The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 286

Chapter 286

Hailey caught the black jacket. The jacket was most likely his, and it still held some of his residual warmth.

It was warm. He was such a cold person, but he felt so warm.

Declan didn’t look at her. He took his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number. When the call connected, he recited the address they were at

“He’s out cold…don’t waste my time with small talk, just transfer the reward money to my card….”

Hailey stood, leaning against the Uber car, wanting to thank Declan. However, at that moment a familiar voice rang out in the distance. “Hailey! Hailey,

where are you?

Celine had started to search this area

When Hailey turned back, Declan was nowhere to be seen. He was already gone. Why did he leave so quickly? She didn’t even get the chance to thank him.

Adam and Celine found her. Adam had seen the tires‘ skid marks on the road, so he and Celine had exited the car to start searching. Celine saw Hailey and quickly ran over. “Hailey, are you alright? Why are you here? You frightened me!”

Adam looked at the driver who was passed out cold on the ground and could guess what had happened. He let out a relieved sigh upon seeing that Hailey was safe and well

However, his expression was cold and fierce. He scolded, “Hailey, why did you run out just like that? You’re an adult, and responsible for your own actions!”

Listening to Adam’s fierce berating, Hailey couldn’t contain her feelings of sadness, fear, and helplessness anymore. Her eyes filled with tears, and she turned to walk away.

Hailey leaned on Celine’s shoulder with tears clouding her eyes. She sobbed sadly, “Celine, I’ve had this birthunark since I was a young child. Dad, Mom… everyone around me felt bad about it… especially Dad. He feels guilty about the fact that he can treat others but not his own daughter.

“They’re all trying so hard to show me their love… and I love them so, so much too. I don’t want them to be sad, so I’ve always done my best to keep smiling even though I still feel sad when I see myself in the mirror…”

“Ewan said that I was pretty, and I believed him… but he’s been lying to me all this time. He said that I was ugly. Celine, what did I do wrong? Is it a sin to not be pretty?”

Celine hugged Hailey and comforted her in a gentle voice, “Hailey, you did nothing wrong”

Adarn stood beside them. Halley was his cousin, so how could he not feel for her?

Shortly after, two police cars arrived. The policemen came down from the cars in their uniforms and took the unconscious Storm Killer away.

One of the older policemen looked in the direction Declan had disappeared in and asked Hailey, “Miss, did the man who saved you just now leave already?
