Dr. C was a woman? Sonia and Tracy froze, their faces instantly shifting with shock.
"Mr. Marshall, what are you talking about? How could Dr. C be a woman? He's dating me, he's a man."
Perry raised an eyebrow. "Not only do I know Dr. C, but we're on great terms. If I say she's a woman, then she's a woman."
Tracy stood rooted in place, her mind racing. Shaking her head in disbelief, she stammered, "That's impossible, Mr. Marshall. You must be lying to me!"
Sonia, unwilling to accept the claim, scoffed. "Mr. Marshall, even if you're Celine's boyfriend now, there's no need to make jokes like this, is there?"
Their disbelief didn't faze Perry. He simply shrugged. "Dr. C is a woman. Whether you believe me or not is your choice. Come on, Celine. Let's go."
"Sure." With that, Perry and Celine left the room, leaving Sonia and Tracy frozen in place.
Sonia grabbed Tracy's arm, her voice trembling. "Tracy, why would Mr. Marshall say Dr. C is a woman? What's going on?"
Just then, Carly emerged from the titting room, with Lucy following close behind. Both of them wore serious expressions.
“Tracy, the person you’re dating, is it really Dr. C? Are you sure there’s no mistake?”
Tracy, you can’t afford to get this wrong. We’ve staked everything on this. Grandma even mortgaged Tate Manor. If we’ve been scammed, the Tates are finished ”
Tracy’s face tightened, anxiety clouding her teatures. Up until now, she’d been convinced she’d found the real Dr. C.
When Celine had called Dr. C fraud before, none of thein had believed her. But now, with Perry’s assertion, doubt began to creep in
Even so, Tracy forced herself to remain composed. “Why would you believe anything Mr. Marshall says? He’s Celine’s boyfriend now, of course, he’s helping her mess with us. Don’t trust him!”
Carly turned to Adam. “Adam, what do you think?”
Adam’s gaze followed the direction where Celine and Perry had disappeared.
After a moment of silence, his deep, magnetic voice broke the tension. “I don’t know Dr. C personally. We’ve missed each other a few times. But Perry isn’t just some nobody.
“He’s a big name in Fustain, with connections in both legitimate and underground circles. If he says he Iows Dr. Cand claims Dr. C is a woman, It’s probably not baseless.”

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!...
