Chapter 155 Celine had no idea what she was saying.

Adam looked at the ice cream in her hand, then at her pure, angelic face.

His voice was hoarse as he countered with a question, Eat what? Celines mind went blank.

She didnt understand what he was asking.

Her heart raced wildly.

Deciding to end the awkwardness, Celine said, Mr.

Alvarez, Im going to sleep now.

Lets end the call.

With that, she reached out and ended the video call.

Hailey, who was about to take a shower, noticed Celines flushed face.

Celine, why is your face so red? Celine touched her cheek..

Maybe its the heat.

Hailey, youd better go shower.

Then, Hailey went into the bathroom.

Left alone, Celine sat quietly, eating her ice cream.

Gradually, she calmed down.

Why had she panicked earlier? This morning, when she had asked him over the phone if he wanted her to repay him, he had hung up without hesitation.

So arrogant.

So dismissive.

But why hadnt he acted that way earlier? Deep down, Celine had hoped he would accept her offer of repayment.

That way, they could settle things and owe each other nothing.

Celine finished writing the medicinal soup recipe and sent it to Adam via WhatsApp.

Her Whatsapp contact list still had Adam saved as husband.

Adam didnt reply.

As always, he maintained his cold and distant demeanor.

Her chat history with him was filled with onesided messages.

It had always been her monologue.
