Chapter 126: Caleb Sees Luna’s True Face 

Menu 

Caleb turned at the sound of footsteps, seeing a woman in racing gear approaching. Sunlight streamed in behind him, illuminating his shoulders. He recognized the helmet she carried–Luna’s signature helmet, a deep blue adorned with a golden moon encircled by stars. Her upper body was shrouded in shadow. As she stepped into the light, he unconsciously held his breath. She wasn’t wearing the helmet; he was about to see Luna’s face. Evelyn was surprised he was waiting for her. She paused, remaining in the shadows. He turned to face her, one hand in his pocket, his posture ramrod straight, every line of his broad shoulders and back sharply defined by his bespoke suit. 

“I didn’t expect Luna to be so unreliable. Since you missed the deadline to pick up your car, 

those beauties have new owners.” This was their second encounter, yet Caleb felt a distinct malice towards Luna, an urge to break her, to tease and humiliate her, to make her submit. His casual stance belied the sharp intensity radiating from him. His cold gaze, like a laser beam, sought to pierce the shadows surrounding her. 

“I’ll give you one last chance. Ten million a year to coach Savannah. I don’t need her to reach the top; just make her a well–known racer within three years.” This was Reed Willow’s unfulfilled dream, and he intended for Savannah to complete it. 

He sneered.“You’re back after five years, appearing in the exhibition race to make money. But you’re past your prime. No team would invest heavily like Moon did. Luna, this is the best offer you’ll get!” 

As he finished, Evelyn emerged from the shadows. The scene slowed, like a movie moment. The shadows retreated from her neck and shoulders. Caleb’s eyes widened, the face of China’s former top female racer slowly revealing itself. 

Evelyn had countless times wanted to tell him she’d raced the Corona. She’d seen him leaning against the Corona, Reed Willow’s helmet and racing suit on the hood. A cigarette burned between his fingers, the pale smoke obscuring his weary face. Ash fell at his feet. She approached, and he caught sight of her pregnant belly.“Stay away!” he’d ed. She stopped, her – words of comfort cut short by his harsh rebuke:“I’ve told you countless times, stay out of the garage! Get out! Evelyn, can’t you understand?!” 

After Reed Willow’s death, he’d shut down the garage, forbidding any mention of racing or supercars. Only Savannah, using her friendship with Reed Willow, continued to harp on he unfinished dreams. 

Now, Caleb’s gaze was fixed on Luna’s face. He wasn’t usually interested in women, yet the anticipation of seeing Luna’s face made him catch his breath. 

Her jaw was small and round, her face a full oval. Her lips were like cherries, her nose delicate, her eyes gentle. Her dark hair was pulled back, with only a few loose strands framing her face. 

The face was utterly familiar! 

He froze, staring. His mind blanked. Luna… had Evelyn’s face? 

This was absurd! Was he still dreaming? 

The roar of the crowd jolted him back to reality. 

Evelyn completely ignored him, walking past. He spun around and grabbed her arm. What are you doing here?” His eyes were full of disbelief.“Why are you dressed like this?”

He looked at the helmet in her hand–Luna’s helmet. He opened his mouth, as if a wad of paper Savere stuck in his throat. 

“You’re volunteering for Luna?” His voice sounded unreal, even to him. That must be it! He clung to the thought. The news of Luna’s participation had overwhelmed the volunteer applications. People were dropping their jobs to be close to her. 

Evelyn laughed at his question.“How stupid are you? You see me in a racing suit, carrying the helmet, and still don’t connect the dots? Are you an idiot?” 

She’d loved him deeply in her youth, yet he lacked the courage to face the “real Evelyn.” 

“You’re going to prep Luna’s car? Do you have a racing license?” he scoffed.“Don’t wreck the Corona!” He wouldn’t pay for repairs. 

She scoffed, shaking off his hand.“Seven years of marriage, and you didn’t know your wife had a super license at twenty?” 

Before he could speak, she cut him off. “Did I never tell you? You never stayed long enough to listen!” She put on the helmet.“Let me introduce myself. Before you stands Luna, who got her national B–class license at nineteen and her international super license at twenty. My Chinese name is–Evelyn!” 

She walked towards the Corona. Caleb followed, watching as she slid into the driver’s seat. The scene shattered his preconceptions of Evelyn. 

Impossible. Absolutely impossible. 

“Evelyn, get out!”
