The Secret Billionaire Heiress Strikes Back Chapter 175
Chapter 175The sensor logs unspooled in front of her in dense, scrolling columns, and Ravyn's eyes moved through them with the fast, practiced triage of someone sorting noise from signal under a clock she couldn't afford to lose track of. *Lap 5 of 6* still glowed in the corner of the monitor, unmoved, mocking, though she could hear from the radio crackle that it wouldn't stay unmoved for long.She found the trigger architecture buried three folders deep, disguised under a generic label that any casual observer would have skimmed past — *AUX_TIMING_MOD* — the kind of name a person used when they wanted something hidden in plain sight rather than locked away where curiosity might find it.She opened it.The structure that unfolded in front of her was elegant in the specific, unsettling way that good engineering sometimes was elegant even when the purpose behind it was monstrous. It wasn't a timer. She'd half expected a timer — a simple countdown

Chapter 174The control booth, once they found it, sat behind a stretch of chain-link fencing near the loading dock, a squat prefab structure bristling with cable runs and a generator humming loudly enough to be heard over the distant roar of the crowd. A man in plain black stood at the door, unmasked like all of Marcello's operating staff, arms crossed, the specific bored alertness of someone whose job was mostly to look intimidating rather than actually intervene."We need inside," Ravyn said, already reaching for the small fabricated credibility she'd need to get past him, but Jayce was already moving ahead of her, his posture shifting in real time into something taller, smoother, the particular easy authority of a man who had spent his entire life walking into rooms he had no formal right to be in and getting waved through anyway."Whitmore," Jayce said, before the guard had even fully turned toward them, extending a hand with the relaxed confidence of someo

Chapter 173Ravyn moved through the crowd at a pace just short of running, the specific controlled urgency of someone who understood that drawing attention right now would cost more than it saved. Her mind was already three steps ahead of her feet, running through everything she knew about wired detonators, finish-line sensors, the kind of trigger mechanism that could be built into a car without anyone noticing — and arriving, every time, at the same wall.She couldn't do this blind.She needed eyes on the actual system — the race's sensor network, the control terminals that ran the timing and the triggers, whatever backend infrastructure connected the finish line's reading equipment to the device wired into Dante's car. A phone call wasn't going to get her there. Guesswork wasn't going to get her there. She needed her hands physically on a terminal that could show her the architecture of what she was dealing with, and she needed it in the next three

Chapter 172The comm panel built into the car's dash lit up on the second lap, a single amber light blinking beside a frequency display that hadn't shown any activity since the pre-race instructions. Dante glanced at it, frowning, and pressed the small button beside the speaker without slowing — Marcello's people had told him this channel was for race control only, emergency instructions, nothing that should be lighting up mid-lap unless something had gone wrong with another car."Go ahead," he said, voice tight with concentration, his eyes already back on the track, threading the car through the wide curve of the north bank."Dante."The voice came through warm, almost affectionate, and every part of Dante's body went cold at once, because Marcello's voice on a comm channel mid-race was not an emergency instruction. It was something else entirely."What do you want," Dante said."I wanted to congratulate you," Marcello said. "You're driving
The Secret Billionaire Heiress Strikes Back Chapter 171
Chapter 171The seat was cold beneath him, the wheel solid and unfamiliar under his hands despite years of muscle memory that should have made it feel like coming home. It didn't feel like coming home. It felt like stepping back into a life he'd spent five years carefully, deliberately leaving behind, and finding it exactly as dangerous as he remembered, except now there was more at stake than his own survival.He thought about all the reasons he had to come back from tonight in one piece. The list was longer than it had ever been, the first time he'd driven for Marcello, when the only thing waiting for him at the end of a race had been an empty apartment and a debt that didn't care whether he lived or died paying it.Now there was a five-year-old who checked his shoulder every morning. A woman who'd walked willingly into danger beside him because the alternative — staying home, waiting, not knowing — was worse than the danger itself. A man with careful ey

Chapter 170Jayce scanned the crowd the way a man scans a minefield — slow, careful, every face a potential detonation. His brothers had peeled off ahead of him the moment they'd cleared the entrance, drawn toward the staging barriers by the distant sound of an engine being revved, and he'd let them go, trusting the crowd's density to keep them from getting into anything worse than overexcitement.He moved through the masks methodically, looking for height, for build, for the specific silhouette he'd half-convinced himself he wouldn't actually find tonight despite knowing, somewhere underneath the hope, that he absolutely would.He found her by the bar.Green dress, dark mask, the particular alertness in her posture that he recognized immediately even from across the crowd because he'd watched her hold herself exactly that way in a conference room three weeks ago. Ravyn.His stomach dropped.If Ravyn was here, Dante was here. There was no version
