The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 917

The morning-after pill?

Hailey's pupils dilated in shock. "Wh-what are you trying to do?"

"Ms. Hailey, I'm going to buy you the morning-after pill," Jonah replied.

Hailey went silent.

She was already pregnant—there was no way she could take that pill.

"No," she said, shaking her head. "I don't want it!"

Jonah glanced at her, a playful smirk tugging at his lips.

"Ms. Hailey, what exactly are you trying to say? I didn't use protection last night. I'm in good health, with no fertility issues. If you don't take the pill and end up pregnant, what happens then?"

Hailey opened her mouth to respond. "I—"

Before she could finish, Jonah cut her off, "Or maybe, you're hoping to have my child?"

Hailey's throat constricted. She was caught in an impossible situation—taking the pill would harm the child inside her, but refusing would make Jonah think she was trying to get pregnant intentionally.

"I—"

"There's a pharmacy up ahead. We'll stop and get some."

With that, Jonah stopped the car at the side of the road and got out. He walked around to the passenger side and opened the door. "Ms. Hailey, please get out."

He was actually going to buy the pill.

Hailey gripped the seatbelt tightly, refusing to move.

Jonah leaned against the doorframe. "Ms. Hailey, what exactly are you trying to do here? If you keep this up, I might start thinking you're hoping to get pregnant. You're not trying to steal my genes, are you?"

Hailey immediately shot back, "I'm not!"

She had no desire to do anything like that.

The thought of it overwhelmed Hailey.

But Jonah didn't give her a moment to react. He took her by the wrist and pulled her out of the car. "Let's go, Ms. Hailey. It's time to get the pill."

Before Hailey could say a word, Jonah had already led her into the pharmacy. The shop owner glanced up, offering them a welcoming smile. "What can I help you two with today?"

"We're here for the morning-after pill," Jonah replied.

The shop owner chuckled softly. "You two aren't planning on having kids?"

She had clearly assumed they were a married couple.

Hailey started to protest, "You're mistaken, we're not—"

Before she could finish, Jonah casually draped his arm around her shoulders. He had a playful smile on his lips as he said, "That's right. My wife isn't ready for kids just yet."

His wife?
