The press conference spiraled into chaos, with accusations flying at Celine from every direction.

Adams gaze was icecold, a flicker of exasperation crossing his otherwise impassive face.

Did Celine not realize this was like walking into the lions den? How reckless could she be to come here alone? What the hell? Nathan muttered under his breath.

He stepped forward, ready to shield Celine from the growing mob.

However, someone had already beat him to it.

Adam moved swiftly, his long strides cutting through the crowd.

Nathan was speechless.

What kind of wingman was he? What a way to read the room.

However, the chaotic room fell eerily silent.

Celine, surrounded by hostile faces, lifted her head.

Her clear, unwavering gaze swept over the crowd.

Though she didnt raise her voice, the quiet authority in her gaze commanded attention.

The sheer strength in her demeanor made everyone hold their breath.

Adam froze midstep.

He had never seen this side of her before.
