The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 868

Celine smiled. "Come on, Bella, let's sit down."

"Okay!" Bella chirped.

Celine and Bella took one side, while Hailey and Jonah settled in across from them. The waiter began bringing out the dishes one by one.

"So, Celine, how are things going with Adam?" Hailey asked.

Celine didn't want to burden Hailey with any worries. She knew that Hailey and Jonah were in the midst of a sweet reunion, a time for them to savor each other's company without a care in the world.

"Don't worry, Hailey. Things with Adam will be taken care of soon."

Hailey nodded. "I'm glad to hear that."

Jonah spoke up. "Ms. Tate, if there's anything Mr. Alvarez needs assistance with, please feel free to let me know."

Celine observed Jonah—once a struggling nobody, he had now risen to become a prominent figure in the business world. When paired with Hailey—a wealthy, pampered young lady—they truly made an ideal couple.

Love between equals had always been the most perfect kind, and theirs was no exception.

Celine looked genuinely pleased, her gaze fixed on Jonah's face. "Mr. Pilsner, did sulfuric acid cause those burns on your face?"

Jonah glanced over at Hailey.

Hailey smiled warmly and said, "Jonah, I've already mentioned it to Celine. She's Dr. C, the nation-renowned genius. I was hoping she could help with your treatment."

Celine added, "Mr. Pilsner, if you don't mind, could you remove your mask? I'd like to take a closer look at your injuries."

Hailey's eyes were filled with both encouragement and hope as she looked at Jonah. "Jonah, I don't want you to feel like you have to hide forever. Celine might really be able to help you."

Jonah smiled faintly. "Ms. Tate, my face is badly scarred. I'm afraid it might be unsettling, especially for Bella."

With a bright smile, Bella chimed in, "Uncle Jonah, only people with ugly hearts are scary. I'm not scared at all!"

"Mr. Pilsner, I'm a doctor. It'll take much more than that to frighten me," Celine added.

Celine nodded firmly. "Yes, I can perform facial reconstructive surgery for Mr. Pilsner. However, there's one catch—I'll need a very rare medicinal herb."

"What kind of herb?" Hailey asked.

"It's called snow lotus," Celine replied. "It's extremely rare and only blooms once every 50 years. You and Mr. Pilsner will need to find a way to obtain it."

With the hope of restoring his face, Jonah nodded confidently. "Okay, consider it done."

Hailey smiled brightly. "We'll find it, Celine, no matter what it takes."

Celine nodded. "Good. That's the spirit."

The four of them enjoyed a warm and lively dinner together. Eventually, it was time to part ways.

Hailey scooped Bella into her arms. "Bella, how about spending the night with me? We could have a sleepover!"
