Adam stared at Celine, seemingly wanting to step in.
However, Celine didn't want to see him, so she quickly turned her head away.
Adam froze.
At that moment, Lucy's voice echoed from outside the door. "Mr. Alvarez, Carly's heart's been acting up again. She wants to see you. Please go check on her."
Lucy had come to find Adam as Carly was feeling unwell again.
Both Mary and Hailey heard what Lucy said. Mary scoffed, saying, "Someone's looking for you again. Why don't you go?"
Hailey remarked, "Carly has pretended to have heart pain hundreds of times. It's like she has nine lives, and look at her, still going strong after all this."
Adam, still at the door, stood tall and stared at Celine.
She said nothing while Hailey poured a cup of warm water. Celine took the cup and drank it with her eyes lowered. Her delicate profile glowed under the light, bathing her in soft radiance.
Lucy spoke up again, urging Adam, "Mr. Alvarez, did you hear me? Carly's still waiting for you."
Adam glanced at Celine and then turned to leave. He really went to check on Carly.
Seeing this, Mary was speechless. "He really went! If he's going, he should just stay there!"
Celine held Mary's hand gently and said, "Grandma, it's fine. Don't be upset. You don't want to make yourself sick, right?
Mary responded, "Celine, I should've sent Carly abroad when I had the chance. If not for her, you and Adam wouldn't be in this mess."
Celine smiled as she said, "Grandma, it's not that simple. You can't force someone when it comes to love. Mr. Alvarez likes Carly, and no matter where she goes, his heart will follow. Even if you send her away, Mr. Alvarez will follow her."
"I really wonder if Adam has lost his marbles. How could he possibly fall for someone like Carly?"
As Hailey finished speaking, Celine's eyes widened in shock.
Carly saved Adam in a forest and brought him to a cave?
That was impossible.
She was the one who had saved Adam in that forest all those years ago.
Their story had somehow been rewritten, with Carly taking the leading role.
"Celine, what's wrong?" Mary asked with concern.
Snapping back to reality, Celine asked, "Hailey, are you sure Mr. Alvarez told you this himself?"
Hailey nodded and said, "Yeah, right outside this hospital ward. He told me himself, so there's no mistake. He said that what he feels for Carly isn't just love or affection. She's his responsibility, and he can't turn his back on that."
