Rebecca laughed. "Hailey, it seems you haven't read the news yet. I suggest you take a look."
Hailey's brow furrowed. "Rebecca, haven't your past mistakes taught you anything? People who spread nothing but harm are bound to face consequences."
Rebecca remained unshaken. "Consequences? I don't believe in them. All I know is I refuse to lose. I'll make sure you never find peace."
The call ended abruptly with two sharp beeps. Rebecca had already hung up.
With her phone in hand, Hailey wasted no time checking the news.
She was eager to uncover what schemes Rebecca had cooked up this time.
Much to her surprise, she didn't have to look far. Jonah's name dominated the headlines, entangled in the rumors of a scandalous love affair.
As Hailey opened the article, Rebecca's image appeared. Suddenly, everything about last night clicked into place.
Jonah and Rebecca had been at the same club. Through tears, Rebecca had accused Jonah of attempted assault—a story that was now splashed across every news outlet.
Hailey's frown deepened, shocked by the storm that had erupted.
Without a second thought, she dialed Jonah's number.
Jonah, still in his office, quickly picked up the phone. "Hello, honey, you're awake."
When she heard his voice, Hailey felt a wave of relief. "Yes, I'm up, Mr. Pilsner. I'm having breakfast. Have you eaten yet?"
Since Jonah hadn't brought up the scandal, she chose not to mention it.
"I just ate," Jonah replied.
"Are you working now?" Hailey asked.
"Yes," he said. "I've got an important meeting soon, so I won't be able to stay on the phone."
Hailey smiled. "That's fine. Focus on your meeting."
They ended the call shortly after. Hailey put her phone down and continued eating.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
Such a wack writer....
And now we're onto another sets of characters that weren't included from the beginning....
Nathan and Michelle???...
Thought Celine got pregnant before Hailey…..how come Celine is 3 months and Hailey 7?...
if there is already a surveillance video as evidence for the poisoning of Hailey, why go all the trouble of pretending? Celine is also pregnant right? What is happening to them, and what about Adam's headaches ......
Why is this writer like this! Seems it’s going to be a never ending story!!! Rebecca or Melody, why is she here again!!! Don’t these female characters move on!!! Goshhhhh...
A man with a team of invisible bodyguards that only appear on orders and disappear in time of troubles. Hmm😆🤏...
When will Hailey show that she is Adam's cousin and be ruthless? Joanne needs to be put in her place and realize Jonah does not want her. Ewan is just as bad as she is. Hailey needs to get help from Celine or Adam if she doesn't want Jonah to find out what's happening....
If the focus has to go on other characters in the book, at least make it more interesting! They were separated for three years, and still having love rivals! Especially one from the past!!! Why can’t Ewan and Joanne move in together and move on!!...
Imagine the long read if they decide to switch back to Adam and Celine. Not reading this with the same enthusiasm from the beginning....
