Chapter 19
“What?” Garland Lucy’s faces turned palk
Celine looked at Carly, feigning surprise “Oh no, don’t tell me Mr. Alvarez didn’t mention he kissed me last night?”
She pretended to recall the moment carefully. “Last night, the way Mr. Alvarez kissed me was somewhat forceful and clumsy. He absolutely has no skill. Honestly, I started wondering if he even knows how to kiss.”
Carly stared at Adam in shock. He Idssed Oline?
Adam’s sharp, handsome face turned icy cold in an instant. Whether it was because she deliberately told Carly about the kiss or because she insulted his kissing skills in front of everyone, his piercing gaze locked onto Celine with frosty Intensity,
“Celine Tate!” he called her name, somewhat upset.
coline sneered what was this? Was he upset because she said a few things to make Carly angry?
Her clear, luminous eyes settled on Adam’s cold expression. “What are you yelling about? With kissing skills that bad, I don’t want to spend another minute with you. Let’s get a divorce!”
Adam froze, and Carly and Lucy were both rendered speechless.
Had Celine last her mind today?
Adam’s sharp features tightened into a harsh, angular line “rine. Let’s get a divorce now!
Celine sat in the back seat of Adam’s Rolls–Royce Phantom, while Adam drove silently in the front. They were headed to the city hall to finalize their divorce. The luxurious Interior of the car was sent as neither of them spoke.
Adam’s large, watch–adorned hand gripped the steering wheel. His actions accelerating, changing lanes, turning–were smooth and effortless.
“Who picked you up last night?” he asked abruptly.
Last right…
The words sent a jolt through Celine’s nerves. “The man you sent Inst night wasn’t my type. I went to find someone else.”
She added with a smirk, “In any case, I found someone who’s a much better kisser!!
Adam’s fingers clenched tightly around the steering wheel. He glanced at her in the rearview mirror, his eyes full of warning “Celine, are you bringing up last night’s kiss repeatedly because you can’t stop thinking about it?!
Celine went speechless at first, but then she met his gaze defiantly “It seems you can’t forget about it either.”
Adam was silent, his face darkening. He regretted asking about last night. It was his own fault for speaking out of turn.
The atmosphere in the car grew tense and heavy, charged with unspoken conflict. Then, the melodic sound of a phone ringing broke the silence. It was a call from Alvarez
Residence
Adam pressed a button to answer, and the butler’s voice came through. “Hello, Mr. Alvarez Mrs. Alvarez Senior has been in poor health again lately, and she’s been asking for Mrs. Alvarez. She won’t stop insisting on seeing her. You should bring her home soon.
Adam frowned, his brow furrowing deeply. He was on his way to divorce Celine, and now his grandmother wanted to see her.
With a sharp turn of the wheel, Adam changed direction and headed toward Alvarez Residence
Celine spoke up immediately. “Where are you taking me?”
