The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 570

Ewan slammed the passenger door and marched over to the driver's side.

With a press of the gas, the sports car roared to life and shot off into the distance.

Left behind, Melody sat in stunned silence, feeling completely ignored—like she didn't even exist.

"Ewan! Ewan, where are you going?" she screamed. "I'm your girlfriend! Ewan!"

She felt her anger boil over at this.

…

30 minutes later, the Porsche screeched to a halt in front of a casino.

Hailey stepped out, her face set in a frown. "Ewan, why did you bring me here?"

"Do you know what this place is?" he asked.

Hailey nodded. "Of course. It's a casino. A place like this is nothing but trouble—I'm not going in."

"What a shame... your precious boyfriend Declan is inside."

Hailey froze, her breath catching in her throat.

She turned to him, disbelief flooding her eyes. "Ewan, stop making things up! There's no way Declan would be in a place like this!"

Ewan let out a laugh. "Hailey, I told you—you don't really know him. Come with me, and I'll show you exactly what kind of man he is."

Before she could protest, he grabbed her wrist and tugged her toward the casino doors.

The air inside was thick with smoke and noise, a chaotic mix of people from all walks of life. They crowded around the tables, their faces flushed with excitement as they gambled without a care.

Hailey loathed being here. As a sheltered young woman from a wealthy family, she had never set foot in such a place.

"Ewan, are you serious? There's no way Declan would be here. I'm leaving."

Declan took another drag from his cigarette, exhaling lazily. "And yet, here you are—empty-handed—leaving me with no choice. Debts don't just disappear… and you know what happens to those who don't pay."

The man shook his head frantically. "No! No, please, Declan—have mercy!"

Declan rose to his feet, his gaze shifting toward one of his men.

Without hesitation, the lackey seized the man's hand, slamming it onto the surface. The blade flashed before slicing downward in a swift, brutal arc.

A bloodcurdling scream tore through the air.

Hailey flinched, the sound stabbing into her ears like shards of glass.

Her gaze snapped to Declan. Blood spattered across his face, but he didn't so much as blink. With a stoic expression, he wiped it away with the back of his hand.

At that moment, Hailey barely recognized him.
