The murmurs of the crowd immediately quieted down.
Lucy smirked triumphantly. "Celine, I know you hate me, but you can't just stand by and let Carly die, can you?"
Carly quickly chimed in, "Celine, you know I have a heart condition. Adam even spent a fortune to ask you to treat me, but you refused. You wanted to watch me die. How can you be so heartless?"
Carly and Lucy were tag-teaming, bringing up the issue of Carly's heart condition to shift the blame onto Celine.
Celine had expected this. She knew the duo had come prepared with a plan to corner her.
Celine's gaze was icy as she replied, "Carly, do you really not know why I didn't want to save you?"
Carly immediately put on a pitiful expression. "Celine, what did I do wrong? I was just a child back then. Why are you taking out your hatred for Mom on me? I'm innocent!"
"Innocent? Did you not conspire with those kidnappers to kill me?" Celine shot back.
Carly froze. Did Celine know?
Celine looked at Lucy and Carly with a cold smile. "Did you really think I wouldn't find out? Those kidnappers were hired by you. You wanted me dead!"
The crowd gasped in shock.
Adam pursed his lips as he turned to Carly. "Carly, did you do this?"
Carly quickly shook her head. "Adam, Celine is lying! Don't believe her! Celine, don't slander me like this. If you're going to accuse me, you'd better have proof!"
He handed the USB drive to Adam.
Adam reached out to take it, but Carly suddenly snatched it away. "Adam, don't look at it!"
Adam's expression darkened as he stared at Carly. "Why can't I see it? Carly, I'm giving you one chance to come clean. There's a big difference between you confessing and me finding out the truth myself."
Carly was visibly shaken. She had thought their plan was foolproof, that no one would ever find out.
Celine was supposed to die in that warehouse. If she had died, none of this would have happened.
Celine shot Carly a cold, mocking smile. "Carly, do you really think you can keep covering up the truth? Secrets don't stay buried forever. You're the one behind all of this!"

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🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️...
