“That’s right, Mr. Alvarez. You carried Carly and <b>just </b>walked away. It was Mrs. Alvarez who took care of Mrs. Alvarez Senior when she fainted. Who exactly is the grandchild bere?” Alfredmented with dissatisfaction<b>. </b>
Adam was speechless.

Adam hugged her, forcing her <b>to </b>sit on hisp. “<b>Why </b>are you ignoring me?” he asked with a deep voice, smiling alluringly.
The words reyed in Celine’s mind. It sounded as if Adam was trying to console her.
it was easy for a woman to misunderstand the situation when a domineering man like <b>Adam </b>was willing to lower his ego to console her. However, Celine was clear–headed. She knew Adam would never show her affection.
