The Divorce Prescription Novel Free Online

Chapter 155 Chapter 155 Celine had no idea what she was saying.

Adam looked at the ice cream in her hand, then at her pure, angelic face.

His voice was hoarse as he countered with a question, Eat what? Celines mind went blank.

She didnt understand what he was asking.

Her heart raced wildly.

Deciding to end the awkwardness, Celine said, Mr.

Alvarez, Im going to sleep now.

Lets end the call.

With that, she reached out and ended the video call.

Hailey, who was about to take a shower, noticed Celines flushed face.

Celine, why is your face so red? Celine touched her cheek..

Maybe its the heat.

Hailey, youd better go shower.

Alright.

Then, Hailey went into the bathroom.

Left alone, Celine sat quietly, eating her ice cream.

Gradually, she calmed down.

Why had she panicked earlier? This morning, when she had asked him over the phone if he wanted her to repay him, he had hung up without hesitation.

So arrogant.

So dismissive.

But why hadnt he acted that way earlier? Deep down, Celine had hoped he would accept her offer of repayment.

That way, they could settle things and owe each other nothing.

Celine finished writing the medicinal soup recipe and sent it to Adam via WhatsApp.

Her Whatsapp contact list still had Adam saved as husband.

Adam didnt reply.

As always, he maintained his cold and distant demeanor.

Her chat history with him was filled with onesided messages.

It had always been her monologue.

This Whatsapp account had borne witness to the humiliating and laughable chapter of her marriage.

Feeling a mix of bitterness and amusement, Celine picked up her phone and snapped a selfie.

She posted it as a Whatsapp status.

Adam, seated in his office chair, had received the medicinal soup recipe from Celine.

He didnt respond.

He tried to focus on his documents, but his mind kept replaying the scene of Celine eating her ice cream.

She had even offered him the ice cream shed eaten, asking if he wanted it.

Wanted what? Ice cream? Or her? Adam leaned back, his tall frame sinking into the office chair.

He loosened his tie, trying to catch his breath.

He opened WhatsApp and checked Celines status.

She had posted a selfie.

Celine was wearing her white camisole, holding an ice cream in her hand.

Ding.

Celine received a message from him, curt and commanding.

Delete it.

He wanted her to delete the status.

Celine had been testing him all along.

He didnt reply to her WhatsApp messages but still checked her status.

Predictable.

Celine deleted the status, though only Adam had been able to see it.

She had posted it just for him.

She opened the chat with Husband and sent him a message.

Do you want it? Adam stared at the message.

She was asking him if he wanted it.

Bold provocation.

Attempting invitation.

She wanted to see if she could lure him in, to see if he would take the bait.

Over the years, Adam had been surrounded by the allure of women, and he wasnt unfamiliar with the more cunning types.

He knew Celine was toying with him.

She had wanted to see if she could reel him in.

She wondered if hed bite.

Adam smirked, his thin lips curving into a faintly mocking smile.

What a little seductress.

Just then, his phone rang.

The name Carly flashed on the screen.

The mention of Carly instantly extinguished the fire in Adams mood.

The heat stirred by Celine dissipated.

He answered the call.

Carlys soft voice came through.

Adam, are you still upset? Im sorry.

I shouldnt have argued with you or broken things.

I was just jealous.

I envied how you treated Celine.

Please dont be angry anymore.

I love you.

I really, really love you.

Carly had been spoiled by Adam over the years, but she lowered her pride, apologized, and spoke to him gently, repeatedly declaring her love.

Adam couldnt help but feel moved.

Carly was, after all, his girl.

Adams expression softened.

I was at fault too.

Carly brightened immediately.

Then lets forget about it.

Tomorrow is Nathans birthday, and everyone is planning to celebrate.

Lets go together.

Adam nodded Alright After hanging up, Benjamin came out of the bathroom, still frustrated.

Adam, Im a Rookie now.

I hate Celine! Adem glanced at him stop gaming so much Go fall in love.

Id like to.

Who should I pursue? Who caught your eye this time? Benjamin groned mischievously.

Adam, do you think that Miss Genius is pretty? Chapter 155 Adam raised a brow.

Was Benjamin interested in his juniorMiss Genius? Benjamin, clearly excited, said, Adam, Im heading out.

See you at Nathans birthday tomorrow.

Adam didnt pay much attention to Benjamins pursuit of Miss Genius.

It wasnt his concern.

He glanced at Celines message, Do you want it?, but didnt reply.

He firmly rejected her temptation, refusing to let himself be drawn into her provocations.

Celine wasnt surprised when she didnt get a response.

She already knew he wouldnt.

With Carly by his side and countless beauties vying for his attention, Adam had plenty of ways to satisfy his desires.

She was insignificant in comparison.

She couldnt conquer this untouchable manthe icy king.

He didnt love her.

Celine chuckled bitterly at herself.

She carefully reviewed Tracys academic thesis again, circled two glaring errors with a red pen, and promptly sent it to Perry.

Perry quickly replied, How could such fatal mistakes exist in an academic thesis? Celine, Ill have the Museum of Medical Sciences remove Tracys thesis immediately.

The next day, Tracy, flanked by Sonia, Wayne, and Hazel, arrived triumphantly at the Museum of Medical Sciences.

In the display window, Tracys academic thesi was prominently featured.

Wow! Sonias eyes sparkled.

She grabbed Tracys hand.

I cant believe that our Tate familys daughter has made us so proud! Tracy, youve never disappointed Grandma Youre truly the pride of the Tate family!
