Chapter 550
"What?"
Grace was so shocked she nearly jumped up. She had heard of this woman
named Celine, but she had no idea that Celine was pregnant with another man's child. "This woman's personal life is so chaotic. How could Adam be interested in someone like that?"
"Mrs. Alvarez, don't blame Adam. It's all Celine's fault. She's too good at seducing men. Now, Adam doesn't even want to marry me because of her."
Grace turned to Nigel. "Mr. Hampton, I apologize for this embarrassment."
Nigel raised an eyebrow. "Our families have a marriage agreement, but if Adam doesn't want to marry Carly, the Hampton family won't force it. However, Carly is deeply in love with Adam. As a father, I only want my daughter to be happy and fulfilled."
Nigel looked at Carly with deep affection. As a father, he would go to great lengths to ensure his daughter's happiness, even if it meant plucking stars from the sky.
Grace nodded. "I understand, Mr. Hampton. Don't worry, the marriage agreement between our families will stand. I'll go meet this Celine myself."
Celine had returned to her apartment in Jupiter Heights. Since she was planning to leave for Fustain, she was in the middle of wrapping up some affairs.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Who could it be?
Celine went to open the door and found a group of black-suited bodyguards and Grace's personal maid, Sofia, standing outside.
Sofia looked at Celine. "Are you Ms. Tate?"
Celine nodded. "That's me. Who are you?"
Sofia replied politely, "Ms. Tate, Mrs. Alvarez has arrived in Mercity today. She would like to meet with you."
Celine glanced at the bodyguards behind Sofia. "I assume Grace hasn't given me the option to refuse?"
Sofia smiled. "It seems you're a smart woman. I've heard you're pregnant, so it's best if you come willingly."
Celine wasn't entirely surprised. She had expected Grace to seek her out eventually. She nodded. "Alright, I'll go meet Grace."
At that moment, Hailey arrived. "Celine, where are you going? Who are these people?"
Celine reassured her, saying, "Hailey, it's fine. Mrs. Alvarez wants to see me. I'll be back soon."
Sofia gestured toward the car. "Ms. Tate, this way, please."
Celine followed them without hesitation.
Hailey panicked. "Celine!"
Without wasting a second, she pulled out her phone and dialed a number. "Adam, we have a problem!"
At that moment, Adam was in his office at Alvarez Group, reviewing documents. The moment he saw Hailey's call, he answered
immediately.
Adam's hand froze in mid-air. "What happened to Celine?"
"She was taken away!" Hailey replied.
"Who? Who took her?" Adam demanded.
Hailey hesitated for a second before saying,
betterdam, you should know anyone. It wasn't nee
anyone-it was your mother"
Adam's expression darkened. His mother had taken Celine.
"I understand, Allie. I'm going to bring her back right now."noveldrama
After ending the call, Adam turned to Leo. "Find out where my mother took Celine right now."
Leo nodded firmly. "Yes, Mr. Alvarez. I'll get on it immediately."
Celine was
taken to a hotel room.
Sofia opened the door, and Celine walked in to see Grace sitting in her wheelchair. She eyed Celine up and down with an expression of disdain. "So, you're Celine?"
What do you think?
