Carly sank into the couch, forcing herself to think clearly. What was her next move?
Grace had vanished, and Adam was undoubtedly aware of it by now. He was likely with Celine right now, and the two of them were probably planning their next move against her.
Carly wasn't about to let this opportunity slip away. She was determined to make Celine disappear for good.
With that thought, Carly quickly grabbed her phone and sent a message to Celine.
In the CEO's office at Alvarez Group, Celine's phone suddenly chimed. She glanced at the screen—it was a message from an unknown number.
"If you want Bella to live, go somewhere secluded and answer my call. Remember, if anyone else finds out, she will be killed on the spot."
Celine's heart skipped a beat. The kidnappers had finally made their move.
She had been preparing for this moment. As long as they acted, there would be traces she could follow.
The phone number was generated through a virtual network, confirming how cautious and calculated the kidnappers were.
Sitting in his office chair, Adam heard the ping of the text message. He looked up at Celine. "Your phone just went off. Who's texting you?"
Celine knew she couldn't let anyone else in on this.
She quickly picked up her phone. "Hailey."
Adam gave a brief nod.
Just then, Leo entered the office, his voice barely above a whisper. "Mr. Alvarez, our men still haven't found any trace of Ms. Bella or Mrs. Alvarez. But no news is good news—the kidnappers haven't made any moves yet. For now, they should be safe."
Adam nodded in agreement, pulling out a map. "Continue searching these areas..."
As Adam and Leo were engrossed in their conversation, Celine quietly stood and left the room.
In a secluded corner, her phone rang.
She answered right away. "Hello? Who are you? Do you have Bella and Mrs. Alvarez? Why did you take them?"
A distorted, mechanical voice came through the phone.
"Yes, Bella and Mrs. Alvarez are with me."

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...
