Chapter 703
Spoiled by the President
True love would not fade over time, but age like fine wine.
The passage of time would only enhance its depth and finesse, and would not affect the quality of the wine.
She recalled that when she first married Gideon Leith, it was half-coercion and half-resignation that made her agree to it.
Back then, she did not imagine that the two of them could walk this far.
After being together with him for some time, she suddenly realized that it had been such a long time.
Her lips parted slightly as she gazed at him. Sincerely, she said, âMe too. Iâm always missing you, every minute, and every second of the day.â
This proclamation completely made him swoon.
Previously, there was already a subtle smile on his handsome face, but now, it deepened into an elated grin.
The corners of his lips parted and transformed his face into a huge smile.
âYouâre coming back in three days?â
âYup.â
âIâll pick you up from the airport.â
âOkay.â Nell paused, then reminded him gently, âDonât go too early. Just arrive at the scheduled time, and be careful on the road.â
Gideon nodded. The two of them continued the lovey-dovey conversation for a little longer until he arrived at the company. Then, they blew each other goodbye kisses.
By the time the video call was over, Nellâs food had already gone cold.
All Nell wanted was to look at him every hour and every second, how could she be bothered about food?
As a result, after chatting for half an hour, she had only taken a few bites of her food. Now, it was too cold to eat.
However, she did not like to waste food, so out of desperation, she had to send it back to the kitchen to be reheated.
After finishing dinner, both of them returned to their rooms.
Having practiced for the entire day, Nell was tired. After she was done showering, she scrolled on her phone for a little while and promptly fell asleep.
The next day was also another full day of practice.
The only difference was that, around dusk, she went out and settled the work matter that she went there to do.
Probably due to the rejection he experienced the day before, Bob did not try to befriend them again.
He simply helped them get organized and handed the keys to them accordingly. When his gaze landed on Nancy Murray, there was a tinge of frustration and yearning.
Nancy pretended not to see it.
Nell could not stifle a laugh.
After the practice, Nell felt that her condition was quite well-adjusted. Although it could not compare to her peak performance in the past, it should not be a problem for her to win this competition.
Therefore, when she and Nancy returned to the hotel that night, they rested well.
All there was left to do was to head to the competition arena in the afternoon the day after.
They got a good nightâs sleep and slept all the way to the next morning.
When Nell woke up, she and Nancy headed straight to the competition arena.
Flying was the largest, most highly-recognized, and most well-known annual event throughout the racing industry.
Those who participated in this competition were basically the top contenders in this circle.
For this exact reason, it was popular among car-racing audiences all over the world.
There were two categories in this competition.
The first was a team representative, while the second was an individual race.
Nell did not belong to any team, so she was an individual race participant.
When everyone first heard of her name, no one knew who she was.
After all, this name had never appeared in the racing arena, plus it sounded like a girl. Hence, they simply assumed that she was a newbie on the scene and did not pay her much attention.
It was not until she appeared in person, that the arena was shocked.
Wow! What an oriental beauty!
Nellâs previous identity as a celebrity was limited to the Chinese entertainment circle. Furthermore, she did not dabble in acting for a long time. She was only there for about a year and a half and appeared in less than two films.
Hence, her popularity was limited. The people here did not recognize her.
They only knew that this woman was very beautiful and stunning. Based on her aura, she did not seem like a newbie.
Back when she participated in races under the Seven pseudonym, she wore a mask upon Gregory Grahamâs request. Although there were many legends about her in the racing world, very few people had seen her real face.
For this reason, no one recognized Nell when she appeared on the scene.
Nancy Murray remained by her side as an assistant.
When it was time to get in the car, Nancy would need to follow her into the car.
Fortunately, Nancy had learned about car-racing before, and thanks to her solid foundation in martial arts, it was quite easy to master these things.
The competition was divided into three rounds. Everyone would race three times. Based on the knockout format, two semi-finalists would then face-
off in the finals.
In the first three rounds, Nell obviously won without question.
Everyone else only cinched two out of three wins. After all, most of the participants in this competition had similar skill levels.
Nell, on the other hand, had a clean sweep. She won all three rounds and crushed her opponent.
Consequently, her opponent emerged from his car with a dumbfounded expression after the race. He pondered if Nell was not actually a fellow competitor, but rather a monster.
Nell smiled back at him awkwardly, gesturing that it was sheer dumb luck. He was actually very skilled.
The opponent: â...â
His face turned stony.
Which idiot would believe that this was sheer dumb luck?!
Regardless, he did not have a choice. This was a competition, so a loss was a loss.
He had to accept defeat. Thus, Nell managed to earn a ticket to the finals.
The other person who proceeded to the finals with Nell was a man named Gepira.
He was an Indonesian. Nell saw him race earlier that day. It was very intense, but he was still a little less skilled than her.
Even so, Nancy could not help but feel a cold sweat in her heart.
The final was scheduled to commence at night so that the two participants could rest in between.
Nell led Nancy Murray into the lounge. Her brain was occupied with tonightâs performance. Suddenly, they heard a loud commotion from outside.
Nellâs brow twitched in surprise.
She sent Nancy out to check. Soon, Nancy came back in.
The expression on Nancyâs face was extremely complicated, as though words could not express her disbelief. Nell raised an eyebrow, gesturing to her to speak. Finally, Nancy uttered, âEven if I tell you, you might not believe it. Guess who did I see just now?â
Nell shook her head. âHow would I know who you saw?â
Nancy sighed. âI saw the participant name Gepira. He was arguing with the organizer, saying that he would not compete against a woman. He said that men and women cannot compete in the same competition and that this was an insult to competition rules.â
âAllegedly, as the nobler of the two sexes, he would not be too critical with women. Therefore, he wanted the organizers to find a solution, either to change competitors or to redo the competition.â
Nell was astonished but immediately broke into a laugh.
âChange competitors? Did he mention, who should be changed?â

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Nancy wore an expression which stated that Nell was asking the obvious.
âEven an idiot would know that he was talking about you.â
As she spoke, Nancy rubbed her temples with a headache.
âThis is already 2019, why is there still such a ridiculous misogynistic mindset? And how dare he refer to himself as the nobler of the two sexes, what bullshit!â
