Hailey felt awkward. She hadn't meant to do it. She had only wanted to avoid Jonah, but instead, she had crashed right into his arms.
As she looked at his handsome face, memories from last night flooded her mind like a tidal wave. He had pinned her down and kissed her, calling her "Joanne".
Hailey quickly reached out and pushed Jonah away, taking two steps back herself.
She felt extremely uncomfortable and stammered, "Sorry."
As Jonah looked at her flushed face and awkwardness, he smiled and said, "It's fine. It's no big deal. Why are you so nervous?"
Hailey was silent.
After all, it made sense. They had already broken up. She was the one still flustered, while he had clearly moved on and started a new life. His indifference toward her said it all—he was over her.
Hailey felt pathetic. She should be as confident as Jonah.
With Aileen around, there was no reason for him and her to avoid each other.
Hailey adjusted her mindset. "Sorry."
Jonah grabbed a bowl and a spoon. "Let's eat."
Aileen pulled Hailey down to sit beside her. "Hailey, come eat."
Hailey nodded. "Okay."
Jonah checked Aileen's temperature. She still had a slight fever. "This fever keeps coming back. I'll take care of you for the next few days."
Aileen nodded happily. "Okay."
Hailey figured that with Jonah around, there wasn't much need for her to stay. "Aileen, since your brother's here to look after you, I'll head home."
It was just too awkward being in the same room as Jonah.
Hailey went quiet.
Aileen blinked, confused. "Hailey, who's Lester?"
"Lester is—"
Hailey tried to explain, but Jonah cut her off again. "Lester Larden's a university professor. Smart, well-bred, and easy on the eyes. Clearly, Ms. Young has excellent taste."
Hailey said nothing.
She looked at Jonah. He was obviously being sarcastic. What had she done to deserve this kind of treatment?
Aileen smiled. "Well, Lester sounds great! Hailey, go on then! Have fun dating Prof. Larden!"
As she said that, Aileen felt a sharp, chilly gaze settle on her.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
if there is already a surveillance video as evidence for the poisoning of Hailey, why go all the trouble of pretending? Celine is also pregnant right? What is happening to them, and what about Adam's headaches ......
Why is this writer like this! Seems it’s going to be a never ending story!!! Rebecca or Melody, why is she here again!!! Don’t these female characters move on!!! Goshhhhh...
A man with a team of invisible bodyguards that only appear on orders and disappear in time of troubles. Hmm😆🤏...
When will Hailey show that she is Adam's cousin and be ruthless? Joanne needs to be put in her place and realize Jonah does not want her. Ewan is just as bad as she is. Hailey needs to get help from Celine or Adam if she doesn't want Jonah to find out what's happening....
If the focus has to go on other characters in the book, at least make it more interesting! They were separated for three years, and still having love rivals! Especially one from the past!!! Why can’t Ewan and Joanne move in together and move on!!...
Imagine the long read if they decide to switch back to Adam and Celine. Not reading this with the same enthusiasm from the beginning....
How does anyone in their senses meet up with someone who almost hurt them and their unborn child. This author is dumb and needs to wrap this crap up. All of a sudden Hailey and kala are playing Celine and Carly's role as another character. Nonsense....
Is this still story for Celine and Adam?...
And yet again, they get away with evil!!!...
That’s gruesome to have 2 months pregnancy forcibly terminated by other characters . What kind of hospital doctors is that ?...
