Chapter 237
“Why… Why is my pretentious mom actually Luna? Ahhh!”
Beau’s little face turned bright red as he threw his head back with his mouth wide open and wailed uncontrollably.
“Gosh…”
In another VIP suite, Rupert, who was already kneeling on the floor, felt his body go limp the moment he saw Corona safely cross the finish line. It was as if his spine had been ripped out, leaving his upper body to collapse like a pile of noodles.
Only then did he muster the courage to turn his head and look at the man standing behind him–the one who held his life in his hands.
Theodore’s gaze was currently locked onto the giant screen In his eyes, there was only Elara.
His hand, as meticulously crafted as a sculptor’s masterpiece, rested against the glass. The veins on the back of his hand faintly surfaced, resembling the delicate patterns hidden within rare crystals.
His long fingers traced the surface of the glass, gliding back and forth. From Theodore’s angle, it almost seemed
though he was gently caressing the woman’s face on the screen.
A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips, and his sharp, slightly upturned eyes flickered with amusement. Elara absentmindedly looked up at the big screen, her bright and open gaze unexpectedly meeting Theodore’s across the distance.
His hand that was still pressed against the glass trembled slightly. He was now like a mischievous child caught red -handed in the act.
His heart pounded twice. Then, the smirk on his lips turned mocking
A coward like him could only dare to imagine, in this ridiculous way, that he had actually touched the woman who was always his unreachable moon.
Niamh stepped out of her car, helmet in hand, and shut the door with a calm expression. She might have finished last, but she was just an amateur racer, after all!
As long as she appeared in front of the media cameras, she would gain exposure and attention. Even in defeat, she intended to present herself as confident and glamorous in front of the press.
The moment she spotted reporters entering the track, she strode toward them. But then she saw them all sprinting madly toward Corona’s direction, and Niamh pursed her lips in frustration.
Recalling that Harvey had been willing to pay a hefty price to hire Luna as her racing coach to help her earn a license, she figured she might as well go over and say hello.
Niamh glanced at the rearview mirror. Her makeup was flawless right now. Standing next to a woman who had given birth, she was confident that in both appearance and presence, she was in no way inferior to Luna
With her back to the giant screen, Niamh frowned the moment she spotted Elara in the crowd. Why on earth was Elara here?
The question had barely formed in her mind when she saw reporters swarming around Elara.

Scoffing, Niamh strutted forward while raising her voice to say, “You can just interview me directly. I’m not close. with my sister, so she doesn’t know anything about me…”
No one paid her any attention. Feeling something was off, Niamh stepped closer, only to hear the reporters firing questions at Elara.
“Ms. Jones, why did you choose today to reveal Luna’s identity?”
“Ms. Jones, what made you decide to participate in the exhibition race?”
Niamh was utterly baffled when she heard those questions being directed at Elara. Why were they even asking Elara these questions?
“You must’ve gotten it wrong,” she muttered. “What does she have to do with Luna?”
A reporter standing on the outskirts of the crowd couldn’t hold back a remark. “You really aren’t close to your sister, huh? You don’t even know that Elara is the legendary Luna?”
Niamh burst into laughter, as if she had just heard the most ridiculous joke. “Her? Luna? That’s impossible! She has nothing to do with Luna!”
The reporters ignored her. All their microphones and cameras remained fixed on Elara.
“I was only 19 the first time I competed in a race. Back then, I was young and reckless, and I saw racing as a way to unwind mentally.
“But then I got pregnant and left the track for good.”
As she spoke, she noticed Lesley and Finnegan approaching, with Merida walking beside them
