The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 412

As Adam looked up, he saw Hailey already making her way through the crowd, heading toward Declan.

Having always been pampered by the Alvarez family, Hailey had reached an age at which marriage discussions became increasingly unavoidable.

Adam's brow furrowed in frustration. "What is she doing with these unsavory people?"

Meanwhile, Celine observed Adam, impeccably dressed in a tailored black suit.

Amid the opulence, he exuded an air of sophistication, standing in stark contrast to Declan. He belonged to a world entirely separate from that of someone like him.

It was clear—Adam would never approve of Hailey being involved with someone like Declan.

"Mr. Alvarez, you're crossing a line. Hailey's choices have nothing to do with you," Celine said.

Adam met her gaze. "Have you had enough of this place? If you're finished, I'll take you home."

Without waiting for a response, Adam firmly took Celine's arm and led her away.

Behind them, Robin called out, "Celine! Mr. Alvarez!"

…

Declan arrived backstage to change. Though he didn't visit the place often, he knew it was highly profitable.

He ripped off his torn white tank top and was about to pull on a black hoodie when the door suddenly swung open behind him. His sharp gaze immediately flicked toward it. "Who's there?"

It was Hailey, who had followed him in. To her surprise, she found herself staring directly at Declan's bare chest.

Her face flushed instantly, and she quickly shielded her face with both hands. "Ah!"

Without missing a beat, Declan threw on the hoodie, grabbed his bag, and started heading toward the door.

He had no intention of engaging with Hailey, treating her as though she were invisible.

But Hailey stepped directly into his path, blocking his way. "Declan, are you really going to pretend you don't know me?"

Declan halted. "Move."

Hailey refused to step aside.
