Just then, there was a knock at the door. Jonah said, "Come in."
The door to his office opened. Jeremy Leclair, Jonah's assistant, walked in. "Mr. Pilsner, we contacted the world's top plastic surgeon, but he said your face likely can't be restored.
"The burn area is too extensive, and it's been three years. He's not confident enough to take the case, so he declined."
It was the same story again.
Jonah wasn't surprised. He had already consulted many doctors, and every time they saw his ruined face, they shook their heads.
He would never go back to how he looked before.
Hailey used to like him so much. Now, looking at his face, she probably didn't anymore. That had to be why she didn't want to be with him.
He could feel her resistance and refusal on the bed today. He acted on impulse.
"You can go," he told Jeremy.
"Yes, Mr. Pilsner."
Jeremy then left.
Jonah stood alone in his office, staring at the chat window with Hailey. She still hadn't replied.
He curled his lips into a bitter smile, then still typed a message to her. "Goodnight."
…
Hailey rested for two days. Today, Aileen was coming home, so she got up early and started preparing all of Aileen's favourite things.
Just then, Miranda rushed in. "Hailey, something happened!"
Hailey was startled. "Mom, what happened?"
"Hailey, that worker who was causing trouble had already started to waver. He was about to take the money and sign the settlement. Once the settlement's signed, it's over. But just now, your dad called. He said the worker suddenly vanished. No one can find him."
What?
Hailey felt her heart sink. "What do you mean vanished? If something happens to that worker, this whole thing will explode!"
"Your dad said the same. That worker is crucial. But now, he's just gone!"

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....
