Jonah was undoubtedly a man of remarkable charm—but that was all there was to him.
Hailey nodded. "You can go now."
He tucked the blanket around her before quietly leaving the room.
Just like that, he was gone.
Hailey settled back into the bed, closed her eyes, and quickly drifted off to sleep.
The next morning, her phone rang. It was Ewan.
Curious about what trick he might be pulling, she answered.
"Hey, Hailey. Are you free? How about grabbing a bite together?" Ewan's voice came through the line.
"Ewan, I don't think we're at a point where I'm comfortable with us having meals together. If it's not important, I'm going to hang up."
Just as Hailey was about to end the call, Ewan interrupted her. "Wait, Hailey. Don't hang up. Meet me—I need to talk. It's about Jonah."
It was about Jonah?
Hailey sneered. "Fine. I'm on my way."
…
At the cafe, Hailey quickly spotted Ewan waiting. She took a seat across from him. "Alright, Ewan. What's this about Jonah?"
Ewan smirked. "What's the rush, Hailey? Let's grab some coffee first."
Hailey looked suspiciously at the cup. "I'm not drinking this, Ewan. How can I be sure you didn't slip something in?"
Ewan remained silent.
Hailey frowned, but beneath the surface, she wasn't shaken. She refused to believe a single word Ewan was saying.
"Yes, the child in my womb is Jonah's, but it's mine, too. I don't believe women bring children into the world just for men, and I won't place all the responsibility on Jonah. I'm doing this for my child—and for myself."
Ewan's expression faltered, caught off guard by her response.
"So, Ewan, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving," Hailey said, rising to her feet.
But before she could move, Ewan sprang up, grabbing her arm. "Hailey, don't walk away. I can't even understand how things between us went so wrong. It's all because of Jonah. You never would've fallen for him if he hadn't shown up. I hate him so much!"
Hailey shuddered, repulsed by his touch. "Ewan, let me go!"
"Not a chance!" he replied sharply.
Suddenly, a cold, authoritative voice sliced through the tension. "Let her go!"

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....
