Chapter 489
Leo turned back and looked at Adam. โMr. Alvarez, do you have any other instructions?โ
Adam still felt uneasy, a lingering sense that something bad was happening. He pressed his thin lips together. โGo check on Celineโโ
Before Adam could finish his sentence, Carly suddenly cried out, โOw!โ
Adam immediately stood up. โCarly, whatโs wrong?โ
โAdam, my heart hurts.โ Carlyโs body went weak, and she collapsed directly into Adamโs arms.
Leo stepped forward. โMr. Alvarezโโ
Carly kept her eyes on Leo. Seeing that he was about to speak again, she quickly reached up and wrapped her arms around Adamโs neck. โAdam, my heart really hurts. Hurry and take me to the hospital.โ
She clutched her chest. โItโs so painful. I can barely breathe.โ
Without hesitation, Adam scooped her up into his arms. โCarly, Iโll take you to the hospital right now.โ
He carried Carly out the door.
Meanwhile, Hailey had arrived at Robinโs apartment. She raised her hand, about to knock, but before she could, the door swung open on its own.
Hailey was out of breath from rushing over. She hurried inside. โCeline! Robin! Celine, Robin, where are you?โ
The apartment was eerily quiet. The floor was a mess, but neither Celine nor Robin was anywhere in sight. A deep sense of unease settled in Haileyโs chest. Celine had arrived before her, so where was she now? And where was Robin?
Hailey pushed open the bedroom door, and her eyes widened. Robin was lying unconscious on the floor.
She rushed over, kneeling beside her. โRobin! What happened? Wake up, Robin!โ
Robinโs eyelids fluttered open. โHaileyโฆ hurry up and save Celineโฆโ
โWhat happened to Celine?โ
โSomeone took her away. They want to kill the baby inside herโฆโ
Hailey gasped. โRobin, who are those people? Where did they take Celine?โ
Robinโs eyes shut again, and she slipped back into unconsciousness.
Panic surged through Hailey. She fumbled for her phone and immediately dialed Adamโs number. The ringtone rang out over and over, but no one picked up.
Her heart pounded as she yelled into the phone. โAdam, pick up! Celineโs in trouble! Her baby is in danger! Adam, answer the phone!โ
But all she got was a cold, mechanical voice. โSorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later.โ
Adam wasnโt answering. Hailey was on the verge of losing it. Celine and her baby were in danger, and Adam wasnโt even picking up his phone.
She tried again. โAdam, the baby in Celineโs belly is yours! If something happens to her and the child, youโll regret it for the rest of your life! Pick up the damn phone! Where the hell are you?โ
Still, Adam didnโt answer. The cold, mechanical female voice came from the other end again. โSorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later.โ
