Hailey's face tightened with pain.
Jonah lay over her, pressing a kiss to her pale earlobe. "This is your punishment, Hailey!" he exclaimed.
She responded without hesitation, biting down hard on his shoulder.
Jonah's eyes were bloodshot. He pinned Hailey's wrists down, forcing himself on her.
Hailey couldn't make sense of how they'd ended up here again—they had broken up, but somehow, their bodies had found their way back to each other.
He had even just returned from a date with Hannah.
Hailey felt a wave of unease settle in her stomach. She was still in the early stages of her pregnancy, and the thought of anything too intense made her anxious. She worried it could harm the baby.
"Jonah, please… be gentle. It hurts," she pleaded.
Nonetheless, Jonah had no intention of showing Hailey any tenderness. To him, she had played with him one too many times.
On his way back, he had already decided how he would make her pay for it.
With a harsh, mocking laugh, he taunted, "Then suffer through it!"
Hailey's brow furrowed. "Jonah, it really hurts. Please… don't do this. I'm begging you."
Jonah tried to block her out, but as he glanced down, he saw the color fading from her face and her features tightening in pain.
He reached out, gripping her face between his fingers. "Where does it hurt?"
"My stomach," Hailey murmured.
Jonah glanced down at her flat abdomen. "You're lying. How could your stomach hurt?"
"It does… it really does. My stomach..."
She was pregnant, after all.
But the words never left Hailey's lips—she couldn't bring herself to say them.
Jonah's eyes lingered on her abdomen. "What's going on with your stomach?"
A moment later, realization flickered in his eyes. "Your stomach…"
Had he just figured it out?
Hailey knew there was no turning back tonight—and her body had already begun to betray her.
She had always craved him, always longed for the way he touched her.
But the baby was something she couldn't ignore.
Without a word, she pressed both hands firmly against Jonah's chest, pushing him back onto the bed.
She quickly turned and positioned herself on top of him.
Jonah's gaze burned with intense desire. His hands tightened around her waist as a low laugh escaped him. "What are you trying to do?"
"I like taking control," she replied.
Jonah's thoughts drifted to the first time they crossed into forbidden territory. In that small, intimate room, the spirited Hailey had straddled him.
Together, they embarked on a journey of discovery, leading them to an unforgettable climax.
Why did Jonah love Hailey so much? Because she symbolized the most beautiful, defining moment of his life.
Jonah leaned in and kissed her reddened lips. "Alright."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
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 ?...
So until when would Hailey keep her pregnancy from Jonah...
