Their Mistake, Her Rise - Chapter 150: Chapter 150

Everyone there was totally shocked, and they stayed that way for a long time.
"No way!" Daniel yelled, so surprised he almost lost his balance.
It was like the scene in front of him had knocked all his senses out—his mind went completely blank.
Brady was just as shocked by Paul's words. He knew Paul wasn't the type to talk nonsense—so if he called Zoe Fox, there had to be a reason.
Thinking back to the race just now, Brady had actually seen hints of Fox's style in her driving.
Even Henry and his team were totally stunned by what had just happened.
Paul didn't bother with Brady or anyone else's shock. He just went straight up to Zoe and said, "Fox, it's me, Paul Hawke. Do you remember me?
"You gave me some advice, and it made me a much better racer. I've always wanted to thank you."
"That's impossible!" Daniel shouted again, his face twisting in disbelief.
Fox was already famous in the international racing world years ago. Zoe was too young. If she was Fox, she'd only have been thirteen when she made her name.
Daniel looked at Paul and yelled, "How can she be Fox? Are you crazy, Paul? How much did she pay you to lie for her? Fox can't be such a little girl!"
Clearly, lots of people there still refused to believe Zoe was Fox. It just sounded way too crazy.
The noise around made Zoe's face change a little. She didn't think Paul would show up here and just blurt out her secret.
Zoe was still trying to come up with an excuse to get out of the situation when suddenly, a big crowd burst into the hotel.
Bloggers, online reporters, and influencers rushed in, with cameras and phones, all around the Clusia racing team.
But their main focus was Zoe. It was like everyone already knew—everyone was treating her as Fox, and the questions came at her nonstop.
"Fox, why did you finally come back to racing after all this time?"
"We heard you returned to Clusia and signed with the national racing team. Does this mean you will race for Clusia from now on?"
"Why did you hide who you were back then and never show your face? Was it because you were just a girl and people wouldn't accept you? Why show yourself now?"
"Someone told us you're Fox, the famous racer. Is that true? Please tell us!"
Everyone was waiting for Zoe to answer, but her face just got darker. No doubt—the one who leaked the secret that Zoe was Fox was Paul.
Paul had met the real Fox before; when he said it, the media believed him.
But Daniel didn't buy it. He shot Paul a mean look. "Paul, you must be crazy."
Daniel added, "I agree her driving is amazing, but there's no way she's Fox. Don't think you can just find someone to pretend to be Fox. She's not leaving Yaniston that easily."
But even with Daniel trying to stop it, once the media got involved, things quickly got out of control.
In the end, the whole world watched as the interview was shown live on TV via satellite.
"Fox, how will you prove you're really the legendary racer?"
"Fox, do you plan to stay in Clusia from now on?"
Racers all over the world heard the news and kept their eyes on their screens, eager to see this big live show.
In Clusia, when Charlie heard Fox had appeared in Yaniston, he ran home as fast as he could, threw himself onto the couch, and turned on the TV.
"Fox, you are my favorite idol. You're finally showing your real face. So, who are you, really?" Charlie whispered, hardly able to sit still.
Charlie had been a huge fan of Fox for years. From the day he started racing to making a name for himself, it was all because of how much he loved Fox.
Even though he had never seen Fox's real face—not once in all these years—he'd been hooked from the moment Fox first appeared.
Now, he was finally about to see his idol's face.
Just thinking about it made Charlie so excited that his hands trembled.
When he switched to the live broadcast from Yaniston, he saw a bunch of reporters' backs, with their voices overlapping as they shouted questions.
"Fox, as Clusia's top racer, you've won the international championship again. How does it feel?"
"Clusia's racers and teams are kind of weak. Have you thought about joining a stronger team?"
"These people are so annoying. I can't even see my idol!" Charlie muttered, but he still waited nervously for a glimpse.
Eunice just happened to come downstairs then. She was grounded at home, and her dad had even posted a guy at the door to make sure she didn't sneak out or avoid her punishment.
Even though she was grounded, she could move around the house as she wanted. Just as she reached the bottom of the stairs, she heard Charlie talking to himself.
Charlie kept going on about Fox again. Everyone in the family knew he loved racing, but his obsession with Fox was on another level. That was something everyone knew.
Eunice knew about Fox too. This mysterious racer had never shown their face in public, not even on the international stage.
That was why the news was such a big deal—Fox was finally revealing their face. Eunice couldn't help but glance at the TV, curious.
"Fox!" Charlie suddenly yelled from the couch.
Both Charlie and Eunice stared at the TV, totally stunned. For a second, they both forgot to breathe.
The face on the screen was Zoe—the person they knew better than anyone else.
