Chapter b175 /b

Adam’s face was already dark, but when he saw how she struggled, pushing against his waist with her pale knees, his expression grew even more ominous

“Willie, I saw someone on this way!” a voice called out.

Willie Dougherty and his men had barrived/b. Adam recognized him immediately. Willie bwas /bsecond inmand in the underworld, and his hands were stained with blood

Willie was here for an affair, band /bCeline had caught him in the act. There was no way he would let her leave this situation unscathed.

In the criminal world, there were rules. The ck and white forces didn’t mix. Adam didn’t want to stir up trouble, but things were rapidly spiraling out of control.

As Willie and his bodyguards approached, one of them pointed in their direction. “It’s them!”

bAdam /bdidn’t waste any time. He pulled Celine toward him and kissed her hard on the lips.

Celine knew they were near. Before she could react, darkness enveloped her bas /bAdam’s lips pressed against hers with ban /bintensity that left no room for resistance. The kiss was almost bbrutal/b, filled with frustration and raw emotion as if he was releasing some pent–up an

anger.

She instinctively pushed against his chest, trying to break free, but Adam’s low voice stopped her. “bDo /byou want to die?”

She didn’t want that, but she also didn’t want this. “It hurts

Willie’s eyes gleamed with amusement. “I didn’t expect to find bMr. /bAlvarez here, enjoying a little private time with a woman.”

Although he couldn’t see Celine’s face, the sight of her slender arm, pale and smooth, was enough to bspark /bbhis /binterest. She had to be special it Adam bwas /binterested

Willie’s expression Erew lecherous. He couldn’t wait to see Celine’s bface/b.

One of the bodyguards whispered, “Willie, bthat /bperson definitely went in that direction. We should follow.”

“Let’s go,” Willie saidb, /bleading his men away.

As their footsteps receded, Celine let out a relieved sigh. She pushed Adam away with all her strength. “They’re gone.”

Adam reluctantly pulled away from her lips. “So, once they’re gone, you push me baway/b? You’re so pragmatic, Celine.

Though Celine was unsure how Adam had ended up hereb, /bshe offered a sincere thank you. “Mr. Alvarez, thank you bfor /bhelping me

She tried to step away, but Adam blocked bher/bb, /btrapping her against the

His gaze traveled slowly down her bikini–d body, and she instinctively raised her hand to cover herself.

“Mr. Alvarez, where are you lookdag?” she asked

Adam’s lips naled into a smirk “Didn’t byou /bwear this to get attention? Now that you’ve caught my beye/b, isn’t that exactly what you wanted? “Are you bserious/b?” Celine snapped, narrowing her eyes in frustration. This outfit bwas /bbought by Mr. Lynch, and I only wear it for him!”
