Chapter: 1182
Sean's car was leading the pack. Only one car managed to keep up with him, sometimes even overtaking him.

Focused intensely, Sean hadn't expected to face such a formidable rival in what he thought would be a casual competition.

It took him back to his racing days with Norah. She had been as skilled as he was, maybe even more so.

Lost in that fleeting memory, he didn't notice when the dark purple car overtook him, seizing the lead.

"Sean, come on! You can win this! Overtake that car."

Sean remained silent, accelerating secretly, determined to reclaim his position. The track was entering its final stretch.

With a series of flawless maneuvers, the dark purple car crossed the finish Line first.

After the race, the driver didn't stop, disappearing into the distance.

Sean claimed second place, while Duncan trailed among the last.

Duncan didn't know much about racing and hadn't planned on winning; he just wanted to take Joanna for a spin around the track.

Joanna scanned the track, but the dark purple car was nowhere in sight.

“The winner was really good, stable throughout the race, and executed every move perfectly."

She had a deep understanding of racing techniques, thanks to Norah's teachings.

Sean nodded in agreement. "That driver's very skilled."

Had he not been distracted, he might have won. But the race was over, and dwelling on it was pointless.

Susanna realized she had developed a taste for thrilling sports, itching for more.

Phillip wrapped his arms around her, giving her a warning look.

"Behave."

He had watched the race live and felt a pang of familiarity with the driver of the dark purple car, though it seemed impossible for that person to be here.

After the exhilarating race, everyone was content and had no desire to do anything else.

They had come out to unwind. Since they had to attend the opening ceremony of the competition the next day, they went back to the hotel early.

Back at the hotel.

Sean took a cold shower and toweled off his wet hair.

Frank had already sent over the work Sean needed to handle during his stay. Sean sat down at his desk, logged into the hacker forum, and waited for a while. As he waited, he skimmed through a report.
