"Mommy, I'm so grateful that Grandma protected me. Can we go play at Grandma and Mr. Handsome's house?" Bella asked.
Celine thought for a moment. She wasn't planning on leaving the Capitol anytime soon because she was waiting for Carly's explanation. Besides, Fiona was coming back, and she was eager to meet Carly's mother.
"Alright, Mrs. Alvarez, then I'll graciously accept your invitation. Sorry for the trouble," Celine said.
Adam extended his arms. "Bella, let me carry you."
Celine refused. "No need to trouble Mr. Alvarez. I can carry my own daughter."
Bella glanced at Celine, then turned to Adam. "But Mommy, I want Mr. Handsome to carry me."
Celine sighed. After three years of raising Bella, it was unbelievable that she had suddenly turned against her.
At this moment, Adam picked up Bella, who giggled. "Bella is grown up now and heavier. I didn't want Mommy to tire of holding me, so I asked Mr. Handsome to carry me. Mommy, I love you."
Celine was caught off guard once again. Her quick-witted daughter had effortlessly won her over.
Grace smiled at the adorable Bella. "Bella, let's go home."

Nigel brought Carly back. In the living room, Nigel stared at her. "Carly, do you realize your mistake?"
Carly retorted, "Dad, why does everyone favor Celine? It's because you all favor her that I had people kidnap her daughter! When Celine wasn't around these past three years, everything was fine. It's all her fault! She shouldn't exist!"
Nigel's anger flared. "Carly, whether it was three years ago or now, you always blame everything on Celine! You've never once reflected on your own actions!"

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...
