Adam returned to the bedroom. “celine_”

The bedroom was empty. Orline was pone.

Aknock sounded at the door. It was Leo. “Mr. Alvarez, I saw Mrs. Alvarez on my way here. She’s already let

she lett? Didn’t he tell her not to leave?

“Mr. Alvarez, I’ve already sent someone to retrieve the antidote for the aphrodisiac,” Leo sald.

Adam pressed his lips together. “No need.”

With that, he walked into the bathroom to take another cold shower.

In truth, the aphrodisiac candle had been extinguished by Celine, leaving only taint traces that he had inhaled. The effects weren’t strong, and he could easily resist it

Adun stood beneath the showerhead, letting the icy water flow down his body. Tiny droplets splashed against his muscles, scattering across his skin. His perfectly sculpted figure could make anyone faint at the sight.

Adun closed his and tried to calm himself. But as he did, Celine’s face flashed through his mind.

The desire he had just suppressed surged back. He cursed under his breath, his expression dark and frustrated as he clenched his eyes shut.

The next morning, Celine was awoken by her phone ringing. It was Robin calling

Celine answered, and noises could be heard from the other end of the line. Robin’s anxious voice came through “Celine, you need to be careful of Benjamin. He came to my magazine studio today with a group of people to cause trouble!”

What? Benjamin went to Robin’s office to cause trouble?

“Robin, are you okay? Celine asked anxiously

“I’m fine… No!” Robin suddenly screamed. There was a rustling sound as someone snatched her phone away.

Benjamin’s voice came through. “Celine, your dear friend is in my hands now, You’d better come over immediately!”

Robin shouted, “Celine, don’t!”

“Shut her up,” Benjamin endered.

Robin’s voice was muttled as she tried to resist.

Celine’s gaze hardened. “Benjamin, don’t you dare hurt Robin! I’m coming now!”

ting for her with a group of bodyguards. Robin had been restrained, her mouth taped shut.

Celine rushed to the studio as quickly as she could. When she arrived, Benjamin was waiting for h When Robin saw Celine, she shook her head vigorously, signaling her to leave quickly Celine’s gaze locked onto Benjamin, “What do you want, Ben?

Benjamin was infamous as the troublemaker of Mercity. The only person he feared was Adam.

He stared disdainfully at Celine. “Well, you get here quickly. Carly called me last night, complaining about how you’re clinging to Adam and refusing to get a divorce. Seriously, how desperate can you get? Do you think a country bumpkin like you deserve Adam?

this was Carly’s doing she must have instigated Benjamin after her ordeal with Adam last night, using Benjamin to deal with Celine.

Benjamin had always looked down on Celine, thinking she wasn’t worthy of Adam. He had come to vent his frustration after being spurred on by Carly.

Benjamin moved to stand beside Robin. “Celine, since you’ve upset Carly, I’m going to teach you a lesson!”

He raised a hand, ready to hit Robin.

“Wat!” Celine shouted.

Benjamin paused. “Are you scared, Celine? Then beg for mercy right now!”

Celine met his gaze calmly. “Benjamin, I know you’ve always looked down on me. How about this? Let’s have a competition. If I love, I’ll beg for mercy. But if you lose, you’ll release Robin immediately.”

Benjamin’s interest was piqued “What kind of competition?”

Celine knew Benjamin had a passion for gaming “Let’s play a game and decide the winner.”
