Chapter 108
It wasn’t as if she had pushed Carly down the stairs. Carly had done it to herself. Still, Adam’s reaction had been visceral seeing her injured leg, especially knowing she was the lead ballerina. He was heartbroken, deeply so.
Celine let out a bitter, self–deprecating chuckle.
Inside the VIP suite of the hospital, Carly’s leg had already been treated by the doctors.
Adam’s expression tightened as he asked the doctor, “Is her leg injured badly? Will this affect her ability to dance in the future?”
The doctor reassured him. “Mr. Alvarez, no need to worry. We conducted a thorough scan. Fortunately, it’s only a light wound. There was no damage to the muscles or bones. As long as she rests properly, she’ll be able to return to dancing without issue.”
With that, the doctor left.
Adam felt something touching his palm. Carly had reached out her slender hand, slipping it into Adam’s palm. Her delicate fingers curled around his.
Adam lowered his gaze to her pale face, which was tilted up toward him. “I’m fine, Adam. Don’t worry about me.”
He had been so visibly worried about her. It was exactly as she had hoped, but her heart was still warm and satisfied.
“Why did you throw yourself down the stairs?” Adam suddenly asked.
Carly froze, but she quickly recovered. She knew she couldn’t lie to him. She wasn’t planning on fooling him, either. “Adam, I’ve felt like you’ve been distant from me lately. I can’t feel your love anymore. I don’t feel safe.”
He didn’t deny it. Ever since the incident where she tried to use Mary as leverage, something between them had shifted. He had kept his distance, finding her less and less like the girl he had once met in the mountain cave.
Carly pouted slightly, tilting her face up toward him. “I understand that because of Mrs. Alvarez Senior’s health, you can’t divorce Celine for now. But starting today, I don’t want you two sharing a room anymore.
“Don’t think I don’t know you’ve been staying in the same room with her! I don’t want that, understand?”
It was true. Adam and Celine had shared a room. A bed, even. He had found himself unable to resist her beauty and the quiet allure she exuded. However, that
wasn’t right.
Carly was the one he had chosen, the one he wanted to be with. He had to put an end to this and stop giving Celine the chance to seduce him.
Adam held Carly closer, his voice soothing. “I’ve already arranged for Celine to attend Yorhine University. She’ll be staying on campus. From now on, there will be no more shared rooms.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
How can this be,Carly always gets away with everything and Celine intelligence is not working her at all....
Just as I thought. This could go on a few more chapters. But the bond between Fiona amd Celine is undeniable. Even without knowing that they are mother and daughter. Though I'm totally confused. Isn't there any resemblance between Celine and her parents? How couldn't they tell that she was their daughter?...
As expected of the dna results in favor of the wicked carly again.. so frustrating...
I hope the writer of this story will not prolong this…..what happened to the DNA…...
Can you upload more chapters per day, each chapter is very short you always keep us hanging...
Can’t wait for when Nigel will discover Celine is his child...
I was enjoying Celine being a formidable woman until the author put her abuser back in her way to make it seem she is weak willed with no physical control. This saddens me....
Regardless of how "sorry" the abusive man is. His regret is his own burden to carry....
When a woman divorces a man because he ill treated her, authors of these books, should stop making a women look desperate to go back with the abusive man. The real world is not like that. Many many women value themselves too much to return to their abusers....
Please this story is going round in circles……this writer🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️...
