Chapter 42

Earlier at Alvarez Residence, Celine had a hunch that Carly was behind the incident. Celine had been tricking Carly into talking so Adam could hear the story for himself.

He hung up and lifted his gaze at Celine.

Her gaze was detached as she smirked. “Mr. Alvarez, I’m sorry to disappoint you, but that picture was sent by Carly.”

Adam frowned and said nothing.

Celine tried to walk away, but Adam suddenly grabbed her arm when she passed by. She instinctively pushed him away, not wanting to have any physkal contact with him. *Your grandmother fainted from anger when you lett. She even called out your name in her sleep. You should pay her a visit when you’re free,” advised Celine before leaving.

Leo approached, saying softly, “Looks like Mrs. Alvarez misunderstood you, Mr. Alvarez. You never believed Carly’s words.

“In fact, you have been standing by the door the entire time. You would’ve heard the whole conversation even if she didn’t call you.”

Adam was an observant person; he would never simply believe one side of the story. He simply remained calm the entire time.

Adam had purposely left the ward to give Celine and Carly a chance to talk in private. However, he had been standing by the door, wanting to replace out who was lying

To his surprise, Celine shared his notion. Adam thought her smart for calmly making Carly talk.

Instead of giving Celine a lesson, Carly had given herself one

Staring at the direction line left, Leo praised, “Mr. Alvarez, I think Mrs. Alvarez isn’t as simple as we think.”

In the past, Adam wasn’t attracted to Celine. To him, she was nothing but a pretty lady. That day, however, made him view her differently.

He wondered what more was there to Celine. He was intrigued by the woman from the countryside who handled matters calmly and strategically.

Turning around, Adam ordered, “Let’s go home.”

“Mr. Alvarez, Ms. Carly will surely call you if she can’t replace you later,” reminded Leo. However, he immediately shut his mouth when he saw the stern look on Adam’s face Carly had taken advantage of Adam’s affection for her and crossed his line. The incident would make Adam angry for some time. Yet, Carly was still gloating, oblivious to it,

Mary was awake by the time Celine returned to Alvarez Residence

Holding Mary’s hand, Celine said sweetly, “Grandma, y

you scared me to death.”

Mary patted her back affectionately. “Don’t worry, Oline. I won’t die so easily, Otherwise, Carly will step on you”

Crine’s eyes reddened. Not that anyone dared to bully her, but she felt protected in Mary’s arms. For someone unfamiliar with love, Celine suddenly felt weak. She hugged Mary tightly, her eyes red with bears.

Just then, Alfred’s voice rang out. “Welcome home, Mr. Alvarez.”

Adam had returned. His gaze fell on Celine. It was his first time seeing her hug Mary like a child.

Celine hurriedly pulled away from Mary and stood up. “Grandma, I’m going to bed first”
