Reaping what she had sowed? No, there was no way Carly would accept that.
Adam didn't spare Carly another glance as he turned and walked away.
Just like that, he was gone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo... she could not let him go! Carly collapsed on the ground, crying. "Adam, don't go! Why are you doing this to me? Ever since you married Celine, you've changed. The truth is, you loved her all along. Now that you know she was the girl from all those years ago, you can't wait to abandon me. You can't do this to me!" No matter how much she screamed, Adam never looked back. She couldn't even get a single glance from him. Leo looked down at her. "Ms. Tate, Mr. Alvarez is right. You are reaping what you sowed." Carly lifted her head, her face twisted with resentment. She knew Leo had always favored Celine. He had always liked her.
She clenched her fists. "Why? Why does everyone like Celine? What does she have that I don't?" Leo responded calmly, "Ms. Tate, that's the wrong question. You shouldn't be asking what she has that you don't. There's nothing about you that can compare to her." Carly dug her nails into her palms. The humiliation burned deep.
Even Leo left the room.
Everyone had left.
Now, she was all alone in the dark room. Her swollen face stung from the slaps, and her mouth was filled with the taste of blood. The bruises on her body ached, the pain from the beating making her feel as if her body was falling apart.
Once, Adam had placed her on a pedestal. Now, he had cast her into hell. She refused to accept this outcome. She was terrified. She didn't know what her parents and grandmother were doing, but she was sure they would cto her rescue.
The three-day deadline given to the Tate family quickly arrived. Today, at Aaron's gravesite, they would have to confess their crimes.
Perry, Hailey, and Robin arrived early at Celine's condominium unit.

"Mr. Alvarez, what are you doing here?" Perry greeted him first.
Adam's gaze was fixed on Celine. "Celine, I'm going to the cemetery too. I'll drive you there." Perry interjected, "That won't be necessary, Mr. Alvarez. I have a car. Celine can ride with me." Adam didn't budge, and his eyes remained on her. "Celine, Carly is in my hands. I also have unfinished business with the Tate family. You should ride with me." Celine considered this for a moment and then said, "Perry, I'll go with Mr. Alvarez." Perry shrugged, then looked at Adam and chuckled. "Alright, Mr. Alvarez. You win." Hailey added, "In that case, I'll join Celine in Mr. Alvarez's car." Robin nodded. "Alright. I'll go with Mr. Marshall. Let's not waste any more tand hurry to the cemetery." Celine nodded. "Let's go." Two luxury cars drove toward the cemetery.
Adam was in the driver's seat, his hands steady on the Ady on the wheek celine! and Hailey sat in the back.

She was locked away, completely cut off from the outside world. The fear and uncertainty from that was the worst kind of torment.
Adam knew his stuff when it cto making someone suffer.
