Chapter 1 8
Lucy’s face turned pale. “Hone!”
She quickly grabbed Samson’s arm in desperation. “Mr. Stone, what’s going on? Didn’t we agree that if I delivered Celine to your bed, you’d help me arrange a meeting with Dr.
This ”
Her voice abruptly stopped as her eyes caught sight of a slender, elegant figure standing near the doorway. Celine had arrived.
No one new when she had come, but now she stood there silently as her clear, luminous eyes calmly watched Lacy’s penic and disarray.
Lucy froze, her body stiffening. Meanwhile, Samson quickly scurried to Celine’s side, bowing and scraping with a fawning smile. “Ms. Tate!”
Celine pulled out a pen from her pocket, then casually tossed it into the nearby pool. “Mr. Stone, I’ve dropped my pen.
“Ms. Tate, I’ll get it for you right away”
Samson dashed outside without hesitation and dove into the pool, unfazed by the icy autumn water. Lucy walked over, her expression incredulous as she watched the scene unfold Samson surfaced from the pool, soaking wet but triumphantly holding up the pen like a prized treasure. He grinned at Celine. “Ms. Tate, I found your pen!”
Lucy stared at Celine as though she were some kind of monster. Celine smirked, “What’s wrong? Don’t recognize me?
Lucy struggled to comprehend what she was seeing. She couldn’t figure out what Celine had done to Samson to make him obey her like a dog.
Celine’s voice tumed sharp, I’ve never understood why you treated me this way. What more do you want? You took over my father’s house, stole his company, and abandoned the daughter he loved most. Not to mention, you ruined the Château Lafite wine he left for me.
As she spoke, she stepped closer to Lucy. Today is just a small warning. Let me reintroduce myself–I’m not the same Celine you knew back then. Next time, you’d better think twice before crossing me.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
What a way for both Hayden and Lucy to go...
I'm so invested with this novel. Both Declan-Hailey and Celine-Adam's story. But, Declan and Hailey gives me more heartache. I thought they would get their happy ending after what Declan have been through. But just like what others said, maybe the author is very sad that's why she don't want her characters to be happy. 😭 Ewan is so evil...
This writer is very sad! Why should Ewan come back to hurt Declan!...
So let’s move to Celina and Adam...
Please take back to Celine and Adam's story !...
Stella is another Carly...
Don’t let lucy win!. It is about time to get Celine what’s rightfully hers! Pls...
Hope this truth is not going to be buried...
I hope this doesn’t drag…..but typical of these stories, they will see again in 3-5 years time, with a toddler involved 😁😁...
It’s for the best that Celine leaves until she gives birth then revenge! I like it!...
