The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268

Celine sat upright in her chair and said, “Go back and check the ‘Sacred Herbal Codex‘, Volume Ten, page 4008. You made a mistake just now.”

She spoke earnestly, her tone full of weight. “We, as medical practitioners, must be meticulous. A small error could lead to catastrophic consequences,” At that moment, James stood towering over her, his height giving him a clear advantage. But her slender, graceful back was perfectly straight, and her intelligent, clear eyes met his with the authority of a lecturer addressing a student.

He was stunned. Was she lecturing him? Did she think she was the lecturer? His lecturer could only be Dr. C!

He felt as though the world had gone mad. He wanted to reprimand her, but she spoke first

“That’s enough, James. You can go now.”

He was flabbergasted. She had called him by his full name again. This audacity rendered him speechless. Without another word, he turned and left.

Back in the principal’s office, James fused. This was absurd. There was no way he could have been wrong

He immediately pulled out the “Sacred Herbal Codex“, and it didn’t take him long to find the content on Volume Ten, page 4008.

Celine had remembered it all perfectly. As he read further, he drew a sharp breath.

She was right.

He had made a mistake! Good heavens!

Just then, Bailey walked in and asked, “Mr. Lambert, what’s the matter?”

James stared at Bailey, dazed.

“There’s a student of mine who would always sleep through my lectures, but the moment she opened her eyes, she pointed out my mistake. What do you make of that?” he asked.

That evening, in the luxurious booth of Club 1996, Benjamin asked with uncontainable excitement, “Adam, is it true? Is Miss Genius C finally going to like an appearance?”

Dressed in a black shirt and black slacks, Adam sat in the main seat, exuding a cold, composed aura. Carly was seated beside him, with Melody also present.

Watching Benjamin’s barely restrained enthusiasm, Carly’s mood soured. She knew he was quite interested in this “Miss Genius C and even wanted to pursue her

The others laughed. One of them teased, “Ben, are you really smitten with Miss Genlus C

“Looks like Ben, who’s charmed countless women, has finally found someone who can keep him in check,” another added.

As the conversation revolved around this “Miss Genius C“, Carly masked her displeasure with a smile and chimed in, saying, “Benjamin, this sounds like falling in love with an online persona. How do you even know what Miss Genius C looks like?

“I’ve heard that these scholarly prodigles from prestigious familles aren’t much to look at. Because they’re average, no one dates them, so they just focus on their studies.”
