Carly watched the entire scene unfold from upstairs in shock. She never expected Adam to show up.
She had repeatedly warned Celine not to tell anyone about this, so how did Adam get here?
Adam looked at Celine with concern. "Are you okay?"
Celine nodded. "I'm fine. You got here just in time."
She then picked up her phone and let out a cold laugh.
"Are you surprised that Adam showed up? I was the one who called him."
Carly froze, stunned by the revelation.
Celine continued, "When we spoke on the phone, you were very clear—don't tell anyone else. I assume it was Adam you're trying to keep this a secret from, and that's exactly why I told him. This way, I can turn things around."
Carly was speechless.
Celine's unexpected move ruined all of her careful scheming.
Every time they crossed paths, Carly lost.
Celine started scanning the private winery. "Adam's men have already surrounded the place. You better pray they don't catch you."
With that, she ended the call.
Upstairs, Carly was in full panic. She could see that Adam's men had the entire place surrounded.
Tonight had been a trap—Celine had lured her right into it.
She had to get out fast. With that, she quickly took off.
Downstairs, Adam reached over and buttoned up Celine's black coat for her.
Celine said, "The kidnapper is still here in this private winery. We must catch them tonight."
Adam nodded. "Understood."

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...
