At that moment, Adam stood up. "Mom, I don't see the point in staying for this meal. I'm heading to the office."
Without waiting for a response, he strode out of the room.
"Adam? Adam!" Grace called after him, but he didn't turn back.
Carly watched him leave, a dark glint flashing in her eyes.
For the past three years, she had run into countless walls with Adam. Yet, the more unattainable he was, the more she wanted him.
Now that she was the daughter of the wealthiest man in the country, there was nothing she couldn't have.
She walked over to Grace and said, "Mrs. Alvarez, did you see that?"
Grace was furious. "Carly, this is all Adam's fault. Don't worry. I'll make sure he listens to me when we get home."
"Mrs. Alvarez, please don't be too hard on him. If he gets hurt, I'd feel awful."
"Carly, you're too good to him."
"Mrs. Alvarez, this isn't Adam's fault. If anyone's to blame, it's Celine. She's back in Kinthorne again, stirring up trouble with Adam. Everyone knows about the Alvarez-Hampton engagement, but she just had to show up right when we're about to get married. She's manipulative, no doubt about it."
Grace frowned. "That woman is definitely up to something."
"She's worse than that, Mrs. Alvarez. Wasn't she pregnant three years ago? Now, she's back, bringing her daughter along. The father is Perry, yet her daughter clings to Adam, asking him to hold her. Like mother, like daughter. Those two are trying to sink their claws into him!"
"What?" Grace was very shocked. "You're telling me Celine's daughter is clinging to Adam?"
Carly nodded. "I saw it with my own eyes."
Grace said angrily, "Our family have always prided ourselves on a pure and prestigious bloodline. I've been waiting for you and Adam to marry and give me a grandson.
"And now, Celine has the audacity to bring her child into the picture? Does she really think Adam will raise another man's daughter? Not a chance!"
"Mrs. Alvarez, Mr. Alvarez has always been devoted to you. There's no real grudge between you two, so maybe you should just talk to him."
Talk to him? How?
Grace knew Adam's heart was still set on Celine.
Just then, a soft, childlike voice rang out. "Grandma!"
Grace looked up and saw a little girl standing nearby, rosy-cheeked and utterly adorable.
Bella looked at the wheelchair and asked, "Grandma, why are you sitting in a chair?"
Grace took an instant liking to Bella. With a warm smile, she said, "Sweetie, this isn't just a chair. It's a wheelchair."
"Grandma, why don't you walk by yourself? Why do you need a wheelchair?"
