Chapter 24
At that moment came a melodious ringtone, signaling an incoming call. It was from Stanley.
Nathan guessed that Stanley was probably urging him to come to 1996 Bar.
Nathan turned his car around. Hovendale was Stanley’s turf and once he got to 1996 Bar, all he needed was for Stanley to help him find out who owned the Ferrari.
Wendy drove into the alley, and Cecelia said cheerfully, “Wendy, you shook him off!”
Just as the words left her mouth, there was a loud collision, and the Ferrari crashed into the wall.
Bang!
Wendy’s legs went weak. It had been three years since she last raced, and today, encountering such a tough opponent in a high–speed race made her heart pound.
Wendy and Cecelia got out of the car. The front of the Ferrari had been dented.
“Wendy, what should we do now?” Cecelia said, her legs shaking.
Wendy steadied herself. “It’s fine. I’ll call Stanley’s secretary and have him handle it.”
She dialed Zayn’s number.
Nathan arrived at 1996 Bar and entered a luxurious private booth.
Stanley sat in the main seat on the sofa, and Nathan sat beside him. These two men were the top figures in Hovendale, unattainable by most, the dream men of all the young ladies. When the two of them were together, they instantly became the most eye–catching folks in the bar.
Sienna was the happiest. Her crush had finally returned to the country! She looked at Nathan with a flirtatious gaze and even sat beside him.
Jessica sat beside Stanley, with several second–generation rich men from their social circle keeping them company. It was a lively scene.
“Nathan, it’s been years! You’re finally back!” Benny said cheerfully.
The rich second–generation men laughed.
“Nathan, is it true that the women abroad are more interesting than those in Hovendale? Have they caught your eye?”
Nathan, holding a wine glass, raised an eyebrow and smiled. “No, Hovendale beauties are still more interesting.”
“Yes! The most beautiful ladies in Hovendale, namely Jessica and Sienna, are here!”
When her name was mentioned, Jessica smiled and flashed a confident grin. After all, she was known as the most beautiful woman in Hovendale and was used to the attention.
Sienna, looking sweet, gazed at Nathan, hoping to attract his attention.
However, Nathan didn’t look at these two beauties. He turned his head and looked at Stanley instead. “Stanley, help me look someone up.”

Stanley clinked his wine glass with Nathan’s and took a sip. “Man or woman?”
Nathan smiled faintly. “A woman.”
Stanley casually took another sip of his drink. “No wonder you’re late today. Did you meet someone interesting?”
Nathan chuckled.
Stanley had been Nathan’s friend for many years. “Looks like it’s someone who really caught your eye. What’s she like?”
Stanley was genuinely curious about what kind of woman Nathan liked.
Nathan thought for a moment. “Ethereal, but also fierce. She makes your heart race with just a glance.”
Benny and the rich second–generation men were stunned. “Nathan, are you talking about a Hovendale beauty?” “Not Jessica or Sienna? We’re all dying to know which beauty managed to capture your heart.”
Nathan was known to be hard to please, and no one had been able to win his heart yet. Everyone was extremely curious about this ethereal and fierce beauty.
Jessica, who had been in a good mood, now found her smile fading. Meanwhile, Sienna went stiff.
Nathan opened his phone and showed the picture of the Ferrari’s license plate to Stanley. “Stanley, help me find the owner of this car.”
