Chapter 245
245 say ? What did he just si Celines pupils constricted .
He had gotten Nikki pregnant , and yet he had the audacity to say something like that to her .
Her shame and anger boiled over as she spat out , Youre shameless ! Adam lowered his gaze , his sharp features unreadable as he studied her .
Her long , pure black hair spread messily over the couch , framing her pale face .
Her clear eyes , bright and unwavering , stared up at him with indignation .
She looked exactly like the woman from his dreams .
At that moment , everything came rushing back A faint smirk tugged at Adams lips , Why are you calling me shameless ? What exactly did I do to deserve that ? Be specific .
Despite her sharp tongue , her scolding never went beyond simple words like horrible and shameless .
She sounded more innocent than scornful .
Celine glared at him .
Why are you here ? If you dare to bother me again , Ill tell Nildi .
Shes pregnant with your child and cant handle stress , Dont push Ar the mention of Nikki , Adams eyes gleamed with an icy sharpness.
She had dared to set her sights on him , and she would regret it by tomorrow .
Celine , are you angry ? Is it because of Nikki ? Because shes pregnant ? Celines face was blotchy , and she was overwhelmed with emotions .
Fury , shame , and sorrow surged through her all at once .
She sat upright and , in a sudden burst of rage , bit down on his Adams apple .
It was a sensitive and vulnerable spot .
Adam felt the sharp sting , and the edges of his eyes turned red with pain .
He sat up straighter and lifted Celine into his arms , placing her gently on his lap .
He wore a crisp white shirt and black tailored trousers , a classic look that accentuated his dignified charm .
Meanwhile , Celine was dressed in a white knit sweater paired with a pleated black skirt , the very picture of an innocent college student The sight of the sophisticated d CEO be holding a beautiful , youthful girl in his arms felt like a scene straight out of a movie A maid entered the room , holding a tray of coffee .
Alvarez … .
She froze at the scene before her .
The maids in Lux Garden were older and more experienced , but even they would blush at the intimate sight before them .
She quickly retreated to the kitchen , averting her gaze Adams long fingers combed through Celines silky hair as he cradled the back of her head .
She was still biting him and refused to let go .
His voice dropped into a husky murmur Celine , Im sorry .
His lips brushed against her ear as he whispered , Im sorry .
Celine froze and released him in surprise .
A delicate imprint of her teeth marred his throat .
She really had a habit of biting people .
His body bore several marks from teeth .
I dont accept your apology ! Celine pushed him away and stood up .
But Adams strong arm wrapped around her again , pulling her back onto his lap .
He pressed his face into her fragrant hair and repeated in a low , gravelly voice , Celine , Im sorry .
Celine was bewildered .
Was this some kind of twisted game where he hurt her one moment and tried to comfort her the next ? She didnt need his gestures of guilt Let me go ! Dont touch me ! Go find Nikki ! Celine struggled , trying to pry his hands off her .
Adams lips tightened .
Theres nothing going on between me and her .
He wanted to explain , but before he could finish , a loud knock sounded at the d door .
Celine ! Let Celine out ! Hailey and Robins voices echoed from outside .
Adam frowned in frustration Taking advantage of the distraction , Celine showed him away with all her strength and bolted toward the door .
Celine ! Are you okay ? What did Mr.
Alvarez do to you ? Hailey and Robin pulled her into their protective grasp .
