Chapter 102 CHAPTER 102: NEW SYSTEM FUNCTION
Davies's hand slowly ran across Tisha's hair as she held tightly onto him while he waited for the people who were walking toward him.
Three people walked to him as he stood in place, waiting patiently. The flaming redhead Fiona Lecroy, the Spanish organizer, Carlos was also walking along towards Davies while holding onto a bag that held the money that Davies had won from Lee Jung, and finally, a good-looking young adult who looked to be just about twenty years of age that Davies didn't recognize.
"You were fire bro!"
"With skills like that, it's a wonder I haven't seen you around here much amigo," Carlos said in his overly enthusiastic as soon as he got close enough for Davies to hear him, literally overflowing with friendly vibes.
"I just got back though. Haven't really been around for a while," Davies couldn't help replying to Carlos. He preferred dealing with people that didn't make him have to always keep his guard up and the chill, enthusiastic, and overly friendly Carlos ticked all the boxes on that list.
"Oh, so that's why," Carlos came to a realization from Davies's words.
"Well, I hope to see you around more homie," he continued with a friendly tone, stretching his hand forward for a fist bump which Davies accepted with a fist. They bumped fists and Carlos held up the bag and Davies's watch for him to take.
"Who's the cutie?" Carlos asked his eyes on Tisha who was holding onto Davies without caring about the presence of either the crowd or the three people who were in front of them.
"Oh, this is Tish, my-" he began to say as he collected his watch and the bag filled with cash from Carlos when he was interrupted by Fiona who finally spoke even though she had arrived at the same time as Carlos.
"Congratulations on winning the race, Davies," she said with a slightly over-familiar tone and a smile on her face, but Davies could see her lips constantly twitching as if she had difficulty maintaining her smile.historical
"... Uh, thanks, Miss Lecroy," Davies replied, slightly hesitating as he wondered what the deal was with her forced smile.
"It seems you were just playing with me while we raced on the way here," Fiona said with a sigh and a bitter smile. She thought that Davies had simply seen her as nothing more than an amateur driver and had simply let her run wild while he followed closely behind her only to take the lead and leave her behind when they had gotten to the racing scene.
She knew that with the way he drove while racing Lee Jung, he could obviously have left her in the dust, yet she didn't know his reason for not doing so, little did she know that the only reason why Davies didn't overtake her and leave her in the distance behind him was that he was actually following her and not racing her, but of course, Davies wouldn't tell anyone that lest they thought him to be a creep.
"Huh.. oh that," Davies realized what she was talking about in a split second, but didn't say a word and only smiled wryly.
Davies's wry smile made Fiona really feel like she was being looked down on as an amateur by Davies, but, what could she do about it?
Who told her not to be better at driving?
Moreover, she didn't dare to slip up and question him, even though she felt there was much more to it than that, especially as Davies hadn't said anything.
Since she was trying her best to be careful around him lest she displease him she couldn't say much regarding the situation, so her eyes fell back on Tisha who was hugging onto Davies's body and a frown threatened to break out on her face.
Fiona couldn't say she wasn't impressed by Davies, after all, he was handsome, rich, talented, powerful, and probably lots more. All in all, he represented everything that could pull a woman into his arms, and Fiona wasn't an expression.
While she hadn't gone as far as to fall for him completely, she was more than a little impressed by him, but before she could even blink her eyes, another woman was clinging onto his body like he was her personal property.
Fiona didn't know who this vixen was, but she didn't take lightly to someone touching things that she was even mildly interested in, so her original fiery personality constantly threatened to break out every second he spent looking at Tisha holding on to her personal property.
If Davies knew of her thoughts, he would definitely teach her a lesson by cooling off that fiery temper of hers and making it clear that he was not anybody's personal property, but unfortunately, he didn't know of her thoughts.. for now.
Davies saw Fiona's eyes fall on Tisha with a complicated look on her face and he wondered what it was all about, but before he could think further into it, he heard a ding sound followed by another system notification popping into the corner of his view.
[Successfully caused a heroine to have an interest in you]
[Check the relationship level tab to see the level of development of your relationship with heroines]
"Eh..?" Due to his surprise, he blurted out a surprised sound, totally forgetting about his environment.
"Eh," Carlos also was surprised at Davies suddenly having a sudden look on his face.
"Eh?" Fiona was now surprised and confused at Davies and Carlos reacting surprisedly and she also blurted out a surprised sound.
"What happened?" Fiona asked curiously.
"I don't even know," Carlos replied with a laugh while also looking at Davies curiously.
"Don't worry about it, I only saw something interesting," Davies said after seeing their curious looks. He didn't lie anyway, he had truly seen something interesting, only he was the only one who could see this interesting thing.. well, maybe not only him, as Miya could see it too, but she didn't count.
"What was it?" Fiona asked and quickly took a glance around out of curiosity, but she didn't see anything interesting enough to warrant a surprised reaction like the one Davies had just shown. All she saw were cars and people.. yep, just plain, boring things around, she thought to herself.
"You wouldn't understand anyway," Davies chuckled at her curious actions.
Fiona half expected him to say something like that, what she didn't expect was that he would Davies looked even more handsome with a smile on his face.
Even though the smile on his face was nothing but a slight upward movement of his lips, it still had the function of lady killer and Fiona was almost blown away and would have been completely blown away if not for her temperament and also the fact that she had a bit more experience when it came to handsome faces, but even then her heart began to race and she could feel it thumping loudly in her chest.
'Holy mother of.. what kind of karma did he have in his previous life to be born this handsome,' She thought as she tried to control her blood pressure from rising any further by taking deep breaths.
"Anyway, who's he?" Davies quickly took the opportunity to change the subject of conversation from him to the nearest scapegoat, who happened to be the handsome guy who came along with Fiona and Carlos.. also, he did not actually know the dude, so in his case it was a good topic of conversation.
"I'm Jordan," the handsome guy with a slightly haughty look on his face took the opportunity to introduce himself without waiting for either Fiona or Carlos to introduce him. He was already beginning to feel left out earlier and did not have a way into the conversation, neither did he want to interrupt the conversation as Fiona had warned him about who Davies was and not to stupidly provoke him, but now that Davies had given him the opportunity, he made sure to grab onto it and he quickly introduced himself.
Normally, Jordan was a pretty proud person and why wouldn't he be? He was a young master of the great Lecroy family after all.
For most of his life, there were only a few people who could enter his eyes and even lesser people that he had to pay respects to and that was why there was a naturally proud and haughty look on his face, but before the monster known as Davies Lake, even he had to act submissive.
He didn't even dare to introduce himself with his full name, lest Davies take it as him trying to pressurize him with his family name of the Lecroy family, especially with the naturally proud expression that he knew he always had on his face.
"Jordan? Where have I heard that name?" Davies wondered out loud with a ruminating expression on his face as if he was trying to remember something.
"Oh, right. You must be Jordan Lecroy," he exclaimed after glancing at Fiona who he had come with. It was the only possibility, after all, Only the Jordan Lecroy who was the previous racing king would know both Fiona Lecroy and Carlos the race organizer.
