Chapter 25
Stanley lowered his gaze to the photo, and his deep, cold eyes narrowed sharply. He recognized this Ferrari.
Looking at Nathan, Stanley asked, “Was the woman driving this car?”
Nathan nodded. “Yeah, she even shook me off. She’s quite interesting.”
Stanley, if he recalled correctly, had given Wendy this Ferrari. In addition to a huge check, he had also given her some cars and houses. At that time, Zayn had told him that she had only chosen a Ferrari. He had found it strange -why would she drive a sports car?
Stanley knew about Nathan’s driving skills. In fact, they occasionally raced cars together. But Wendy was from the countryside–how could she have driven a sports car and even shaken off Nathan?
Just then, Zayn walked over. “Sir.”
Stanley stood up. “I’ll step out for a moment.”
Stanley left the luxurious booth and stood in a dim corner. Zayn whispered, “Sir, Mrs. Hawk called earlier. She went out tonight in the Ferrari. It seems like she raced someone on the road, and the car crashed into a wall. The front of the car is totaled.”

Zayn left, and Stanley stood alone for a moment, his lips curling into a cold smile. It seemed he had underestimated Wendy–she had even managed to catch Nathan’s eye.
Nathan was looking for Wendy.
Stanley hadn’t expected Nathan, whose standards were so high, to be interested in someone like Wendy, who came from the countryside. They could each play their games, but not Nathan!
Stanley returned to the luxurious booth. Nathan looked at him, asking, “Why did your secretary come over?”
Stanley’s face remained expressionless, his voice flat with no emotion. “There was an urgent document that needed my attention. I’ve already asked Zayn to check on the car. I’ll let you know if there’s any news.”
Nathan nodded. “Alright.”
Both Jessica and Sienna had unhappy expressions. Tonight was meant to be about welcoming Nathan back, with the two most beautiful women in Hovendale accompanying him. Yet now, the conversation had shifted to a mysterious woman none of them knew.
Sienna clenched her fists in anger. Who was this vixen who had managed to seduce Nathan?
Jessica, too, couldn’t understand who in Hovendale could possibly overshadow her. Determined to regain control,

she stood up with a dazzling smile.
“Stanley, Nathan, why don’t I dance for you two to liven things up?”
As soon as the words left her mouth, the atmosphere became electric. Benny and the other second–generation rich men burst into excitement.
“Jessica, you’re the principal ballerina! We get to see you dance without buying tickets!”
“We’re so lucky to be here with Mr. Hawk!”
“Who can compete with Jessica when she dances?”
“Let’s all give her a round of applause!”
