Chapter 305
305 After their divorce , she always acted fierce and fiery before him , like a little kitten baring its claws .
She had scratched his heart .
It wasnt painful but Now that Celine was in his chest , she was instantly surrounded by his clean , refreshing masculine scent .
Struggling harder , she yelled , Let go of me ! Adam simply gave her a shove , sending her sprawling onto the bed .
Her slender back pressed into the soft mattress .
Just as she tried to sit up , his presence loomed over her again .
He was already on one knee , propped on her bed , his hands bracketing her sides .
His expression carried an amused smirk as he looked down at her .
So , Celine , just how impressive are you ? He was clearly mocking her .
Anger flushed her delicate face a rosy hue as she glared at him .
Being impressive isnt something you say , its something you show .
And soon , youll see how capable I am ! Her fiery defiance only piqued his interest further .
His fingers reached out , pinching her delicate chin .
Celine , who are you really ? He was growing suspicious .
There was something about her , like layers of secrets that he couldnt unravel His grip on her chin hurt , and she shoved his hand and snapped back , Im someone youll never have ! The light in Adams eyes darkened , his sharp brows arching slightly .
Werent you mine once ? Celine glared at him .
That wont happen again .
The tension between them shifted , charged with unspoken intimacy .
His thoughts wandered , unbidden , to the last time they were on this very bed where they had slept together .
The night before their divorce , the sound of footsteps echoed through the dormitory corridors .
She had sat on him while biting her lip , her flushed face glowing with embarrassment .
She had been so nervous , so unbearably sensitive .
The memory hit him hard .
Now , with her lying beneath him again , Adam felt a tightening in his throat .
Quickly , he released her and stood up , The sheets were different now .
They were no longer the pink heart pattern from that night , replaced instead with a floral design .
Celine sat up .
Alvarez , you should leave .
No matter what it is , I wont tell you Adam looked at her for a moment before turning and walking out of the dorm room .
As he left , Celines phone chimed .
A message from Samuel appeared in their group chat , tagging both her and Adam .
Pinnacle of Academic Symposium is happening tomorrow .
Looking forward to seeing our senior and junior duo debut together .
Congratulations ! Celine stared at the direction Adam had gone .
She wouldnt say anything because they would be seeing each other again soon enough , Just then , her phone buzzed .
It was a call from Sonia .
Whenever she called , it was never for anything good .
Sure enough , Celine could guess what this was about .
Carly must have gone crying to her after things hadnt gone her way .
Celine answered the call .
Sonias tone was harsh and commanding .
Celine , come back to Tate Manor tonight Celines lips curved into a smile , Of course .
Ill be there on time .
Later that evening , Celine arrived at Tate Manor .
The house was bustling .
Even the extended family members were present .
