Aileen spotted Hailey and excitedly rushed over. "Hailey, you're here!"
"Hello, Mrs. Zamora and Aileen!" Hailey greeted them.
Pamela's expression brightened at the sight of Hailey. "Declan, you should've told me Hailey was coming! We could have prepared more dishes."
Before Declan could explain that Hailey wasn't staying for dinner, Hailey spoke up. "Mrs. Zamora, I'm not picky. As long as there's enough food to fill me up, I'm happy."
"Well then, you'll definitely be well-fed!" Pamela replied.
Everyone shared a lighthearted chuckle.
"I'm going to take a shower," Declan said, heading toward his room.
Once inside, he turned on the shower, letting the cold water rush over him.
The aphrodisiac Adeline had used on him was incredibly potent, and despite his experience, it was hard to shake off its effects.
The cold water splashed against his muscles, droplets scattering in every direction. He slowly closed his eyes, trying to steady himself.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, and Hailey's soft voice rang out. "Declan?"
He didn't look up. "Yes?"
Hailey continued, "Mrs. Zamora asked me to bring you clean clothes."
"Just leave them in here," he responded.
Hailey stepped inside, the frosted glass door keeping them apart. Without meeting Declan's gaze, she asked, "Where should I put them?"
"Hang them up," he said.
"Got it."
With that, Hailey carefully hung the clothes on the rack.
Declan turned his head slightly, his gaze locking on the silhouette of her figure through the frosted glass.
She moved with grace, the gentle curve of her body faintly visible. Her long, dark hair tumbled down, casting a spell of allure in the space around her.

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!...
