Nathan immediately recognized Wendy.

Jessica hadn’t expected Wendy to be on the dance floor, especially not dancing so provocatively. Wendy’s graceful figure swayed with the music, her movements so relaxed and natural that her body effortlessly formed a seductive curve. Her hips swayed provocatively, reminiscent of the famous hip thrusts seen in pop girl groups.
As a dancer herself, Jessica couldn’t help but admit that Wendy danced better than her. Wendy was more precise, more alluring, and, if she were honest, more seductive.
The men in 1996 Bar couldn’t take their eyes off Wendy, some even whistling and shouting in admiration. The room was buzzing with excitement, and the men’s gazes spoke volumes.
Jessica clenched her jaw. Could this country bumpkin dance too? She, the lead dancer of a ballet troupe, was now being outshined effortlessly by Wendy, who seemed to be stealing the spotlight with little effort.
Why was it always her?
At that moment, Jessica felt a shift at her waist as Stanley’s hand left her. He stepped forward, his gaze locked on Wendy and not moving away for a long time.
Stanley was staring at Wendy.
Jessica felt a surge of anger, clenching her jaw as if she might snap them.
Benny and a few other rich second–generation men stood up, appearing surprised as they recognized the woman on the dance floor.
“Benny, do you know her?” Nathan asked, his eyes lighting up.
“Is that…Wendy?” Benny gasped, recognizing the woman.
Nathan’s eyes widened. “Wendy?” His excitement was clear. “She’s the one I’ve been looking for!”
Everyone was stunned. The woman who could captivate Nathan, with her ethereal and fiery charm, was none other than Wendy?
Benny was incredulous. “Nathan, are you sure? Are you mistaken?”
Sienna, who disliked Wendy the most, was also shocked. Wendy, the country girl she’d always seen as an ugly duckling, was now attracting Nathan’s attention?
“Nathan, why would you like Wendy?” Sienna asked, unable to hide her surprise.
Jessica couldn’t believe it either. “Nathan, don’t joke about this. This isn’t funny!”
Nathan ignored everyone else. His gaze remained on Wendy, a smile tugging at his lips. “She’s wild.”
Stanley’s face darkened. He had already arranged for the Ferrari to be dealt with, but this situation was still unfolding. Wendy–dancing like this, so provocatively–was making him uneasy.
What was she doing? If she could dance like this with a woman, what would happen if she danced with a man? Was she desperate for attention?
The dance ended, and Wendy, drenched in sweat, happily walked off the dance floor with Cecelia. They were headed back to their booth, but their path took them right by Stanley’s luxurious booth.
Nathan called out to them. “Hi, beautiful. It’s good to see you again.”

Chapter 27
Wendy stopped, recognizing him immediately–the man who had flirted with her while driving a sports car.
“It’s you,” she said.
Nathan smiled. “Yes, it’s me. I’m Nathan. I didn’t expect us to meet again so soon. Can I buy you a drink?”
‘Nathan?‘ Wendy didn’t know him.
Just then, she felt a sharp, cold gaze on her face. When she looked up, she met Stanley’s icy eyes. His gaze was like a blade, slicing through her.
Why was he looking at her like that? Was his mood still affected by Jessica’s provocative dance earlier?
Nathan glanced at Stanley, then back at Wendy. “Do you two know each other?”
