VeryNovelChapter 742 Nigel called out, "Adam!" Adam stopped in his tracks. "Mr. Hampton, is there something else?" Nigel said, "Since you don't want to marry my daughter, I won't force you. But we signed a marriage contract when the Hampton and Alvarez families arranged this engagement. Bring it toand tear it up, and our families will officially call off the engagement." "Alright," Adam replied without hesitation and left. Carly's face turned pale. "Adam!" She turned to her parents in a panic.

"That's right. Adam has never liked our daughter." Fiona frowned. "Then who does he like? From the way he acted just now, it's clear there's someone else." Carly clenched her fists. "Mom, don't you know? Adam likes Celine!" ---- Fiona froze. Nigel nodded.
"Yes, they developed feelings for each other back in Mercity." Fiona hadn't expected this, but when she thought about it, a smart and elegant girl like Celine was indeed easy to admire. It wasn't completely surprising. On the other hand, Carly was livid. "Mom, you have to help me! I want to marry Adam. I must marry him!" Fiona sighed and tried to reason with her. "Carly, Mr. Alvarez likes Celine, and I can understand why. She's a wonderful girl and deserves his love.
Since they have feelings for each other, we should respect that and end the engagement." Carly widened her eyes in disbelief. "Mom, what are you saying? Adam is calling off our engagement, and instead of standing by me, you're siding with Celine? She's not even your real daughter!" "Carly, Celine-" Fiona began. "Celine, Celine! That's all you ever care about! Who's your real daughter here, huh?" Carly questioned. "Celine is a homewrecker! She seduced Adam! She must've lured him into bed!" Fiona's expression darkened. "Carly!" Carly stiffened. Fiona had never been overly affectionate ---- toward her since returning, but she had never looked at her with such coldness before. Fiona looked at Carly and firmly reprimanded, "How can you say such things about Celine? Where is your dignity? Do you think you can just throw out accusations like that and ruin someone's reputation?" Nigel stood beside Fiona. "Carly, you've gone too far.
Celine is not that kind of person." Carly looked at her parents standing together, and a wave of despair crashed over her. Blood was thicker than water. They both cared about Celine more than her. After all, she was just an outsider. Carly sighed. "Mom, Dad, what am I supposed to do now? Adam wants to break off the engagement. Do you expectto just accept this humiliation?" "Carly, forcing a relationship will only lead to misery. Ican tell that Adam truly doesn't love you. Let it go.
There are plenty of exceptional young men in the capital. I'll find you someone who actually cares about you," Nigel said. "That's right, Carly," Fiona added. "Listen to your father. Let Adam go. Marrying someone who doesn't love you would only lead to misery." Both Nigel and Fiona had made their stance clear. They had accepted the annulment. ---- However, Carly refused to accept it. "No! I won't! Do you think there's another man like Adam in the Capitol ? He's the only one worthy of me! If I can't have him, then no one else can!" With that, she stormed off. "Carly!" Fiona called after her, but Carly was already gone.
