Chapter 474
Carly smirked. โMom, donโt worry. Iโve taken care of everything.โ
Luryโs voice lifted with excitement. โReally?โ
Carly nodded confidently. โYes. Tell Dad and Grandma to relax. No matter how much Celine tries to push, Adam will always protect us. Heโll even force her to treat my heart condition. And soon, Adam and Celine will be completely done with each other.โ
Lucy was overjoyed. โThatโs perfect. If Mr. Alvarez and Celine completely fall out, things will get very interesting. Well done, Carly.โ
Carlyโs smile widened. The three-day deadline had passed.
Early that morning, Celine made her way to Aaronโs gravesite. She had given the Tate family three days. Today was the day to bring justice to her fatherโs killers.
Celine arrived at the tombstone where her fatherโs photo was etched into the stone. His smile was warm and kind. She reached out, gently tracing the engraving with her fingers. In a soft voice, she murmured, โBud, the Tate family will be here soon. Iโll make sure that every single person responsible for your death will pay the price!โ
Just then, her phone rang. She glanced at the screenโit was Perry calling. Celine answered immediately, โPerry, Iโm already at the cemetery.โ
โGood. Iโll be there soon.โ
โPerry, I can handle this on my own. You donโt need to come.โ
โNot happening. Youโre pregnant now. If youโre dealing with the Tate family, I need to be there to support you.โ
She felt a warmth fill her heart. Although she had been abandoned as a child, along the way, she had found people who truly cared for her.
โPerry, where are you now?โ
โIโm almost there. Iโโ
Suddenly, his voice cut off. A loud, piercing static noise echoed through the phone. Celineโs heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously tightened her grip on the phone.
โPerry? What happened? Perry!โ
The call dropped. All that remained was the empty dial tone. Her brows furrowed deeply. What just happened? A terrible feeling settled in her gut. Perry was never like this. Had something happened? Then again, who would dare make a move against him? Given Perryโs status and influence, very few people would even dare to target him.
Celine immediately redialed his number but was met with a cold, automated voice. โSorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later.โ
His phone was turned off? Celineโs unease deepened.
At that moment, several luxury cars pulled up. Sonia arrived fast, leading the entire second and third branch of the familyโCarly, Lucy, Hayden, Tracy, Wayne, and Haze. With this, the entire Tate family was assembled.
Celine let out a cold laugh. Her father had been dead for years, yet all these people never bothered to visit his grave? Not even once. Seeing them all gathered here today was quite a spectacle on its own.
Celine tucked her phone away. The Tate family had arrived, so she had to set aside her concerns about Perry for now.
Sonda stepped forward, leading the rest of the family. โOrline, weโre here.โ

She turned to face Aaronโs tombstone. โSince weโre all here, letโs pay our respects to your father.โ
