The Divorce Prescription

However, Celine couldn’t fall asleep.

Soon, there was another lock on the door. Who could it be this time?

Celine opened the door to find Leo, who had rushed over. “Mrs. Alvarez.”

She stepped out into the hallway. “Leo, why are you here?”

Leo’s expression grew

more anxious. “Mrs. Alvarez, Mr. Alvarez was drugged at Tate Manor. Please, you need to go to Lux Garden and check on him.”

“Didn’t he ask you to find someone else for him? I’m not going” Celine turned to head back into the room.

“Mrs. Alvarez!” Leo called after her. “Mr. Alvarez didn’t mean it. He said that on purpose just to provoke you. Couldn’t you tell?”

Her hand froze on the doorimob for a moment

“Mrs. Alvarez, do you remember the vacation villa? That day, Mr. Lynch took a hit for you. But have you ever considered what Mr. Alvarez went through? His left hand was injured after trying to save you.“!

Celine slowly turned back to face him. “What does his hand have to do with me?”

Without hesitation, Leo pulled out his phone and tapped on the screen. “Mrs. Alvarez, see for yourself.”

She took the phone and played the surveillance footage. The video showed her standing with her back to the chaos as one of Willie’s men lunged at her with a knife. Adam threw himself forward at the critical moment, grabbing the sharp blade with his bare hand.

Mrs. Alvarez, Mr. Alvarez injured his hand for you. After you slapped him that night, he stood outside this very hospital room all night long. The next day, his hand needed 23 stitches. The doctors said that if he had come in any later, his hand might have been permanently damaged.

“That day, when the knife came at you, both Mr. Alvarez and Mr. Lynch rushed to protect you. Mr. Lynch was closer, so he reached you first,” Leo said. “Celine!”

“Celine!”

In the footage, both Adam and Nathan could be heard shouting her name as they ran toward her.

Celine’s mind reeled. That day was so chaotic that she hadn’t realized it. Without this video, she never would have known what had really happened. Adam had never told her either.

She hadn’t expected him to save her. Why? Didn’t he hate her?

Her thoughts drifted back to the hallway earlier. “Celine, my hand hurts.”

He had said it twice. At the time, she had brushed it off, but now it was clear that he had been trying to show her his injury. She had spent all her time

Celine let out a small, bitter laugh. Adam could be so absurd sometimes.

Mr. Lynch. He was angry,” Leo added.

“Mrs. Alvarez, I know Mr. Alvarez has said a lot of hurtful things to you. But that’s only because he saw Celine turned to look at him. “And why was he angry?”

Leo replied reluctantly, “Mrs. Alvarez, you should ask Mr. Alvarez yourself. But I think he might have fallen for you.” Adam? In love with her? How was that even possible?

Celine dared not believe it. He had forgotten his promise in the cave year

All this time, she had followed in his shadow, yearning for just a fraction of the love he so easily gave to Carly. How could he like her?

Adam sat on the living room couch at Lux Garden, hals the discarded carelessly to one side, crumpled into a ball. His sharp features were set in a grim scowl, his eyes clouded with darkness.

Suddenly, there was a soft click as the front door opened.

Someone had arrived
