The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 648

Hailey shook her head. "No. Three years ago, he called me and asked me to meet him, but when I got there, he was nowhere to be found. After that, I never saw him again."

She let out a self-deprecating chuckle. "He was already married by then. I never saw Stella again, either. Maybe he took her somewhere else to settle down."

Celine's heart ached for Hailey. "Are you okay?"

Hailey forced a small smile. "I'm fine, Celine. Declan and I are over. I'm not wasting another tear on him."

Celine nodded. "That's good to hear. Come on, let's eat."

Just then, Carly and Melody entered the restaurant.

After their embarrassment at the Apex Gala, the two had met up to vent their frustration.

Melody huffed angrily. "It's all because of that bitch Celine! Now, the entire social circle is laughing at us. Even the rich guys I was talking to won't give me the time of day. They've all blocked me!"

Melody had always juggled multiple wealthy men, keeping her options open. But now, her whole game was falling apart.

Carly's expression darkened. "Calm down, Melody. We'll figure out a way to deal with Celine."

At that moment, Melody froze. "Carly, look! It's Celine and Hailey!"

Carly turned and spotted them, along with the little girl sitting beside Celine.

Carly narrowed her eyes. "Is that Celine's daughter? She's already this big?"

Celine had completely disappeared for the past three years. This was the first time she had stepped back into the spotlight, and she had brought her daughter with her. Carly and Melody were both shocked.

Melody sneered. "Of course, that's her kid. She's just as pretty as her mother—another little temptress in the making."

Carly's heart sank. "I didn't expect Celine to actually bring her daughter to the Capitol. That child is Adam's flesh and blood. What if he finds out?"

She would turn her back into the laughingstock she once was. Once Hailey was disgraced, Ewan would finally stop chasing her.

…

Meanwhile, Celine, Hailey, and Bella were enjoying their meal when Hailey stood up. "Celine, I'm heading to the restroom for a moment."

Celine nodded. "Alright."

Hailey picked up her phone and made her way down the corridor toward the restroom.

As she walked, two men dressed in black appeared ahead of her.

They had a dangerous air about them.

Before she could react, one of them grabbed her arm.
