Adam sent another message. "Celine, I have so much to say to you. If you don't want to see me, I'll stay here until you do."
Celine stared at his messages in silence for a few seconds before replying with just two words, "Come up."
She let him up.
Two minutes later, the doorbell rang.
Celine opened the door and saw Adam standing there.
He had come up as quickly as possible, his face filled with urgency. "Celine, you finally agreed to see me. I knew you would."
Celine stepped aside. "Come in."
Adam walked inside.
They stood in the living room, facing each other.
She asked, "Mr. Alvarez, what do you need?"
The way she addressed him—so distant and formal—made it clear that she had decided to distance herself from him.
Adam took a step forward. "Celine, can you stop treating me so coldly? I didn't know it was you. I've been looking for you for all these years."
Celine nodded. "I know. I know everything now."
Adam reached out, gripping her shoulders. "Celine, give me another chance. We've already lost so many years. I don't want to lose you again."
She pushed him away. "Adam, it's too late. Do you know how many chances I've given you in my heart? When we divorced, I gave you a chance. When Carly and I were kidnapped together, I gave you a chance. When I was pinned down on the operating table, praying you would come, I gave you a chance. But in every moment I needed you, you turned away.
"You did it once, then again and again until I learned how to live without you. I don't need you anymore."

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!...
