The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 452

Sonia and Lucy knew that tonight, Celine had come to declare war. Forcing Carly and Tracy to grovel to Celine's feet was just her way of making a statement. Now, it was only the beginning.

…

The banquet had finally ended. As Adam stepped outside, Sonia, Lucy, and Carly rushed over.

"Mr. Alvarez, are you really going to stand by and watch as Celine goes after us?"

Carly looked at Adam with teary eyes, her expression full of grievance, hoping he would comfort her.

However, Adam's expression was indifferent. Instead, he asked, "How exactly did Celine's father die? Who in your family was responsible?"

Sonia and Lucy fell silent at the same time.

Without another word, Adam got into the Rolls-Royce Cullinan as Leo pulled up. Then, the car drove off.

…

Tonight, a suffocating silence hung over Tate Manor. Sonia was sitting on the couch at that moment. With a sudden sweep of her arm, she sent everything on the coffee table crashing to the floor.

Priceless antique vases shattered into pieces. These were her most treasured possessions. Normally, everyone tiptoed around them, afraid to even touch them.

Now, the floor was a mess of broken ceramic, but no one dared to move. The maids huddled in the corners, holding their breath.

Everyone from the second and third households was present. Hayden, Lucy, and Carly were from the second, while Wayne, Hazel, and Tracy were from the third. Not one of them was absent.

Sonia was still furious even after smashing everything to the ground. She snapped, "Useless, all of you! Not a single one can compare to Celine. She grew up in the countryside, yet she's a genius from Haffard University and the legendary Dr. C.

"If she were my granddaughter, I would have ruled over all of Mercity by now. Now that she's trampling all over us, we can't even fight back. It's all because of your incompetence!"

Hayden and Wayne rushed back from the company as soon as they heard the shocking news—Celine was none other than the legendary Dr. C. Even now, they struggled to believe it.

Carly and Tracy were shocked.

Sonia's eyes gleamed with recollection as she continued, "It was pouring that night. Aaron died in his own room, fighting with everything he had.

"No matter how hard we held him down, he refused to go quietly. Even in his final moments, as the poison took effect, he kept calling Celine's name. He died with his eyes wide open."

All these years, Lucy, Hayden, and Wayne had never been able to forget that night.

Celine had asked them if they had ever had nightmares. Had they ever dreamed of Aaron returning as a vengeful ghost to claim their lives?

Wayne said, "Aaron adored Celine more than anyone. We thought throwing her into the countryside would be the end of it, that we could finally live in peace. We never thought she would come back to avenge him."

Hayden said, "If she really gets her revenge, our entire family will be ruined. There's no way out of this blood feud."
