Adam glanced at his phone—it was an unfamiliar number.
"Mr. Alvarez, I don't recognize this number. Do you know who's calling?" Leo asked.
Adam frowned. He had no idea who it could be. Without wasting any time, he answered the call.
A moment later, a familiar voice came through the receiver, clear and steady. "Hello, Mr. Alvarez, it's me—Celine."
Celine?
Adam froze in place, completely caught off guard. He never expected her to be the one to call him. It had been three years since she changed her number.
He had assumed she had already boarded her flight, leaving everything behind. Yet now, here she was, calling him.
A rush of excitement surged through his chest.
He tightened his grip on the phone, his voice filled with anxiety. "Celine, have you left?"
"Mr. Alvarez, I was about to, but something's happened. Bella and Mrs. Alvarez have been kidnapped!"
What? Bella and Grace had been taken?
Adam sprang to his feet, his voice seething with fury. "What do you mean? Who took them?"
Celine quickly recounted the details of the situation.
Without a moment's hesitation, Adam ordered, "Wait for me at the airport—I'm on my way!"
"Mr. Alvarez, did something happen to Ms. Bella and Mrs. Alvarez?" Leo asked.
Adam's gaze darkened. "I can't believe someone would dare to kidnap my family on my own turf. Whoever did this must be looking for trouble. I will hunt them down and find out exactly who they are!"
…
Celine and the maid waited at the airport. Soon, Adam arrived, his tall, commanding figure cutting through the cold air. The biting wind followed him inside, amplifying the aura of power he carried.

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...
