The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 437
The tension in the room escalated instantly. The scarred man truly hadn't expected Adam to hit him.
But right now, Adam was his golden ticket, his big payday, so he didn't want to burn that bridge.
He swallowed his anger and forced himself to stay calm.
"Mr. Alvarez, did you bring the money?" the man asked.
Adam's voice was cold and unwavering. "I brought it—every cent. But we do this fairly. I give you the money. You give me the hostages."
The scarred man smirked. "Sure, we'll trade fairly. But I'm only giving you one of them."
Adam's sharp eyes narrowed, his deep voice turning ice-cold. "What do you mean?"
"We agreed on a trade, one person for one billion dollars. I never said anything about handing over two. That money only buys you one." The scarred man's grin was laced with cruelty.
Adam's jaw tightened. "I'll pay more."
"Mr. Alvarez, this isn't about money. This is how things work in my world. You only get one. Now, make your choice—your ex-wife or your girlfriend. One walks out with you. The other stays with us." He let out a dark chuckle.
Celine's face paled. She hadn't expected this twist.
He was making Adam choose between her and Carly.
Carly immediately turned to Adam, her voice urgent. "Adam, this isn't even a question. You're obviously choosing me, right? My heart isn't in good shape. I need to get out of here!"
Adam glanced at Carly briefly, then looked at Celine.
Celine met his gaze. "Mr. Alvarez, would you choose me if I begged you?"
Celine wasn't stupid. Of course, she wanted to leave. But it wasn't just about her anymore. She had Adam's baby inside her.
If she pleaded, would Adam choose her?
Adam frowned slightly, but he said nothing.
The scarred man clapped his hands together. "Tick-tock, Mr. Alvarez. I'm giving you until the count of three. If you don't pick, you leave here alone. One… two…"
Carly's voice turned desperate. "Adam! Did you forget your promise to me? You said you'd take me with you! You swore you'd always take care of me!"
The final count was about to fall when Adam spoke. "I choose Carly."

We getting somewhere with revelations...
Pls upload more chapters coz it’s not enough to be honest. But I’m thankful for the 4 chapters. Thanks! And author please let Celine have her justice and let those people who wronged her be punished. Pls, I am so invested in this and it’s so exhausting to read about Celine’s being bullied and hurt over and over again. Let Celine shine pls!!!🙏...
I knew it! Lucy poisoned them. But, It’s about time that the truth will prevail. Hope Adam would listen. I just hope that Carly and Lucy won't get a chance to interfere and stop Adam from finding out the truth! It’s time that Celine will get her justice and get back everything that’s belong to her especially her Identity. Whether Adam believes Celine, it’s up to him. But he’s a moron lol. I hate him from being so blind!...
I dont understand, why lucy hates celine so much? She is her daughter, biological daughter... Why she scemed against celine, as if she is her mortal enemy.....
Hopefully the truth comes out soon....
That’s just great! Let me guess, the truth won’t be revealed because Lucy and Carly poison those kidnappers and the doctors lol. In the end Adam will take Carly sides again lol! Same old same old....
Finally!!! I can breathe! Grandma pls protect Celine at all cost. Now everyone knows that Celines baby is Adams! Yes!! Thanks Author for this wonderful chapter!...
