The Divorce Prescription
Adam remained asleep, unable to give her any response. Just then, Celineâs phone lit up with an incoming call. It from Nikki.
She answered, and Nikkiâs anxious voice came through immediately. âCeline, where are you right now? You need to come back to the dorm. Halleyâs in trouble!â
What? Hailey was in trouble?
Celine ended the call and carefully eased out of Adamâs arms. She picked up her clothes from the carpet, slipping them on quickly. Without making a sound, she left the place.
Not long after, a faint click echoed as the gates to the villa opened Someone slipped in quietly. It was Nikki She stepped inside and saw Adam asleep on the couch. Scattered clothes on the floor painted a clear picture of what had happened here last night. Adam. and Celine had been together.
Nikki unfastened her shirt buttons, letting the fabric slide off her shoulders, and then climbed onto the couch beside Adam. She gazed at his chiseled, handsome face with admiration. This was the closest she had ever been to him, the richest man in Mercity Her heart raced uncontrollably, and she could hear every beat of her heart. She reached out, her hand trembling, intending to lift the blanket covering him and slip into his arms. However Adam noticed the movement and slowly opened his eyes.
Nikki quickly spoke up, âMr. Alvarez, youâre awake?â
Adem sat up instantly, his sharp gaze piercing her upon seeing an unfamiliar face, âWho are you? Why are you here?â
âMr. Alvarez, Iâm .
met before. Iâm Celineâs classmate, she replied.
Recognition flickered in his eyes. He remembered her as one of Celineâs friends..
âMr. Alvarez, last , Leo called me. He asked me to come to Lux Garden to take care of you. So, last night, weâ¦â Her words trailed off as she lowered her head, feigning embarrassment t Adamâs temples throbbed. His memory of the previous night hazy and fragmented. He recalled leaving the Tate Manor and heading to the hospital to find Celine. She had refused him. Struggling to hold on to the last of his sanity, he returned to Lux Garden. The rest was a blur.
However, he remembered Celine had been here. She had been under him, their bodies entwined in passion. Yet now, when he woke up, she was nowhere to be seen Had he really ended up with Celineâs classmate instead?
His gaze landed on a crimson stain on the couch, undeniable evidence of a girlâs first time. His expression darkened. His voice was cold and commanding. âPut your clothes on!â
In the study room, Leo rushed in. âMr.
, â
Still dressed in his clothes from the night before, Adamâs expression was grim. âDid you go to the hospital night to find Celine?â
â
I showed her the security footage from the villa and told her you hurt your left hand because of her. I wanted her to go to Lux Garden, butâ¦.. refused. She turned around and went back into the ward.â
she Leo had personally watched her enter the hospital ward. However, what he didnât know was that after he left Celine came out again and went to Lux Garden lips curled into a faint, bitter smirk. A selfâdeprecating laugh escaped him. So, Celine really hadnât come. Last night, it was Nikki not Celine. From the moment he saw the blood stain on the couch, he knew it wasnât Celine. After all, Celine was no longer virgin.
