The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126

Adam also sensed something was off. He glanced at Celine, then loosened his grip. The soft, fair foot quickly withdrew and was hidden beneath her skirt.

Adam sat up as well, shifting back to the main topic. “I’ll have someone handle this.”

Celine curled up on the bed and refused. “Thank you, Mr. Alvarez, but that won’t be necessary.”

Adam looked at her. “Celine, don’t be ungrateful. Do you think I want to deal with your problems?”

“Then don’t,” she shot back. “Since the moment you told me to leave Alvarez Residence, my problems have had nothing to do with you.”

The tension between them thickened, and Adam’s frustration was palpable.

Celine raised her delicate eyebrows and looked him up and down. “Didn’t Carly satisfy you last night?”

Adam froze in place.

“If she did, why are you here? You just want to help me so I can repay you later, don’t you?”

His mind flashed back to that stormy night–the one secret only the two of them shared. He’d helped her, and she had repaid him.

Adam stood up abruptly. “I must have been out of my mind to come looking for you.”

With that icy remark, he turned and walked out.

He was gone just like that.

Celine wrapped her arms around herself.

She didn’t need Adam’s meddling in her life. He should stop pretending to be kind–just stay cold and heartless like he always was.

She certainly didn’t want his pity.

Just then, the dormitory door opened, and Hailey walked in. “Celine, why did Mr. Alvarez leave so quickly? He hardly ever visits. You should’ve found a way to make him stay! You can’t just let him go to that mistress, Carly!”

Adam returned to his luxurious Rolls–Royce.

On the driver’s seat, Leo noticed his stormy expression and cautiously asked, “Mr. Alvarez, how should we handle Mrs. Alvarez’s situation?”

Adam’s voice was ice–cold as he said, “Don’t bother with her. She can deal with her own mess.”

Then he let out a frosty snort. “When she gets kicked out of Yorhine University, she’ll come crying back to me.”

Leo was left speechless.

Were this couple fighting again?

Just then, a ding sounded as Leo’s phone vibrated with a new message.

“Mr. Alvarez, there’s been a twist in Mrs. Alvarez’s situation!”
