The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 1007

Jonah pulled his million-dollar car up to the main gates of Aspenfield University.

Dressed in a black suit and crisp white shirt, he carried the effortless polish of a man in charge and had the kind of presence that drew eyes the moment he stepped into view.

Before long, a few ladies glanced his way, their interest obvious.

Jonah ignored the looks that he had seen plenty of times before. Once Hailey was out of sight, he turned back to his car and got in, ready to leave.

Just then, a knock tapped against the glass.

Jonah slowly rolled down the window. A pretty college student stood outside, her eyes bright as she gave him a sweet smile.

"Hello there," she said.

Jonah's face stayed unreadable as he replied, "Is there anything you need?"

She gathered her courage and asked, "Hi, could I get your WhatsApp?"

She wanted to add Jonah on WhatsApp.

Jonah's expression didn't change. "Sorry. If my wife found out, she wouldn't be happy."

Color drained from her face, and she quickly said, "Oh, my bad. I'm sorry to bother you."

Then, he raised the window and drove off.

The student stayed where she was, looking disappointed. Another woman hurried over and asked, "So, did you get his WhatsApp?"

"No. He said he's married."

"What a pity. The good ones are always taken. Come on, we'll be late for class!"

…

Soon, Jonah arrived at the office.

He had been spending most of his time with Hailey lately, which meant plenty of work had piled up.

Before he knew it, noon had rolled around.

Jeremy walked in and said, "Mr. Pilsner, the chef is here with the lunch he has prepared for you."

As the door opened, the chef walked in with two assistants, carrying an impressive spread.

"Mr. Pilsner, it's time for lunch," the chef said.

The message was successfully sent.

Jonah waited for Hailey to reply.

He kept waiting, but there was still no response from her.

The message went unanswered.

Then, Jonah sent another message. "Are you busy? If you are, I won't bother you."

She still hadn't said yes to his proposal, so he was actually worried about it.

However, he didn't want her to feel concerned, so he kept his emotions in check.

That message stayed unanswered too.

Jonah turned to Jeremy and called out, "Jeremy."

Jeremy responded, "Yes, Mr. Pilsner?"

Jonah said, "I want to ask you something."
