The Divorce Prescription

Standing next to Celine, Hailey and Robin exchanged a knowing look as if silently saying, "Savor your victory now. Soon enough, you'll face what's coming."

Carly immediately frowned.

Why did she feel like something was off with Celine today?

No, something definitely felt wrong.

It was only now that Carly realized how strange it was that Celine had suddenly

agreed to perform her heart surgery.

Had Celine uncovered something?

Carly quickly shook off the thought.

If Celine had discovered anything, she would've gone straight to Adam. But nothing had happened on that front. Taking a deep breath, Carly tried to calm herself. She was clearly overthinking it.

The surgery was about to begin, and soon, she would have a bright future ahead. Just then, Tracy's voice sliced through the tension. "Mr. Alvarez."

Carly turned and saw Adam entering the ward, his tall, commanding presence impossible to miss. Her face lit up instantly as she rushed over and slipped her arm through his. "Adam, you're here!"

Adam gave her a brief glance before his gaze settled on Celine.

Celine met his eyes without hesitation. "Mr. Alvarez, today is the day of our agreement. As discussed, I need to see Perry before the surgery. Where is he?"

Carly let out a mocking chuckle. "Damn, Celine, you must really be obsessed with Perry. He's all you ever talk about."

She then turned to Adam. "Adam, since Celine misses Mr. Marshall so much, why don't you bring him out?"

Robin was on the verge of losing it. This shameless woman really knew how to insert herself into everything.

Adam's gaze remained fixed on Celine as he said, "I always keep my promises."noveldrama

With a wave of his hand, Leo stepped forward, guiding Perry into the ward.

As soon as Celine saw Perry, her eyes lit up. Without hesitation, she rushed toward him. "Perry!"

Clad in a sharp, maple-colored coat, Perry exuded sophistication and- poise, his complexion healthy and vibrant. He opened his arms wide and called out, "Celine."

She threw herself into his embrace, her voice laced with concern. "Perry, are you alright? Did anyone mistreat you?"

Perry chuckled softly. "Not at all. Mr. Alvarez has been very hospitable. I've been well taken care of."

Celine's lips curled into a faint, relieved smile. "That's good."

Watching the scene unfold before him, Adam's hands curled into tight fists. The sight of Celine in Perry's arms was almost too much to bear.

Still holding Celine, Perry led her

toward Adam. "Mr. Alvarez, thanket

you for your hospitality. If you

ever

find yourself in Fustain, I'll be sure to return the favor."

The tension in the ward was palpable as their eyes met, a silent, unspoken challenge passing between them.

Adam's expression remained cold and unreadable. "I'm afraid you won't have that opportunity, Mr. Marshall."

Growing impatient, Carly urged, "Celine, you've seen Mr. Marshall now. According to our agreement, it's time for you to perform my heart surgery."

Celine's lips curved into a faint

smirk. "Carly, Mr. Alvarez honored his part of the deal, so, of course, I'll honor mine. Let's go. It's time for the surgery."

The moment had finally come.

Carly's eyes gleamed with excitement. She had worked so hard to get here, but the best part was knowing that it would be Celine who would ensure her recovery.

Sonia gave Carly's hand a gentle squeeze. "Carly, go on. Our whole family will be waiting outside, eagerly looking forward to your safe and healthy return."
