The Divorce Prescription

The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 2

Celine looked at Adam. Her voice was soft but unwavering as she repeated, "Lets get a divorce, Adam. Do you like this birthday gift?" 

Adam's expression remained indifferent. Are you suddenly asking for a divorce because I didn't spend my birthday with you? Carly is back isn't she? Celine asked.

At the mention of Carly, Adams lips curled into a sneer. He stepped toward Celine with long strides. Are you bothered by her? As the youngest business mogul in Mercity, Adam exuded a powerful presence built from his wealth, status, and influence.

As he advanced toward her, Celine instinctively took a step back. Her delicate back hit the wall. At that moment, the world around her seemed to darkened. Adam had already closed the distance, placing one hand against the wall beside her, trapping her between his solid chest and the wall. He looked down at her with a mocking smile. Everyone in Mercity knows that Carly is the one I'm going to marry. Didn't you know that when you schemed to become my wife? You didn't mind back then, so why are you bothered? Celine's face turned pale.

Yes, Adam was supposed to many Carly. If it weren't for the accident, she would never have had the chance to marry him. She would never forget the day he woke up. When he saw it was Celine beside him, the disappointment and coldness in his eyes were unmistakable.

Since then, they had slept in separate rooms, and he had never touched her. He loved Carly. Celine had always know that, but... She looked deeply at Adams face. Slowly, it began to merge with the image of the youthful boy he had been. "Adam, do you really not remember me?' Celine thought. It seemed that only she had stayed in the past.

Never mind. She would take these three years as her fulfilling her misguided lows.

Celine pushed down the bitterness and pain in het heart. Adam, lets end this platonic meeting Adam suddenly raised eyebrow. Platonic? His deep voice was full of mockery. He reached out and cupped her chin. His thumb brushed over her soft lips, pressing against them in an almost teasing motion. So that's why you want a divorce? You want to have sex? 

Celine's face flushed bright red, like a tomato.

That was what she meant. Now, his thumb was pressed on her crimson lip rubbing with a malicious yet seductive force. Celine hadn't expected such a flirtatious side from a man so hot and refined. He was actually playing with her lips with his finger.

Adam had never boon this close to Celine before. She always hid behind these oversized black framed glasses, wearing plain clothes, making herself look like an older woman, But up close, Adam noticed how small her face was, beneath those glasses, her features were delicate and striking, and those eyes were mesmerizing. Her lips were soft. Where his finger pressed, the red fade for a moment, then returned with a slight bounce. Her lips were not just soft but tender as well. It was an enticing sight that made him want to kiss her. Adam's eyes darkened. I didn't expect you to have such strong doses. Do you long for a man in you? Suddenly, aloud slap echoed in the villa Celine had slapped him hard across the face. Adams head jerked to the side. Celine's fingers trembled with anger. She had been to humble in her love, allowing her heart to be trampled. How dare he humiliate her like this? Furious, she said, I know you've never let go of Carly. Now I'll make it easier for you. I will return the position Mrs. Alvarez to her! Adams expression instantly tuned icy, like a sheet of frost had fallen over his handsome face. He had never been slapped before not by anyone. He stared at her coldly Celine, you thought you could just marry me when you wanted and divorce me when you felt like it? What do you take me for? Celine sneered "A plaything", of course.

Adam couldn't believe what he heard. Celine fought back the pan in her heart and lied, You're just a plaything took from Carly. Now I'm tired at playing with you. I want to throw you away. Adam's expression grew darker. Fine, Celine You want a divorce? 

Alright. But don't come crawling back to me, begging to get back together! With that, he stormed upstairs and slammed the door to his study.

Celine seemed to lose all her strength. Her delicate body slowly slid down the will. She crouched on the carpet, wrapping her arms around herself. "I won't love you anymore, Adam", she swore in her mind.

The next morning Sofia entered Adams study. Adam sat at his desk, reviewing documents. He was well known for being a workaholic.
Alvarez Sofia called out.

Adam didn't look up.

Sofia could tell that he was in a bad mood. The around him seemed to freeze. She carefully placed a cup of coffee on the table. Mr. Alvarez, Mrs. Alvarez made this cup of coffee for you. Adam's hand holding the pen faltered. The cold expression on his face softened slightly.

Was Celine trying to make peace? To be fair, she was a good wife, she cooked according to his preferences, handwashed his clothes, and took care of every detail of his daily life.

Adam picked up the cup of coffee and took a sip Celine definitely made this. It was exactly how he liked it. Still she was angry. She had slapped him last night, and that anger would not be easily soothed. A cup of coffee wasn't going to fix this.

Adam asked, did Celine realize her mistake? Sonia looked at him with a strange look Mrs. Alvarez has left. Adan froze, his eyes snapping up to meet Sofia's just then, she took something out, she left with her suitcase, Mr. Alvarez she asked me to give this to you before she left.

As Adam took the paper and opened it, the words Divorce Agreement jumped out at him Adam was left speechless. He had thought she was trying to makeup he peace. Sofia hesitated, Mrs. Alvarez said you should finish the coffee and sign the papers as soon as possible. Adam glare at the cup of coffee throw it out! All of it.

Sofia had thought he was enjoying it earlier. Why didn't he like it anymore! However, she didn't dare voice her thoughts. She quickly grabbed the coffee and left the room.

Adam's face darkened. He scanned the divorce agreement and realized Celine agreed to leave with nothing, no alimony, no property. he snared bitterly. She certainly had some nerve. She didn't want a single dime from him what could a country girl like her possibly expect to live on without money? He remembered how, three years, she had done everything she could to be his wife. Wasn't it all about the money? Then his gaze fell on the reason for the divorce written by Celine in neat handwriting. The husband's health does not allow him to fulfill his marital duties. Adam was render speechless. His face flushed with rage.

The damned woman!

Adam grabbed this phone and immediately dialed Celine's number. The phone rang a few time before her clear calm voice came through "Hello"
