Abandoned for His First Love, Returned as Racing Champion

The prosthetic leg dropped off, and the pain from her broken leg stabbed deep into her heart, but it still hurt less than the damage to her pride.

“You damn bitch!” Russell ground his teeth, his eyes cold. “You want to call Leonard for help, right? Good, I’ll call him myself. I’ve got something to settle with him anyway.”

He crouched down and tightly grabbed Quincy’s chin. “His little childhood sweetheart signed him up for the RPC race. Help me tell him to back out.”

“I can’t do that.” Quincy gritted her teeth and endured the pain while putting the prosthetic leg back on, but Russell kicked it off once more.

“I’m not the type to go soft on women. If you refuse to help, then don’t blame me for treating you badly.”

Once he finished speaking, he snatched Quincy’s phone and called Leonard.

A soft sound rang out before the call connected, and Cora’s voice came from the other side. “Leonard is taking a bath. Why are you looking for him?”

Quincy’s heart sank all at once, yet she still held onto a little hope. “Pass the phone to him!”

“I won’t!” Cora hung up right after speaking.

Russell instantly understood and sneered with disgust. “Seems Leonard not only switched navigators, but he also wants to switch wives too, Mrs. Barnes!”

The bald man smacked his lips. “She’s disabled, and even her face is damaged. If I were Leonard, I’d choose the childhood sweetheart too!”

Russell gave the bald man a look.

The bald man instantly got the message and walked closer to Quincy with a dirty smile, tearing her dress apart piece by piece.

She tried her best to resist, but she was no match for him.

Soon, every inch of Quincy’s body was exposed.

Russell pointed his phone at her and took photo after photo without stopping.

“If Leonard refuses to quit the race next month, these pictures will spread across Phoenix’s hottest searches!”

After speaking, Russell harshly kicked her twice, then left together with the bald-headed man.

Quincy pulled the ripped clothes over herself and struggled to crawl toward her prosthetic leg.

However, before she could put it on again, she lost consciousness from the pain.

When Quincy finally woke up, she realized she was already in a hospital room.

“Thank goodness,” Leonard said beside her bed, his voice rough and exhausted. “You finally woke up.”

The terrifying memories before she fainted rushed back into her mind. Quincy instinctively grabbed his hand.

“Can you withdraw from the race?”

Quincy could not let those photos be revealed. She did not want to become a topic of gossip for others to laugh about.

Yet Leonard completely misunderstood her intentions. He stared at her with a deep frown, his eyes filled with disgust.

“Quincy, in order to stop me from racing, you actually used this kind of trick?”

Quincy’s heart tightened painfully as she quickly tried to explain.

“No, Leonard, you misunderstood me…”

But Leonard did not allow her to continue speaking.

“Quincy, this competition means everything to me. Regardless of what happens, I will never cancel it.”

His words instantly destroyed the last bit of hope in her heart.

Leonard mercilessly removed her hand from his and coldly said, “I’m going to call the doctor.”

After saying that, he walked away without turning back.

Quincy’s blood seemed to freeze in an instant, and all color drained from her face.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated. A WhatsApp message from the private detective appeared on the screen.

[Five years ago, Cora secretly entered the room where the route book was stored on the day of the competition. The surveillance recordings were deliberately erased, but I tracked down the surveillance manager from that time. He admitted Leonard paid him to delete the footage.]

[In addition, only three months after the car accident, Leonard started an affair with Cora. During these past five years, they have secretly stayed together behind your back. I already sent the evidence to your email. Please take a look.]

Although Quincy had already learned about Leonard’s betrayal, her body still shivered from the cold truth.

Back then, only three months after the accident, she had just undergone her first skin graft surgery. The pain was so unbearable that she could not sleep at night.

Meanwhile, Leonard had secretly been with the woman who caused the accident…

For five entire years, they had hidden everything from her while pretending nothing happened.

Quincy cried uncontrollably. Her heart felt as though it had been stabbed by a sharp knife, hurting so badly that she struggled to breathe.

She remembered the promises Leonard made beneath the stars and all the beautiful moments they once shared.

She remembered how, before the accident, she rushed toward him without a second thought, with only one idea in her mind.

Even if she lost her own life, she still had to protect Leonard from harm.

Now, everything felt painfully laughable.

After wiping away her tears, Quincy contacted the police and requested a new investigation into the car accident from five years ago.

Soon after ending the call, Rocco called her through a voice call.

The moment she answered, his calm and attractive voice sounded from the other end.

“I already took care of the situation. Recover properly first. There’s no need to hurry with training, so just think of this competition as practice.”

Quincy froze for a second, her breathing stopping briefly.

“How do you know about that?”

Rocco said he had not heard from Quincy for a long time and became worried that something might have happened to her, so he asked someone to investigate her whereabouts.

“Sorry, I didn’t intentionally look into your private matters.”

“It’s fine,” Quincy said sincerely. “Thank you for sending me to the hospital.”

She paused for a moment before continuing, “There’s nothing seriously wrong with my body. Training will continue normally.”

The man on the other side of the phone stayed silent for half a second.

“Are you certain you can do it?”

“Yes,” Quincy replied clearly, speaking word by word. “The competition is only half a month away. I can’t afford to waste any time.”

At that moment, Leonard suddenly stepped into the hospital room, his face filled with disbelief.

“Quincy, you want to join the competition?”
