Chapter 162

Nicholas' second dinner was filled with laughter and warmth. Under the watchful eyes of the other patrons, Nicholas walked out at around 8:30 pm with his arms around Melody, Queenie, and Yasmine. In the underground parking garage, when Nicholas pulled up in his Bugatti Divo in front of the Maybach that Melody, Queenie, and Yasmine had arrived in, another round of gasps broke out. "What kind of car is that? It looks insane!" Even Queenie, normally composed, was visibly stunned by Nicholas' new ride. "It's a Bugatti Divo, the only one in the world," Nicholas said casually. Melody swallowed hard. "Nick... how much does a car like this cost?" "20 million dollars." His answer landed like a thunderclap. Queenie, Yasmine, and Melody all froze, their faces filled with disbelief. 20 million dollars just for a car? That kind of money wasn't just out of their reach—it was generations out of reach. A hundred lifetimes wouldn't get them there. No, a thousand lifetimes wouldn't be enough.
