The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 990

Hailey gave a cold smile as she said, "Justin, sometimes what you see isn't the truth. Do you even know what Joanne did to me the last time you asked me to meet you?"

Justin interrupted her. "That's enough, Ms. Hailey. No matter what you say, I'm not going to believe it!"

Hailey was speechless by his reaction. She knew Justin's feelings for her ran too deep. No matter what she said, he wouldn't believe a word of it.

"Ms. Hailey, I just want to talk," he said.

"Then I'm sorry. I don't have time, and I'm not meeting you!"

With that, Hailey immediately hung up the phone.

She had hung up the phone on purpose. As long as she didn't take the bait, Ewan and Joanne would only grow more anxious.

It wouldn't be long before they got desperate and made a reckless move.

Now, all she had to do was wait.

At that moment, Joanne was with Justin. When she saw him put down his phone, she asked, "So? Did Hailey agree to meet?"

Justin shook his head. "Ms. Hailey said she's busy. She doesn't want to meet me."

Joanne instantly clenched her fists. Since Hailey refused to come out, it was clear they needed to try a different approach.

"Justin, you can still access Jonah's villa, right? You've got the fingerprint authorization."

"Why are you asking about that, Joanne?" Justin asked while looking at her.

"Justin, since Hailey won't come to us, there's only one way. You take me into the villa so I can talk to her in person. While we're at it, you'll need to call Jonah and find a way to keep him occupied. That's the only way we'll get a chance to speak with her alone."

Justin frowned. "Joanne, why are you in such a rush to see Ms. Hailey?"

Joanne froze for a moment. It was the first time Justin had ever questioned her.

"Justin, that's exactly why we can't let her keep the baby! Hailey is using that baby to keep Jonah around her! You've seen it yourself—he's already proposed to her!

"Do you really want to stand by and watch Jonah get ruined by Hailey? We're his closest friends—if we don't help him, then who will?"

Justin hesitated. He was Jonah's closest friend, and no one in this world wanted to see Jonah happy more than he did.

Upon seeing that he was starting to waver, Joanne wore a barely noticeable smirk. She knew he was being swayed.

Now all she needed to do was give one last push.

Joanne said, "Justin, we're running out of time. We have to get into the villa and find Hailey! We can't let her go through with the wedding to Jonah. Right now, only you can save him. Please, help him!"

Justin hesitated for a second, then his gaze hardened with resolve.

He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll do as you say! I'll call someone to get Jonah out of there first, then take you into the villa to find Hailey!"

Joanne smiled happily. The plan was unfolding smoothly, just as she had hoped.
