The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 689

Carly cut Grace off. "So, you're saying I'm not as good as her!"

Grace hesitated. "I…"

Carly clenched both hands into fists at her sides. "That's what all of you think, isn't it? Celine is the nation-renowned genius Dr. C! Celine is Linny! She's so exceptional, while I'm a nobody. That's why all of you side with her. That's why you don't like me!"

Grace was startled by Carly's outburst. Right now, Carly's face was twisted with malice and jealousy. Her features were contorted into something terrifying.

Bella shrank behind Grace. "Grandma, I'm scared."

Grace hugged Bella and looked at Carly as if she were seeing a stranger. "Carly, how could you think that? We never disliked you just because you weren't as talented as Celine. But your jealousy has turned you bitter, and now you've committed a crime. You've really disappointed me."

Carly's bloodshot eyes locked onto Grace. "Mrs. Alvarez, I don't need you to like me anymore because you're not leaving here alive!"

Grace's face changed. "Carly, you would actually lay hands on me?"

Carly waved her hand. "Take them all down!"

The black-clad kidnappers immediately grabbed Grace and Bella.

Bella burst into frightened sobs. "Let go of me! Let go of Grandma! My mommy will be here soon! She's going to save us!"

Grace quickly reassured her, "Bella, don't be scared. Carly, think this through. I am Mrs. Alvarez. If you dare to harm me, my son will never let you go!"

Carly gave Grace a sinister look. "Mrs. Alvarez, don't worry. Adam will never find out about this. And once I marry him and become your daughter-in-law, I'll make sure to visit your grave every year on All Souls' Day."

Grace's voice trembled with fury. "Carly, you're absolutely insane!"

To Carly, there was no reason for Grace or Bella to exist anymore. She ordered, "Get rid of them. I don't want to see them again!"

"Yes, ma'am."

The kidnappers drew sharp knives and slowly closed in on Grace and Bella.
