Chapter 15 Clearly , the guy hadn't recognized whose car this was yet - they just thought the driver's skills were insane . He quickly shouted through the walkie - talkie , " Yo , bros , did you guys see that sports car just zoom past all of you ? " Soon , replies started coming in . " Yeah , saw it ! That car looks so familiar . Who's driving it ? " " Since when do we have someone this good around here ? " " Man , I'd love to see this person go head - to - head with Jaylen ." The chatter from the guys got broadcast to everyone on the track via walkie - talkies . Jaylen heard it too . Even though this racetrack was public , with no official race happening , the track wasn't cleared , and any gearhead could jump on the track right now . So , there weren't many people racing at this hour . Who could it be ? He couldn't help but check the rearview mirror . One glance and bam - even he froze like a deer in headlights . There was actually a sports car behind him , moving like it was on wheels - zipping and weaving through traffic at breakneck speed , closing in on him . The way it was moving ? Totally pro - level . But that was not what shocked Jaylen . What stunned him was … ' Isn't that the exact car I picked out for Narissa ? Which means … the person driving it is Narissa ? ' No … no way ! ' How is that even possible ?! ' He couldn't believe it . " Oh my god . I remember now ! Isn't that the Everton girl's car ? " " OMG , is it really her ? " " Is she that good ? " " These driving skills … insane ! She's giving Jaylen a run for his money ! " " Wait … is Jaylen actually gonna lose ? " 1/4 12:03 Tue , Aug 19 G K 100 % D X - +15 Chapter 15 Once the guys realized whose ride that was , the comms channel exploded with freak - outs . But Narissa ? Already J - hooked past Jaylen's supercar all on pure racing genius . She passed him . And not just any pass - she used a pro - level reverse hook technique , something even Jaylen hadn't mastered yet . At that moment , Jaylen and the guys behind him were completely stunned . ' Holy shit - even Jaylen hasn't mastered that move yet ! And the chick we dissed just nailed it ?! ' Thinking back to how they'd acted and what they'd said to Narissa earlier , the guys now felt utterly humiliated . The outcome ? Totally expected . Narissa's sports car crossed the finish line first . The others followed shortly after . The moment Narissa stepped out of her car , Jaylen and the guys rushed over to her . Jaylen couldn't hold back his excitement . " Congrats , Narissa ! You just broke the track record ! " " Mhm ." But in response to their hyped - up reactions , Narissa just slightly furrowed her brows and gave a casual reply . It was too slow . For her , the speed she'd just hit on the track was way below her usual level . Guess she was a bit rusty after not racing for so long . " Narissa , would you consider officially joining our racing team ? I'll even give you the captain's spot , " Jaylen offered again . " Yeah , your majesty ! That move you just pulled was pro - level ! " " Totally ! We were blind earlier , daring to challenge you . If you join us , we'll make sure you get the captain's position ! " Besides Jaylen , the other guys were just as pumped . Not long ago , they were still debating whether Narissa could even join their racing team . But now , they'd gladly accept her as their captain - no complaints whatsoever . All because none of them could pull off the racing skills she just showed off . " No for the captain title , " Narissa said with a casual eyebrow raise , responding to their excitement . " But as agreed , I'll join your team . " " However , " she paused , " I'm usually pretty busy , so I might not always make it to your races . " " No problem ! Just having you on board is awesome . " " Yeah ! Welcome to the team , your majesty ." And just like that , Narissa officially connected with Jaylen and the other guys . 2/4 12:03 Tue , Aug 19 G 100 % 0 X Chapter 15 She gave a nod . It was getting late . Even though she hadn't met up with the contact sent by her superiors or handed over the Blood Ruby because of Bastien , at least she still had the gem with her . Just in case , after swapping contact info with the guys , Narissa decided to call it a day and left first . ***** 15 Back at the Everton family , Narissa was pondering how to safely deliver the Blood Ruby out of Sinney , which was under Bastien's control . " Stop right there ! " Suddenly , a sharp shout snapped her out of her thoughts . Frowning in annoyance , she looked up , ready to see who dared to block her way . Right in front of her stood Dario , stern - faced , with a few people guarding the entrance of the villa , clearly here to confront her . " You're back so late . Where have you been ? " Before she could speak , Dario demanded in a dark tone . " I- " Narissa was about to brush it off with some excuse when the old man cut her off with a roar . " Eight o'clock ! " Don't you know the Everton family curfew is at 8 PM ? " A proper young lady wandering outside after 8 ? What , planning to stay out all night ? No manners at all - once you're out , you forget to come home ! " The Everton couple stood nearby , heads bowed , not daring to speak . The Everton family did have a curfew - rules were rules . As long as Dario was home , everyone had to be back by 8 PM . Amanda had explained this to Narissa on the flight back home . Just then , Cressida , dressed in expensive pajamas , decided to stir the pot . " Narissa , were you out fooling around with guys again ? " Worried the old man would scold Narissa , Amanda quickly took the blame . " Dad , don't be angry . It is our fault . " We never got around to telling Narissa about the curfew . " She won't do it again . " Narissa , promise grandpa you'll be back by 8 in the future ." But Narissa just scoffed , " Curfew in this day and age ? How outdated ! " 3/4 Tue , Aug 19
