The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 535

This was the first time Celine had ever heard about the engagement. She stared at Adam in shock. She never imagined that Adam's and Carly's connection had been set in motion from the moment they were born.

Hailey, on the other hand, already knew about it. But Nigel's only daughter had been missing for 20 years, completely vanishing without a trace. Everyone had assumed she was long gone.

Who would've thought that Carly was that missing daughter?

Robin let out a sigh. They had been this close to finally bringing Carly and the rest of the Tate family to justice today. That was until this shocking twist about Carly's identity changed everything.

Adam pressed his lips into a thin line, his voice low and detached. "Mr. Hampton, that engagement was arranged by our elders. But in today's world, marriage is a personal choice. That agreement doesn't hold any weight."

Nigel's expression remained unreadable. He was a man who never showed his emotions easily. He chuckled slightly. "Adam, are you saying you don't want to marry my daughter?"

Adam glanced at Carly, who was standing beside Nigel. "That's right. I won't marry her."

Carly's hands clenched into fists at her sides. She shot Celine a venomous glare.

Carly didn't hate Adam; she only hated Celine. If it weren't for Celine, none of this would be happening!
