Chapter 501

Adam stared at Celine, seemingly wanting to step in.

However, Celine didn't want to see him, so she quickly turned her head away.

Adam froze.

At that moment, Lucy's voice echoed from outside the door. "Mr. Alvarez, Carly's heart's been acting up again. She wants to see you. Please go check on her."

Lucy had come to find Adam as Carly was feeling unwell again.

Hailey remarked, "Carly has pretended to have heart pain hundreds of times. It's like she has nine lives, and look at her, still going strong after all this."

Adam, still at the door, stood tall and stared at Celine.
