Declan's expression remained impassive as he stared at her. "What do you want?"
Adeline stepped closer, her red-painted nails brushing against the muscles of his waist. "Damn, they're so firm."
"Take your hand off me!" Declan snapped.
Adeline wasn't bothered. "You know exactly why I called you here. We're both adults. From now on, you'll stay with me, and I'll support you. As long as you satisfy me in bed, you can set your own price. No more stripping for anyone else."
Declan locked eyes with her. "Shouldn't you be married by now? Aren't you worried your husband will find out?"
"Relax," Adeline replied with a confident grin. "My husband will never know. I've done this before, and he's never suspected a thing. It's completely safe."
A faint smirk tugged at Declan's lips. "And what if I tell your husband?"
"He wouldn't believe you," Adeline shot back without hesitation.
At that moment, Declan pulled a voice recorder from his pocket. "It's a shame… I've already recorded everything you just said."
Adeline's expression shifted instantly. She hadn't expected him to be carrying a voice recorder.
Her face darkened as she sneered, "You're incredibly ungrateful. I have wealth, beauty, and a body that drives men wild. I even offered you money to sleep with me, and yet, you're the first man to turn me down."
With her well-maintained figure and mature allure, it wasn't hard to see why many men found her irresistible.
Declan let out a cold laugh. "If so many men are interested, go find one of them. I'm not interested. But if you ever interfere with my family, I'll make sure your life becomes a living hell."
Adeline fell silent, sensing the lethal threat in his gaze.
Declan turned to leave, but something felt off. A sudden wave of heat swept over him, an unfamiliar warmth spreading through his body.
Having dealt with similar situations before, he turned back sharply. "What did you do? What's in this room?"

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!...
