The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 980

Jonah froze, clearly caught off guard. "What did you just say? Since when did I buy Kaia a diamond bracelet?"

"Isn't that how it went, Mr. Pilsner? That bracelet must have cost a fortune. I never thought you'd be that generous," Hailey retorted.

Jonah blinked in surprise. "I don't know what you're talking about. Who told you I bought her a bracelet?"

Hailey looked at him. Was he serious? Had he really not given Kaia the bracelet? Something didn't add up.

"Either you bought it or you didn't," she said. "Why lie about it?"

"If I had, I'd admit it. But I didn't. Listen carefully, I have never given Kaia a bracelet."

Hailey froze, her eyes locked on his, searching his face for even a hint of deception.

But Jonah remained composed, his gaze steady and sincere.

What was going on?

"You don't seem to believe me. Did Kaia plant this idea in your mind? I can call her right now and ask."

With that, Jonah pulled out his phone and dialed Kaia's number. "Ms. Ellington, come to the villa right now."

He wasn't joking.

"Actually, you don't have to call her—"

Before Hailey could finish, Jonah tightened his arm around her waist, a mischievous smile curling on his lips. "You don't like me buying diamond bracelets for other women, right? Then I've got to find out what's really going on."

"Who said I mind? Mr. Pilsner, you're rich. You can buy diamond bracelets for anyone you want."

"So you don't mind, huh? Then anyone who does is just a little bitch!" Jonah mocked.

Did he really just call her that?

She knocked gently. "Mr. Pilsner, it's Kaia."

"Come in," Jonah called from inside.

Kaia turned the knob and pushed the door open. "Mr. Pilsner—"

Her voice faltered as she took in the scene before her. Jonah held Hailey close, the two locked in a tender embrace.

Kaia stood frozen in the doorway.

Her hopes crumbled instantly. Why was Jonah holding Hailey like that?

Should she just turn and walk away?

Hailey reached up and gently pushed Jonah. "Mr. Pilsner, Ms. Ellington is here. Please let me go."
