Celine quickly returned the photo to the box, saying, “Grandma, this is a photo from when I was little. It’s too ugly to show you.”
Mary chuckled as she withdrew her hand, “My dear Celine, how could you ever be ugly?”
Alfred chimed in, “Absolutely not.”
Celine smiled at the warm exchange between Mary and Alfred. She lowered her head to take a spoonful of the soup
Just then, the maid’s voice broke the silence. “Mr. Alvarez ”
Orline looked up to see Adam walking in
“Adam, you’re back?” Mary smiled warmly.
Adam took off his suit jacket and handed it to the maid before striding into the living room
Celine suddenly noticed something strange in her soup, as if it had something added to it. “Grandma, did you add something to this soup? It tastes a bit odd”
Mary raised an eyebrow. “Did you notice? I had some tertility herbs added to it.”
Fertility herbs?
Celine’s eyes twitched slightly as she looked at the soup. She and Adam hadn’t even consummated their marriage yet. So no matter how many fertility herbs she consumed, she wouldn’t get pregnant
“Grandmal”
Mary took Celine’s hand, her voice filled with concern. “Celine, you and Adam should start thinking about having children. I’m getting older, and my biggest wish now is to hold a great–grandchild before I close my eyes.”
Seeing the hope and eagerness in Mary’s eyes, Celine ka
knew she would have to disappoint Mary.
Just then, Adam sat beside her and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Grandma, Celine is still young. There’s no rush for children.”
Celine looked up at his handsome face. Was he putting the blame on her?
“Actually, Grandma, I do want to have children.”
Adam clearly didn’t expect Celine to say this. He looked down at her, surprised. She wanted children?
Celine winked playfully, her bright eyes full of mischief. “But Adam has been so busy with work lately. Every time he comes back to the room, he’s too exhausted to do anything.” What did she just say? Did she say he was too exhausted?
Adam’s face immediately darkened.
“Adam, you’re young and already too exhausted?” Mary sized him up from head to toe. “No wonder you and Celine haven’t made any progress in such a long time. Turns out the problem is with you.”
Adam quickly shook his head, “It’s not like that, Grandma__”
“Tomorrow, I’ll have someone make you a soup for fertility. You need to strengthen your body, so you can give the Alvarez family a grandchild!”
Adam, at a loss for words, could only stare in stunned silence.
Celine’s lips curled in a mischievous grin.
Just then, Adam shot her a sharp look, clearly displeased with her
Back in her room, Celine opened the box again and took out the photo.
The photo showed a helpless, suffocating young Celine
Just then, a melodious ringtone echoed through the room–someone was calling. Celine answered, and Larry’s laughter immediately came through
“Celine, you got the photo, right?” he asked.
Her expression turned cold “What do you want?”
“I want money. Mr. Abracez gave me one million before, but you took it back. Now you need to pay me. If you don’t, this photo will be sent to Adam, to Mrs. Alvarez Senior, and to everyone who knows you. What do you think they’ll say when they see it?” Larry threatened.
