There's No Turning Back Chapter 234
"There's a saying that goes, you can't polish a turd, and it couldn't be truer for Niamh!"Her driving is embarrassingly amateurish! We gave her a top-tier modified race car, and she hasn't even floored the accelerator!" one engineer scoffed."I'm packing my bags and heading home. I refuse to stay and witness this humiliation!"On the track, the gap between Niamh and the other racers widened with every passing second. She kept waiting for someone ahead to make a mistake, but every single driver was pushing full throttle.No one showed any signs of slowing down. Panic crept into her eyes—if none of them faltered, she would finish dead last.Her expression darkened. There was no way she would allow that to happen. However, she still had a trick up her sleeve.Meanwhile, Beau stood by the glass window in the VIP lounge, clutching a model of Corona's race car. He jumped up and down excitedly, chanting, "Go, Luna! Go, Luna!"Ethel, who was seated comfortably in her chair, watched the

Niamh noticed Corona's hood lifting and curled her lips in satisfaction. Now, Corona would have to slow down; otherwise, it would end in a catastrophic crash.The mechanics waved their flags, signaling for Elara to enter the pit. In a racing competition, the fastest lap time determined the winner. As long as Corona's hood was adjusted in time, Luna still had a chance to secure the best result.However, Corona sped past the pit entrance without the slightest intention of stopping."She's not coming in for repairs!""With the car like that, how is she supposed to keep racing?"Even the mechanics were gaping in shock, eyes fixed on the still-speeding Corona with its hood flapping dangerously."Holy shit!"The young elites of the capital, who had been lounging with their legs crossed, all sat up straight.Some grabbed their binoculars and focused on the giant screen. Among them sat Benjamin, his eyes widening in disbelief. Seeing that Corona had no intention of slowing down, Benjam

In the grandstands, Benjamin was on the phone with Abel. "Hey, Dad, Niamh lost. Yeah, dead last, with a massive gap between her and the second-to-last finisher."As he said this, Benjamin couldn't help but burst into laughter. On the other end of the call, Abel's voice erupted in frustration."She must have glue for brains! Her head is full of mush! I told her not to go up there and embarrass herself; now look what happened! The entire Capitol knows she's a lost cause!"Abel pressed a hand to his forehead in exasperation on the other line. "The Jones family's reputation is in shambles because of her!"Meanwhile, the voices of other wealthy young men rang out in excitement."Holy shit! Is Luna actually revealing her face?""No way! The mysterious Luna is finally taking off her mask!"The elite spectators all jumped to their feet. Some raised their binoculars, locking onto Luna as she stood on the track, while others pulled out their phones, zooming in as much as possible.Benjam

"Why… Why is my pretentious mom actually Luna? Ahhh!"Beau's little face turned bright red as he threw his head back with his mouth wide open and wailed uncontrollably.…"Gosh…"In another VIP suite, Rupert, who was already kneeling on the floor, felt his body go limp the moment he saw Corona safely cross the finish line. It was as if his spine had been ripped out, leaving his upper body to collapse like a pile of noodles.Only then did he muster the courage to turn his head and look at the man standing behind him—the one who held his life in his hands.Theodore's gaze was currently locked onto the giant screen. In his eyes, there was only Elara.His hand, as meticulously crafted as a sculptor's masterpiece, rested against the glass. The veins on the back of his hand faintly surfaced, resembling the delicate patterns hidden within rare crystals.His long fingers traced the surface of the glass, gliding back and forth. From Theodore's angle, it almost seemed as though he was ge

A bright smile spread across Elara's face."Today, I returned to the track driving Corona. I revealed my identity because I want to show everyone that even as a mother, I can still shine on the racetrack."As long as you press the accelerator, face every challenge without fear, and move forward, it's never too late!"Niamh placed one hand on her hip, her mouth hanging open as she blinked in disbelief. "How could you possibly be Luna?"This had to be a joke! Was Elara seriously trying to impersonate Luna?"She is Luna!"A deep male voice suddenly rang out. Niamh turned toward the source and saw that it was Harvey who had spoken. She was stunned, all while panic creeping over her."Harvey, have you been fooled by her too..."Harvey clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged. For the past few minutes, even after the race had ended, he had remained in a state of utter disbelief.Wave after wave of shock crashed over him, leaving him completely unprepared, di

"Isn't it normal for kids to admire strength?" Niamh spoke up in Beau's defense."What's wrong with him wanting a stronger, more capable mother?"Elara shot her a look of pure disdain. "With a brain smaller than a sunflower seed, you think you're worthy of speaking to me?""Why, you little…"Niamh clenched her fists, fuming, but she had to maintain her image and couldn't curse out loud with so many people watching.She turned to Harvey, silently pleading for his support. Meanwhile, Harvey's expression was heavy. His chest was tight with emotions he couldn't find a way to release.The sun burned fiercely overhead, yet the air that filled his lungs felt like icy blades slicing through his nasal passages.His voice was cold, like the surface of a frozen lake as he said, "Your reason for revealing your true identity in front of all these people, wasn't it just to make us see you differently?"Elara let out a sharp, chilly laugh. "I don't even like you anymore. Can you stop flatteri

There had been countless times when he fell, and Elara would always rush over to pick him up without hesitation. Now, as Beau turned and was expecting to see her, his crying came to an abrupt stop when he realized the person behind him was Niamh.Niamh wiped the tears from his face. "Beau, don't be sad. I'll take you for a ride on my bike. We don't need to care about those people!"Beau sniffled and nodded. "Niamh, you treat me the best."Niamh grinned. "Of course! I'm your second dad! If I don't treat you well, who will? Let's go!"She took Beau's hand and led him to the parking lot, where she placed a helmet on his head before starting her motorcycle. The powerful machine, like a steel beast, roared to life.Just as they were about to exit the parking lot, a group of police officers appeared, heading straight for Niamh. Recognizing her by her racing suit, one of them immediately pulled out his badge."Niamh Jones! Stop the vehicle!"However, Niamh slammed the throttle down to

Harvey didn't look at Theodore. Instead, his proud gaze fell directly on Elara. "I'll cover Corona's repair costs."To him, anything that could be solved with money wasn't a real problem.Elara looked at him and asked, "She's taken a five-year-old child on a heavy motorcycle multiple times. Have you never been concerned about that?"The man frowned. "And in what capacity are you questioning me about my son?"Elara let out a cold laugh.Harvey continued, "Beau ran off after you scolded him, and the only one who went after him to comfort him was Niamh. I trust her driving skills."His tone grew even more indifferent as he added, "But as for you, whenever something happens, you have to escalate it to the highest level."You'd call the police and make it seem like the whole world owes you something. Is that the only way you'll feel joy?"Just as Elara was about to respond, a sudden wave of dizziness hit her like an invisible force crashing into her body. Her limbs tensed into spasm

Rosalie's face twisted with fury. "I did no such thing! What apology letter? There was never any such arrangement!"Merida Jones! You've gone too far!" She glared in Elara's direction, stepping forward as if to confront her.Just then, Xavier pulled out his phone, opened an app, and tapped a button.Suddenly, the control screen at the event console switched to a music player interface, and a rousing march blared through the speakers. The children in the audience instinctively began clapping along to the rhythm.The entire auditorium erupted in lively energy as an AI voice announced through the sound system, "Let's give a warm welcome to Rosalie Fisher! Ms. Fisher, please come up to the stage!"Elara burst into laughter and gently ruffled Xavier's hair."Xav, good job!"Now, with all eyes on her, Rosalie had no choice—if she refused to apologize, there would be no graceful way out.Praise from Elara made Xavier turn to her, his bright eyes shimmering like a sky full of stars.

The host was clearly more interested in Finnegan and asked, "So, Uncle Finn, have you considered finding a girlfriend?"Finnegan frowned slightly. He didn't want to remain the center of attention and gossip. His gaze swept past the audience and landed precisely on Elara. He saw her lips curve into a warm smile, as if she took pride in his popularity. "Yes, I have."Finnegan answered stiffly, his expression serious, as if delivering a formal report.The mothers in the audience immediately grew excited, many already mentally scanning through eligible unmarried women they knew, eager to introduce them to Finnegan.A flicker of surprise passed through Elara's eyes. Finnegan actually wanted a girlfriend? That was truly unexpected.The next second, Lesley tightly wrapped an arm around Elara's while her gaze toward Finnegan was full of wariness."What's wrong?" Elara asked, somewhat puzzled."I'm protecting our little moon!"Elara chuckled, assuming Lesley had noticed the eager in

"What kind of nonsense are you spouting?" Rosalie asked. She then shoved Harold's shoulder, displeased.She then added unhappily, "How can you side with outsiders instead of rooting for your daughter?"Harold pursed his lips and quickly changed his tune to appease Rosalie. "Paisley could probably win first place. Besides the judges' scores, there's also the audience votes. Paisley's performance had the most people present watching." Rosalie raised her chin proudly. "Paisley will definitely win first place!"She had already spoken to several parents in advance. From what she knew, more than half of the parents had already voted for Paisley.Elara looked down. She then took a pen and placed a check mark next to the title of Merida's performance. Xavier did the same and gave Elara a thumbs-up.Elara smiled in response.Seated behind them, Beau could clearly see the interaction between Elara and Xavier. His expression darkened with resentment.Harvey's voice could be heard. "Why a

Beau was teary-eyed as he shrank back, showing a timid expression."The final performance of this year's gala is a tap dance piece, Spring Awakens, performed by a student from the preschool division's Class 1B—Merida Jones."Elara heard the announcer introduce Merida's performance. She and Xavier immediately sat up straight. The crimson curtain was drawn open, revealing Finnegan as the first to step into the audience's view. He was too eye-catching. Tall and broad-shouldered, he wore black trousers and a black vest, which was left unbuttoned, exposing his tanned chest. The stage lights spilled over his muscles, contouring them.The parents who had been sleepily sitting in the auditorium inadvertently glanced at the stage. Their gazes were fixed in place. They all gasped.Finnegan struck the drum. The audience's eyes were fixed on the lines of Finnegan's arms and pectoral muscles.Many audience members pulled out their phones to record the scene of Finnegan drumming."Wow! Whose

Harvey knitted his brows together tightly. "Beau is your son. How can you be so cold-blooded that you won't even hold him?"Elara retorted, "Do you still remember how you responded when I told you that Beau didn't want to be close to me?"Harvey froze in place. There was a hint of confusion in his eyes.A cold, faint chuckle escaped Elara's throat. It seemed he had long forgotten. The ever-busy president of Fisher Corp had never truly regarded his own family as something that mattered."You said that a son shouldn't rely on his mother, especially since Beau is the heir of Fisher Corp. Instead, I should restrain my emotions and make myself his teacher, not his mother! "I once told you that Ethel always spoke ill of me in front of our son. You said it was the truth, so it wasn't bad-mouthing. You said your mother wasn't wrong, that I was just a country girl with knowledge. "You also said I was extremely lucky to have married into the Fisher family. Otherwise, even if your family

A small whirlwind swept past Lesley as Theodore went ahead and dashed forward. A vein bulged on Harvey's temple upon seeing Theodore suddenly pull six and a half feet before them. Just as he wanted to yell at her, Lesley yelled, "Elara!"She raised her arm high and waved at Elara.Elara looked up at her, her bright eyes curving as she smiled. When Theodore noticed that Elara only had eyes for Lesley, his steps faltered.At that moment, Lesley overtook him, jogging toward Elara. She yelled, "Make way! Everyone make way!"Harvey suddenly appeared with a wheelchair. On it sat Beau. He used the wheelchair to block Theodore's path and even tried to ram into Lesley with it.Theodore stood in the aisle, blocking Harvey's way."This aisle is too small. How could you possibly push a wheelchair through? Take your son and sit at the side."Harvey's face darkened. "Sit at the side? My son won't be able to see the stage! I want to sit with him in the center!"With that, Harvey picked

Paisley stood at the center of the stage and bowed, thanking the audience. Meanwhile, the auditorium erupted in thunderous applause. Several parents who knew Rosalie turned to praise her."Ms. Fisher, you've done such a wonderful job raising her.""Paisley's dancing was beautiful. With her on stage, the whole performance became so pleasing to watch."Parents from the same class chimed in as well. "Rosalie made the right call by having Merida step down from the rehearsals. If Merida had performed, it definitely wouldn't have turned out this well.""Exactly. Rosalie really has great foresight."As they spoke, their glances drifted—intentionally or not—toward Elara.In the microcosm of the school community, parents were sorted by social circles. Even if they acknowledged Elara's competence, to them, she still had no real backing.And without that, she might as well have had nothing. In the world of elite parents at one of Capitol's top schools, Elara stood on shaky ground. Those ho

Rosalie let out a disdainful snort. "Does someone like Elara even deserve to step into the Fisher family's circle?"Her voice turned icy and shrill. "She's only dragging me down!"Luxury brands existed precisely to distinguish those who could afford them from those who couldn't. If commoners could easily buy Louis Vuitton or Hermès, how would the wealthy flaunt their status?Ever since Elara married into the Fisher family, Rosalie felt her own standing had been diminished. Now that Elara had been kicked out, Rosalie wouldn't give her another chance to mingle with high society.Harold lowered his voice. "Put in a good word for me with the Fisher family. Help me become Xavier's tutor."Though Beau had resumed his elite homeschooling, Xavier still attended the same classes—and far outperformed him. Harold had a strong premonition that the Fisher family would focus on cultivating Xavier.Though not Leonard's biological son, Xavier was his sole heir since Leonard had no children of hi

Rosalie took her seat beside Harold and immediately noticed him repeatedly glancing in Elara's direction."What are you looking at?" Her voice turned dangerous.Harold instantly trembled, quickly straightening his posture. "Nothing! I wasn't looking at anything!"Rosalie wouldn't let it go. "You kept staring at Elara! Why were you looking at her?"Flames burned in Rosalie's eyes as Harold hurriedly explained, "I just saw Xavier sitting in her lap and got curious! I never expected that child to be so close with her."He then gossiped with Rosalie, "Do you think if Elara dotes on Xavier like this, she might end up becoming Harvey's aunt?"A mischievous smirk spread across Harold's face."Only vulgar minds would come up with such vulgar thoughts!" Rosalie snapped.As a Fisher family member, her first reaction was utter disgust at such disgraceful speculation. How could she ever hold her head high in Capitol's elite circles if this happened?"How could Leonard possibly do such a t
