The winner is clear

Its great that you know when to admit defeat.noveldrama

Theres hope for you yet! However, Andrew shook his head and said, I think theres a misunderstanding, Mr.

Andrew, how did you do it? Lauren burst into delighted laughter, ignoring the dark expressions around her.

Dr.

Lloyd, thats three wins in a row! I calculated the odds beforehand we just won nearly 1.5 million dollars! Youre incredible! Youre cheating! You must be ! Harvey exploded, unable to contain himself any longer. Yet, nobody responded to his protest.

After all, the clubs owner was another powerful figure who would not risk offending Mark over a few races

Mark chuckled bitterly.

Harvey, sit down.

We may have lost, but lets maintain our grace.

That wasnt cheating

Is the universe trying to tell me something? Bernard shouted angrily, Mr.

Thatcher, this kid just got lucky! Silence! Mark snapped.

I can judge for myself whether it was luck or skill.

Bernard felt his face flush with embarrassment and reluctantly stayed quiet.

Mark then turned to Andrew with genuine curiosity.

Dr.

Lloyd, Im still puzzled by these losses.

The crowd watched in shock as this young doctor made the mighty Mark Thatcher lower his pride.
