The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 920

Hailey's attempts to break free were futile.

Jonah's strong arms held her as he walked into the building, undeterred by her protests.

A few employees passing by couldn't help but stare.

One of them called out, "Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Pilsner!"

Hailey's face flushed crimson at the mention of "Mrs. Pilsner".

"Jonah, put me down! People are staring!" she exclaimed.

Jonah kept walking, a playful smirk curving his lips. "Let them stare. I can't exactly block their view, can I?"

As they passed, more and more employees turned their heads. "Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Pilsner!"

Hailey's face flushed an even deeper shade of red. She buried her face in Jonah's chest, desperately hoping no one would notice her.

But the murmurs from the employees drifted to her ears.

"Oh my God, Mr. Pilsner is carrying Mrs. Pilsner to work!"

"Wait, isn't he with Ms. Lilton?"

"Clearly not."

"Didn't Mr. Pilsner once carry Ms. Hailey like this? This lady looks just like her!"

"Mr. Pilsner and Ms. Hailey are a perfect match. They're both absolutely stunning."

Hailey struggled to block out the chatter, almost wanting to cover her ears in desperation.

Jonah glanced down at her. Upon noticing her embarrassed expression, he let out a soft chuckle.

…

Jonah swept Hailey into his office and set her down on the couch.

Hailey immediately tried to break free, but Jonah's grip on her wrists was firm, pinning her in place. "Where do you think you're going?" he asked.

"Let go of me! I don't want to be here!" she cried out.

"You're such a troublemaker."

Jonah's lips curled into a teasing grin. "Well, since you won't take it now, maybe we should try a few more times before you do."

Hailey slapped him across the face.

She didn't hit him hard—the light touch of her palm against his cheek felt more like a playful, flirtatious gesture between lovers.

Jonah froze for a heartbeat. He chuckled, pressing his tongue against the inside of his cheek. "Have you forgotten, Ms. Hailey? Every slap just means another round for me."

He lowered his head again, ready to seize her lips.

Just then, a sharp knock echoed through the room, and Jeremy's voice called from outside, "Mr. Pilsner!"

Taking advantage of the interruption, Hailey quickly pushed Jonah away. "Jonah, someone's outside!"

"I can send them away!"

"Jonah, this is your office, for goodness' sake! You're supposed to be working here!"

Hailey tried to snap him out of it, but he appeared like a hungry wolf, consumed by his desire.

Jonah held her gaze for what felt like an eternity before finally letting her go and standing up.
