Carly had always been dismissive of Celine , but now she was starting to realize just how clever Celine was .
She needed to come up with a plan to deal with her .
Picking up her phone , she made a call to Sonia .
Celine returned to the dormitory , and Hailey was already there .
Hailey , did you manage to catch up with Declan ? Hailey sighed .
Nope .
He completely ignored me .
Celine smirked .
Looks like Declan isnt that easy to win over .
Celine ! Who said I was trying to chase him ? Youre just teasing me now ! Haileys face turned red Celine chuckled but decided to drop the subject .
Suddenly , Hailey grabbed Celines arm .
Celine , tell me the truth .
How did the birthmark on my face disappear ? Ive been thinking about it .
Yesterday , you gave me a really bitter pill to eat .
Dont lie to me .
It has to be because of that pill , right ? Celine opened her mouth to say something when a knock sounded at the door .
Who could that be ? Hailey quickly went to open the door , revealing a tall , elegant figure standing there .
It was Adarn .
Mr.
Alvarez , what are you doing here ? I havent had the chance to find you yet .
Youd better be careful of Carly .

That girl is vicious and scheming ! If it werent for Celine , she wouldve ruined me ! Halley said indignantly .
Adam looked at Halleys small , delicate lace .
The birthmark was gone .
Without it , Halley looked as soft and radiant as a luminous pearl .
This was his cousin He had been in the car yesterday when he saw Celine casually swipe her hand across Haileys face , erasing the mark .
No one was more stunned than he was James hadnt returned yet , but when he did , the entire Lambert family would be in for a shock .
For years , the Lamberts had spared no effort in trying to find a way to remove the birthmark , but nothing had ever worked .
Yet now , it was completely gone .
བ འཇ ན བ བ Adam pressed his lips into a thin line and asked , How did yo d your birthmark disappear ? Celine wanted to stop Halley from speaking , but she blurted out , Its because Celine gave me this really bitter pill to eat .
Celine was speechless .
She silently cursed herself for not preparing a consistent story with Hailey beforehand .
The next second , she saw Adam lift his eyes .
Those sharp , hawk like eyes were locked onto her .
His gaze was calm yet piercing , as if peeling back layers to see straight through her.
Hailey , could you step outside for a minute ? he asked in a low voice .
Hailey nodded .
Okay .
Once Hailey left , Adam stepped into the dorm room and closed the door behind him .
His steady strides carried him closer to Celine , and with his Imposing presence , it felt as if the entire room was now cloaked in his shadow .
Where did you get that pill ? Celine tilted her face up to meet his gaze .
Im not telling you .
Adam was taken aback .
It was clear Celine didnt want to talk to him .
Without another word , she turned on her heal and was ready to leave .
However , before she could take a step forward , Adam grabbed her arm , stopping her in her tracks .
Forced to a halt , Celine frowned and started to struggle .
Mr.
Alvarez , let go of mel Show so the respect , or I wont go easy on you ! Her warning had barely left her lips when Adam suddenly tightened his grip and pulled her directly into his chest .
Celine looked up only to see the faintest hint of amusement on his face .
He let out a low , mocking chuckle as he gazed down at her .
You talk a big game .
First , you say youll teach my woman a lesson Now , youre threatening me ? Celine , you really think youre something , dont you ?
