Celine held the candle in her hand and looked at Adam and Carly with a bright smile. "Mr. Alvarez, Carly, better luck next time." Ignoring them, she walked off gracefully, leaving Carly fuming.

Nathan chuckled. "Celine, see? Your help was actually Carly."

Adam asked, "What help?"

Nathan explained, "When you and Celine were neck and neck, she told me Carly has a weak heart. No matter how good your driving is, you can't drag someone like Carly along; Carly would definitely be her help."

Adam glanced at Celine's receding figure and smiled.

Nathan nudged Adam with his shoulder. "She's quite something, isn't she?"

Adam raised an eyebrow but didn't reply.

Carly huffed, "Am I invisible to you both?"

Celine and Nathan entered the Celestial Suite, while Carly and Adam headed for the Terrestrial Suite.

Robin grabbed Celine's arm. "Let's go. We need to buy bikinis."

At the bikini counter, the array of options was overwhelming. Carly and Melody arrived. Adam and Nathan weren't far behind.

Melody's sarcastic voice interrupted, "The ugly duckling is still just an ugly duckling. How dare she try to compete with a swan?"

Robin said eagerly, "Celine, your figure is amazing. We need to pick a bikini that shows it off perfectly."

Before Celine could respond, Melody continued, "Carly is a lead ballerina with a perfect figure. I don't mind if some try to copy her style, but what bothers me is that they end up looking ridiculous and still have the nerve to show it off!"

Celine remembered Carly saying the same about her once. Celine wasn't offended, but then she noticed Adam looking her up and down. She quickly averted her gaze. He probably thought her body couldn't compare to Carly's.

Nathan frowned and scolded, "Melody, why do you always have to be so nasty with your words?"

Melody's face turned pale, caught off guard by Nathan's scolding. "Nate, I—"

Robin interrupted, "Let's just pick out the bikini."

"Good choice, miss. The pink one is perfect for someone with fair skin and beautiful looks," the saleswoman complimented, handing it over.

Just then, Carly interrupted, "I'll take that one too!"

Carly also had her sights set on the pink bikini Celine wanted. Celine glared at Carly, who wore a smug expression. Carly was confident that her figure would outshine anyone else's.

After losing the race for the pink bikini, Celine was determined to win in another way. She wanted to push everyone in the hot springs and catch the attention of all the men.

A misunderstanding ensued regarding the hot springs. Celine stated, "Honestly, we only have one left"

Carly countered, "Well, you're naming a business. Shouldn't the highest bidder get it?"

Then, she smiled sweetly and looked around at Adam. "Adam, I want this bikini. Can you buy it for me?" she asked.
