The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 405

Celine asked Adam to step outside, saying she needed to talk to him.

Carly immediately raised her voice in protest and grabbed Adam's muscular arm. "Celine, if you have something to say, say it here."

She refused to let Adam leave.

Celine looked at the two of them. She was pregnant now, and why should she bear this alone?

She couldn't let Adam and Carly be all lovey-dovey. No, she had to tell Adam about this.

Celine said, "Carly this isn't something I can share with you. I need to speak to Mr. Alvarez. Mr. Alvarez, I'll wait for you outside."

With that, she left the room.

Carly clung to Adam and said, "Adam, don't go."

Adam pulled his arm away and responded, "I'll be right back."

He turned and walked out.

Carly was furious as she called out, "Adam!"

…

Adam stepped into the hallway, and Celine was waiting for him ahead.

He walked toward her. "You needed to talk to me?"

Looking at him, Celine said, "Yes, I do."

Adam said, "Go ahead."

Celine paused for a moment, unsure how to begin.

Adam asked, "Why are you not saying anything?"

Celine asked, "Mr. Alvarez, have you ever thought about becoming a father?"

Adam froze for a moment, clearly caught off guard by the question. "Why do you ask?"

Celine curved her lips into a faint smile. "I just thought you weren't young anymore. I was just asking."

Adam shook his head. "No, I don't like children."

He paused, as though unsure of what to say next.

Celine quietly watched him, waiting for him to continue.

She decided to wait and see what he wanted to say. Did he want her to save Carly, or did he want Carly to live and her to die?

While looking into Celine's clear eyes, Adam couldn't bring himself to speak.

Since he didn't, she would.

"Mr. Alvarez, is my heart a perfect match for Carly's?" she asked.

Adam's tall frame stiffened, his expression frozen. "How do you know?"

"Carly told me just now."

Adam frowned. This was something he hadn't wanted Carly to know, but somehow, she did, and she had even told Celine about it.

Looking at Adam, Celine said, "Mr. Alvarez, saving Carly means I won't survive. Do you want me to die?"
