Chapter 202
Jajason walked up to Ashley and greeted her with a radiant smile,
extending his hand for a handshake. He exclaimed excitedly, “Hello! Ms. Ramos.”
Asialley also reached out her hand and replied with a smile, “Mr. Miller, halets.
Seeing them shaking hands and talking, the guests in the banquet hall were clill amazed, their mouths gaping.
Theodd tell that Jason's attitude towards Ashley was much warmer thin it had been towards Ryan earlier, even bordering on excitement.
When acting Ryan just now, Jason had only responded politely, without sucha amaniile. Coold dubbchant Kersion’s spokesperson was... As in coonnning everyone’s speculation, Jason looked at the crowd and declared with notion. It is an hoooooouuso have invited Ms. Ramos to be Kerston’s first and only spokespersonithe past sixty years!” The people were stunned for seconds. They had actually guessed correctiv Immediately, the entire banquet hall erupted with thunderou ‘ib However, some propis foound it strange and whispered to their companions. Strange. Didn’t Jason sayyhhey had chosen a racer as the spokesper Why did they invite Ashleyisis she celebrity?” You must have forgonen in Ashley can also race! She’s even better than Ryan! He’s no competition toohed!”
But even if Ashley is a great racersbes not a professional. She hasn’t participated in any oficial races, anddennane was never heard of in the racing world before!
Well, that’s true...
Ryan heard Jason announce they chossAshley as Kerston’s racing
spokesperson. It felt like a bomb exploding in his ears, leaving him. dumbfounded.
It took him more than ten seconds to snap back to reality, his face turning pale, his eyes glaring fiercely at Ashley.
If anyone else took this opportunity away from him, he might not have been so angry. But it was Ashley.
The person he despised and detested the most snatched the opportunity from him. Ryan felt a sense of anger and humiliation. Ryan took a deep breath and walked up to Jason. “Mr. Miller,” he said.
Jason frowned slightly.
Ryan looked at Ashley with disdain and coldly spoke. “Mr. Miller, you just said you would invite a top racer as the spokesperson, but now you've invited Ashley. Isn’t that against the rules?”
Jason shrugged. “How is it against the rules?”
Ryan forcefully stated, “Ashley has never participated in any official racing competitions, and her name is unheard of in the racing world!”
Jason seemed to hear a joke. He turned to Ashley with a helpless smile. “Ms. Ramos, did you hear what he said?” Ashley raised an eyebrow and glanced at Ryan.
Ryan clenched his fists, his forehead pulsing with veins. He th “What does that look mean?
‘Is she mocking me? Does she think I’m a joke?”
Just then, Jason spoke again, clearly addressing the crowd.
“Ladies and gentlemen, | said we would invite a top racing driver as spokesperson. It wasn’t a lie. “On the contrary, it is my great honor, after relentless pursuit, to finally invite the racing legend, Ava! “Yes, Ashley is Ava!”
AAt that moment, Ryan’s angry expression froze as if struck by lightning
on the head.
He almost fainted.

‘How can this bel
Ashley was his most detested and looked-down-upon sister. But his proudest racing skills couldn’t compare even a bit to Ashley’s.
It dealt a heavy blow to his self-esteem.
The reporters were all incredibly excited. One reporter said to another, “You didn’t guess wrong earlier. No wonder Ashley’s drifting skills are just like Ava’s. Because she is Ava herself!”
“Ryan even doubted that Ashley had ever participated in any official racing competitions, but she has participated in countless races! And she has won first place many times. She truly is a racing legend!”
After the initial surprise, the banquet hall erupted with enthusiastic excitement. The crowd on the outskirts went crazy, pushing their way in.
“Ava! My beloved racer!”
“No wonder Ashley’s racing skills are even better than Ryan’s! | understand now. How could the level of a racing legend be low? | am at devoted fan of Ava. In my heart, Ava is the ultimate champion of racing!”
“But isn’t Ava a man? So is Ashley actually a man?!” Hearing the last question, Ashley thought helplessly, ‘What are they talking about? | am a woman! A true woman!”
Pullan, who was standing next to Ashley, smiled helplessly. He turned to the person who doubted Ashley’s gender and explained, “Ashley used to wear a wig during races, so you mistook her for a man.”
At that time, Ashley didn’t want to reveal her true identity, so even if fans mistook her for a man, she didn’t deny it in time. Now, she was truly being doubted about her gender.
Everyone suddenly realized. “So that’s how it is. The racing legend is actually a woman! Awesome! Girls can compete with boys!”
No wonder Ashley confidently stated back then that Ava hadn’t died.

When he learned of Ava’s retirement, he felt conflicted, both grateful and disappointed.
He was grateful that he no longer had a formidable opponent.
He was disappointed because a legendary racer had retired.
But now, knowing that Ashley was Ava, Ryan felt that his previous admiration should not have existed.
Ryan’s eyes turned crimson as he stared fixedly at Ashley on the stage. He suddenly took a few steps forward and loudly questioned, “Ashley, no, | should call you Ava now. When you abruptly announced your
retirement, your racing fans were in agony. Some even cried and got drunk for you.
“Now that you're back, don’t you think you should tell those fans the reason behind your retirement right here, in front of so many people. and journalists?”
