Adam's growing unease intensified.
He reached for his phone, only to find his pockets empty. It suddenly dawned on him that he had forgotten to bring his phone when he rushed Carly to the hospital.
He looked at Carly and gently said, "Carly, let your mom stay with you. I have some documents to review, and I'll come back first thing in the morning."
Carly immediately threw herself at him, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist. "No! I don't want my mom here. I want you to stay with me, Adam!"
Adam reached out, trying to pry her off.
Just then, a sharp voice rang out from the doorway.
"You ungrateful brat!"
Adam turned and saw Mary standing at the door.
He was shocked. He hadn't expected to see his grandmother here. "Grandma, what are you doing here?"
Carly and Lucy were also taken aback. "Mrs. Alvarez Senior…"
Mary stood at the doorway, her eyes burning with rage as she saw Adam and Carly clinging to each other. She stormed in, lifted her cane, and struck Adam hard on the back. "So this is where you've been, you ungrateful brat! With this shameless woman!"
Adam didn't dodge. The cane struck him with a loud thwack.
Mary didn't stop. She hit him a second time, then a third.
Lucy and Carly were both horrified.
The cane struck Carly hard, and she cried out in pain. "Mrs. Alvarez Senior, why are you hitting me? Stop!"
Mary ignored her pleas and swung the cane down on Carly again and again. "You ungrateful wretch! Celine is your sister, yet you shamelessly seduce her husband! That's strike one! You cling to Adam, always whining about your heart, yet you're perfectly fine! That's strike two!
"Your family is full of scheming vipers, always plotting against Celine, and that's strike three! I should just beat you to death today!"
Carly's face turned pale with pain. "It hurts! Stop hitting me! Adam, protect me!"
Adam tried to step forward, but Leo quickly held him back. "Mr. Alvarez, you should worry about yourself first. You're not in the clear either."
Adam fell silent.
Lucy's heart ached as she watched Carly being beaten. She threw herself over her daughter, shielding Carly with her own body. "Mrs. Alvarez Senior, why are you doing this? Stop at once!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
My dad please come novel it’s the same book with all the chapters but different characters instead of Celine her name is Wendy...
I am not happy with all of this. Why is carly moving so freely with ann. This is wrong...
You'll piss again with the next chapters. Its all about hailey, declan and erwan....
I found a link with the same story but different character name with 1k+ chapters ☺️...
this is getting absurd and funnier...so are we gonna some sci-fi alien or time travelling next...author getting dummier... I just want to point out that every single char forgets what the atrocious things carly did and was never punished they practically ignore every deed she'd done and she goes unscathed and starts doing some witchcraft sh*t...
It's been over a year since i started reading this book. Now...i guess this will take more years before it ends...hahhah enemel...
Seriously???? I really wanted to laugh. This is ridiculous! Unbelievable. Medicine to witchcraft????🤣 You're just dragging it. Reveal who the real daughter of the Hampton!!!!...
Can't you just reveal the truth of Celine heritage ??...
Not again..is there any fast forward button?...
this is so annoying. the happy moments of celine and adam are way too shorter than their problems. this is the kind of story that will make the readers lose their interest. to the author, you are so disappointing. i hope you can give the story the justice it deserves....
