The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 859

Jonah wanted Hailey to be with him?

She was single, and he was too—nothing was stopping them now.

Still, they hadn't seen each other for three years. Hailey felt her cheeks flush as she replied, "I'll need to think about it."

Jonah said, "Ms. Hailey, I'm not giving you the option to think. I'm going to be with you."

Then he kissed her deeply.

Her heart bloomed with warmth, and it felt sweet like honey.

He really was too domineering.

…

Jonah carried Hailey into his private office, helped her bathe, and gently laid her down on the bed. She was completely exhausted and fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

After taking a quick shower himself, Jonah slid into bed beside her and wrapped his arms around her.

It had been three years and six days since he last held her like this.

He kissed her on the forehead and said gently, "Goodnight, my lady."

They slept in until the morning light. When Hailey woke, she was still in Jonah's arms. He hadn't woken up yet.

As soon as she moved, his eyes opened.

He hugged her tightly and asked in a low, husky voice, "You're awake?"

Hailey shifted slightly, wincing at the soreness in her body. She raised a tiny fist and gave him a light punch.

"I'm so sore…"

Jonah wore a faint smile and said, "Then you'd better start working on your stamina, my lady."

Hailey fell silent.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Mr. Pilsner?" It was Jeremy's voice.

Hailey glanced around, realizing that she was in his private lounge. She had no memory of how they had gotten there from the car the night before.

"Someone's knocking," she said.

Hailey turned to look at him. "Who said I needed you to support me?"

Jonah responded, "You won't let me? Did you already forget what I said last night? We're together now!"

He took her soft hand and kissed it lightly.

Hailey quickly pulled her hand away. "If you want to be my boyfriend, you'll have to work for it."

Jonah chuckled. "Of course. I wouldn't say no to any of your requests. From now on, I'll do whatever you say, Ms. Hailey."

She gave a satisfied nod. "Now that's more like it!"

Jonah stood and stretched. "I'll head to the meeting first. Stay here in my office—someone will bring you breakfast. Tonight, we'll have dinner together."

He had already planned out her day.

So this was what it felt like to be together?

Hailey nodded. "Alright."

Jonah leaned down, gave her a quick kiss, then walked out the door.
