But this time, Adam didn't even spare Carly a glance.
She was like the boy who cried wolf—left defenseless when she finally needed saving the most.
Celine stepped forward, towering over Carly. "Carly, stop deceiving yourself. There was never going to be a surgery."
Carly's eyes widened as the truth hit her. "I understand now… This was all a setup! You knew from the start that I was pretending to be you. You pretended to agree to the surgery, but in reality, this was all part of your plan to expose me. That's why you brought Alfred here today—to unveil the truth!"
A mocking smile spread across Celine's lips. "Well, well, you're not as dumb as I thought. That's right. I planned everything. Today was the day I was going to rip off your mask and reclaim what's mine."
"Celine, you're so cruel! We share the same last name! How could you do this to me?"
Celine scoffed, a harsh laugh escaping her. "Cruel? So now you remember we're family, huh? Where was that sentiment when you stole my identity? Why is it that you're allowed to hurt me, but I'm not allowed to stand up for myself?"
Sonia stumbled forward. "Celine, please, I'm your grandmother—"
"Enough! I don't need a grandmother like you. Go dote on Carly instead!"
Celine's eyes swept over the entire Tate family, cold and unwavering.
"I've made myself clear—whoever poisoned my father, you know exactly what you did. Either turn yourselves in and spend the rest of your lives repenting behind bars or prepare for a war. Because I'll never stop coming for you. This is a fight to the death!"
Her words hit like a bolt of lightning, sending a surge of fear through the Tate family.
Just then, Perry stepped forward. "Celine, you're pregnant. You shouldn't let your emotions get the best of you. Come, let's go rest."
Celine gave a nod. "Alright."
Without another word, she turned and followed Perry, leaving the scene behind.

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!...
