The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223

Just as Celine was about to step forward, the sweet sound of a phone ringing echoed. It was Joshua calling.

“Hello, Ms. Tate, there’s been an issue at the police station. You need to come quickly!”

Celine’s heart missed a beat. What could have happened to Robin?

Without a second thought, she turned and ran.

When Celine arrived at the police station, Joshua quickly approached her. “Ms. Tate.”

“What’s happened to Robin?” Celine asked.

Her words faltered when she saw a familiar figure–Nikki had arrived.

Nikki, dressed in high–end designer brands, was surrounded by a small entourage and two lawyers.

She smiled as she approached Celine. “Celine, I heard you’re here to bail Robin out. Don’t bother. Your friend is staying here for life. She’ll never get out.”

Joshua leaned in and whispered, “Ms. Tate, Nikki brought two lawyers with her. They’re top–tier lawyers from the Alvarez Group.

“The Alvarez Group’s legal team is one of the best in the country, undefeated in every case. They’ve already rejected our bail request. With their influence, the situation for Ms. Smith is looking very grim.”

Celine’s expression hardened. She hadn’t expected Adam to back Nikki to this extent.

Nikki grinned at her. “Celine, you know about me and Mr. Alvarez, don’t you? I’m sorry, I know he’s your husband, but he doesn’t like you. Mr. Alvarez and I couldn’t resist each other that night.”

Celine stayed silent.

Celine couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of pleading with Adam.

Just then, her phone chimed softly, signaling an incoming call. She glanced at the screen–it was Adam calling

As Celine tapped the screen to answer, Adam’s cold, displeased voice came through immediately. “Celine, I’m at the city hall entrance. I’ve been waiting for you. Are you coming?”

She tightened her fingers around the phone. She had almost forgotten about the divorce. “Adam, something came up,” she said, wanting to explain. “I-” “Celine, what kind of game are you playing this the?” he cut her off. “You’re the one who wants the divorce, and you’re the one not showing up. I don’t have time to waste on your games of push and pull!”

Celine’s heart sank as she wondered if this was how he really saw her.

However, she couldn’t afford to get on his bad side just yet. She had to bring up Robin

“There’s something I need to talk to you about…”
