Several bodyguards entered and restrained Lucy.
Sonia cradled Hayden's body, weeping bitterly. "Hayden! Hayden! I should be the one to die instead of you! I shouldn't be the one to bury my child!"
…
The Tates began preparing for Hayden's funeral.
Carly, however, was restless. She was terrified that Lucy might let something slip as she was still in Nigel's custody.
Carly went to find Nigel, who was speaking to Eren in his study.
She quickly hid outside the door and eavesdropped.
Inside, Nigel asked, "Has Lucy confessed anything?"
Eren responded in a low voice, "She's keeping her mouth shut, refusing to say anything. But the fingerprints on the knife belong to her, and the evidence against her for murder is solid."
Eren then hesitated before adding, "Sir, what exactly are you hoping to uncover?"
Nigel pressed his lips together thoughtfully. "I don't know. I just have this feeling that Lucy is hiding something. And whatever it is, it's related to Carly."
Eren was surprised. "Ms. Hampton?"
Nigel stood up and walked over to the window. "Haven't you noticed something strange about Carly? We both know how she was poisoned—she did it to herself. If I'm not mistaken, her real target was Celine."
Eren nodded. "Sir, I've served you for many years. I must say, Ms. Hampton's character leaves much to be desired. On the other hand, I've interacted with Ms. Celine—she's intelligent and straightforward."
Nigel chuckled. "Adam has a good eye for people."
Outside the door, Carly's nails dug deep into her palms in rage.

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!...
