The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 1005

Hailey smiled warmly at Jonah. "Mr. Pilsner, you're so young, yet instead of chasing wealth or flirting with other women, all you think about is getting married."

Jonah pulled her in tighter. "All I want is to marry you. Is that so wrong?"

Hailey laughed. "Not at all!"

Just then, a melodic ringtone broke the moment. Hailey's phone buzzed.

"Wait, I need to take this." She glanced at the screen. "It's Lester."

Jonah's eyes narrowed. He knew Lester well.

When it came to the men in Hailey's life, Jonah remembered every one of them better than anyone else.

Lester came from a privileged background. He was a respected professor committed to his academic pursuits.

As a wealthy heiress, Hailey was often surrounded by impressive men. Though Jonah was successful in his own right, he couldn't help but feel a little threatened by Lester.

There seemed to be too many men interested in Hailey.

"Just give me a second," Hailey said.

With that, she tapped the screen and answered the call. "Hello, Lester."

Lester's gentle voice came through without delay. "Hailey, have you been busy lately?"

"I've had a few things going on," she replied.

"Not long ago, you mentioned wanting to take a course at Aspenfield University. Do you still remember that?"

Hailey smacked her forehead, surprised she had completely forgotten. She hadn't expected Lester to remember still.

"I'm really sorry, Lester. It completely slipped my mind," she said.

Hailey's limbs were slender, so despite being pregnant, only her belly stood out. At five months, her bump was still small enough to be easily concealed by a loose dress.

Jonah gazed at her delicate profile. With her bright smile and fresh features, she truly resembled an unmarried young woman.

He reached out and gently pinched her cheek. "Alright, go for it. I support you."

Hailey leaned in and kissed his cheek. "Thank you, Mr. Pilsner. You're the best."

Jonah gave a helpless smile. Though he still wanted to ask more about Lester, he held his tongue, not wanting to dampen Hailey's mood.

He pulled her close and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Hailey nodded. "Yes, I am."

"I'll whip something up for us," Jonah said as he got up from the bed.
