The opening ceremony of the racing competition was held in the Birmingham suburbs on the day before Christmas Eve. All racing teams would arrive at the official race venue following the opening ceremony

The day before the opening ceremony began, Alicia received the tickets Matthew had sent her. She was so happy that she kept begging Tammy to go with her. Tammy was drowsy the entire way because they had an early start in the morning. She grumbled, “What’s the big deal about this? It is only an opening ceremony, not a race. Do you realize this will be over once everyone has brought their cars in? I don’t think it’ll even last half an hour. I can’t believe I’m waking up so early for that.”

Alicia said, “I’m not interested in the official game! I’m only here to take a photo with Kevin.”

“Who’s Kevin?”

“A very cute racer. He was on a variety show last year and is now very famous.”

“How cute can he be? Is he as cute as Scott?” Tammy asked mockingly

Alicia flipped through the brochure, looking for a picture of Kevin

“They are not the same type. Here! This is Kevin.”

Tammy frowned and asked, “Are you sure? He’s a reserve player for my company’s team. He’s not even a regular on the team. Why do you find him attractive?”

“What? He’s a backup player?!” Alicia went completely still. She wouldn’t have known it if Tammy hadn’t pointed it out. On the brochure, Kevin’s name had a yellow line next to it, indicating that he was a substitute

“How did that happen?” With her eyes widened in shock, Alicia asked

Tammy yawned and appeared to be about to fall asleep. She looked around and froze when she noticed someone

“Alicia.”

“Yeah?”

“Look!”

Alicia turned to face the front row, following Tammy’s gaze. She asked after seeing the man, “Isn’t that Dominic? What id he doing here?”

Tammy frowned when she noticed the logo of Brisco Group on the small flag Dominic was holding. Brisco Group was Carousel Group’s biggest competitor

“Dominic seems to be on your opponent’s team.” Nudging Tammy, Alicia said with a sly smile

Tammy mockingly looked at Alicia and said, “Of course I noticed that! I hate him!”

“You don’t have to judge him that way, Tammy. It’s just a game, and everyone is playing fair.”

“Brisco doesn’t care about fairness or even morals.” Tammy snorted after she said so

“What’s the matter?”

“This happened a few years ago. Back then, the real estate industry wasn’t so heavily regulated. So, the Brisco group demolished many old buildings with bulldozers and even killed some residents. From then on, they are known for their tough demolition practices.”
