The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 493

Hailey burst into tears of relief when she saw Mary and James. No one could understand what they had just been through. If they had been even a second later, Celine's unborn child would have been lost. The thought made Hailey's legs go weak with fear.

"Mrs. Alvarez Senior! Dad!"

Mary hurried into the operating room. When she saw Celine, her emotions overwhelmed her, and she grabbed Celine's hand. "Celine, it's me. I'm here!"

Celine's face was as pale as a sheet, completely devoid of color. She had been holding on through sheer willpower, but the moment she saw Mary, she finally let go of the tension weighing on her. She blinked her teary eyes, her pale lips trembling slightly as she said, "Grandma…"

"Yes, I'm here," Mary said, squeezing Celine's cold hand. "It's okay now. Don't be afraid. With Grandma here, no one dares touch you or your child!"

Celine nodded weakly, then closed her eyes and drifted into unconsciousness.

James quickly checked Celine's pulse. After a few seconds, he said, "She's fine. Both Dr. C and the baby are safe."

Mary's gaze turned icy as she looked at the black-clad kidnappers and the so-called doctor sprawled on the floor. "Take them all away. Interrogate them one by one. I want to know who's behind this! If anyone refuses to talk, they won't need to speak ever again," she firmly said.

Though Mary had long since retired from running the Alvarez family, she had once ruled with an iron grip. Although she was known for her kindness, her overwhelming authority crashed down like a mountain at this moment, making the kidnappers and doctor shudder in fear.

"Mrs. Alvarez Senior, we were just following orders…"

Before they could finish, they were dragged away. They would have their chance to talk—just not here.

Celine was transferred to a VIP room, where she was finally able to rest peacefully. Exhausted, she fell into a deep sleep.

Mary sat by her bedside, keeping watch. Soon, Leo rushed into the room. "Mrs. Alvarez Senior!"

Mary trembled with rage. "That ungrateful brat! He's still tangled up with Carly? I'm going to find him right now!"

Mary stormed out of the room.

In another VIP room, Carly was clinging to Adam, refusing to let him leave. "Adam, stay here with me tonight," she pleaded.

Lucy had also arrived, exchanging a meaningful glance with Carly. According to their calculations, Celine's baby should have already been dealt with. Still, to be safe, they decided to keep Adam occupied a little longer.

"Mr. Alvarez, Carly gets very clingy when her heart acts up. Please stay with her for a while," Lucy said, playing along.

Adam pursed his lips. For some reason, an unsettling feeling had been gnawing at him ever since he arrived at the hospital.
