Chapter 425 Joining The Race 3
Even Milly couldn’t contain her excitement. After all, over $10 million was what her brother’s entire team would earn in a national championship if they all placed at the top.
Meanwhile, Hera was rallying the Young Masters and even Dave to place their bets, reminding them that the winner would take the entire pot—no splitting with anyone else.
Why wouldn’t Milly be excited? Her brother was the ace of their team and the most likely to win the bet.
If it wasn’t him, it would probably be Dave or someone else from the national team—but definitely not Hera or the Young Masters, who were more used to spending that kind of money than earning it.
They didn’t even flinch when Hera mentioned the bet. Without hesitation, they all agreed to put in a million per person.
Those who wanted to join could race the two laps to prove who was the better driver.
All the young masters eagerly joined the bet, and Milly, along with her brother, joined as well. Her portion was covered by her brother, who reluctantly dipped into his savings after she insisted. Still, confident in his chances of winning, he decided to go along with it.
Dave was about to contribute $2 million to the pool, but Milly’s loud, baffled voice stopped him in his tracks.
"What?! Dave, you’re paying for Hera?" Milly exclaimed, tilting her head as if deep in thought. "But she was the one who suggested the bet. I figured she’d cover her own share."
Her eyes narrowed as she added, "Don’t tell me, she planned this all along—getting you to pay and then sharing the winnings if you win." The suspicion in her tone painted Hera’s intentions in a negative light.
The group’s mood quickly shifted as Milly’s words sunk in. What had been a lighthearted atmosphere turned tense, with amiable expressions fading.
