429 Is It Him?
“My god! It is the Night Angel of Ferrari!”
Platt was instantly dumbfounded, and cursed, “There are so many assholes competing with me for the necklace today.” Then he stepped on the accelerator.
However, something unexpected happened. The Night Angel behind had clearly caught up, but it did not overtake. Instead, it squeezed Platt’s car towards the side of the road and the friction between two vehicles made a huge noise.
“Oh! My car!”
“What is he doing? He’s provoking me!” Platt said frantically.
“We’re almost at the finishing line!” “Whatever, let’s cross the line!” Isabella said excitedly.
“Right! Fuck him!”
As Platt speeded up again to the finishing line, the Night Angel accelerated and pushed Platt’s orange car out of the track!
At the same time, the white Ferrari FXX successfully crossed the line and won the championship of the competition!
.....
Cheers went up immediately.
Platt got out of the car and stormed to the Night Angel, “Damn it, you asshole! It doesn’t matter you blocked my way, but how could you sideswipe my car on purpose. Are you showing off your Night Angel? Be careful! I will beat you up after the race.”
Taking off her helmet and safety belt, Isabella followed him out of the car. The white Ferrari next to him opened the door first. A young blond man in a hip-hop loose clothes walked out and beamed at Platt. “I haven’t been back for a few years. I didn’t expect Peace City to have so many talented people. Everyone got good skills, but why are you two so close to each other? Are you in love with each other?”
Platt rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the Night Angel. When he found the driver of the white Ferrari was not a familiar face, he was stunned and asked, “Are you new here?”
Then, Platt continued in disdain, “What the hell do you know? This guy hit my car. I won’t let it go at that! I will teach him a lesson!”
Isabella looked at the blond man in front of her and paused. She suddenly said in surprise, “You are the ... the doctor who saved the person in the cafe yesterday!”
The blond man looked at Isabella in confusion, “The doctor who saved the person?”
“Have you forgotten me? At the cafe downstairs the Globe Building yesterday, there was a murder! Don’t you remember?” Isabella patted her chest and introduced herself.
The blond man thought for a moment and suddenly dissolved into laughter. “I know. You must be saying my brother!”
“Your brother?”
Isabella was stunned. She looked the person up and down and found that he was different from the brave man yesterday in the way he talked and dressed though they were blond with the similar face. She then said, “Are you twins?”
“Yes, your guess is exactly right. He is my brother and he is a doctor.”
Before he could finish laughing, the door of the Night Angel opened. Cedric got off.
Platt immediately gone berserk and rushed forward, “Don’t you know the rules? You want me to beat you up, don’t you? Wait, you are the guy chasing Isabella, aren’t you?”
Platt pointed at Cedric’s hand, but Cedric grasped Platt’s hand all of a sudden. As he twisted his hand, Platt cried out in pain and knelt down beside the car, covering his hand.
“Platty...”
When Isabella saw Cedric following behind, she was so frightened that she turned around to flee. With long legs, Cedric caught up with her in several steps. He then pushed her against the car.
“You ... let go of me!”
With her back against the car, Isabella couldn’t get rid of him, surrounded by his arms, “What are you doing? Off me, or I will cry for help!”
“Isabella, I told you, you must be mine.”
Cedric’s eerie dark eyes were saying there wasn’t any room for refusal. He looked like a cruel stranger to Isabella, completely ignoring her threat, “Come back with me now. You belong to me again!”
“I won’t go back with you! Never!” Isabella screamed as she struggled. She bit Cedric’s hand. It was the second time she did it, but Cedric didn’t let her go this time. He was so angry that he pressed her against the car and sucked at her lips.
Isabella couldn’t speak.
She opened her mouth to bite Cedric’s lips, but Cedric found the opportunity to get into her mouth and bit her tongue as a punishment.
It really hurt.
Isabella was both in pain and anger. She knew that this time, she had really provoked Cedric. However, she could not break free of him at all. The drivers who came later, coupled with the people around the finishing line, did not know what’s going on. They cheered excitedly for they thought it was a romantic kiss. Suddenly someone held Cedric from the back and pulled him aside.
“Let go of Isabella! You asshole!”
Platt saw them and got up from the ground. Furious at that moment, he fought with Cedric. But, he was neither tall nor strong enough to rival Cedric. As a result he was thrown onto the ground and beaten black and blue.
“Mind your own business!”
Knocking Platt down, Cedric was about to catch Isabella again. Platt tried his best to hold Cedric’s leg and cried, “Isabella, run!”
“Platty...”
“I’m a man. I’ll handle this. Run!” After Platt finished speaking, he took a bite on Cedric’s leg.
Groaning in pain, Cedric turned back and punched Platt with his fist. Isabella did not dare to look at them anymore. She turned around to run.
“Come with me.”
The blond man in the white Ferrari was the one clear about what had happened. He pulled Isabella and stuffed her into his car. Then, he started the engine and drove away.
Half an hour later, they returned back to the city and stopped at the most crowded point in the city center.
“Are you alright? Did you get hurt just now?”
The blond man handed Isabella a tissue so that she could wipe her tears off. Although he looked closer to Platt, who was a young, wild boy, Isabella felt he was kind and reliable, maybe because he was the twin brother of the doctor she met yesterday. Therefore, Isabella answered politely, “No, I was just afraid that something would happen to my friend.”
“How did you provoke someone like Cedric?”
Isabella paused and said, “You know Cedric?”
“In Peace City, almost everyone knows him, if they are aware of the rules of this city.”
The blond man eyed Isabella up and down. “Cedric has many women, but I heard that he has always been a gentleman on the surface. Did you cheat on him? What did you do with the colored-hair guy?”
“No, it’s not what you think about.”
“I am not in a relationship with Cedric or him.”
“But Cedric kissed you in public just now. That colored-hair boy even fought to the death for you.” The blond man laughed, “You know, I can’t keep myself from thinking it a love triangle.”
“That’s because...”
Hearing his laughter, Isabella did not want to talk too much to this person who she had met only once, so she wiped her tears, “Anyway, thank you. You and your brother each saved my life.”
