Bella sat quietly in her chair with a lollipop in her hand, waiting for her mother, Celine.
Suddenly, two men in black approached. One of them clamped a hand over her mouth, silencing her before she could react.
In the next instant, they scooped her up and carried her away.
Her eyes widened in terror. She wanted to scream, to call for Celine, but with her mouth covered, not a single sound escaped.
The lollipop slipped from her fingers and hit the ground.
After that, the two men carried Bella away.
Meanwhile, Celine was on the phone. "Perry, what's going on?"
"Celine, I was rear-ended on my way to the airport. It's just a minor accident, but I might be late," Perry explained.
Celine let out a breath of relief.
Fortunately, it was just a minor accident. She had feared something worse.
"As long as you're okay. I'll delay the flight, so just get here when you can."
"Alright, Celine."
After they hung up, she turned around. "Bella, your Daddy Perry—"
Her words caught in her throat.
The chair where Bella had been sitting was empty.
Celine's pulse pounded. "Bella? Bella!"
Celine called out desperately, looking around, but Bella was nowhere in sight. Where did she go?
Then, she spotted a lollipop on the floor and quickly rushed to pick it up.
It was Bella's! Something was wrong. Bella was in danger!

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
Can’t wait for when Nigel will discover Celine is his child...
I was enjoying Celine being a formidable woman until the author put her abuser back in her way to make it seem she is weak willed with no physical control. This saddens me....
Regardless of how "sorry" the abusive man is. His regret is his own burden to carry....
When a woman divorces a man because he ill treated her, authors of these books, should stop making a women look desperate to go back with the abusive man. The real world is not like that. Many many women value themselves too much to return to their abusers....
Please this story is going round in circles……this writer🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️...
After 3 years….these two are still dumb! Writer please hurry up...
What a way for both Hayden and Lucy to go...
I'm so invested with this novel. Both Declan-Hailey and Celine-Adam's story. But, Declan and Hailey gives me more heartache. I thought they would get their happy ending after what Declan have been through. But just like what others said, maybe the author is very sad that's why she don't want her characters to be happy. 😭 Ewan is so evil...
This writer is very sad! Why should Ewan come back to hurt Declan!...
So let’s move to Celina and Adam...
