She stole Celine's mother, her family, and her place. What more does she want? Why does she still want to harm Dr. C?" "Speople are just born rotten." Carly felt her face burn with humiliation as the words cut deep. She realized too late-Celine had lured her into a trap she couldn't escape.

Lucy's words died in her throat.
Celine turned back to Carly. "Carly, you only get one chance. I'm giving you that chance now. Are you going to kneel and begor not?" Carly refused to kneel. In her eyes, Celine was nothing but a vile woman. Why should she kneel to her? Carly turned to Adam, pleading, "Adam, I won't kneel to Celine. She's going too far. Please, help me!"
