Chapter 525 Adam's call caught Celine off guard. She hesitated for a moment before picking up. "Hello, Mr. Alvarez." Adam's deep, compelling voice resonated through the phone. "Celine, why are you avoiding me? I simply wish to speak with you face to face." Her long lashes fluttered slightly. "Mr. Alvarez, we already discussed everything at the hospital. Any misunderstandings between us have been resolved.

There is nothing more to talk about." Adam fell silent for a moment before pressing, "Celine, can we at least meet in person? I just-" "No!" Celine cut him off abruptly, not allowing him to continue. Adam was taken aback. She added firmly, "Mr. Alvarez, it's late. I need to rest now." Without hesitation, she ended the call. Hailey let out a sigh. "Celine, if you don't want to see him, that's fine.

But remember, Carly is still in his custody, and he has given the Tate family a three-day ultimatum. Once the deadline passes, the truth will come to light. We will ensure that those responsible for your father's death face justice." Robin nodded in agreement. "Exactly. The Tate family deserves to be held accountable. Whatever pain you endured in the past, they should experience it twofold." Perry stood up. "Celine, have you made your decision?

Will you come with me once this is all over?" Celine met his gaze and nodded. "Yes. After we deal with the Tates, I will leave with you." Perry smiled warmly. "That's wonderful news. Grandpa, Cyrus, and Jason will be thrilled to have you back." Robin suggested, "Celine, you should get some rest. We'll head back now." "Okay," Celine replied. Hailey and Robin exited the apartment, only to come face to face with Adam outside. He looked at them intently.

"She still refuses to see me, doesn't she?" Hailey responded, "Mr. Alvarez, Celine has made it clear that she won't meet with you. She also informed us that once the matter with the Tate family is resolved, she plans to leave town with Perry." Adam's eyes flashed with anger. Just a few days ago at the hospital, he had overheard Celine and Perry's conversation, where she had mentioned leaving Mercity with him. Despite that, she remained resolute.

She had known all along that he had mistaken Carly for her and was unwilling to give him a chance to make amends. Celine retreated to her room, sipping on a warm glass of milk before bed. She stood by the window, gazing outside, only to spot a familiar figure below - Adam. He stood there silently, and she couldn't tell how long he had been there or how long he intended to stay. As she glanced down, Adam seemed to sense her presence. He looked up, locking eyes with her.

Celine turned away and drew the curtains, wanting to sever all ties with him. Just then, a notification chimed on her phone. It was a message from Adam. "Celine, I saw you just now. You saw me too, didn't you?" She chose not to respond.
