Hailey shook her head and took a step back.
Inside, the officiant stepped onto the stage. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the wedding of Mr. Zamora and Ms. Xanders. Now, I officially announce the ceremony has begun. Let's welcome the bride and groom."
The lights dimmed, and the soft melody of the Wedding March filled the hall.
Stella walked arm in arm with Declan down the red-carpeted aisle. Slowly, they approached the officiant.
The officiant looked at Stella and asked, "Ms. Xanders, do you willingly take Mr. Zamora as your husband? Will you stand by his side through wealth and poverty, sickness and health, for as long as you both shall live?"
Stella blushed and answered, "I do."
The officiant then turned to Declan. "Mr. Zamora, do you willingly take Ms. Xanders as your wife? Will you stand by her side through wealth and poverty, sickness and health, for as long as you both shall live?"
At that moment, Hailey was heartbroken. It was as if a knife had pierced her chest, sinking deep into her soul.
She never imagined Declan would actually stand at the altar with Stella. He was really going to marry her.
Ewan let out a cold laugh. "Hailey, do you see it now? Stop dreaming! You cared for Declan's mother, looked after his sister, and yet here he is, marrying another woman. He's been lying to you all along. He's nothing but a liar!"
A liar? Was Declan really going to marry Stella?
Hailey refused to believe it. She reached into her pocket, pulled out her phone, and dialed Declan's number.
Ewan asked, "Hailey, are you still not giving up?"
"This is between Declan and me. It's none of your business!"
Ewan clenched his fists. For the first time, he fully understood that Hailey didn't have feelings for him.

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!...
