Observing the man's lithe figure and muscular legs, Aline murmured, "I've won nearly ten million dollars on this race, thanks to you, Ruth. You truly impress me."
Besides the wealth, she even got the chance to get to know a young, virile racer.
It was a temptation Aline found hard to resist.
Ruth, clad in a white coat and dark sunglasses, nonchalantly played with her delicate nails. She commented casually, “It's no big deal.
