Hailey looked at Declan. "Declan, are you staying tonight?"
Declan had just finished coaxing Stella and had snuck back. He still had to leave before dawn, but for now, he had a little time.
"I'll stay until you fall asleep," he said.
Hailey lifted the blanket and patted the empty space beside her. "Then get in. It's warm."
Declan slid under the covers, lying beside her. Hailey curled up next to him, resting her head on his arm. Then, she gazed up at him.
Declan felt a piece of his heart soften. He reached out and pulled Hailey into his arms.
The two of them held each other tightly. Declan glanced at Aileen, who was sleeping soundly beside Hailey.
"When did Aileen fall asleep?" he asked.
"Around 10:00 pm. She was studying until then—her exams start tomorrow. She'll be testing for three days. I'll take her to the exam hall in the morning, so you don't have to worry."
Hailey spoke softly, reassuring him that everything was under control.
Declan smiled slightly. This felt like how his parents used to be—his father would be out working while his mother took care of everything at home.
However, Hailey had no obligation to do this for him.
He was tied up with things he couldn't control, yet Hailey had always been by his side.
Lowering his gaze, Declan murmured, "Hailey, I..."
Hailey reached up and covered his mouth with her hand. "I've heard enough words of gratitude. Don't say anymore. Everything I do, I do willingly. Besides, Aileen is so smart—give her ten years, and she'll be someone amazing. When that happens, I can ride on her coattails. Consider it an investment."

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...
