Chapter <b>175 </b>
Adam’s face was already dark, but when he saw how she struggled, pushing against his waist with her pale knees, his expression grew even more ominous
“Willie, I saw someone on this way!” a voice called out.
Willie Dougherty and his men had <b>arrived</b>. Adam recognized him immediately. Willie <b>was </b>second inmand in the underworld, and his hands were stained with blood
Willie was here for an affair, <b>and </b>Celine had caught him in the act. There was no way he would let her leave this situation unscathed.
In the criminal world, there were rules. The ck and white forces didn’t mix. Adam didn’t want to stir up trouble, but things were rapidly spiraling out of control.
As Willie and his bodyguards approached, one of them pointed in their direction. “It’s them!”
<b>Adam </b>didn’t waste any time. He pulled Celine toward him and kissed her hard on the lips.
Celine knew they were near. Before she could react, darkness enveloped her <b>as </b>Adam’s lips pressed against hers with <b>an </b>intensity that left no room for resistance. The kiss was almost <b>brutal</b>, filled with frustration and raw emotion as if he was releasing some pent–up an
anger.
She instinctively pushed against his chest, trying to break free, but Adam’s low voice stopped her. “<b>Do </b>you want to die?”
She didn’t want that, but she also didn’t want this. “It hurts
She frowned, her face scrunching up in difort, like a child caught in an awkward situation.
Adam’s less softened <b>as </b>he sensed her difort. He kissed her gently, pulling her closer
Celine’s hands, which had been pushing against his chest<b>, </b>slowly curled <b>and </b>grabbed the fabric of his shirt. Her gentle submission made Adam pull her closer, wrapping his arms around her <b>as </b>he kissed her again.
They were hidden behind arge stone, with only Adam’s tall, muscr form visible to anyone who might pass by
Willie immediately recognized Adam. He halted his bodyguards and grinned. “It’s not them. That’s Mr. Alvarez!”
Willie’s eyes gleamed with amusement. “I didn’t expect to find <b>Mr. </b>Alvarez here, enjoying a little private time with a woman.”
Although he couldn’t see Celine’s face, the sight of her slender arm, pale and smooth, was enough to <b>spark </b><b>his </b>interest. She had to be special it Adam <b>was </b>interested
Willie’s expression Erew lecherous. He couldn’t wait to see Celine’s <b>face</b>.
One of the bodyguards whispered, “Willie, <b>that </b>person definitely went in that direction. We should follow.”
“Let’s go,” Willie said<b>, </b>leading his men away.
As their footsteps receded, Celine let out a relieved sigh. She pushed Adam away with all her strength. “They’re gone.”
Adam reluctantly pulled away from her lips. “So, once they’re gone, you push me <b>away</b>? You’re so pragmatic, Celine.
Though Celine was unsure how Adam had ended up here<b>, </b>she offered a sincere thank you. “Mr. Alvarez, thank you <b>for </b>helping me novelbin
She tried to step away, but Adam blocked <b>her</b><b>, </b>trapping her against the
stone.
His gaze traveled slowly down her bikini–d body, and she instinctively raised her hand to cover herself.
“Mr. Alvarez, where are you lookdag?” she asked
Adam’s lips naled into a smirk “Didn’t <b>you </b>wear this to get attention? Now that you’ve caught my <b>eye</b>, isn’t that exactly what you wanted? “Are you <b>serious</b>?” Celine snapped, narrowing her eyes in frustration. This outfit <b>was </b>bought by Mr. Lynch, and I only wear it for him!”
He hadn’t bought her anything. Those were for Carly
Adam’s utile deepened at her <b>sharp </b><b>reply</b>. Reaching out, he pinched her soft cheek yfully. “Is that <b>so</b>? What do you want then? More clothes<b>? </b>I’ll buy you whatever you like –
