The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 97

Celine suddenly exploded in a fit of giggles as her eyes shone under the blanket.

"What's so funny?" Adam asked, his voice husky.

She looked at him and asked, "Should I say yes or no to that?"

Her coquettish words were the right amount of allure. It was enchanting and attractive.

Adam laughed. He leaned in and kissed her again.

…

In the master bedroom of Tate Manor the next day, Lucy lay in Hayden's arms, satisfied. She wrapped her arms around Hayden's neck and complained playfully, "You got me aching."

Hayden pinched her chin and smirked, "Satisfied now?"

Lucy harrumphed flirtatiously in response.

Carly had given Hayden a call, and Hayden came home immediately.

Hayden asked Lucy, who was in his arms, "Had Larry really taken Celine away?"

"Yes. Celine is finally gone. Our Carly's going to become Mrs. Alvarez very soon. You're about to be the father-in-law of the richest man in Mercity, honey!"

Hayden guffawed. He was elated. "You've done well this time, Lucy dear."

Lucy was in bliss. An entire night had passed. Celine was sure to be Larry's plaything by now. No one would disrupt her happiness from now on.

She looked happily at Hayden and scoffed coldly in her heart. Hayden would never know whose daughter Celine was.

Lucy and Hayden left their room and saw Carly in the living room.

Carly was seated on the couch toying with her phone with a frown on her face.

"Help, Mrs. Tate!"

Larry's voice had just rang before he barged in. The injuries on his body were aggravated, and it caused his face to ashen in pain.

He plopped onto the carpeted ground immediately as he entered the living room. He couldn't look more beat up than that.

Lucy, Carly, and Hayden jumped to their feet in shock as they stared at Larry, flabbergasted. Why was he here?

"Didn't you just take Celine away yesterday, Larry? Why did you come back?"

Hayden questioned. "What's going on?"

"I did leave with Celine, Mr. and Mrs. Tate. However, Mr. Alvarez had closed off all the exits on land. He came and rescued Celine!"

What? Adam?
