Grace looked at Adam. "Adam, why did you come alone? Where's Carly?"
Just then, Carly cheerfully ran over. "Mrs. Alvarez, I'm here."
She had known Grace would be arriving in Mercity today, so she had come early.
Carly's appearance was flawless. Standing next to Adam, they looked like the perfect pair.
Grace examined Carly with evident satisfaction. "So, you're the Hampton heiress. You're beautiful."
Carly shyly took Grace's hand. "Mrs. Alvarez, you flatter me."
Grace patted Carly's hand gently. "Carly, our families have a marriage agreement. Tell me, do you like my son, Adam?"
Carly immediately looked up at Adam, her heart fluttering at the sight of his handsome, noble face. She bit her lip and replied, "Mrs. Alvarez, of course, I like Adam."
Grace smiled approvingly. "That's good. Carly, once you return to the Capitol, we'll arrange your wedding as soon as possible."
Carly nodded. "Alright, I have no objections."
However, Adam remained indifferent. "Mom, I won't marry Carly," he coldly said.
Carly froze.
Grace's expression darkened. "Marriage isn't a trivial matter, Adam. No one else will ever step through the Alvarez family's doors. Carly is the daughter-in-law I've chosen."
She turned to Carly reassuringly. "Don't worry, Carly. You have my full support. If Adam ever mistreats you, just tell me."
Carly was overjoyed. Just when she thought there was no hope with Adam, Grace had become her strongest ally.
Adam was an obedient son, and with Grace's support, Carly was confident she would soon become Mrs. Alvarez.
Celine would remain her defeated rival.

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!...
