Chapter 32: Racing in the night

Today was a rare day where Regina didn't have a schedule, she was about to stay home for a good night's sleep when Darryl suddenly told her that they would need to go out tonight.

The place Darryl took Regina to a car racing area at the foot of Mount Anya, one of the mountains known as the most dangerous. This mountain is located on the western outskirts of the city, it is a place where people who are interested in adventure games are crowded, and car racing is one of them.

This was Regina's first time attending such an event, because she had never been too excited about competitive and adventurous games.

According to what Regina heard people talking, this adventurous car racing event is held annually, every three months, mafia bosses are very interested in participating. This event is only for the mafia organizations to join together, and of course the appearance of ordinary people like Regina is very rare.

"Darryl, are the mafia bosses willing to put aside their grudges just to join the fun of racing cars with each other?" Regina felt quite surprised.

"Of course not. This looks like a regular racing event, but it's actually a bet between us." Darryl answered slowly.

The reason that this car race is said to be so cruel is because it has no rules at all. To win, the racers can use any tricks, even killing their opponents. Hearing that, Regina's face paled from fear.

"I don't want to be here, I want to go home."

"How can you get out of here?" Darryl grabbed Regina's chin lightly. "You're my wife, aren't you by my side, you're going to hide?"

At Darryl Rider's reminder, Regina knew she couldn't convince him this time. The referee is the person who organizes the bets for this car racing event, his face shows that he is not a nice person. His eyes were like that of a cunning and cunning wolf.

"Gentlemen, I have received the list of participating racers. Sullivan of the Harding mafia, Horrey of the Damian mafia..." The referee named the racers one by one.

With the exception of Darryl Rider participating in this adventurous car race himself, the other mafia gangs only send their subordinates. Of course, no mafia boss dares to bet their lives on this game. Even so, they will still send the most talented subordinates of the mafia to participate for honor and prestige.

While waiting for the race cars to be ready, Regina overheard the conversation of some hot and beautiful girls. They are models, social media hot girls or celebrities. A few of them are mistress of old tycoons, the rest are invited by the car race organizers. Of course, any race needs spectators and beauties to cheer.

"Over the past three years, a total of more than 12 races, and yet Darryl Rider won 10 times. He is really cool and overdone." A tall and thin model girl lit a cigarette, took a puff, and spoke.

"Yes. If I could be his lover, I would proudly show it off to everyone. By the way, I heard that he brought his wife here today, I guess he wants her to come with him?" asked the blushing girl standing next to her while applying chalk.

"Haha, that up-and-coming singer? She's never been in a car and experienced the thrill of racing, can she bear it? Maybe she'll cry."

Regina was a little annoyed hearing them talk about her, but at the same time she couldn't deny that she was worried. According to what the referee popularized, there were three racing laps, the distances of each lap were 300, 500 and 800 kilometers respectively. The special thing is that the riders will not race alone, they will choose one of the beautiful women here to sit next to them.

At this moment, after all the safety preparations were complete, Darryl approached Regina.

"Let's get in the car."

"Wait... I'm scared, I don't want to join, please." Regina trembled as she grabbed Darryl's bodice, tears welling up in her eyes.

Seeing her look of shock and panic, Darryl pursed her lips and furrowed her brows in thought for a moment.

"First lap, you can sit here watching through the big screen and prepare mentally, two laps later, I want you to sit next to me."

"But..."

"That's the biggest concession, Regina. Would you like to see your husband sitting with another woman and racing a car?"

Regina knew she couldn't convince Darryl any longer, so she nodded in agreement.

In the first lap, Darryl and a pretty hot model sat in the car. The model was only wearing lingerie, wriggling to sit close to Darryl, but was scared by his murderous eyes, so she had to sit still.

"Hey, Darryl? So you have a hobby of cheating on your wife. That model is also hot, I've played with her before, if you need experience, tell me."

Sullivan's car was parked right next to Darryl's race car. Some time ago, with Darryl's brutality and madness, he caused Harding's mafia gang to be in chaos. It was that fat old man Harding who died, and his son Sullivan took over the reins of his father's mafia. But compared to his father's shrewdness, Sullivan seemed much more bossy and haughty. Although the Harding mafia is no longer as powerful as it once was, Sullivan doesn't seem to mind anyone.

Darryl glanced at Sullivan but didn't respond.

"Win 2 out of 3 and you win the car race. Ready... 3...2...1... Start!"

After a signal from the referee, the engines of the racing cars roared and sped away like flying. Regina looked up at the big screen, her heart pounding in her chest even though she hadn't sat on it yet.

Darryl's car is red like fire, it looks like a majestic and reckless phoenix, launching ice on the track. The dangerous mountain road bends were done with ease and neatness by Darryl. The way he drove looked dangerous, but in fact Darryl was completely calm, not wavering at all.

Many times Sullivan deliberately accelerated to pass but failed, even many times he was stopped by Darryl and forced to slow down.

Not surprisingly, on the first lap, Darryl easily got the win and took advantage of the other drivers. Seeing Darryl calmly get out of the car and light a cigarette, Regina breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't be complacent, it's only the first round, next round you taste failure." Sullivan hugged his beautiful woman's waist, boasted and then left.

Surprise happened in the second round when Sullivan was faster than Darryl and chose Regina to be the beauty sitting next to him in the second round car race. This was something that Darryl completely didn't anticipate. When he saw Regina's bewildered and worried expression as he got into Sullivan's car, his eyes seemed to have turned cold to the extreme.
