Chapter 611 At Tate Manor, Celine was focused on preparing the antidote when the door suddenly swung open. A maid entered and said, "Celine, Mrs. Tate Senior requests your presence." What could Sonia possibly want with her? Without even looking up, Celine answered flatly, "I'm not going." The maid was taken aback. "What? How can you refuse? Mrs. Tate Senior specifically asked for you. This is highly disrespectful!" Celine let out a sharp laugh. The fact that a mere maid dared to lecture her only underscored how little the Tate family valued her.
"Letmake this clear. I'm here to create the antidote because they askedto, not because I chose to be here. Mrs. Tate Senior can ctoif she has something to discuss. I won't be going to her." "You" After seeing Celine's unrelenting attitude, the maid could only storm off in frustration.

Sonia's expression tightened. "Why?" "Mrs. Tate Senior, Celine is insufferably arrogant. She said that if you have something to discuss, you'll have to go to her-she won't be coming to you." Sonia froze.
"What should we do now, Mrs. Tate Senior?" the maid asked.
Sonia's expression was dark with worry. What more could she do? Her beloved son, Hayden, lay in a hospital bed, and the doctors had declared him to be in a vegetative state. She had no choice-Celine was her only hope.
"Fine, I'll go to Celine myself." Soon after, Sonia arrived at Celine's room. "Celine, I need to speak with you." Celine glanced up at her, a knowing smile playing at the corners of her lips. "Mrs. Tate Senior, what brings you here today?" Sonia opened her mouth to speak, but before she could get a word out, Celine interrupted her.
"Lettake a guess, Mrs. Tate Senior-your beloved son is in the hospital, and the situation doesn't look promising. You've chere to begto save him." Sonia stared at Celine, captivated by the brilliance in her eyes. They glimmered with an undeniable- intelligence, and their light was intense that it seemed to pierce right through Sonia's soul.
In that moment, she understood why men like Adam were so irresistibly drawn to Celine_her intellect was truly extraordinary.

Celine's long, delicate lashes fluttered slightly. She had wanted to treat Hayden back then, but Lucy had stopped her.
Though she hadn't been able to help him, the sight of Hayden's blood-soaked body made it painfully clear that his injuries were critical.
Sonia stepped closer to Celine, her eyes brimming with desperation as if m she were holding onto her last glimmer of hope. "Celine, you're Dr. C, the nation-renowned genius. You can save Hayden and bring him back, can't you?" A faint smile tugged at Celine's lips. "Yes, I can save him."
Sonia's face instantly lit up with relief. She grabbed Celine's hand, practically pleading "That's om Wonderful! Let's go to the hospital right now. Please, Celine, you have to save him!" However, Celine calmly pulled her sleeve out of Sonia's grasp, her voice as cold and composed as ever. "I can save Hayden, but why should I?" Sonia froze. "You-" "Saving someone always requires a reason, doesn't it?" Celine commented with an amused smile. "Hayden and I have no connection. Why should I waste my tand energy on him?" Undeterred, Sonia pressed on, "But Celine, Hayden is your uncle! If your father were still alive, he would have wanted you to save him!"
The mention of her father made Celine's gaze harden, a cold flask in her eyes. How dare Sonia play the family card now? Did she forget how her father died? Did she forget who was responsible for it? Celine's fingers curled into a fist for a moment, but she gradually relaxed them. "Fine. I'll save Hayden." Sonia felt her heart leap with relief and joy. Just moments ago, she feared Celine would refuse, but to her surprise, Celine had agreed.
