Chapter 232

At that moment, Celine thought of one person: Nathan. She could ask him for help.

Later, Celine arrived at Nathan's villa and noticed his assistant packing. Surprised, she asked, "Mr. Lynch, what's going on?"

Nathan smiled faintly. "Celine, my father just called. There's a problem with one of our overseas companies, so I need to fly back."

In recent years, the Lynch family had shifted their focus abroad. Their business and assets were all overseas; Nathan's return was only for a short vacation.

However, his sudden departure made Celine suspicious. She wondered if it had something to do with Adam. Had Adam secretly done something to force his leave?

"Celine, is there something you need from me?" Nathan asked.

Celine shook her head. "No, nothing."

"Celine," Nathan said, looking at her tenderly, "Do you want me to stay?"

Celine knew this was Nathan's final attempt to test her feelings. A simple nod, and he would stay.

"Mr. Lynch, I'm not worth it. You'll find someone better than me," Celine replied, offering him no hope.

Nathan wasn't surprised. He genuinely liked Celine, but she had always rejected him. He had no choice but to let go.

Nathan smiled. "Alright, Celine, I'll leave then."

"Mr. Lynch, let me take you to the airport," Celine offered.

"No need, Celine. If you come to see me off, I won't be able to leave," he replied, smiling softly.

Celine stopped. "Mr. Lynch, goodbye."

Nathan chuckled. He hugged her. "Celine, we'll always be friends. Feel free to contact me anytime."

"Okay," Celine replied.

Nathan released her and left with his assistant. As he walked away, Celine slowly shifted her gaze. She would have to find another way to save Ro—. Suddenly, an idea popped into her head. Celine took out her phone and sent a message to Robin.

Celine arrived at Alvarez Group and approached the front desk. "Hello, I'd like to see Mr. Alvarez—"

Before she could finish, the receptionist recognized her and said with surprise, "Mrs. Alvarez, what are you doing here?"

Celine froze. She and Adam were secretly married, and since she rarely visited Alvarez Group, she was surprised by their recognition. "Mrs. Alvarez, are you here to see Mr. Alvarez? Please follow me."

The receptionist immediately led Celine to the elevator and took her to Adam's office. Along the way, many employees saw Celine; their eyes lit up, and they greeted her politely, "Mrs. Alvarez."

Celine was confused. "Do you all know me?"

"Of course, Mrs. Alvarez! You're still studying at Yorhine University, right? We saw Mr. Alvarez leave a meeting for you the other day," the receptionist said.

Celine was taken aback. She hadn't realized her story had spread throughout Alvarez Group.

"Mrs. Alvarez, we may be working here now, but we weren't the best students before. Don't worry though, Mr. Alvarez is a genius. He's a top graduate of Harvard University. He can help you with your assignments anytime!" the receptionist kindly reassured her.

Celine was speechless.

The receptionist led Celine to a conference room. "Mrs. Alvarez, please wait a moment. Mr. Alvarez is in a meeting with important foreign clients." Through the large, shiny, floor-to-ceiling windows, Celine spotted Adam inside.

Changes Made:

• Improved sentence structure and flow.
• Corrected punctuation (commas, periods, apostrophes).
• Replaced informal language ("dad" with "father") where appropriate.
• Added context and clarity where needed (e.g., specifying Robin as the recipient of the text message, clarifying the university names).
• Corrected a spelling error (Harvard instead of Haffard).
• Removed unnecessary repetition.
• Resolved a fragment sentence.

The revised passage is more polished and reads more smoothly.
