role in 'The Youth'
for me. What do you think?”
Nathan's pupils shook slightly.
“You're here for The Youth?”
“Of course!”
The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
Nathan and Natalia stared at each other, but neither of them was willing to give way.
It was only after a while that Nathan fiercely gritted his teeth.
“Okay, I agree.”
“Bro Nathan!”
“Nathan, you can't do it!”
The others tried to change Nathan’s mind, but he raised his hand and stopped them.
“But I also have a condition, that is, if you win, you have to join the Black Horse from now on, and for at
least five years, you cannot leave!”
Everyone around was taken aback.
Sure enough, Nathan really cared about his team.
In the past few years, he watched as Flying Eagle, Heavenly Hunter, and a few other teams growing
stronger and stronger. More and more talents emerged, and Charlie, who was as an underdog, had
become the champion for four years consecutively. The young man was incredibly capable, and he
could not be easily challenged.
On the contrary, the Black Horse had declined slowly over the past four years.
It used to be an outstanding team in the country, but they ended up failing to defend their title.
One could imagine how concerned and dismayed they were.
