Carly was in disbelief. She never expected Celine to be this bold to show up at the Hampton residence.
Carly said, "Celine, our relationship isn't that good that you can just drop by my house as a guest. My family doesn't welcome you. Please leave immediately!"
Carly already ordered her out.
Celine arched her willow-shaped eyebrows. Now that she had come to the Hampton family, she wasn't leaving.
Celine looked at Nigel. "Ms. Hampton, I came to the Hampton residence as a guest with Mr. Hampton's permission. Mr. Hampton, you wouldn't go back on your word and throw me out, would you?"
Celine trusted Nigel's character. A man like him would never do something as dishonorable as kicking her out.
Sure enough, Nigel looked at Carly and said, "Carly, this is Celine's first time in the Capitol. Let her stay as a guest. I was the one who brought her here from the airport."
Carly exclaimed, "Dad!"
Nigel said, "Someone, bring over some tea!"
Nigel walked into the living room, making it clear that his decision was final.
Carly glared at Celine angrily. "Celine, you're really shameless, showing up at my house as a guest."
Celine stepped up to Carly. "Ms. Hampton, you're the richest man's daughter now. I hear you've been making waves in the Capitol these past few years. I just wanted to see it for myself."
Carly sneered. "I doubt that's the real reason you came to the Hampton residence."
Celine countered, "Then, what do you think I came here for?"
Carly said nothing.
Celine lowered her voice. "Ms. Hampton, you should know that my daughter, Bella, and Mrs. Alvarez were kidnapped, right?"
Carly replied, "So what if I know, and so what if I don't? Either way, I wasn't the one who did it. Celine, are you suspecting 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...
