Celine ended the call and was about to return to preparing the antidote when a maid approached her.

"Ms. Celine, the kitchen has prepared some chicken noodle soup for you. It's ready-please come downstairs and have some."

"I'm fine," Celine replied, brushing her off.

She turned to head back to her room, but the maid quickly stepped in front of her, blocking her path.

"Ms. Celine!" the maid said urgently.

Celine stared at her. "What's the matter?"

The maid fumbled nervously, unsure of what to say. "I... I..."

Before the maid could continue, Adam's voice cut through the tension. "Celine."

She glanced back, and Adam walked toward them.

"The chicken noodle soup is ready. You're pregnant, and you haven't eaten yet- please, go downstairs and have some first," he insisted.

Celine opened her mouth to refuse, but before she could speak, Adam took her hand and gently led her away, not giving her a chance to protest.

The maid watched them disappear down the hallway, letting out a quiet sigh of relief. She turned around and spotted Lucy standing nearby.
