Celine slowly regained consciousness. Her eyelids fluttered open, but the harsh glare of a white surgical light forced her to squint.
As a doctor, her instincts kicked in immediately. She knew exactly where she was. She was on an operating table.
The cold, hard surface pressed against her back, and she was surrounded by a group of doctors dressed in white coats.
One of the doctors twisted off the caps of several small vials and began drawing liquid into a long syringe.
"Administer the anesthesia immediately. We're proceeding with the abortion," the doctor instructed.
Abortion?
Ever since the attack at Robin's apartment, Celine had known these people were after her and the baby inside her.
She tried to move, but her body was weak. The blow to the back of her neck had been brutal. She could barely muster any strength.
A nurse hesitated. "Doctor, where's the patient's family? Shouldn't a family member be present for an abortion?"
The doctor scoffed. "You haven't heard? The patient's husband is Mr. Alvarez. He won't be coming today. He had already called earlier and ordered us to proceed with the surgery immediately. He wants this baby gone."
Another doctor sighed, glancing at Celine with pity. "You really picked the wrong people to mess with. Of all the people, you had to cross Mr. Alvarez and Ms. Carly. Everyone knows Ms. Carly is his one and only. Why did you go and offend Ms. Carly?
"Let me spell it out for you. This was all planned by Mr. Alvarez. First, he sent people to your dear best friend's house to lure you in. Then, the moment you walk in, you're caught and strapped on this operating table for an abortion."
Celine lay on the freezing steel table, feeling like she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
"Adam, how could you be this cruel?" she thought.
She had known he would do anything for Carly, but this was overboard. He kept proving her wrong over and over again.
"Let me go! Don't hurt my baby!" She struggled violently.
However, she was too weak. The two doctors easily overpowered her and threw her back onto the freezing table.
"We don't want to do this either, but we take orders from Mr. Alvarez. If you want someone to blame, blame him."
"No! Stop! Let me go!" Celine's eyes turned bloodshot, and soon, hot tears spilled down her cheeks.
"Adam… Why? I hate you!" she cursed inwardly.
…
Back in Jupiter Heights, Adam was reviewing a document in the study when suddenly, he slammed it shut.

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....
