DO NOT VOTE! Thank you!

"I can consider anything, but not money!" Jennie hurriedly interjected to deter him.

If he wanted money from her, it was tantamount to wanting her life. Besides, she was penniless!

"Ha!" Sungjae studied Jennie with a grin. "Daddy, I don't need you to give me money. All I need is for you to plead with Big Brother to stop restricting my finances. Then I won't have to be worried even if we lose!"

"Huh?"

At the mention of Lisa, Jennie refused outright. "Don't drag me into this mess."

Lisa had made himself clear about his stance toward racing. That was precisely why he had forbidden Sungjae to race.

If she were to get embroiled in Sungjae's matters, she might get implicated or viewed as an accomplice...

"Daddy, you can't watch me as I die!" He wailed aloud.

"This isn't watching you die. This is getting something for free with a purchase." Jennie sighed quietly.

"What do you mean, getting something for free with a purchase?" Sungjae was bewildered.

"You want to die, but you're dragging me along..." replied Jennie solemnly.

He deliberated for some time before he raised his head. "Daddy, there is another solution. Can you join my team and help me?"

Jennie was speechless as she thought to herself, 'Spare me, please...'

"There is no time." She refused curtly.

"Daddy, you're so heartless and callous!" He whined as he cried.

He had thought of several ideas but he hadn't expected that none of them would work... Was his team really done this time?

"What is the number that your team has picked?" Jennie pondered it for some time before asking this question.

"I think we got number four," quipped Sungjae.

"Why are you so afraid in that case?" Jennie rolled her eyes at him. "The probability of you meeting a top team is very low."

There were three races in total for each team. Since Sungjae's team had picked number four, they were most likely to meet teams of their level. There weren't many good, strong teams, and even if they really met one, there were still two races left.

"That's true!" Jennie's analysis won Sungjae's approval.

So why was this kid so worried?

Jennie thought quietly to herself. She would have time to take part in the competition, as her scenes in the movie would be scheduled some time later. Furthermore, she had limited scenes.

"Daddy, is the He family team taking part?" Sungjae asked her.

Jennie had no reason to conceal the truth from him. There was no way they could avoid the competitions.

Sungjae rubbed his hands gleefully. "If only my team could compete against the He family team! Then, we would definitely win!"

Jennie threw him a contemptuous look. "Good luck."

...

Other than reading up on the new rules and regulations, she also spent some time reading the criticism online.

It seemed as though it had intensified instead of dying down. Even the media got involved, as they published eye-popping headlines to attract more readers.
