Nigel found the situation even more amusing. "I know Celine is the same age as my daughter. So what?"
"Don't you think it's… shameless to be holding her like this?" Adam retorted.
For the first time in his life, Nigel was called shameless.
Eren said in a low voice, "Mr. Alvarez, please mind your words. Mr. Hampton considers you a junior, but you should still show respect to your seniors."
Lucy stood frozen in shock. She never imagined she would live to see the world's richest man and a rising business tycoon gripping the same woman, both ready to fight over Celine.
She knew that Adam had thought Nigel had feelings for Celine.
There was nothing wrong with Celine and Carly being the same age. A man of Nigel's wealth and power had countless young women throwing themselves at him.
However, Nigel was Celine's father.
Lucy struggled to process what was happening. Nothing made sense anymore.
After being pulled by two guys at the same time, Celine felt even dizzier.
Did these two men even consider how she felt?
She then started to struggle. "Let me go!"
Adam looked at Nigel and said, "Mr. Hampton, did you hear that? She told you to let go."
Nigel responded, "I think she was talking to you."
"You—"
Celine shouted, "I meant both of you!"
Adam looked at Nigel reluctantly. "Mr. Hampton, Celine wants both of us to let go. I'll count to three, and we release her at the same time."
Nigel didn't argue and gave a slight nod.
Adam said, "One, two, three…"
Adam and Nigel released Celine at the same time.
She glanced up at him and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I saw him hugging you just now," Adam said, his voice tinged with jealousy.
Celine was speechless. "Mr. Alvarez, what exactly are you thinking? Mr. Hampton is my elder. I felt dizzy just now, and he was only helping me out!"
She had no idea what was going through Adam's head.
However, Adam was on high alert. Celine always seemed to attract admirers, one after another. Who knew what Nigel was thinking about her?
Adam remarked, "He was just helping you out of kindness? The Mr. Hampton I know isn't that kind and generous. He's always cold and distant with everyone!"
Adam was well aware of Nigel's personality. Though Nigel hadn't interacted much with Celine and always seemed indifferent, Adam sensed that there was something different in how he treated her.
Before Celine could respond, a gentle voice came from the doorway. "Adam, I'm right here. Are you talking behind my back?"
Nigel had followed them and was now standing at the door.
Adam turned to look at him, his expression dark and unfriendly, as if he were sizing up a rival.

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🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️...
