Unfortunately, Olivia was right beside Rebecca. How could she possibly get a message to Jonah without giving herself away?
"Rebecca, let's hurry and grab a cab! We can't waste any time!" Olivia said.
With that, she stepped up to the curb and tried to flag one down.
Just as anxiety started to creep over Rebecca, a ball rolled to her feet. A little girl came running up. "Hey, miss, this is my ball," she said.
Rebecca's heart lifted. In the middle of her worry, a godsend had arrived. Rebecca realized she could use this girl to her advantage.
An idea formed in her mind. Olivia was ahead, completely unaware of what was happening behind her. This was the perfect opportunity.
Rebecca crouched down and picked up the ball. "Hey, sweetheart, is this yours?"
The girl nodded. "Yes, miss. I accidentally kicked it to your feet just now. Can you give it back?"
Rebecca smiled. "Of course I can return it… but…" Her voice dropped to a whisper. "Can you do me a small favor?"
"What favor?" the girl asked.
Leaning closer, Rebecca whispered into her ear, "Can you help me make a phone call?"
"A phone call?"
Rebecca immediately wore a pitiful expression. "Sweetheart, I'm having some trouble right now and could really use your help. You're a good kid, aren't you?"
"Of course I am," the girl said.
"Good kids like you like to help others, don't they? I'm in a bit of a predicament. If you help me make this call, I'll be safe."
The girl nodded innocently. "Sure thing."

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....
