Chapter 41

Their eyes met.

Looking at Adam earnestly, Celine explained, "Adam, I didn't send that picture to Grandma. I won't admit to something I've never done."

Gely tugged at Adam's shirt. "Can you believe it? She's still making excuses! How shameless!"

Adam's face was piercingly cold. He ordered, "Celine Tate, apologize now!"

With reddened eyes, Celine stood straight and refuted, "Let me say it again. I will not apologize because I didn't do it."

A dark look filled Adam's eyes. "If I'm not mistaken, your best friend Robin works at a small magazine company, right?"

A chill ran down Celine's spine, making her shudder. Did he intend to pressure those close to her?

Carly and Lucy watched Celine with condescending expressions.

Celine curled her fists. Adam had crushed her pride by allowing the two women to trample over her.

Tears of humiliation welled in Celine's eyes as she apologized slowly, "I'm sorry, Carly."

Carly smiled. "I'll let it go this time. Don't do it again, okay?"

Lucy added, "Celine, did you think you'd win by having Mrs. Alvarez Senior on your side? Mr. Alvarez doesn't even love you." Color drained from Celine's face.

Adam marched out, leaving the three women in the ward. Celine stared at Carly. "Is this the lesson you were talking about, Carly?" Carly smirked, dropping her act. "I'm teaching you that as women, we should rely on men, not old hags."

Shocked, Celine blurted, "Were you the one who sent the picture?"

Carly simply smiled, offering no denial.

Celine breathed sharply. "So you were the one behind all this! You sent the picture to Mrs. Alvarez Senior on purpose to make her act against me. That's a risky move!"

"You're not too dumb, after all. That's right, it was me. Did you think I'd suck up to Mrs. Alvarez Senior when she doesn't even like me? You're wrong; it's her loss. I will make her lose her beloved grandson."

Celine stared at Carly in disbelief. "That's Adam's grandmother!"

Carly scoffed, "So what? She's just an obstacle to my success."

"You're crazy!" Celine exclaimed. She turned and walked toward the door.

Just then, Carly's voice rang out, "This is just a small lesson for you. Remember, neither you nor Mrs. Alvarez Senior are a match for me."

Gely couldn't see Celine's expression because Celine's back was to them.

Celine slowly straightened. The humiliation and shock were replaced with an icy smirk. "Is that so? You're getting ahead of yourself, Carly," Celine thought.

When Celine stepped out of the ward, Adam's figure came into view. He stood outside the door with his phone in his hand. Celine had dialed Adam's number earlier; thus, he had heard the entire conversation between Celine and Carly.
