In a deep and mellow voice, Adam <b>asked</b>, “Mr. Peyton, will Miss Genius Cattend the Pinnacle of Academic Symposium?”
What? The words “Miss Genius C” struck a sensitive chord in Carly’s heart. Her ears perked up instantly. Was the mysterious, aloof genius going to make an appearance?
Samuel replied, “Mr. Alvarez, she had been in Mercity all along. Unfortunately, you’ve never met despite being in the same city. But now, she’ll be attending the symposium, and you’ll finally get to meet her.
“Mr. Alvarez, we’d appreciate it if you could spare some time to attend that day.”
Adam nodded and said, “I’ll be there.”
The call ended, leaving Carly in shock. “Adam, Miss Genius C has been in Mercity this whole time? Who is she?”
The social circles in Mercity weren’t thatrge, yet she had never heard of this person. She couldn’t ignore the presence of this so–called genius.
Even Adam didn’t know who she was. He had never heard anything about her either. He raised his strikingly sharp eyebrows at the thought of her mysterious and alool nature. To be honest, he was quite curious too.
“We’ll find out when the <b>time </bes.”
Celine had tallen seriously ill, spending seven days in a daze on her sickbed. Thankfully, on the eighth day, she finally recovered. Her illness faded like threads being pulled away, leaving her health once more.
Hailey and Robin threw their arms around <b>her </b>and eximed, “Celine, you scared us to death”
Celine opened the window, letting the bright, warm sunlight spill over her <b>fragile </b>frame, gliding her in a golden glow. She took a deep breath of the fresh air outside and yfully blinked
“Hailey, Robin, don’t worry. I’m all fine now.”
<b>She </b>had healed on her own. The light in her eyes had returned. Though the process of breaking herself apart and piecing herself back together had been excruciating, she hade through it.
She had epted the painful truth that Adam <b>no </b>longer loved her or wanted her. Gritting her teeth, she had carved him out of her heart.
She had no regrets. She had loved with all her heart. She had been like a moth drawn to the me. And because of that, she had no regrets. Hailey and Robin beamed with delight. “Celine, I knew <b>you </b>wouldn’t lose yourself over a man.
“Celine, you’re single now! From now on, you can have your pick <b>of </b>all the handsome guys in the world. To hell with Adam Alvarez!”
Celine wrapped one arm around Hailey and the other around Robin. “That’s right. It’s all in the past now. To hell with Adam Alvarez!”
With that, the three of them burst intoughter.
Celine soon returned to her sses. Today’s lecture was with James. As he spoke at the podium, she felt drowsy and rested her head on the desk, falling asleep again.
Seeing her napping during his lecture, James shook his head repeatedly and thought, “Celine really didn’t deserve Adam.”
What james didn’t know at the time was that his opinion was about to undergo <b>a </bplete transformation.
He continued his lecture, teaching from an ancient medical text, the “Sacred Herbal Codex“. As he was speaking, Celine suddenly woke up, <b>with </b>her clear, bright eyes fixed on him, she raised her hand and gestured for him toe over,
James froze for a moment. What was wrong with her?
He walked over. She looked at him <b>and </b>said, “You just made a mistake.”
What? He stillened. He was a revered figure in the medical field and known to some as a living legend. No one had ever dared to im he was <b>wrong- </b>beast of all Celine<b>. </b>
Confidently, he retorted, “Impossible.”
