The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 429

Celine knew it was time for her to step into the spotlight.

The Tate family had caused her father's death, and it was about time for her to settle this blood debt they owed her.

And then there was Adam. He had been desperately searching for Dr. C, hadn't he? Fine, she'd tell him herself.

…

Meanwhile, in the CEO's office of Alvarez Group's headquarters, Adam sat at his desk going through documents.

The pen in his hand moved swiftly across the page as he signed his name in bold, decisive strokes.

Just then, Leo entered and spoke in a low voice. "Mr. Alvarez, there's news about Dr. C."

The pen in Adam's hand paused mid-stroke. He slowly looked up at Leo and said, "Go on."

"Sir, Dr. C's contact has just confirmed that Dr. C will be attending the banquet tonight. Dr. C has officially arrived in Mercity and has requested to meet you there."

Adam fell into deep thought. He had been searching for Dr. C for quite a long time. After multiple missed encounters and that scandal with a fake Dr. C, the real deal was finally here.

Tonight, he would see for himself who this legendary Dr. C was.

With a smirk, he answered, "Sure. We'll meet at the banquet tonight."

…

Adam arrived at the VIP ward.

That morning, Lucy had called, claiming that Carly's heart had been acting up again, and she needed Adam to accompany her.

The moment he entered the ward, he found Carly in a tantrum.

"Adam! What happened with you and Celine last night? Why were you with her? I know she must've seduced you! She deliberately bought a house across from yours just so she could keep tempting you!"

"Carly," Adam's deep voice interrupted her rant.

She turned to look at him.

"I was the one who went to find Celine last night," he said.

Adam knew his own type—he was drawn to intelligent, accomplished women with independent careers and strong personalities.

Celine was a genius, but she had become a housewife and hadn't worked in years. She didn't fit his type at all.

And yet… with her, everything felt different.

He didn't even know when it had started.

Carly clutched her chest, her face pale. "Adam, my heart hurts… The doctor said I can't handle stress. I don't want to hear things that make me upset."

Adam pressed his lips together for a moment. "Dr. C has arrived in Mercity."

Carly fell into a momentary daze, and then her eyes lit up with excitement.

"Is it true, Adam? The real Dr. C is finally here?"

Just then, Sonia, Lucy, and Tracy entered the ward, all looking giddy with anticipation.
