Celine froze. She looked up at Adam. "What did you say? Whose child did you say this was?"
Adam sneered. "Do I really need to tell you whose child it is? You should know better than anyone! The child is Perry's!"
Celine's slender frame trembled. She didn't want Adam to know about the child's existence, but now that he did, she couldn't let him misunderstand the child's parentage.
"Adam, listen to me carefully. This child is not Perry's. It's yours!"
Celine said the child was his.
Adam was momentarily stunned before he slowly chuckled.
"Adam, what are you laughing at? I'm not joking. This child is really yours. I—"
"Enough, Celine!" He cut her off, reaching out to pinch her delicate chin. "Celine, you're carrying Perry's child and still have the audacity to tell me it's mine? What do you take me for? Some gullible fool? Or are you just pitying me?"
"I…"
"Celine, listen up. I don't give a damn about the child in your belly. I don't care whose it is!"
Celine's heart turned cold in an instant. The words she had been about to say got stuck in her throat. After what he just said, what was the point of explaining further? He didn't care about this child at all.
She raised her hand and pressed it against his chest. "If that's the case, then let go of me, Mr. Alvarez. You can leave now."
Adam looked at her cold and distant expression, and suddenly, he couldn't take it. In fact, back at the cemetery, he already couldn't take it when she looked at him with those eyes.
"Celine, is Perry really that important to you?"
"Yes! Even if you ask a thousand times, ten thousand times, Perry will always be more important to me than you!"
She actually admitted that Perry was more important than him.
Adam pressed his tongue against the inside of his cheek, laughing in anger. "Since Perry is so important to you, then considering that he's in my hands right now, shouldn't you do something for him?"

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!...
