Celine was furious. A dull pain began to creep through her lower abdomen again.
She gave herself an injection and was about to lie down to rest when a melodic ringtone suddenly filled the room.
She was getting a call. It was from her best friend, Robin.
Celine pressed the answer button. "Hello, Robin."
Robin's voice came through immediately, laced with panic. "Celine, something's wrong over here."
Celine's heart tightened. "Robin, what happened?"
"Celine, I just got home from work, but a group of people suddenly broke into my apartment. I was so scared, I locked myself in my room."
"What? Who are these people? Robin, did you call the police?"
"I already did, but they're tearing the place apart, saying something about how anyone who crosses Mr. Alvarez won't end well."
Adam?
Celine gripped her phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
Adam had just gone after Perry, and now he was coming after her best friend, Robin?
He knew how much she cared about the people around her, and now he was using them to force her hand.
"Celine, what exactly happened between you and Mr. Alvarez? These people keep saying Mercity belongs to him and that we'd better behave…"
Celine quickly said, "Robin, I'm coming over right—"
Before she could finish, Robin let out a sharp scream. "Ah!"
Celine's face paled. She clutched her phone tighter and shouted, "Robin, what's happening? Robin!"
All she could hear was chaos on the other end of the line. Then, the line was cut off.
A chill spread through Celine's heart. Something had definitely happened to Robin.
Celine jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, and rushed to the door. She stormed straight to Adam's apartment and jabbed at the doorbell repeatedly.

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!...
