"Mr. Alvarez, is it true? Has the real Dr. C finally arrived in Mercity?" Sonia asked with anticipation.

Adam nodded. "Yes. Dr. C will be attending tonight’s banquet."

The Tate family was overwhelmed with excitement.

Tracy’s face was filled with admiration. "The real Dr. C is finally here! They’re my heroine that I look up to, everything I aspire to be. I can’t believe I’ll finally get to meet them in person."

Tracy chimed in, "Dr. C has always been an elusive person. We were deceived by an impostor before, but now, we’ll finally see the real one."

Lucy’s curiosity was piqued, and she asked, "Do you think Dr. C is a man or a woman?"

Carly shook her head. "I don’t know either. But we’ll find out tonight."

Sonia turned to Adam. "Mr. Alvarez, please take us with you to the banquet tonight. We all want to meet Dr. C in person."

Adam nodded. "Alright."

Just then, a calm and elegant voice rang through the room.

"What’s the exciting conversation about?"

Adam turned around.

At the doorway stood a refined, ethereal figure—Celine had arrived.

Carly snapped, "Celine, what are you doing here? Fine, I’ll tell you some great news—the real Dr. C has arrived in Mercity."

Sonia smirked. "Dr. C is truly one favored by destiny. Celine, you might be highly educated, but compared to Dr. C, you’re nothing but trash.

Celine smirked. "So, you’re all planning to see Dr. C tonight?"

Tracy scoffed. "Of course! Celine, unlike us, you don’t have the qualifications to attend tonight’s banquet."

Celine watched their act with amusement before raising an eyebrow. "That’s interesting. I happen to know Dr. C."
----
Sonia’s eyes widened in shock. "You know Dr. C?"

Celine crossed her arms. "Did you all forget? | was the one
who exposed the fake Dr. C last time."

At the mertion of that incident,
Tracy’ sface twisted with frustration.
"Thatwas only because you had
Pefiy’s help!"

Celine’s eyes gleamed playfully. "Think whatever you want.
The fact remains—I know Dr. C."

Carly questioned, "If you really know Dr. C, then tell me—is
Dr. C aman or a woman?"

Celine smiled. "Dr. C is a woman, and she’s a beauty too."


----
Then, she tok a step closer to Carly,
her eyes gleaming with amusement.
‘Carly, yOu might want to be careful.
Once-Br. C and Mr. Alvarez meet,
who’s to say he won’t fall for her?"

Dr. C was a beauty?

A sudden sense of crisis hit Carly, o
and she immediately turned to
Adam. "Adam loves me! No one can
take him from me!"

Celine’s gaze shifted to Adam’s chiseled face, and she
asked, "Is that so?”

----
Adam locked eyes with her. Without warning, he grabbed
her wrist and pulled her out of the room.

They stopped in the hallway.

Celine yanked her arm free from his grip. "Mr. Alvarez, what
do you think you’re doing?”

Adam came to a halt. "That’s what | should be asking you.
What exactly are you trying to do here?”

Celine arched her brows. "You saw it yourself. | was simply
informing them about Dr. C."

Adam’s gaze turned sharp and scrutinized her. "You really
know Dr. C?"

Celine nodded. "Yep."
She took a step forward and smirked.

"In fact, Mr. Alvarez, you’ve already met Dr. C in person."
