The Divorce Prescription Chapter 213

Adam froze.

What had Celine taken that made her pass out? Birth control pills?

He wanted to ask for clarification but before he could say anything, the call abruptly ended with two short beeps–Hailey had hung up.

Carly had overheard the conversation. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she turned to Adam. “Adam, did I hear that right? Celine because she took birth control pills?”

Adam didn’t respond. Without hesitation, he pushed her off his lap and stood up. “I’m going to Yorhine University.”

Before Carly could , Adam had already left, moving swiftly.

She turned to Lucy. “Mom, what’s going on? Adam and Celine didn’t even… do anything. So why would Celine need birth control pills?”

Lucy couldn’t understand it either, but her expression was grim. “Don’t worry, Carly. I’ll figure out what’s happening”

Adam arrived at Yorhine University as quickly as possible and headed straight for the campus infirmary, “Mr.

, you’re finally here. Come, look at Celine!

Hailey exclaimed, rushing to grab his arm and pull him the bed.

Adam’s eyes landed on frail figure lying before him. Celine’s small, delicate body was curled up on the bed, and even in her she a heart–

At that moment, her eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes.

“Celine, you’re awake!” Hailey said, quickly helping her sit up.

Celine froze when her gaze landed on Adam. “Why are you here ”

Adam stood tall and imposing by the bedside, his refined features unreadable. “Hailey called me.”

Celine hadn’t expected Hailey to call Adam after she had fainted from her allergic reaction to the birth control pills.

She turned to Hailey, her voice soft. “Hailey, you shouldn’t have”

But Hailey cut her off, her tone firm. “Celine, you an allergic reaction to birth control pills! Of course, I called him. He needs take responsibility for this!”

Then, without skipping a beat, Hailey turned to Adam, her filled with accusation. “Mr. Alvarez, do you have any idea harmful birth control pills can be to a woman’s body? And Celine is allergic!

“If you didn’t a child, then you should have taken precautions! It’s not fair to yourself and leave her to suffer for it!”

Her words hit like a thunderclap in the quiet infirmary.

Celine’s pale flushed red with embarrassment, and she whispered, “Hailey, stop it. Please don’t say any more.”

Adam stood tall, his imposing frame casting a shadow over Celine as he gazed down at her with a cold, condescending expression. His words, however, were directed at Hailey. “You can leave now.”

“Alright, I’ll leave you two to talk,” she replied, stepping out and leaving the couple alone.

It was just Celine and Adam now.

Celine felt her chest tighten. Would he think she had done this on purpose? That she’d asked Hailey to call him just to force him to take responsibility?

“…” she began, trying to explain.

But Adam’s cold voice sliced through the air, cutting her off. “Have you been spending a lot nding a lot of time with Nath Nathan lately?”

Celine froze, caught off guard. What kind of question was that?

She had been with Nathan recently at the hospital, taking care of him.

She nodded, her voice quiet. “Yeah.”

Adam’s lips twisted into a mocking smirk. “So, it’s Nathan. She’d been taking birth control pills because of Nathan,” he thought. Were she and Nathan so careless that they didn’t even bother with protection?

Adam’s gaze grew colder, filled with contempt. “Why are you taking birth control pills?

question came out sharp and direct, like a slap.

Celine’s lashes fluttered. “I don’t want to get pregnant.”

She doesn’t want to g get pregnant Adam nodded slowly. “Makes sense. You should be taking birth control pills. Celine, even though we’re doing our own , let me make something clear–if you end up with some bastard kid, don’t expect me to claim it.”

Celine’s eyes widened, her gaze clouding with shock. She stared at him, her mind unable to process his words.

A bastard child Her entire body went cold, the warmth she’d felt earlier draining out of her like water slipping through her fingers.

He could sleep with her, discard her, and she wouldn’t cling to him, wouldn’t beg him to take responsibility. So why did he have to say something so cruel, something that cut so deep?

Adam’s smirk only grew. “And after all that, you still had the to call me? Don’t call me again.”

”

Celine’s pale face flushed red, her emotions twisting painfully inside her.

She had always known Adam had a way with words–turning them into weapons that could wound as deeply as any blade.
