The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 753

"They're already closing?" Celine wondered, rising to her feet.

She had been waiting at city hall the entire day. People had come and gone, yet Adam never appeared.

She turned to the staff member and asked, "Excuse me, would it be alright if I made one more call?"

The staff member nodded. "Sweetheart, you've waited all day. We'll stay a little longer with you. If he truly wants to marry you, he'll come. If he doesn't, then maybe it's time to stop waiting."

Celine blinked lightly. "Alright."

She pulled out her phone and dialed Adam's number again.

The same familiar ringtone echoed in her ear. It rang a few times, and then a mechanical voice cut in. "The number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later."

Still, Adam didn't pick up the phone.

The staff member asked, "He didn't pick up again?"

Celine shook her head. "No."

Another staff member walked over. "Sweetheart, we're closing up now. It's time to lock the doors."

Celine gave a polite nod. "I understand. Thank you for waiting with me. I'll leave now."

With that, she left.

Behind her, she heard the two staff members speaking in hushed tones.

"That poor girl waited here all day. As soon as I saw he was late, I had a feeling he wasn't going to show. No one will be late for their own wedding registration."

"Exactly. Being late for something like this just means he doesn't value her. He probably never intended to go through with it. She should really think twice about this marriage."

"I mean, look at her. She's so beautiful. He has no idea what he's giving up."

The two of them felt sorry for Celine and didn't bother hiding it.

Celine stepped out of city hall. The cold wind brushed against her face, sending a chill through her body.

She had been ready to let go of the past and start over with Adam, but he had poured ice-cold water over that fragile hope, extinguishing every bit of warmth she had left.

Just then, her phone rang.

Could it be Adam?
