He reached out and pulled Hailey into a tight embrace.
Declan sobbed uncontrollably. "Hailey, I don't have a mother anymore. I don't have a father or a mother."
Hailey held him just as tightly. This was the first time he had ever let his guard down and allowed someone to see him so vulnerable.
She nodded. "I know, Declan. You still have Aileen and me. I'll always be here for you."
Then, she rose onto her toes, cupped his face in her hands, and pressed a gentle kiss to his forehead.
This time, her kiss was full of tender affection.
Declan held her again, pulling her back into his arms.
…
Declan had to leave, but the hospital took care of Pamela's final arrangements. Hailey and Aileen brought Pamela's ashes home.
Hailey carefully placed the urn and Pamela's memorial plaque on the small table, arranging a few candles and fresh flowers around them.
Aileen clasped her hands together and closed her eyes for a moment of silent prayer.
"Aileen, we'll keep vigil tonight. You're coming home with me tomorrow," Hailey said.
Aileen hesitated. "Hailey, I want to stay here."
"No, it's not safe for you to be alone," Hailey said firmly. "You're coming with me, no arguments."
Aileen nodded reluctantly. "Alright."
Hailey gave her a reassuring smile and gently patted her head. "There's plenty of room at my house. My dad and housekeeper are wonderful people; they'll love having you there. You don't have to be afraid. It's late, and you have school tomorrow. Your exams are coming up. Go get some rest—I'll stay up."
Aileen shook her head. "I want to stay up with Mom too."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
I really love this novel. I would also like to see the end of it. It has been stretched out for far too long. Also, please can you release more Chapters each day. Thank you...
It's a good novel but please author don't stretch it so much because then as a reader I began to loose interest..I like drama but not too much drama like indian serials ...so please soon reach to an end where celine and Adam got happy ending without any secrets between them and after that you can start a new series about hailey and declan...
