Chapter 10 Master Brian
Far away in the ocean, a big modern city with a huge building, a woman sitting on the porch, holding a picture of her daughter with a sad face, Matida didn’t know that she was looking how long ago was Alise , since the day her husband was murdered in a pub was unknown. Time just like that involuntarily passed, leaving deep nostalgia in the old heart of a mother who yearned to find Alise day by day.
It was not until Mr. Arthur, the new husband who took care of Matida, came out, sat next to her and hugged her tightly to comfort her, put on a coat to keep her warm, did she show a slight smile on her lips. And both of them entered the house together, leaving behind the corner of the yard the sky was dark and the rain began to fall heavily.
As passed along the palatial buildings, a large mansion appeared, a young man with messy brown hair struggling in bed with the nightmare he was dreaming. Brian is a young man about twenty-three years old, tall and thin, with a cold angular face and closed eyes uneasily absorbed in his dream, as if he wants to wake up but sleep still tries to hold him. His brows furrowed and his hand gripped the blanket tightly and wouldn’t let go, a fear, an excruciating pain etched on his face. Brian’s forehead was drenched with sweat and his feet squirmed inside the blanket covered. It seemed that the strong movement of his leg was causing him more pain than ever.
What had Brian dreamed of looking so miserable? Does’t he want it to happen again? It seems that a rich young man like Brian has also encountered many great events in this whirlpool of life.
In the dream, it is a wide road with crowds of people passing by on both sides of the road with loud shouts and cheers for the cars that are turning loud and noisy to rub against the hot road. More than anyone, they do so to flaunt their own wealth. Brian sat inside a dark red car, whistling leisurely and with a sarcastic smile on his lips, looking to the side to try to provoke his opponent, David, a senior in his school.
David originally hated Brian, but because Brian was rich and powerful, he still did not dare to do anything too much, even though in his heart he hated and wanted to kill Brian himself to vent his anger. As for Brian, he was indifferent to it because it was not a legitimate concern for him to care about. Because around Brian there are a lot of people who don’t like him, no matter how nice and friendly they pretend to be on the outside, Brian knows all of that, but he is indifferent and ignored.
It’s time to start the race, a hot-dressed girl with short pants stepped out between the two cars holding a thin silk scarf to signal, the crowd around cheered even more excitedly, when the two most expensive cars of this car race prepare to start and compete with each other.
In this race, the players will have to overcome different race tracks from the murky forest to the craggy cliffs. This race is quite risky for ordinary people, but for genuine racers, it has a stronger attraction, the higher the difficulty, the more challenging they have to do, even though it is extremely difficult, dangerous and can cost them their own lives.
And why is Brian present this late at night but also one of the participants in the race? It turned out that it all started that day, one morning Brian kept hitting the balls in the hole while playing golf, and while having breakfast with his grandfather and siblings, Brian talked about racing car with Gideon, one of his best friends.
It was a beautiful morning at the Lawrence mansion, and Brian started his day with a round of golf on the large grassy course. Brian furrowed his brows in annoyance as he didn’t hit any holes today. Gideon teased him more:
“Unlucky today, huh? But luckily for me Brian, I hit the hole twice.”
Brian hit Gideon in anger to vent his anger:
“Go home”
Gideon fell to the ground laughing, he looked at Brian’s exasperated appearance, then smiled a little and followed him back to the mansion for breakfast. When sitting at the dinner table with the Lawrence family, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and heavy, far from usual. Everyone including Brian, Gideon, Matthew and Hazel are all waiting for Grandpa Wibul to arrive. While waiting, Matthew talked intimately with a maid standing next to him, he fiddled with his hands under her skirt, making her blush in embarrassment, despite the eyes of his sister Hazel, who were watching Matthew to warn him to stop that rude act immediately.
Brian glanced at Mattew without saying anything, he gave a sarcastic smile and continued to chat with Gideon. A few minutes later Mr. Wibul was also at the table with his newlywed wife Chesa, a beautiful woman with large breasts, she was only two years older than her sister Hazel, moreover Chesa came from a poor background. All of which made Hazel not take this stepmother seriously in her eyes.
When Chesa sat down at the table, she caught Matthew winking at her, Chesa ignored that action but still secretly smiled happily in her heart. Brian saw that and said:
“Are you trying to flirt with our new mother?”
Matthew laughed and replied:
“Why are you always aiming for me, Brian? I just said hello to her a little bit.”
Mr. Wibul raised his voice to remind the two of them to end the argument here. But it seems that Brian still hasn’t let go of his brother, he continues to provoke Matthew:
“Matthew, don’t be so quick to forget Kabel, our charming lover.”
Matthew angrily slammed the table, he drank the wine glass on the table and left the place, leaving behind Brian’s bitter smile, Mr. Wibul shook his head in disapproval, he motioned for everyone to eat their meals, ignore Brian who is annoyed with this unappetizing breakfast.
Gideon didn’t want to make things more stressful, he changed the topic to talk to Brian about tomorrow’s race with Felix and Aubrey. When Brian talked about racing, he felt a little happier and said:
“Tomorrow I will show you my driving skills, who is the number one person who deserves it after all.”
Gideon pats Brian on the shoulder encouragingly, and he can’t wait to see what tomorrow’s race will be when Brian accepts David’s challenge.
Back to the race, when Brian and David have overcome the murky road with obstacles placed on both sides of the road with other competitors left behind, the next destination they will have to overcome a towering mountain peaks with extremely difficult bends and turns challenging their professional drivers.
Crossing this mountain is to reach the destination, so both of them drive as fast as they can to pass because they don’t have that much time left when encountering obstacles in the middle of the road.
And while Brian was focusing on driving at full speed, another car suddenly crashed into his car from behind, a man was wearing a black suit sitting in the steering wheel with a sinister smile, he signaled hand with David driving from the side. David received the signal and ran up to the top of Brian’s car and crashed it hard many times, making Brian wobble and scream:
“Bastard, stop your dirty tricks right now.”
When David heard that, he laughed even harder.
“Brian, you’re annoying me, play with me again, buddy?”
As soon as he finished speaking, David and the man in black in the back used full speed to press on Brian’s car, knocking him out several times, causing Brian to hit him hard in the car. Finally, after the heavy hits, David threw Brian’s car a few times, causing it to lose balance and fell upside down on the road. Next, the black shirt’s car dragged Brian’s car a long way, pushing it to the cliff with a lying position suspended on high.
They laughed triumphantly and joyfully when they saw Brian being scratched and beaten by many wounds on his body, Brian sitting in the car with his head and limbs bleeding, when he heard the laughter, he felt even more angry, he will definitely avenge them at all costs when getting out of this miserable situation.
They laughed for a while then turned the car around and drove away, leaving Brian alone stuck on the cliff, he discovered his foot was stuck below and cursed under his breath when he first faced helpless situation like this. Brian is not allowed to move too much because then the car will slide down faster so he has to use his hand to move little by little to pick up the phone that is placed nearby to call someone to rescue.
But before he could press the call button, the car slid a long way down, making Brian’s leg more painful when it was pinched there. Brian felt the nerve in his leg seen to be paralyzed and shear off, a pain that penetrated the heart that Brian had never experienced. He let out a scream and fainted at that moment. The shock startled Brian awake with sweat dripping down his forehead. Brian looked around the room with a dismayed expression as he had just experienced that terrible nightmare. Then he looked down at his cast feet with bored eyes.
It seems that from the accident at that racing game, Brian’s left leg was broken and had to be temporarily cast, he is likely to become paralyzed if he does not persevere and practice walking regularly. After receiving that bad news, on the way home from the hospital, Brian became more angry with everyone because he himself was pranked by David and his accomplices, Brian will pay this debt because before No one has ever caused him such pain and hardship as now.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
