The Divorce Prescription Novel Free Online

---- Chapter 864, "Alright, I'm giving you the chance-explain yourself," Jonah said. Hailey explained, "Jonah, Iwas in your office when I got a call from Ewan. He said he wanted to talk." "Talk about what?" "1... [wanted to know what happened to your face. Ewan said he knew, and that he'd tell me if I met him." Jonah paused, and he eyed Hailey. "So you went to meet Ewan because of my face?" "Yes, of course! What other reason could I have been there? How was I supposed to know he'd turn out to be such a creep? "He even randomly sliced a piece of steak and tried to shove it at me.

He told me [had to eat it before he'd tell me anything. But obviously, I didn't!" When he saw the disgust on Hailey's face, Jonah felt a sense of relief. So that was what had happened. But even so, there was a lingering uncertainty. He looked at her and asked, "So, you really don't know what happened to my face, huh?" Hailey shook her head. "Of course not. Why do you keep ---- asking me that? Am I supposed to know?" Jonah fell silent, mulling it over. It was now obvious that Hailey had no part in what happened three years ago. That meant Ewan was the one who had hurt him.

"Jonah, what exactly happened to your face? Can you tell me now?" "Three years ago, I was seriously wounded during a sting operation to bring down a major drug lord. Despite my injuries, I dragged myself to come find you. "But before I could reach you, someone forced me into a car and poured acid over me. Disfigured , they drove the car off a cliff-with me still inside." Hailey gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief. So much had happened to Jonah three years ago. He'd been attacked with acid, then sent hurtling off cliff. She shook her head, feeling overwhelmed. "I'm sorry.

I didn't know you went through something so terrible." "It's alright. It's behind me now." Hailey wrapped her arms around him, holding him tightly." I'm really sorry. Those three years must've been hell. And I was even blaming you back then. You must've been in so much pain." ---- She leaned into him, her heart heavy with guilt and sorrow. Jonah felt the weight of the past three years lifting , as if all the pain he'd endured was starting to heal in that single moment. Hailey reached up, her fingers lightly grazing his face. "Don't worry, Jonah, I've already contacted Celine.

Ihave faith in her-she'll find a way to restore your face." Soon, the luxury car pulled up in front of the company building. Jonah turned off the engine and glanced over at her. "Promise me something. From now on, cut all ties with Ewan. If you do that, I'll let go of everything that happened in the past. Can you follow through on that?" "I never really had much contact with Ewan anyway." But did she truly not? For three years, she had stood by Ewan's side. The thought of it stirred a burning jealousy inside Jonah.

He couldn't bear the idea of Hailey being with anyone else-he wanted her, and only her. "Hailey, Ican't stand Ewan. From now on, I need you to stop answering his calls and avoid seeing him alone. Do you understand?" ---- um Jonah placed a hand on her shoulder , his tone serious. "I'm not trying to control you. I just don't want you spending time with him in private. "And to be clear, I won't be meeting other women privately either. We belong to each other, Hailey. I'm serious about this. Can you take me seriously too?" His last words hung between them, heavy with the weight of his commitment.

Hailey's heart skipped a beat, and a smile tugged at her lips. Without a word, she leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. Jonah froze, momentarily stunned by her sudden gesture. He lowered his gaze, finding himself lost in the depths of her eyes. With a playful smile, she whispered, "Jonah, listen closely-I'm just as serious about you. Very serious." Jonah felt his heart swell in an instant. "Well, Ms. Hailey, you'd better treat me right." With that, he lowered his head and kissed her.
