His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 724

“Let's call off the race. This weather is insane; someone could get killed.”

“Yeah, seriously!”

Before Niamh could say anything, Ramona walked over, a man holding an umbrella for her at her side. Niamh froze for a second when she saw who it was.

“Wade…” she greeted him.

“Ms. Rivers,” Wade acknowledged with a nod.

Niamh never thought that Wade, once Quinn’s chief counsel, would become something of a personal assistant to Ramona after the Quinn patriarch’s death.

“If you’re scared, don’t race. It’s better to just admit defeat,” Ramona taunted.

“What’s that supposed to mean? Don’t forget, you lost to Niamh before,” Preston shot back, making Ramona’s face darken.

But her expression quickly shifted back to a smile.

“You win some, you lose some… or is ‘The Speed Queen’ afraid to race me again after beating me just once?”

“You…” Preston started, but Niamh tugged on his sleeve.

“Preston, I know you’re worried about me, but I have to do this race.”

Niamh looked at Ramona, her calm eyes filled with a quiet, unshakeable confidence, a stark contrast to Ramona’s desperate need to win.

“Now that’s more like it.” Ramona stepped closer to Niamh, the determination in her eyes burning like a flame. “I’m going to beat you fair and square, right here on your home turf, and get my revenge for last time.”

Facing the murderous glare, Niamh just gave a sweet smile. “When you say ‘last time’… are you talking about when you lost to me on your own home track, or when you tried to break into the jewelry business and ended up losing your shirt?”

“You!” Ramona seethed, grinding her teeth. “Let’s see how long you can keep that smirk on your face.” With that vicious parting shot, she stalked back to her car.

Just then, an official from the street racing app approached Ramona, suggesting they shorten the planned route to a single curve followed by a straightaway. Otherwise, the authorities wouldn't approve the race in this weather. In the end, the rainy night street race wasn't canceled but was modified as required.

Niamh had no objections.
