Anne lifted her hand, intending to wipe the corner of Nigel's lips. "Nigel, are you okay?"
Before she could touch him, Nigel took a step back. "I'm heading home."
With that, he left.
Anne's hand froze midair. Now that no one else was around, she dropped the gentle act, her expression twisting with resentment and malice.
She hated Fiona.
Anne was the daughter of the Hampton family's driver. Years ago, her father had died saving Nigel's father, leaving her an orphan.
Out of gratitude, Nigel had always looked after her, and she had grown up alongside Nigel.
She had loved him for as long as she could remember, convinced that one day she would marry him and become his wife.
However, out of nowhere, the Hamptons and the Jakemans arranged a marriage alliance, and Nigel married Fiona.
At first, Anne consoled herself with the thought that Fiona was nothing more than a bargaining chip. She had always thought Fiona was just a woman doomed to a lonely life in a loveless marriage, but that wasn't the case.
Fiona was a seductress. The moment she married into the family, she latched onto Nigel and never let go.
Anne had stood outside Nigel's study one night two years into their marriage. The door wasn't fully closed, just slightly ajar.
When she peered through the gap, she saw them. There was a stack of documents on the desk when Nigel was seated in his office chair.
Fiona straddled his lap, and her slip dress slipped off one shoulder, revealing bare, silken skin.
Nigel's voice was hoarse as he said, "I still have a lot of work to do tonight."
Fiona clung to him and said, "Stop working, darling. I want it."
Nigel pulled her into his arms and replied, "Let's go to the bedroom then."
She refused. "Let's do it right here in your study. Don't you like that?"
He tilted his head back and kissed her, letting her hands slip under his expensive dress shirt and roam wherever they pleased.
Breathless, she murmured, "I heard you hired a very pretty secretary."
"Who?"

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🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️...
