The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel 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 name being 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 same busy tone. She couldn't get through to him.

Perry never cut himself off completely like this.

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

Mercity was Adam's territory. If he wanted to act against Perry, it would be far too easy.

Celine glared at Adam in disbelief. "What did you do to Perry? Where is he?"

Carly, clinging to Adam's arm, smirked. "Celine, have you never seen what Adam is truly capable of? If you refuse to listen, then Perry will be the one to suffer."

"And now, you choose to stand with them. Are you really going to protect these murderers?"

Celine pointed to Aaron's tombstone.

"Adam, you were cruel before, but at least you had some shred of humanity left. But now, here, in front of my father's grave, are you really going to side with them?"

Adam's fingers curled slightly as if trying to clench into fists.

He knew the truth—he had suspected that the Tate family were the ones who caused her father's death.

Now, seeing the cold disappointment in Celine's eyes, something flickered in his gaze.

Carly tightened her grip on Adam's arm. "Adam, you won't waver again, will you?"
