Chapter 211

Author: Full of Luck
Theodore let out a scornful laugh. "Ha, I think I just heard the sound of someone's heart shattering."

His voice was sharp, arrogant, and laced with mockery. As he spoke, he turned to look at Finnegan, expecting to see his face darken with rage.

However, instead of fury, Finnegan stood there with his arms crossed. He was watching Elara and Lesley embrace with a look that held something almost... reassuring.

Theodore was baffled. Wait, was he the only fool here?

So, that shattered heart on the ground—it was his?

Ha. It was no wonder they called Finnegan a model soldier. Even if the world crumbled around him, he remained unshaken.

But in reality? Theodore was pretty damn sure Finnegan was holding himself back with everything he had. If it weren't for Elara, he'd probably have rushed forward and punched that rascal Lesley twice already.

Theodore took a deep breath. He needed to learn a thing or two from Lt. Lloyd. If he wanted to be the perfect homewrecker, he had to build up some

    Lesley met Theodore's dagger-like gaze, and her heart trembled a few times. Who was this guy? He looked a little familiar.She had just gotten off the plane—why did it feel like she had already run into an enemy? Meanwhile, Merida effortlessly pushed the luggage cart, racing across the smooth tile floor.Startled by Theodore's stare, Lesley instinctively hid behind Elara. She had always been shy around strangers, disliked physical contact, and was particularly uncomfortable under the scrutiny of men.After cutting her hair short and adopting a more androgynous style, she had rarely drawn the attention of the opposite sex. Even when people did look at her, it was usually because of her striking features, and their gazes were more admiring than intrusive.Finnegan greeted her with a nod and said in an indifferent tone, "Long time no see."Lesley nodded back, considering that enough of a greeting. To her, Elara's older brother wasn't particularly memorable—aside from being absurdly t

    Theodore felt a chill spread through his entire body, his hands and feet turning cold as blood rushed to his head.Was the world really this unfair?Elara's bed was big enough, so why couldn't it fit a third person? His throat tightened, and his Adam's apple bobbed painfully.Elara noticed that Theodore's eyes were red. "Mr. Snapp, what's wrong?"The man shook his head, his voice damp with emotion. "Nothing... As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."A series of question marks popped up over Elara's head.Lesley's arms tightened around Elara's waist, and she rested her chin on Elara's shoulder, whispering, "He's acting really weird!"Theodore's fists clenched tightly. He had never suffered such humiliation before!That little lap dog was taking full advantage of Elara's affection, and he was twisting the knife deeper at every opportunity!Just as Theodore was about to snap back, Elara gently cupped Lesley's face and said affectionately, "Let's go home first. You just

    Before Cyrus could finish speaking, Lesley interrupted, "I hate Fisher Corp. None of my companies will ever work with them!"Cyrus frowned in confusion. "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about Fisher Corp?"He glanced at Elara and suddenly seemed to realize something. Turning back to Lesley, he asked, "Did Ms. Jones say something to you? Something bad about us?"Mr. Lupone, please don't misunderstand. Ms. Jones knows nothing about Fisher Corp, and she has a terrible relationship with my boss. Mr. Fisher has always hoped to hire you with a generous offer to coach Ms. Niamh in racing. Please reconsider...""Not interested." Lesley's expression grew wary as she watched Cyrus. She pressed closer to Elara, resting her chin on Elara's shoulder. "I only serve Luna.""Lesley, why would you turn down such easy money?" A middle-aged man approached. It was Vincent Frazier, one of Moonchaser Racing Club's engineers.Lesley's face darkened. "Harvey Fisher expects you all to train a n

    "Luna is also participating in the exhibition race?" This was Cyrus' first time hearing this.He looked at Elara with suspicion. "How do you know that?"But he quickly figured it out on his own. It had to be Lesley who told her.Given how close Elara and Lesley were, even if Elara only had a surface-level understanding of racing, she would still hear news about Luna from Lesley.Vincent's fighting spirit ignited the moment he learned Luna would be in the race."Luna's making a comeback?" He immediately relayed the news to his colleagues."I'll make sure she realizes that her success was all because of us! Without our support, Luna is nothing!"He turned to Lesley in an agitated manner. "Unless Luna can get Moonchaser Racing Club's big boss to back her up and form a stronger team than ours, she won't stand a chance of getting a good result in this race."Another engineer chimed in, "There's no team in the world stronger than ours right now! We're going to use an amateur driver t

    Harvey had thought Luna was deliberately toying with him. He had seen plenty of women play this kind of hard-to-get game.But even after he put up the race cars Luna supposedly wanted for auction, she never showed up. That made him wonder—was the race at Mount Clockwork just a high-speed fantasy he had conjured up?And now, Luna was about to reappear. Harvey sent a voice message to Cyrus, "Keep a close eye on Luna the moment she shows up at the International Racing Championship!"A powerful urge surged inside him—he had to remove Luna's helmet. He had to see her real face.…The sleek black Corona hugged the road, speeding along effortlessly. Lesley sat in the passenger seat, turning to look at Elara behind the wheel as her face glowed with happiness.It felt as if they had traveled back in time to five years ago, or maybe even further.Despite their five-year separation, there wasn't even a hint of awkwardness between them. The moment they reunited, it was as if they had never

    Lesley remained speechless in the face of Theodore's threat.That night, Elara prepared a full table of home-cooked dishes. When Lesley saw that they were all the foods she used to love, her eyes instantly grew warm with emotion.She sat beside Elara, eating her creamy garlic pork chops while savoring every bite as if she could swallow her own tongue.Lesley devoured her food like a starving tiger, taking huge mouthfuls. When she noticed Merida staring at her in awe, her face turned red with embarrassment."Sorry, Merida."Merida shook her head. "So, it's not just me who thinks Mommy's cooking is amazing! Lesley, eat as much as you want!"Back when Elara lived with the Fishers, Ethel had made her responsible for preparing meals for Harvey and the children. Yet every time she cooked, Harvey and Beau would nitpick and find faults.Beau had grown accustomed to Elara's cooking, but he always acted as if he were eating it begrudgingly."Beau, if you really don't want to eat it, then

    It was Elara who had pulled her up and brought her to Capitol. Compared to Elara, her own abilities seemed mediocre.During Lesley's first year in Capitol, it was Elara who supported her, using her own scholarship money to cover her expenses. When Elara was recruited into the Moonchaser Racing Club, she recommended Lesley to her agent as her navigator.Meanwhile, Vincent and the others had been hired as highly paid international engineers. In the beginning, Lesley had no way of communicating with them. It was Elara who always held her hand and helped her run forward.When they parted ways, Elara had poured most of her money into Lesley, sending her abroad for further studies."When I was 14, Mr. Leonard Fisher brought me to the Capitol. He dressed me in the finest clothes, gave me the most expensive imported stationery, provided me with a car, and let me live in a private apartment."He did all this not to spoil me, but to free me from unnecessary labor and pointless social intera

    Theodore paced back and forth by the sofa twice before dialing Finnegan's number."Hello?" Finnegan answered in an irritated tone, but before he could say anything more, Theodore's anxious voice shot through the receiver."My dearest brother-in-law, hurry up and take Merida away! Elara finally reunited with an old flame, so no one should disturb them! She has a big race next week, and I only care about her physical condition!"After whatever happens between her and Lesley tonight, she can't afford to fool around anymore!" As he said this, a sharp pain twisted in Theodore's chest.Meanwhile, on the other end of the line, Finnegan was in the middle of a workout at the gym. His deep blue quick-dry shirt had darkened with sweat, clinging to his broad chest and sculpted muscles. Beads of moisture dripped from his closely cropped hair, each strand standing on end like a porcupine's quills.Finnegan pressed his lips together, his breath steady but heavy. The damp fabric of his shirt outl

    Harvey lifted his gaze and double-checked the apartment number. It was correct. This was the place Elara rented with Merida.Standing in front of him was Lesley, dressed in gray plaid pajamas that leaned toward a more androgynous style. She had even thrown on a loose-fitting loungewear jacket over them.She had just been about to start her skincare routine, so her bangs were pushed up with a sports headband, making her look even more like a fresh-faced, youthful young man."Harvey Fisher!" Lesley's expression turned instantly cold.She had never formally met Harvey face-to-face. Five years ago, there had been a few times she spotted him from a distance, but that was it.However, she had done her research. The moment she found out about Elara's divorce, Harvey's photo became her personal dartboard.Harvey's sharp, oppressive gaze swept over Lesley's face. The suffocating pressure he exuded burst out like a wave, filling the narrow space. "Lesley Lupone, is it?"Like a monarch iss
