Chapter 224
224 Im not free , he coldly rejected .
If you need something , contact my secretary and schedule an appointment .
With that , he hung up .
The busy signal rang on the other end , and Celine sighed .
For Robins sake , she had no choice but to go to Adam .
Heron , Ill keep you updated , she said softly .
When Celine arrived at Lux Garden , the maid opened the gate and greeted her politely , Mrs.
Celine asked , Is Adam here ? Please let him know I need to see him .
Of course , Mrs.
Alvarez Please wait for a moment , the maid replied Celine stood outside as the maid disappeared into the house .
After a short while , she returned and said , Mrs.
Alvarez , Mr.
Alvarez is in the study , but he said he doesnt want to see you .
It was no surprise to Celine that Adarn didnt want to see her .
Ill wait here until he decides he wants to see me , she replied .
Just then , a luxury MPV pulled up , and Nikki stepped out in sparkling crystal high heels .
Nikki smirked at her , sneering Celine , did you come to see Mr.
Alvarez ? He wont see you .
He doesnt like you .
Your persistence is pointless .
With that , she strutted into the house .
Anger boiled inside Celine as she clenched her fists at her sides .
Inside the study , Adam sat at his desk , , reading through documents .
His usually composed and handsome face was cold with frustration , all because of Celine .
He had waited for her at the city hall , hoping to finalize the divorce , yet she stood him up .
He couldnt help but wonder if she had been playing games with him .
Adam didnt want to see her , no matter what she was here for .
At that moment , the study door opened , and Nildd walked in Mr.
Alvarez , she greeted him softly .
Adam glanced up at her briefly .
What do you want ? Leave .
Nikki noticed his distant expression and gently said , Mr.
Alvarez , I just wanted to thank you for everything these past few days .
I thought Id invite you for a drink .
If its a bad time , Ill leave .
I did see Celine downstairs on my way up … Adams expression shifted .
Come back .
Nild paused and turned Well go to the bar now , Adam said .
Nikid smiled , feeling pleased with his change of heart .
Celine had been waiting outside all this time .
Soon , the gates of the villa opened , and Adam walked out with Nikki by his side .
Celine quickly stepped forward .
Adam , please , just five minutes .
I need to talk to you , Adams cold gaze landed on her beautiful face , I dont have time .
Nikki smiled and said , Sorry , Celine .
Alvarez is talking me to the bar .
Well be going now .
With that , Nildd got into Adams Rolls Royce Phantom .
He sped away , leaving Celine with the cold , fading silhouette of the car .
Benjamin was surprised when Adan walked in with Nikki at Club 1996 .
Isnt this the famous Ms.
Barnett ? Adam , whats she doing here with you ? Benjamin was familiar with the entertainment industry .
He had dated both rising stars and fresh faced models .
Adam remained silent , He wore a black shirt with the top buttons undone , revealing his sharp collarbone , and black trousers .
Leaning back in his chair , he opened a bottle of wine and drank straight from li .
Nikld stopped him as he reached for a second bottle , pressing her delicate hand on lals .
Alvarez , dont drink anymore , she said softly .
