The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 479

"Ms. Tate, are you saying Atrion Root and Vitali Bloom together?" Joseph asked.

"Yes, Dr. Warren."

"Ms. Tate, are you pregnant?"

Pregnant? The word left Carly stunned in place for a moment. She clutched her phone in shock and asked, "Dr. Warren, what are you talking about?"

"Ms. Tate, Atrion Root and Vitalis Bloom are used to brew pregnancy-stabilizing tonic."

Pregnancy-stabilizing tonic? Celine was using pregnancy-stabilizing herbs?

Was she pregnant?

Carly's mind went blank.

She had never even considered the possibility that Celine might be pregnant. She knew that Celine and Adam had been together, but Adam never wanted children. If there was one thing certain, it was that he would never allow Celine to get pregnant with his child.

But now, Celine was pregnant!

Carly stumbled several steps back, barely managing to steady herself against the wall.

Celine was pregnant, but who was the father? Adam?

No, it might be Perry's child.

But a woman's intuition was rarely wrong. Deep down, Carly felt it—Celine was carrying Adam's child.

What should she do now?

Panic surged through her.

…

Carly rushed home as fast as she could.

Lucy noticed her pale face and immediately sat beside her. "Carly, what's wrong? What happened? Your hands are ice-cold!"

Lucy took Carly's hand and found that they had lost all warmth.

"Mom, how can I stay calm? I just barely secured Adam's loyalty by stealing the emerald necklace from Celine! And now she's suddenly pregnant? I don't want to lose everything! I don't want to lose Adam!"

Lucy grabbed Carly's shoulders. "Carly, does anyone else know that Celine is pregnant?"

Carly shook her head. "She's definitely keeping it a secret."

A sharp glint flashed in Lucy's eyes as she quickly formulated a plan. "Carly, don't worry. Celine's child belongs to Perry!"

"Mom, do you really believe that? A woman's intuition is rarely wrong. I know this child is Adam's!"

"No, Carly. Celine's child is Perry's."

Carly hesitated for a moment.

Then, Lucy smirked and suddenly laughed. "It doesn't matter who the child really belongs to. What matters is that Mr. Alvarez believes it belongs to Perry. Isn't that enough?"

Realization dawned on Carly, and her eyes lit up with anticipation. "Mom, you're a genius!"

"Now, go and tell Mr. Alvarez about Celine's pregnancy. We can use him to get rid of that child."
