Chapter 735
Carly returned to her room, took out her phone, and dialed Anne’s number.
She had to come up with a plan with Anne. Otherwise, Celine was going to steal her family away.
The call connected quickly, and Anne’s cold voice came through. “Hello.”
“Ms. Warwick, what should we do now? Listen, Fiona was just here, acting all lovey-dovey with my dad. If you don’t make a move soon, they might just give me a little brother or sister.”
Carly was deliberately provoking Anne. She knew Anne wouldn’t be able to stand this.
Sure enough, Anne grew even angrier. “Before Celine showed up, everything was fine. But ever since she came, things have been slipping out of my control. I think we need to focus on getting rid of Celine first! Once she’s out of the picture, Nigel will come back to me!”
That was exactly what Carly wanted to hear. “You’re right, Ms. Warwick. We have to take care of Celine now!”
Anne let out a cold snort. “Don’t worry. I’ve already found a way to deal with Celine.”
Carly smiled. “I’ll be counting on you, then, Ms. Warwick.”
