The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 878

Hailey had actually turned off her phone.

Why would she turn it off?

Jonah quickly got dressed, and that was when he saw the note on the nightstand—it was left by Hailey.

He picked it up and read her elegant handwriting.

The message was short. It read, "Jonah Pilsner, let's break up."

Jonah's pupils shrank in disbelief. He thought he was hallucinating.

He read the single line over and over again.

No, he hadn't misread it. Hailey had written that she wanted to break up.

How was that possible?

Last night, she had accepted his proposal. They had agreed to get married as soon as they returned.

And now she was breaking up with him? Why?

Jonah packed his things in a flash and rushed downstairs. Joe greeted him cheerfully, "You're up. I saw your wife leave earlier."

Jonah asked, "Do you know where she went?"

Joe replied, "She went to the airport. She said she's heading back first."

Hailey had gone back to the Capitol on her own.

Jonah's lips pressed into a hard line. She broke up with him without any explanation and flew home alone.

He immediately headed for the airport and caught the next flight back.

At the airport in the Capitol, Jeremy was waiting. "Mr. Pilsner."

Jonah got into the backseat of the black luxury car. "Did you find out where Hailey is?"

"She returned home after landing," Jeremy reported.

So, she was home.

"Take me to the Lambert residence."

"Yes, sir."

She stayed silent.

"I can pretend nothing happened. I've already started preparing for the wedding. Whatever kind of ceremony or gown you want, I'll have someone—"

"That's enough, Mr. Pilsner!" Hailey cut him off.

She had to. If she let him keep going, she was afraid she'd give in.

"Did you see the note I left on the nightstand?" she asked.

He had driven all the way here and hadn't mentioned the note once. She had no choice but to bring it up herself.

"I saw it. And?"

Her grip tightened around her phone. "Let's not waste time dancing around the truth. I meant every word I wrote—"

"I don't accept it!" Jonah cut her off.

Hailey's heart skipped a beat. The words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.

"Do you hear me, Hailey? I don't agree to breaking up!" Jonah's voice roared through the phone.

He staunchly refused to break up with her.
