Page numbers differ between editions and printings, so there is no single page number for that line.
What I can tell you: the line "I ought to be thy Adam; but I am rather the fallen angel..." is spoken by the Creature in his narrative to Victor — the section in which he describes his education and confronts his maker (the passage where he appeals to Victor’s responsibility and later asks for a companion). In most modern single‑volume editions this appears in the middle of the book (commonly labelled part of the Creature’s narrative / “Chapter 10” or thereabouts), and in the original 1818 three‑volume edition it appears in Volume II.
If you tell me the edition (publisher/year or ISBN) or upload a photo of the title page, I can give the exact page number for that edition. Or you can quickly find it by searching an online text (for example Project Gutenberg’s Frankenstein) for the phrase "I ought to be thy Adam" — that will take you straight to the passage.
