Adam lowered his care to the photo, and his sharp, dark eyes narrowed instantly. The Ferrart in the Image looked very familiar.
He nced at Nathan “The woman you’re looking for was driving this car?”
Nathan <b>nodded</b>. “Yes, and she managed to shake me ofl. She’s quite interesting.”
Adam’s memory clicked. This Ferrari was the one he had gifted to Celine.
Along with the substantial check, he had given her a few cars and properties. Leoter reported that Celine had only chosen a Ferrari. Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
At the time<b>, </b>Adam had <b>found </b>it odd. Could she even drive a sports car?
He knew Nathan’s driving skills well–they had asionally raced together. Yet somehow, Celine, a woman from the countryside, had managed to outmaneuver Nathan in a race? At that moment, Leo approached them. “Mr. Alvarez.”
Adam stood. “I’ll step out for a moment”
He left the luxurious booth and moved to a dimly lit corner, where Leo spoke in a hushed tone. “Mr. Alvarez, Mrs. Alvarez called earlier. <b>She </b>took the Ferrari out for a drive tonight and seems to have gotten into a street race. The car crashed into a wall<b>, </b>and the front was totaled.
Adam’s expression darkened. “Was she hurth
Leo shook her <b>head</b>. “No, Mrs. Alvarez wasn’t injured. Mr. Alvarez, should we <b>send </b><b>the </b>car for repairs abroad?”
<b>Adam’s </b>voice was bey. “No. Get rid of the car.”
Lee was stunned “Mr. Alvarez, <b>do </b>you mean…”
“Dispose of it. I don’t want anyone to be able to trace that car. Is that clear?
A cold sweat broke out on Leo’s back. Someone had clearly provoked Adam His temper was now as explosive as a lit fuse
“Understood<b>!</b>”
“Go now.”
Leo quickly left
<b>Adam </b>stood alone, his lips curving into a cold smirk. It seemed he had underestimated Celine. Not only bad she managed to captivate Nathan, but Nathan was actively looking for her.
The person Nathan was interested in was actually Celine
Adam found it hard to believe that Nathan, with his impossibly high standards, could be drawn to someone from the countryside like Celine
They could y their games separately, but Nathan was off–limits.
After returning to the booth, Adam sat back <b>in </b>his seat. Nathan looked at him. “What was your assistant here for?”
Adam’s expression remained calm, lis voice devoid of any emotion. “There was an urgent document I needed to handle. I’ve <b>already </b>asked Lea to investigate the car. I’ll let you know as soon as have information.
Nathan nodded. “Good”
Meanwhile, Carly and <b>Melody’s </b>faces were sour. Tonight was supposed to be Nathan’s wee party, with the two of them as the stunning centerpieces. Yet, all the attention <b>had </b>shifted to an unknown woman.
Melody clenched her fists in frustration. Who was this wen trying to steal Nathan’s attention? Even Carly couldn’t think of anyone in Mercity <b>who </b>could overshadow her like this. Determined to reim the spotlight, Carly stood up and fleshed a dazzling smile. “Adam, Nathan, let me dance for you both. It‘ lift the mood.”
Her words immediately livened the atmosphere, and Benjamin and the other heirs cheered enthusiastically,
“Carly, you’re a prima ballerina now<b>, </b><b>and </b>we get to watch you perform without buying tickets? What a privileged <b>one </b>of them <b>said</b>. “We owe all of this to Mr. Alvarez.”
<b>a </b><b>chance</b><b>” </b>
Another chimed, “When Carly dances, no one else stands
Someone else sald, “Everyone, let’s give her a big round of apuse!”
