Ryan Sheldon looked up and took a sharp breath.
When did they get surrounded by police cars?
What do these people want to do?!
Ryan Sheldon had been studying abroad since his teenage years and beca a professional racecar driver after university, not returning to his ho country for over a decade.
He was more familiar with foreign police than dostic ones.
So he instinctively used the approach for dealing with foreign police, obediently parking the car on the highway’s ergency lane, and imdiately called ho for a lawyer using his phone.
He first called his elder brother, but no one answered.
Then he called his mom, but still, no one answered.
Ryan was frustrated because all the lawyers he knew were abroad, and for a local lawyer, he needed soone from his family to step in.
With no other choice, he called his dad, Aiden Sheldon.
He was most afraid of his father, always feeling like he disappointed him, but this ti he had no one else to turn to.
Aiden was talking to Lucas Harlow at the ti.
He said casually to Lucas, "I didn’t expect you to make a na for yourself in the dostic film industry."
Lucas chuckled, "I haven’t even thanked you, brother-in-law, for taking care of my dad."
"It was your sister who took care of him. I’m not accepting credit for that." Aiden had a look that showed he didn’t want to be affiliated with the Stetford Family.
Lucas couldn’t say much to that.
In fact, if he weren’t the only son of Uncle Stetford, he wouldn’t want to be linked to that family either.
At that mont, Aiden’s phone rang.
He glanced at the number and found it was his second son, Ryan Sheldon.
Ever since he beca a professional racecar driver, this kid often avoided him, not calling even once a year.
This ti, he’d organized for them to return ho for New Year; let’s see if he dares not co back.
Aiden answered the call with a stern face and said, "Hello," "What’s wrong? Are you in trouble?"
He knew his son too well; Ryan wouldn’t co to him unless he was desperate.
Ryan urgently said, "Dad, here’s the thing, I’m being pulled over by the police on the highway, can you help find a lawyer?"
Aiden’s expression tightened further. "You’ve just returned and already causing trouble, tell , where are you?"
Ryan shared his location and even sent a video, saying, "Look, it’s this lady driver! She forced ! I didn’t do it on purpose!"
The video showed a female driver in a Grand Cherokee performing various high-difficulty maneuvers, which indeed surprised Aiden.
Lucas inadvertently caught a glimpse of the video and was montarily stunned.
He imdiately walked over and said to Aiden, "Brother-in-law, let see this video, who is this lady?"
Ryan, on the other end, heard his voice and quickly said, "Is that you, Uncle? It’s Ryan! I got conned by this lady driver! I just wanted to race her! But she called the police on !"
Lucas, hearing this, and seeing the side profile of the woman in the car, was almost certain it was Lawrence Winters.
He said to Ryan with a smile, "Where are you now? Can you take a clear picture of that lady driver? I might know her."
"Really? You know her?" Ryan was surprised, looked out the window, and saw the lady driver already got out of the Grand Cherokee and was talking to a group of female police officers.
From his angle, he managed to snap a photo at a forty-five-degree angle; it wasn’t a full face, but close enough.
Ryan quickly took a picture and sent it to Aiden’s phone.
The photo ca through quickly, and Lucas confird it was indeed Lawrence Winters.
He smiled and said to Aiden and Ryan, "Brother-in-law, Ryan, do a favor, this lady driver is my manager."
Aiden: "..."
Ryan: "!!!"
"Really?! She’s really your manager?! Does that an I might have a chance to race with her in the future?!" Ryan exclaid excitedly.
Lucas hadn’t fully understood the situation yet and said ambiguously, "Stay put, I’ll co to find you now. This doesn’t need a lawyer, I can handle it."
Aiden looked at Lawrence Winters’ photo and said in surprise, "Are managers this pretty now? She’s prettier than many celebrities."
"It doesn’t matter if she’s pretty or not." Lucas said seriously, "The key is if she’s pleasing to the eye."
Aiden: "..."
After a while, he slowly said, "...being pleasing to the eye isn’t sothing to be said casually."
"It’s the truth." Lucas replied cryptically.
Aiden frowned, and just as Lucas was about to open the door and exit, a girl dressed in a white fox fur coat rushed in recklessly, diving straight into his arms.
