The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 476

Celine's eyes locked onto Adam. "Mr. Alvarez, what's the meaning of this?" Adam suddenly changed the topic.

"Have you been able to reach Perry?"

Hearing Perry's nbeing mentioned made Celine's heart skip a beat.

Adam was dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit, exuding an air of power and authority. His gaze was cold,

towering over Celine with indifference and dominance.

He had already chosen Carly, and now, he and Celine were nothing more than strangers.

There was no warmth left in his eyes-only the sharpness and ruthlessness of someone in control.

Adam broke the silence. "Celine, you couldn't get through to Perry, could you? No, to be more precise when you

were speaking to him, his call was suddenly cut off. Am I right?"

Celine had suspected as much. Her eyes widened in disbelief. "Did you do something to him?"

Adam replied calmly, "You can try calling him again and see if he picks up."

Celine immediately pulled out her phone and dialed Perry's number once again. However, she was met with the

She should've realized it earlier. Considering Perry's influence and status, there were few who would dare touch

when he's completely innocent!"

Sonia laughed. "Celine, we tried to

make peace with you earlier, but you were too stubborn to accept it. Did you think our family had no one

backing us? Mr. Alvarez is our strongest ally."

Lucy added, "Celine, you'd better start treating Carly soon. Carly's life is precious

—if anything happens to her, the people around you will pay the price."

Celine looked at the Tate family showing their ugly faces. They were only acting this smugly because they had

Adam's backing.

However, what disappointed her the most was Adam's choice.

Her hands and feet felt cold and numb as she stared at him.
