Stella clenched her fists as jealousy burned in her eyes. Even though she was engaged to Declan, she knew that Hailey had always occupied a place in his heart.
A woman's intuition never lied.
Now, Hailey was back, entangling herself with him once again and making Stella feel threatened.
She loved Declan. She loved him a lot. She didn't want to lose him.
"Ms. Xanders, what exactly is going on?"
Annoyed, she snapped, "All of you, get out!"
The crowd quickly scattered.
Just then, Bob arrived. He looked at Stella. "Stelly, what's wrong? Who made you upset?"
Stella reached out and hugged her father. "Dad, you're here?"
Bob glanced around. "Stelly, where's Declan? Wasn't he supposed to be here with you? Where did he go? Why are you here alone?"
She couldn't bear to speak ill of Declan. "He just went to the restroom, Dad. Dad, I'm scared of losing Declan. I want to marry him as soon as possible."
Bob frowned. "Stelly, why are you in such a hurry to get married?"
"Because I want to marry him! But I feel like Declan isn't in a rush. Dad, you have to find a way to make him marry me sooner."
She pouted playfully. "Dad, you think so highly of Declan. Everyone says a son-in-law is like half a son. If I get married, you can hand over the family business to Declan, and then I'll give you a bunch of grandkids. You can retire and enjoy life taking care of them!"
Bob burst into hearty laughter. "You really are ready to fly the nest, huh? Alright, I'll think of a way."
"What way?"
He smirked knowingly. "Simple. You and Declan just need to seal the deal."
Stella's face flushed. "Dad!"
"Don't you want to?"

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!...
