The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 172 How Did He End up Here?

During the noon break, the live broadcast had stopped for an hour.

Simone retrieved three talismans she had previously drawn and folded into triangles from her bag, placing one in her pocket.

In case of an attack using mystical arts during the competition, she intended to use the talisman for defense.

Then, she handed one to Zac and another to Harry. “These are the talismans I drew. Keep them close to you.”

She was also concerned that someone might target them while she participated in the competition.

Harry, somewhat confused, accepted the talisman. “Thank you, Simone!” Although he refrained from asking further questions, he believed Simone must have her reasons.

Zac, on the other hand, received the talisman with concern, asking, “Will there be any problems?” He knew that Simone wouldn’t suddenly produce the talisman, give it to them, and keep one for herself.

Simone reassured him with a look and said, “It’s fine.”

Only then did Zac nod and caution, “Be careful during the competition. If you can’t win the prize money, it doesn’t matter. Just treat it as a fun experience.”

For Zac, Simone’s safety was more important than winning the prize money.

Although Harry didn’t fully comprehend their conversation, he sensed potential dangers during the competition..

Following suit, he said, “Yes, winning or not winning the prize money is not important. Safety comes first.”

Touched by their words, Simone said, “Alright!” The three of them sat down, chatting for a while before relaxing on the couch in the rest area.

At one–thirty, an announcement from the organizers in the rest area instructed all participants to gather at the competition venue and locate their assigned motorcycles according to the numbers on their race cards.

Simone changed into her racing suit and handed her backpack to Zac.
