Sonia explained, "Celine's father wasn't my biological son. He was adopted. Over the years, Carly has always been by Lucy's side, so naturally, Lucy treats her as her own daughter."
She offered a brief explanation.
Nigel didn't respond right away. Instead, he turned to Celine. "Celine, I'll believe you for now."
Celine said, "Thanks, Mr. Hampton."
"But I need you to cure Carly."
Celine arched her brow as she said, "Mr. Hampton, you just said you believe me. If I wasn't the one who poisoned her, why should I be the one to cure her?"
Lucy snapped, "Celine, do you think Mr. Hampton is being too polite with you?"
Sonia said, "Celine, you should know your place. No one talks to Mr. Hampton like that."
Celine ignored them both. She kept her gaze on Nigel and said, "Mr. Hampton, I have no obligation to cure Carly. Are you asking for my help?"
Nigel studied her, taking in her calm intelligence. Suddenly, he smirked.
She really was interesting. No one had ever spoken to him this way before.
Nigel nodded. "Yes, I'm asking for your help. Celine, please cure my daughter."
Lucy glared at Celine with pure hatred, as if she wanted to burn a hole through her with just her eyes.
Nigel was actually indulging her. Was this the power of blood ties?
Family always came first.
Celine was Nigel's biological daughter and also the heiress of the Hampton fortune.
Celine asked, "Mr. Hampton, is this how you ask for a favor? Without showing any sincerity?"

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. đ Ewan is so evil...
This writer is very sad! Why should Ewan come back to hurt Declan!...
So letâs move to Celina and Adam...
Please take back to Celine and Adam's story !...
Stella is another Carly...
Donât let lucy win!. It is about time to get Celine whatâs rightfully hers! Pls...
Hope this truth is not going to be buried...
I hope this doesnât dragâŠ..but typical of these stories, they will see again in 3-5 years time, with a toddler involved đđ...
Itâs for the best that Celine leaves until she gives birth then revenge! I like it!...
