Chapter 25
Adam lowered his care to the photo, and his sharp, dark eyes narrowed instantly. The Ferrart in the Image looked very familiar.
He glanced at Nathan “The woman you’re looking for was driving this car?”
Nathan nodded. “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. Leo later reported that Celine had only chosen a Ferrari.
At the time, Adam had found it odd. Could she even drive a sports car?
He knew Nathan’s driving skills well–they had occasionally 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. She took the Ferrari out for a drive tonight and seems to have gotten into a street race. The car crashed into a wall, and the front was totaled.
Adam’s expression darkened. “Was she hurth
Leo shook her head. “No, Mrs. Alvarez wasn’t injured. Mr. Alvarez, should we send the car for repairs abroad?”
Adam’s voice was bey. “No. Get rid of the car.”
Lee was stunned “Mr. Alvarez, do 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
Nathan nodded. “Good”
Meanwhile, Carly and Melody’s faces were sour. Tonight was supposed to be Nathan’s welcome party, with the two of them as the stunning centerpieces. Yet, all the attention had 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 who could overshadow her like this. Determined to reclaim 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, and we get to watch you perform without buying tickets? What a privileged one of them said. “We owe all of this to Mr. Alvarez.”
a chance”
Another chimed, “When Carly dances, no one else stands
Someone else sald, “Everyone, let’s give her a big round of applause!”
