Nigel looked at Carly, unable to hide his disappointment. "Carly, shouldn't you be punished? How could you do something like this?"
He had always known that Carly was a little spoiled and scheming, but when Celine told him she had hired someone to commit a kidnapping, he refused to believe it. He couldn't accept that his own daughter could be so fundamentally cruel.
Nigel was the head of a prominent family, and Fiona came from a prestigious lineage. They were both from powerful backgrounds, so how could they have a daughter like Carly?
His disappointment ran deep.
However, Carly didn't seem to realize the gravity of her actions. Feeling wronged, she argued, "Dad, how could you strike me in front of others? This will just make Celine laugh at me! I'm your daughter, yet you always side with outsiders!"
With that, Carly turned to storm off.
The bodyguards blocked her way, and Celine's voice came from behind her. "Ms. Hampton, did I say you could leave?"
Adam coldly added, "Carly, you kidnapped Bella and my mom, and now we have all the proof. Do you really think you can walk away from this?"
Carly turned to look at Celine and Adam, realizing that neither of them intended to let her go.
Then, her gaze shifted to Grace. The warmth in Grace's eyes had disappeared, leaving only coldness. It was clear that Grace's goodwill toward her was gone.
Now, Carly's only hope was Nigel.
She looked at him desperately. "Dad, I'm your only daughter. You wouldn't just let them take me away, would you?"
Nigel didn't respond.
Carly pleaded again, "Please, Dad, you have to protect me! My life can't be ruined!"
Nigel finally spoke. "I have to take Carly home."
With that, he took Carly and left.
As soon as they were gone, Celine picked up Bella. "Bella, let's go home."
Grace turned to Celine. "Celine, thank you for healing my legs. Why don't you bring Bella to the Alvarez Residence?"
Adam, who was still unaware that Grace's legs had fully healed, was shocked. "Mom, your legs..."
Grace smiled. "Celine healed them."
Adam looked at Celine in surprise and gratitude. "Celine, thank you."
Celine responded calmly, "Mr. Alvarez, Mrs. Alvarez, there's no need to thank me. It was nothing."

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....
