The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 540

Nigel gazed at Carly with affection.

Hayden watched the scene with satisfaction while Lucy, standing off to the side, curled her lips into a quiet smile. Her scheming hadn't been in vain, after all.

…

That night, Carly returned to her room.

Not long after, Lucy followed her in. "Carly."

Carly's tone was cold. "What do you want?"

"Carly, I just came to see you. In a couple of days, you'll be leaving for the Capitol with Mr. Hampton. I can't bear to part with you."

Lucy was genuinely reluctant to let Carly go, but Carly didn't want to see Lucy at all. "I'm fine. You can go."

"Carly…" Lucy reached out to take Carly's hand.

However, Carly shook her off. "What are you doing? Why are you so annoying?"

Lucy froze. "Carly, is that how you talk to your mother?"

"Mother?" Carly sneered. "You're not my real mother. Mrs. Hampton is my mother. At most, you're just my foster mom."

Lucy stiffened. She had gone through so much trouble to swap Carly and Celine, ensuring that Carly would become a billionaire heiress.

However, she never expected that once Carly became the heiress, she would refuse to acknowledge her. She had poured all her love and devotion into Carly. Carly was her only hope.
