Chapter 78

celine returned to Alvarez Residence, hoping to see Mary. As she approached Mary’s room, she heard a conversation between her and Adam.

Mary said genth, “Adam, Celme’s adoptive father came by today. I noticed she wasn’t herself afterward. You should spend more time with her and show her you care”

She sighed softly and continued, “Celine was sent to the countryside at such a young age. Her father passed away early, and her mother treated her poorly. I can see how lonely she’s been, how much she craves love.

“Though her adoptive father spent ten years in prison, he raised a wonderful girl like Celine to be part of our family as your wife. We should be grateful to him for that. If he needs

thing–be it a house, a job, or financial support–make the arrangements It’s the least we can do for her.”

Mary instructed Adam with heartfelt earnestness.

Adam’s sharp features softened under the warm light as he nodded “Don’t worry, Grandma. I’ll handle it.”

Standing outside the door, Celine felt her vision blur as tears welled up in her eyes she didn’t go in. Instead, she quietly turned around and returned to her room.

Later that night, Adam returned to their bedroom after finishing his work in the study.

Celine was already asleep, curled into a small, fragile ball under the cors.

After a quick shower, Adam noticed something on the bedside table. It was the check for one million dollars he had given to Larry.
