Chapter 405
Celine asked Adam to step outside, saying she needed to talk to him.
Carly immediately raised her voice in protest and grabbed Adam's muscular arm. "Celine, if you have something to say, say it here."
She refused to let Adam leave.
Celine looked at the two of them. She was pregnant now, and why should she bear this alone?
She couldn't let Adam and Carly be all lovey-dovey. No, she had to tell Adam about this.noveldrama
Celine said, "Carly this isn't something I can share with you. I need to speak to Mr. Alvarez. Mr. Alvarez, I'll wait for you outside."
With that, she left the room.
Carly clung to Adam and said, "Adam, don't go."
Adam pulled his arm away and responded, "I'll be right back."
He turned and walked out.
Carly was furious as she called out, "Adam!"
Adam stepped into the hallway, and Celine was waiting for him ahead.
He walked toward her. "You needed to talk to me?"
Looking at him, Celine said, "Yes, I do."
Adam said, "Go ahead."
Celine paused for a moment, unsure how to begin.
Adam asked, "Why are you not saying anything?"
Celine asked, "Mr. Alvarez, have you ever thought about becoming a father?"
Adam froze for a moment, clearly caught off guard by the question. "Why do you ask?"
Celine curved her lips into a faint smile. "I just thought you weren't young anymore. I was just asking."
Adam shook his head. "No, I don't like children."
His voice was cold and detached, making it clear he had no intention of becoming a father.
Celine wasn't really surprised, but she did feel a bit disappointed. She simply replied, "Oh."
Adam looked at her and asked, "You asked me out here just for that?"
He gave her a once-over as he continued, "Celine, don't tell me you're pregnant."
Celine quickly denied it. "No!"
At that moment, a melodious

Or is it inconvenient.
Celine didn't respond.
Adam suddenly asked, "Do you and Perry plan to have children?"
Celine replied, "No... Mr. Alvarez, I'll get going first."
Just as she was about to leave, Adam grabbed her slender wrist, pulling her to a stop. "Celine..."
He paused, as though unsure of what to say next.
Celine quietly watched him, waiting for him to continue.
She decided to wait and see what he say. Did he want her.

live and her to die?
While looking into Celine's clear eyes, Adam couldn't bring himself to speak.
Since he didn't, she would.
"Mr. Alvarez, is my heart a perfect match for Carly's?" she asked.
Adam's tall frame stiffened, his expression frozen. "How do you know?" "Carly told me just now."
Adam frowned. This was something he hadn't wanted Carly to know, but somehow, she did, and she had even told Celine about it.
Looking at Adam, Celine said, "Mr. Alvarez, saving Carly means I won't survive. Do you want me to die?"
What do you think?
