Chapter 210
Celine rushed to the hospital.
Adam had also headed to the hospital. He went straight to the VIP suite to look for Carly. She was lying on the bed, dressed in an oversized hospital gown, face as pale as a ghost while she remained unconscious.
He walked toward the bed. “What happened to Carly?”
“Mr. Alvarez, after you left Carly alone last night, the effects were taking a toll on her, and she collapsed on the floor. We had to rush her to the emergency ward to save her. She’s alive, but she hasn’t regained consciousness since.”
Both Hayden and Lucy were anxious and worried. They couldn’t believe he had pushed Carly aside and left her in such a vulnerable state.
Guilt and regret weighed heavily on Adam’s chest. Last night, Carly had tried to throw herself at him, pushing him onto the bed and attempting to kiss him. However, at that moment, all he could think about was Celine.
He had pushed Carly away and lett Tate Manor to go to the hospital and find Celine. He hadn’t known that Carly would collapse soon after and was sent to |_ the emergency ward.

This time, it wasn’t a question but a statement. Adam did like Celine.
Lucy’s expression darkened. “Mr. Alvarez, what”
She was in disbelief. Did Carly just say Adam like Celine? How was that possible? She wasn’t even worth anything! “Adem, have you forgotten your promise to me? You said you’d be with me. If you don’t want me anymore, I don’t want to blanket and tried to get out of bed.

Adam reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly. His voice was hoarse. “Nothing happened between Celine and me” Carly froze. She slowly turned toward Adam, her tear–filled eyes brimming with cautious hope. “Adam, is that true? Nothing happened between you two?
Adam met her gaze Carly had always been his girl. How could he abandon her?
He couldn’t deny it were moments When Celine made his heart race. He might even have liked her
