Both Adam and Mary had asked Larry to stay for dinner.
Larry smiled shty. “In that case, I’ll gladly accept .."
Celine cut him off. “He won’t be staying for dinner.”
Larry froze and numed to Celine
celine returned his gaze. “You’ve just been released from prison. Don’t ever
Her words immediately cast a tense atmosphere over the room.
Mary looked at Larry in surprise. “You’ve been in prison?
ine’s expression hardened. “Yes, for ten years.”
Mary gasped. “What did you go to prison for?”
ccomeback.”
Larry shifted his gaze to celine. “You can ask Celine if you’re curious. She knows better than anyone.”
He threw the question back to Celine, wanting to see if she would reveal the truth about his imprisonment
Celine saw through his intentions but said nothing.
Adam continued, “Is that all you wanted to say?”
Larry met his gaze and felt a chill run down his spine. Adam’s eyes were sharp and unreadable, carrying an air of danger that made him feel as though he were being dissected.
He forced a laugh “Mr. Alvarez, I just got out of prison, and I’m a little short on money, I was wondering if you could…”
Adam cocked an eyebrow. “You want money?”
Larry shifted uncomfortably under Adam’s piercing gaze but shamelessly replied, “Yes, Mr. Alvarez. After all, I’m Celine’s adoptive father. It’s only right for you to give me some money as a show of respect, right?
Adar leaned back in the chair, “Sure. How much do you want?

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....
