The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154

Oh, so that was what it was about. Celine immediately picked up a pen.

“Mr. Alvarez, wait a moment. I’ll write it for you now.”

Lowering her head, she began writing the medicinal soup recipe on a piece of paper. As she leaned forward, the neckline of her camisole dipped, momentarily revealing the enticing curves beneath.

Adam’s throat constricted, a rush of heat surging through him. He already knew she had an exceptional figure.

Her slender waist, which was like a willow branch, was yet another natural allure. Every part of her seemed to carry an effortless and innate temptation. Adam’s voice dropped to a husky tone as he called her, “Celine!”

Celine raised her head, her clear gaze brimming with innocence. “What’s wrong? Mr. Alvarez?”

Celine had seen the fire of passion in his eyes before.

Ordinarily, Adam was mature and reserved, as unattainable as the ultimate “ice king.” Even entertaining the thought of him in that way felt like blasphemy.
