The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 1047

Once Jonah and Hailey had left, the rest of the students dispersed.

Consumed by embarrassment, Rebecca tried to salvage the situation. "Hold on! It's not what you think—"

However, her words fell on deaf ears.

"Rebecca, there's no need to explain. We've got things to take care of. See you around."

One by one, they walked off, leaving Rebecca burning with anger.

Her hands balled into fists, and she gritted her teeth.

Meanwhile, Olivia stayed by her side. All of a sudden, Rebecca grabbed her sleeve. "Olivia, don't you think Hailey and Mr. Pilsner really hate me? Why else would they embarrass me like that?"

Olivia met Rebecca's gaze. "Rebecca, you didn't go into Mr. Pilsner's room on purpose, did you?"

Rebecca felt her heart sink. Even Olivia was starting to doubt her.

"What do you mean by that? Olivia, are you starting to suspect me? Do you really think I'd do something like that?" Rebecca replied.

Olivia's brows furrowed. "I—"

"If everyone's going to question me, then maybe I should just leave. I know I don't have money like the rest of you, and I can tell you all look down on me. Fine, I'll go. Maybe it's better if I'm dead!"

As she turned to walk away, Olivia grabbed her arm. "Rebecca, please don't overreact. That's not what I meant at all. I'm not doubting you."

Rebecca's eyes welled with tears. "Olivia, please tell me you're not lying. Are you sure you don't suspect me at all?"

Olivia reached up to wipe Rebecca's tears. "Rebecca, you were the one who saved me that night. You're a genuinely good person. There's no way you'd go after someone else's fiance. I trust you."

Rebecca rushed forward and hugged Olivia tightly. "Olivia, you're the only one who still believes in me. You're all I have left!"

Olivia gently stroked Rebecca's back. "I'll always be your friend, Rebecca. Don't cry."

Hailey leaned in slightly. "So… Mr. Pilsner, you came all this way just to stand up for me, didn't you?"

Jonah gently pinched her cheek. "You're my wife. If I don't stand up for you, who will? As long as I'm here, no one will dare to bully you or our baby."

Hailey felt a rush of warmth and gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Pilsner."

Jonah pulled her closer into his arms. "I might be home a bit late tonight. Don't stay up for me. Get some rest."

"Do you have business to attend to?" Hailey asked.

Jonah nodded. "I'm meeting with a major client for dinner. I'll try to be back as soon as I can."

"By the way… how's the situation with Olivia? Have you found anything yet?" Hailey added.

"There's been some progress. It'll all be sorted out soon."
