Carly cut Grace off. "So, you're saying I'm not as good as her!"
Grace hesitated. "I..."
Carly clenched both hands into fists at her sides. "That's what all of you think, isn't it? Celine is the nation-
renowned genius Dr. C! Celine is Linny! She's so
exceptional, while I'm a nobody. That's why all of you side with her. That's why you don't like me!"
Grace was startled by Carly's outburst. Right now, Carly's face was twisted with malice and jealousy. Her
features were contorted into something terrifying.
Bella shrank behind Grace. "Grandma, I'm scared."
Grace hugged Bella and looked at Carly as if she were seeing a stranger. "Carly, how could you think that? We
never disliked you just because you weren't as talented as Celine. But your jealousy has turned you bitter, and
now you've committed a crime. You've really disappointed me."
Carly's bloodshot eyes locked onto Grace. "Mrs. Alvarez, | don't need you to likeanymore because you're not
leaving here alive!"
Grace's face changed. "Carly, you would actually lay hands on me?"
Carly waved her hand. "Take them all down!"
The black-clad kidnappers immediately grabbed Grace and Bella.
Bella burst into frightened sobs. "Let go of me! Let go of Grandma! My mommy will be here soon! She's going to

Grace quickly reassured her, "Bella, don't be scared. Carly, think this through. | am Mrs. Alvarez. If you dare to
harm me, my son will never let you go!"
Carly gave Grace a sinister look. "Mrs. Alvarez, don't worry. Adam will never find out about this. And once | marry
him and becyour daughter-in-law, I'll make sure to visit your grave every year on All Souls' Day."
Grace's voice trembled with fury. "Carly, you're absolutely insane!"
To Carly, there was no reason for Grace or Bella to exist anymore. She ordered, "Get rid of them. | don't want to
see them again!"
"Yes, ma'am."
The kidnappers drew sharp knives and slowly closed in on Grace and Bella. Grace shouted, "Carly, you can't do
this! You've completely lost your mind!" Carly smirked. Anyone who stood in her way deserved to die.
Anything she wanted, she would take!
At that moment, a bang echoed.
The door to the dark room was kicked open with a deafening crash, and a gust of cold wind rushed in from
outside.
Carly's head whipped around. A squad of highly trained black-clad bodyguards stormed in, swiftly subduing the
kidnappers.
With a loud clang, the kidnappers" knives clattered to the floor.
Carly's
stared
urned deathly pale. She
in shock. "Who are
you people? How did you find this place? Stop! Stop right now!
Carly felt like she couldn't breathe. This place was extremely well-hidden. Her plan had been flawless. Who were
these people, and how did they get here?
Just then, a clear and elegant voice rang out. "Ms. Hampton, how are you?"
Carly instantly recognized that voice.
That voice was-Celine!
The next second, Celine's graceful, otherworldly figure stepped into view.
Celine was here!
