Carly immediately put on a smile. "Nothing, Adam. Go ahead and get back to work."
Adam shot her a suspicious look.
Her heart skipped a beat. She was afraid he might notice something. With how sharp Adam was, it wouldn't take much for him to pick up on the slightest clue.
Just then, Leo walked over, holding a document. "Mr. Alvarez, there's an issue with this contract."
Adam finally looked away. "We'll discuss it in the study."
With that, he led Leo back into the study to deal with the urgent paperwork.
Carly let out a quiet breath of relief. Then, she curled her red lips into a satisfied smile.
There was nothing left for her to do now other than to wait for the good news.
By tonight, the baby in Celine's stomach would be gone. No one could threaten her ever again!
…
Celine was speeding toward Robin's apartment when her phone rang. It was Hailey.
"Celine, I just tried calling Robin, but I couldn't get through. Do you know what's going on?" Hailey didn't know yet.
"Hailey, listen to me. Something's happened. Robin's been taken!"
"What?" Hailey gasped. "Celine, who took her?"
"It's Adam!"
Hailey sucked in a sharp breath. "Mr. Alvarez? Why would Mr. Alvarez take Robin?"
"Adam wants to force me to treat Carly's heart condition. He's completely on her side now. He'll do anything. There's no line he won't cross."
Hailey was so stunned she couldn't even respond.
"Hailey, I'm telling you this because I need you to be careful. I'm afraid Adam might come after you next."
"Celine, actually, Mr. Alvarez and I—"

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!...
