CHAPTER 157

The people from Barnsford roared with laughter following Hedd’s comment. “Everyone in Sandfort is

trash.”“I guess not more than three people here can defeat Young Master Hedd.”“That Toby is such an

embarrassment.”Chuckling softly at their remarks, Mason said with a faint smile on his face, “Should I

race you instead?”His words almost sent Toby down on his knees. “Young Master Mason, please don’t

do this. How can I trouble you over this?”Grabbing Mason’s arm, Henry tried to hold him back, saying,

“Don’t act recklessly, Young Master Mason.”Despite knowing that Mason’s skills surpassed Hedd’s by

heaps, there was no guarantee that he wouldn’t be hurt on the track. If an accident happened, then

who would take care of the giant businesses of the Lowrys?Tightening his fists, Toby stared at Hedd

and said through gritted teeth, “Give us a week and if I lose to you again in a week, I’ll apologize to you

for a year.”“Pfft!” Hedd couldn’t stifle his laugh and sneered, “You? Even if I give you a year, there’s no

way that you can surpass me!”Toby snorted as well, “Do you think you’re great? In the eyes of Night

Shadow and Dark Shadow, you’re nothing.”Although she was standing a little far off, Janet was

stunned when she heard her own pseudonym being mentioned. However, she had no idea who Dark

Shadow was. Previously, Dark Shadow had been popular for quite a while, and then he suddenly

retired just like her.It wasn’t like Hedd had never heard of these names. Back then, Night Shadow and

Dark Shadow were big names in the car racing scene. Their identities were very mysterious and less

than a handful of people knew who they really were. They might even be just the imagination of the

people in the car racing scene.Therefore, Hedd didn’t hold these two people in regard at all and

snorted, “Night Shadow and Dark Shadow are merely cowards and they haven’t participated in any

race for years. Don’t you think it’s possible that they’ve already died on the race track?”Everyone else

sided with him and exclaimed, “Yeah, what’s so great about cowards? Young Master Hedd is the

greatest!” “The cowards might even soil their pants when they hear our young master’s name.”“Maybe

these two cowards are still underage.”Joining their laughter, Hedd spoke to Toby in disdain, “As your

Lord, I’m giving you one week to prepare. If you can get the cowards you mentioned to have a race

with me, then you can be the Lord. But if you lose to me again, or both of the cowards didn’t show up,

then you’ll have to address me as ‘Lord’ for a whole year.”“Call him ‘Lord’, you piece of trash!”As Hedd

and his group walked away and their voices grew faint, Toby fixed his glare on them and swallowed his

grievances in silence.With a fearsome look in his eyes, Henry punched his fist against the wall. “I can

easily make this rascal disappear with some tricks.”Mason patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t act

rashly in the heat of the moment. It’s not worth it to send someone from the Mason Vault to take care of

a person like this.”Next to them, Toby, who had his girlfriend snatched from him and also lost the race,

crouched close to the ground and held his face as he cried, “It’s all my fault. I’m the one who

embarrassed Sandfort. What should we do now? We’ll become the public enemy in the car racing

circle a week later.”“Hedd is really too much. Poor Toby, his girlfriend even left with another man.”On Content © 2024.

her tiptoes, Janet peeked inside and shook her head helplessly when she heard their conversation. Too

young and too rash.The next day in the Lowry Family Conglomerate office, Henry made a call to his

assistant with a distressed look and said in a solemn tone, “Find Dark Shadow and Night Shadow from

the car racing field and it’s fine even if you can only find one of them. I’ll discuss the racing fee for them

personally.”“Yes, Young Master Henry.”Mason, who had his head buried in a document, suddenly lifted

his head and chuckled softly. “Are you worried?” “Of course I am! The people from Barnsford are

already riding on our heads. If that rascal knew he had offended the famous Young Master Mason, I

wonder how he’ll react,” Henry said exaggeratedly.
