At the Spencers‘ residence, on the viewing platform.
After watching Alice win, her brothers didn’t say a word for a long time.
Linda’s face was burning with embarrassment.
Honestly, even if Alice didn’t have any other skills, just being able to race like that was a huge advantage for the family.
But back when they sent her off in Linda’s place, everyone figured that after spending so much time in the countryside, there was no way she had any real skills.
Linda could feel how tense her brothers were.
And then there was Scott, who had just given out the award.
Even from far away, Linda could tell he was filled with guilt.
Are they actually feeling regret now ?
No way .
I’m the one raised in Mapleford . I grew up in this house . My brothers watched me grow up . They should always be on my side .
She couldn’t let them change how they felt.
“Hi,” she said suddenly, her voice catching in her throat.
Gary and Charlie were quietly talking when they heard her voice break. They both turned, worry clear on their faces.
Linda softly brushed away her tears.
“Alice and I were swapped at birth, so we share the same birthday. Mine’s coming up soon- why don’t we invite her to the party?”
This time around, Scott had won prize money and locked in some sponsorships.
He even helped Charlie land a deal.

So things were finally looking up for the Spencers.
Of course, that meant Linda’s birthday party had to be a big deal.
But when she saw how her brothers reacted, Linda felt a chill in her heart.
Would they have forgotten my birthday if I didn’t bring it up ?
That never would’ve happened before .
She told herself they were just busy.
Too much going on to remember everything .
She tried to stay calm and sweet.
“Please, just say yes. I’m begging you.”
To her surprise, Gary nodded.
“I’m starting a chess company. Maybe I’ll announce it at your birthday party.”
