Chapter 5: A Familiar Face 

The roar of engines filled the air as Amelia arrived at the track. She spotted Ethan surrounded by a group of people, deep in conversation. 

Someone whistled, drawing everyone’s attention. “Well, hello there! Now isn’t she a sight for sore eyes? Isn’t that Mark’s fiancée? Didn’t think he ever let her out in public.” 

Amelia ignored the whispers and tried to find a place to wait, but then she saw him: Mark. He was standing right in front of her, his expression dark. 

“What are you doing here? I told you I don’t like it when you follow me around.” 

Amelia walked past him, pretending he didn’t exist. He grabbed her arm, his grip tight. “What did I tell you about wearing those ridiculous clothes?” 

Amelia wrenched her arm free. “Who are you to tell me what to wear? You’re not my boyfriend anymore. Let me refresh your memory, we. broke. up!” 

Ethan, as if sensing the tension, walked towards them, a genuine smile lighting up his face. 

“Who is she?” someone whispered. “Since when does Ethan smile?” 

Amelia raised her hand in greeting. Mark’s face darkened. “You came to see Ethan?” 

Amelia smiled sweetly. “Yes, why? You thought I was here for you? Don’t flatter yourself.” 

Mark’s fists clenched, but before he could say anything else, she grabbed Ethan’s hand and led him away. She could feel Mark’s eyes burning into her back, but she refused to turn 

around.
