Chapter 272 Betting on Ace Lin’s Victory
Surrounded by Hendrick and the others, Kate’s delicate and beautiful face was filled with coldness and disdain as she glared at them sternly.
“Hey, little girl from Haldoria, did we hit a nerve?“. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Haha, definitely! Such a pretty girl, too bad she’s from Haldorial”
“See, Haldoria people are so arrogant. Even a young girl dares to act wild on our Krusada’s turf.”
As they talked, they sneered and rolled up their sleeves while walking towards Kate and her group. Their actions caught the attention of others, and in no time, a dozen or so people clenched their fists and approached Kate’s group, each wearing a hostile expression.
Kate remained calm, her expression didn’t change, coldly observing those from Krusada approaching her. George and the others swiftly stepped forward, shielding Kate behind them.
“What, looking for trouble?”
George’s voice was cold, his eyes filled with a menacing chill.
Even though this wasn’t Haldoria, they had their own influence in Krusada and weren’t afraid of the locals.
“What’s going on? Do you think you can act recklessly in the car yard?”
Just as tensions peaked between both sides, a few security personnels intervened, instantly silencing the group, who quickly turned around with apologetic smiles. “No, no, it’s just these Haldoria folks who don’t know their place.”
“You were the ones who insulted us Haldoria folks first, and now you want to play innocent?”
Kate stared at their suddenly changed expressions, speaking bluntly.
The security personnel glanced at Kate, and then at the others, and said firmly, “Everyone, clear out. Ace Lin and Hurricane’s race is starting early. If you don’t want to watch the race, get lost!”
After hearing that, the dozen or so people turned and walked away, not daring to say more. But before they left, one person shot George a nasty look.
Kate’s face stayed serious as she looked away. She walked directly to the betting counter and slapped down a card without hesitation. Her voice was icy as she said, “One point five million dollars on Ace Lin to win.”
Ever since Kate and her group caught those people’s attention earlier, others in the area had already noticed her. Now, seeing her confidently place a hefty bet of 1.5 million on Ace Lin, the place erupted in surprise.
“Are you sure about this, miss?”
The staff hesitated as they looked at Kate. After all, this race was between an unknown racer, Lin, and
1/2
the internationally renowned driver, Hurricane! Most people were betting on Hurricane to win, and there were very few supporters for Lin.
“Absolutely.” Kate replied, her expression impassive.
Not to mention that his name also had “Lin,” but just because he was from Haldoria, she wanted to bet on him to win!
Hmph! Underestimating Haldoria folks, huh?
Hendrick quietly pulled out a card and said softly, “One point five million dollars on Ace Lin to win.”
George looked at the siblings, pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then also took out a card. With a slight cough, he said, “One hundred fifty thousand dollars on Ace Lin to win.”
His 150 thousand was nothing compared to Kate’s 1.5 million.
But he shrugged helplessly. He was just a butler. He couldn’t compete with Mrs. Davison and the CEO of the Lowe Group.
Word got around fast that a few folks from Haldoria had dropped over the
million on Ace Lin.
Meanwhile, the staff escorted Kate and her crew respectfully to their seats in the stands. They snagged prime spots near the front, with a perfect view of the whole arena. Not only could they see the overall situation on the field, but there was also a huge screen showing Ace Lin and Hurricane’s race live.
Suddenly, people around them looked at them with curiosity.
Where did these Haldoria people come from, betting over three million right off the bat?
And betting over three million on that unknown Lin to win–must be some seriously loaded fools!
