Chapter 771 Betting with Her Life

Annabelle's mind raced as she quickly calculated her options. She needed to think fast and find a way out of this dangerous situation. She took a deep breath to steady herself and then spoke firmly, "If you hurt me today, you'll be in prison by tomorrow. And guess what? You'll end up just like your brother, with your balls smashed. Kendrick won't spare a single one of you.

Chapter 772 Anna in Danger

Annabelle had been waiting for the perfect moment, and it finally arrived in the second half of the race. The car ahead of her, a powerful GT-R, mishandled a sharp curve. The driver, overconfident in his vehicle's speed, was forced to slam on the brakes to avoid careening off the mountain. Annabelle knew this curve intimately; she had driven it countless times and knew every nuance of the road.Timing her move perfectly, Annabelle slammed on the brakes, twisted the steering wheel sharply, and executed a flawless drift around the bend. Her car, a sturdy but unassuming sedan, handled the maneuver with surprising agility. As she completed the drift, she overtook the GT-R, leaving its driver in her dust.She exhaled in relief, patting the steering wheel as though thanking her trusty little sedan for holding up under such intense pressure. Such a drift was taxing on any car, especially one not designed for racing. Yet her car’s tires held firm, and it remained intact, a testament to its du
