Nigel looked at Celine and frowned unhappily. "Celine, you're being impudent!"
Everyone knew that Fiona was a thorn in Nigel's heart. No one dared to touch on that subject. Yet, not only did
Celine bring it up, she even mocked him. This woman was really bold.
Celine asked, "Mr. Hampton, did | say something wrong?"
Nigel was silent for a moment. "Nothing happened between Anne and me!"
"If nothing happened, then why did Mrs. Hampton misunderstood?"
"That's because she's petty and jealous."
"Mr. Hampton, you're really something. Whenever there's a problem, it's always because Mrs. Hampton is petty
and jealous. If no other women were around you, how could Mrs. Hampton even be petty and jealous?
"In other words, if you already knew Mrs. Hampton was petty and jealous, then why did you still keep other
women around?"
Nigel was left speechless.
In the past, Fiona would make a scene, giving him a headache. Now, with Celine here, her sharp tongue left him
completely defenseless.
"Ms. Tate, this is a private matter between my wife and me. It has nothing to do with you. | advise you to mind
your own business."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hampton. Then, | won't say anything more. I'll take my leave."

Celine turned to walk out, but suddenly, something cto mind. She looked back and added, "Oh, right, Mr.
Hampton, | think I should correct you on something. Mrs. Hampton is now your ex-wife, so this isn't really your
family business anymore, is it?"
"Get out!"
At that moment, Anne's voice suddenly rang from outside. "Adam, you can't barge into Nigel's study!"
Soon, a deep and magnetic male voice followed. "Where is Celine? | heard she cto the Hampton residence,
right? Is she in Mr. Hampton's study right now?" Adam hesitated. "Adam, I..."
"Ms. Warwick, please step aside. | need to see Celine!"
"Adam, this is Mr. Hampton's study. How about this? How about this? Wait outside for a moment, and I'll go in
and let him know—"
"There's no need for that!"
The study door creaked open, and a tall, handsfigure appeared at the doorway.
Nigel looked up at the uninvited guest, Adam, frowning.
Adam strode in with his long legs,
and walked up to Celine. "Celine, why
did you leave so suddenly without telling me? Why did you cto Mr. Hampton's place?" fo
Celine hadn't expected Adam to catch up so quickly. "Mr. Alvarez, | was just visiting Mr. Hampton as a guest."
Adam pressed his lips together in displeasure. "You cas a guest, yet you ended up in Mr. Hampton's study?
What exactly is your o relationship with Mr. Hampton?"

Adam glanced at Nigel. "How would | know what's going on in your mind? Aren't
