Chapter 1742 As if You Could
Wynter turned her gaze toward the source of the voice. The speaker was none other than Buck, the third-place racer featured on the poster earlier. He looked decent enough, but nothing decent ever came out of his mouth. His words were laced with disdain for Blake.
Back when Buck was still a part of Blake's club, he earned a steady salary while secretly
participating in rigged races as a side job. Blake, someone intolerant of deceit, didn't publicize the scandal but swiftly kicked Buck out of the club.
Instead of feeling any gratitude, the ungrateful Buck was now here, ridiculing Blake in his time of need.
Marcelo Woodward, visibly furious, shot back, "Buck, you know very well what you did. The boss spared your future and reputation by not exposing you, but that doesn't mean no one knows the truth!"

Buck's face darkened at Marcelo's words, and he snapped, "You're really choosing to do things the hard way, huh? Do you really think Blake i some saint? He killed Ross just to win. He-"
