When Adam heard the mention of Celine, his heart tightened. "Mom," he began cautiously.
Grace scolded, "Adam, I've told you before—I can turn a blind eye to the women around you, but don't get attached. This time, Mr. Hampton himself called to say you're refusing to marry Ms. Hampton because of this Celine. Is that true?"
Adam was honest. "Yes, it's true. Celine is the woman I love. I won't marry anyone else."
"You fool!" Grace snapped angrily. "Adam, you've been bewitched by this Celine! The marriage agreement between the Hampton and Alvarez families must be honored. Now that Ms. Hampton has returned, you need to prepare and marry her as soon as possible."
Adam frowned. "Mom..."
"Adam, I've already arranged for a private jet. I'll be arriving in Mercity tomorrow."
With that, the line went dead. Grace had hung up.
Adam stood outside for a moment, collecting his thoughts. Then, he got back into the car, started the engine, and said, "Celine, I'll take you home."
Celine nodded. "Alright."
Hailey curiously asked, "Mr. Alvarez, what did your mom say to you just now?"
Adam glanced at the rear-view mirror and met Celine's clear gaze. She was looking at him too.
After a brief pause, he replied, "My mother is coming to Mercity tomorrow."
He didn't elaborate on why.
Hailey's eyes widened. "Your mother is coming to Mercity? She has spent years in seclusion, rarely leaving her estate. She dislikes socializing and barely interacts with others. I can't believe she's actually coming here."
She turned to Adam. "Adam, you've been in Mercity for a long time now. Shouldn't you be returning to the Capitol soon?"
She shook her head. "I'm fine."
Adam's gaze darkened as he watched Perry's hand rest on her shoulder. His fingers curled into a fist at his side.
Celine leaned into Perry, resting her head against his chest. "Perry, let's go home."
Perry looked at Adam and said politely, "Mr. Alvarez, thank you for bringing Celine home. We'll be leaving now. Goodbye."
With that, he held Celine close and walked away.
Adam stood frozen in place, watching them.
He had seen every bit of Celine's intimacy with Perry. No matter how hard he tried to reach her, she was no longer his.

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....
