Chapter 208 Even Adam couldnt explain it .
What had he been expecting ? That Celine would actually come ? Mrs.
Alvarez went into the hospital room after I spoke to her , so I followed your orders and found someone clean to send over .
That someone was Nikki Adams face was unreadable now .
Got it .
He left the stily and stepped into the bathroom , turning on the cold water .
ley streams poured over his head , soaking his hair and trickling down his neck .
There were marks on his body , scratches across his chest , and a deep hite on his shoulder .
He had thought they were Celines , traces she left behind .
However , they werent .
Last night had been nothing but a dream .
Awet dream where he thought he had had her .
Celine never came , and instead , he ended up with Nikki .
He scrubbed at his slin furiously , as if he could erase the marks and everything they represented .
When the frustration boiled over , his fist slammed against the tiled wall with a load crack Nikki stood in the study , dressed again and waiting nervously .
Soon , Adaan walked in , now fresh from his shower .

He wore a crisp white shirt and black trousers .
His usual polished , aloof demeanor was fully restored .
His cold , detached bearing made it clear that the events of the night before were irrelevant now .
Mr.
Alvarez , Leo greeted him .
Adam took his seat at the desk , his sharp gaze cutting to Nikki .
Heres a check .
Take it and leave .
Leo handed her the check , a sum so large it was dizzying .
However , Nikki didnt reach out for it .
I dont want the money .
She didnt want the money ? A sardonic smile curled his lips , his voice low and devoid of warmth .
This was a transaction .
Youre here to sell your body , right ? If you dont want the money , what do you want ? Dont tell me youve fallen for me .
Nikkis face turned pale .
She had known he was cold , but she hadnt expected this level of cruelty .
