The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 769

Carly stared at Adam. "Adam, why are you with Celine again?"

Now holding Celine close, Adam smiled and replied, "I've always been with Celine. In fact, we're planning to get married."

"But... but you invited me to dinner, didn't you?"

Adam raised an eyebrow. "Dinner? That was just something I mentioned casually. I honestly forgot all about it. I can't believe you still remember! You weren't waiting at the restaurant all this time, were you?"

Carly's face went pale, and she struggled to grasp his words.

It was obvious now that Adam was toying with her, deliberately embarrassing her for his own amusement.

Hailey couldn't suppress a laugh. She turned to Carly. "Well, Carly, now you've seen it all. What do you think? Adam never cared about you. The one he's always loved is Celine."

Carly's gaze shifted to Adam. "Adam, is that really true?"

Adam winced as a sharp, throbbing pain shot through his head. He gripped Celine's delicate shoulder and fought the pain with all his might, determined not to let Carly notice.

He forced a calm expression. "Carly, why ask questions you already know the answer to? You know I've always loved Celine."

Celine looked up at Adam.

Carly felt a chill run through her, as if all the warmth had suddenly drained from her body. "Adam, don't you feel any physical discomfort when you're with Celine?"

A cold, intense glimmer flashed in Adam's eyes. "Carly, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"I—" Carly paused, realizing she was about to say too much. She couldn't mention the Heartstring Venom.

But Adam's behavior didn't make sense. He didn't seem to be under its influence at all.

Had the venom lost its power?

She had to find Anne right away.
