"Joanne, I honestly thought you were a friend!" Justin snapped. "But to you, I was just a means to an end.
"If I could go back, I'd wish we'd never met. Don't expect any sympathy from me. You made your choices. Now live with them. Spend the rest of your life in prison for all I care."
Upon realizing that even Justin had abandoned her, Joanne was left in utter shock. The thought of prison was unbearable. She simply couldn't accept it.
She turned to Hailey and snapped, "This is all your fault, Hailey! I had such a bright future ahead of me. You're the one who ruined everything!"
"Even now, you still show no remorse. Joanne, it was your own greed that brought you down," Hailey replied.
Jonah had no patience left for Ewan and Joanne. "Take them out," he commanded.
Without a word, they were escorted out of the room.
Once they were gone, Justin turned to Hailey and said, "Ms. Hailey, I owe you an apology."
When she saw Justin lower his head, Hailey offered a reassuring smile. "Justin, you don't have to apologize. You weren't to blame. You just trusted Joanne a bit too much."
Justin hurried to clarify, "Ms. Hailey, I was truly deceived by Joanne. No matter what happened, I never intended to harm you or the baby you're carrying."
"Justin, what's the use of apologizing now?" Jonah interjected.
"Jonah…" Justin begged. "We've been friends for so long. Please… just give me one more chance. I swear I'll make things right."
Hailey's lips lifted into a smile. "Alright, Mr. Pilsner, stop messing with Justin."
"Ms. Hailey, if you still won't forgive me, I'll have no choice but to get down on my knees and beg for your forgiveness!"
Just as Justin began to kneel, Hailey quickly reached out and stopped him. "Justin, get up."
He looked up at her. "Ms. Hailey, does that mean you've forgiven me?"
"Justin, I know you're Jonah's best friend, and everything you did was out of loyalty to him. So yes, I forgive you," Hailey said. "But from now on, you need to be more aware and cautious. Don't let anyone take advantage of you again."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
Why is this writer like this! Seems it’s going to be a never ending story!!! Rebecca or Melody, why is she here again!!! Don’t these female characters move on!!! Goshhhhh...
A man with a team of invisible bodyguards that only appear on orders and disappear in time of troubles. Hmm😆🤏...
When will Hailey show that she is Adam's cousin and be ruthless? Joanne needs to be put in her place and realize Jonah does not want her. Ewan is just as bad as she is. Hailey needs to get help from Celine or Adam if she doesn't want Jonah to find out what's happening....
If the focus has to go on other characters in the book, at least make it more interesting! They were separated for three years, and still having love rivals! Especially one from the past!!! Why can’t Ewan and Joanne move in together and move on!!...
Imagine the long read if they decide to switch back to Adam and Celine. Not reading this with the same enthusiasm from the beginning....
How does anyone in their senses meet up with someone who almost hurt them and their unborn child. This author is dumb and needs to wrap this crap up. All of a sudden Hailey and kala are playing Celine and Carly's role as another character. Nonsense....
Is this still story for Celine and Adam?...
And yet again, they get away with evil!!!...
That’s gruesome to have 2 months pregnancy forcibly terminated by other characters . What kind of hospital doctors is that ?...
So until when would Hailey keep her pregnancy from Jonah...
