The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 688

Carly could tell that Grace's fondness for Celine had skyrocketed

Carly was furious. Her face darkened as she gritted her teeth and snapped, "Are you all useless? You can't even grab a little brat?"

The black-clad kidnappers immediately reached for Bella.

Terrified, Bella screamed, "Don't take me! Grandma, help me!"

Grace resisted with all her strength, shielding Bella behind her. She fixed her gaze on Carly. "Who exactly are you? You know me, don't you?"

Carly froze.

Grace scrutinized her suspiciously from head to toe. "You knew I was in a wheelchair all this time. Otherwise, you wouldn't have questioned my legs. You are someone I know, aren't you? And judging by your figure, you look like a woman!"

Grace was incredibly sharp, having been the matriarch of the Alvarez family for so many years. Her piercing eyes continued to examine Carly with precision.

Carly felt a pang of guilt. If Grace recognized her, it would be a disaster, so she decided to go all in.

"If this old hag is so determined to protect that little brat, then let's send them both on their way!"

The two black-clad kidnappers nodded. "Yes, ma'am."

Carly cast a final, cold glance at Grace and Bella. "As for who I am, you'll find out when you reach the afterlife."

With a snort, Carly turned to leave.

Carly instinctively stopped in her tracks and turned back.

Grace's expression turned cold. "What was your plan? Were you planning to hurt Celine's daughter? Carly, have you lost your mind? Bella is a child—a life! What you're doing is illegal!"

Carly snapped, "Celine is the one who got in my way! There's no room in this world for both of us. Either she goes, or I do!"

Grace's heart sank. "Carly, Celine has been away from the Capitol for the past three years. She hasn't competed with you at all! You're already the heiress of the wealthiest family.

"I even stood by your side, pushing for Adam to marry you. What more do you want? How could you do something like this?"

Carly glanced at Grace. "Mrs. Alvarez, you've already taken Celine's side, haven't you?"

Grace hesitated. "I…"

"Look at yourself! Every word that comes out of your mouth is in favor of Celine! All of you are the same!"

"Carly, it's not about taking sides. It's about the fact that Celine would never sink this low…"
