Hailey froze.
Declan was at her door? Why did he come to see her?
"Declan, just go. You're married now. I don't want to get involved with a married man. That's my boundary," she shot back.
"Hailey, the marriage isn't what you think."
Her fingers trembled slightly. What did he mean? If it wasn't what she thought, then what was it supposed to be?
"Hailey, please give me another chance to explain everything." Declan pleaded in a low voice.
Hailey tightened her grip on her phone. To be honest, her heart wavered.
Was there more to his marriage with Stella than she knew?
She still didn't understand why he had suddenly married her.
Deep down, she still had feelings for him.
Clutching her phone, she said, "Alright, I'll come out now."
She hung up and walked toward the door.
While standing at the door, Declan's eyes lit up with excitement. The moment Hailey stepped out, he would finally have the chance to explain everything.
Everything would be okay.
Just then, a black van sped toward him. The doors burst open, and two towering men in black suits jumped out.
Before Declan could react, they grabbed him.
Looking at them, Declan asked, "Who are you?"
"We're here to kill you!"
Declan struggled, but the moment he moved, pain shot through his abdomen. Blood seeped from his wound.
The men tightened their grip and hauled him into the van.
When Declan saw Hailey stepping outside from the window, he slammed his hand against the glass. "Hailey! Hailey!"
A sharp, searing pain tore through his chest. As he looked down, a gleaming blade had pierced straight through his heart.
"Hailey, it's always been me. Who else were you expecting?" he asked with a smile.
Hailey glanced around again, still searching for Declan's tall, familiar figure. However, he was nowhere to be found.
So he never came.
Was this all a joke to him? Was he tricking her? How could he do this to her?
Ewan stepped forward and took Hailey's hand. "Hailey, are you waiting for Declan? He's already married. Are you still clinging to the idea of being with a man who's already married?"
"I'm not," Hailey replied.
"Hailey, there's no future for you and Declan. I really like you, so could you give me a chance? Let's be together," Ewan confessed his feelings with deep sincerity as he gazed at her.
Hailey pulled her hand from his grasp. "Ewan, how many times do I have to say it? I'm not going to be with you, and I don't have feelings for you anymore!"
With that, she turned and went back into the house.
Ewan stood frozen in place, slowly clenching his fists.
Did Hailey still have feelings for Declan?

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....
