Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 928:

Her principles hadn’t changed much from when she was younger. If she couldn’t have something, she would willingly let it go. Someone else might get what she wanted.

But she would simply have to make peace with the fact that she never would. Heaving a long sigh, she decided to head over to the racetrack.

When she got there, she immediately changed into her gear, jumped into her designated car, and sped off.

She tore down the track, her heart pounding with excitement. The wind roared through the open windows, the world blurring at the edges as Yvonne and her car became one. Yvonne pushed the speed to its limit, her eyes fixed on the finish line. She breezed past it without any problem.

Again and again, she raced down the track and crossed the finish line. When she finally had enough, she slowed the vehicle and pulled over at a pit stop.

She got out of the car, the wind playing with her hair as she looked up at the clear blue sky. Her delicate face broke into a radiant smile.

With renewed spirits, she headed to the locker room to change, unaware that a pair of eyes were locked on her from a distance.

A man had just emerged from his car as well, and he stared at Yvonne until she disappeared into the lockers.noveldrama

Ethan Marsh stood in a black racing suit that was tailored to accentuate his tall, lean figure. His deep-set eyes gleamed with interest as he tore them away from the direction Yvonne had left in.

“Who was that woman just now?” he asked the staff member attending to him, his tone gentle.

“Sorry, sir, but we are not allowed to share our clients’ details,” the other man replied matter-of-factly, but it did little to discourage Ethan’s curiosity.

Yvonne was oblivious to all of this. Once she was all washed up and changed, she was ready to give her resume a proper makeover. It was badly needed, since landing a job without any prior experience was a veritable challenge.

Leif was still someone she could trust. If she couldn’t count on Norton, then so be it. She was willing to build her own career from the ground up. She had to be able to support herself when the divorce eventually happened.

It was just a matter of time. Norton wouldn’t dare to do anything reckless for now, but one day, when his grandpa was no longer here…

Yvonne dismissed the thought. There was no point in dwelling on things that only made her anxious.

She returned home, organized her personal documents, made a list of magazines she wanted to apply to, and sent them all to Leif.

She was just about to close her computer when the housekeeper knocked on her bedroom door to say that dinner was ready.

Yvonne followed the housekeeper, surprised to find Norton already seated at the dining table. His eyes were deep, distant.

Yvonne gave him one quick glance before proceeding to ignore him. She took her seat, picked up her fork, and began eating. She was famished after the day’s activities.
