The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 682

Celine smiled. "Thank you, Mr. Hampton."

Although she didn't like Carly, Nigel was indeed a good man.

At that moment, a soft voice rang out. "Nigel, you're back?"

Celine turned her head and saw a woman in an evening gown. Her name was Anne Warwick, and she was in her 40s. However, she was a classic Josona beauty—gentle, delicate, and well-maintained.

Celine had never seen a woman by Nigel's side before. She had heard that Nigel and his ex-wife had divorced years ago.

Celine looked at Anne. "Mr. Hampton, who is this? How should I address her?"

Nigel glanced at Anne. "Ms. Tate, you can call her Ms. Warwick. That's what everyone here calls her."

Celine looked at Anne. Just now, when Nigel said "Ms. Warwick", a flicker of disappointment flashed through Anne's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Anne smiled. "Ms. Tate, nice to meet you."

Celine replied, "Nice to meet you too, Ms. Warwick."

Then, Anne turned to Nigel. "Nigel, why were you abroad for so long this time?"

Nigel pressed his thin lips together. "I found Carly's mother."

Celine was stunned. She had heard that Carly's mother was dead, but now she had suddenly reappeared.

Anne's expression changed drastically. "Nigel, Fiona isn't dead?"

He replied, "She's not dead. She's been in a coma all these years. Now, she's woken up. I've already told her about Carly. She'll be returning in a few days to see her daughter."

Anne's expression immediately grew complicated. After a moment, she quickly said, "Nigel, Fiona misunderstood our relationship back then. Now that she's coming back, you should explain things to her properly. Maybe the two of you can rekindle your old flame."

Nigel's voice turned icy. "She was the one who wanted the divorce. She was the one who left. There's no chance for us!"

Celine stayed at the Hampton family residence. She had to keep an eye on Carly.

Right now, the most anxious one wasn't Celine, but Carly. Bella and Grace were still in her hands. Her subordinates couldn't reach her, so they were bound to panic. And when they panicked, they would slip up.

Carly stayed in her room when her phone rang again—it was the kidnappers.

"Hello, Ms. Hampton!"

Carly was extremely tense. She deliberately lowered her voice and scolded, "Why are you calling me again? I told you, I'll contact you. Don't call me! My dad is home right now. If he hears anything, we're all done for!"

Not only had her father come home, but Celine had also shown up. Carly was on edge in her own house.

The man in black reassured her, "Ms. Hampton, don't worry. These calls are all secured. As long as you're careful, there won't be any problems.

"But… Ms. Hampton, you were supposed to come today. Why didn't you? Are you standing us up?"
