The Divorce Prescription Chapter 287
The Divorce Prescription
The policeman was asking about Declan? Was he the one on the other end of the phone call with Declan just now?
Hailey nodded. âYeah. He left.â
The policeman didnât continue that topic. âWeâre taking the Storm Killer into custody. Miss, weâll need you to make a statement for us tomorrow.
Hailey agreed. âAlright.â
âItâs the stormy season now, and a thunderstorm is coming soon. It isnât safe poing anywhere in this weather.
âThereâs a motel up ahead, and you can go there for a hot shower and change into fresh clothes. Donât get sick,â reminded the policeman thoughtfully.
Right now, Adam, Celine, and Hailey were completely soaked through. Since it was rather chilly in the fall, they had no choice but to follow the policemanâs suggestion and go to the motel.
The motel wasnât big, but it was clean. The staff there took the three of them to a room. âMy apologies, but thereâs The three of them would have to stay in one room?
Celine glanced inside. There was only one bed too. However, they didnât have much choice.
Adum nodded. âAlright. Weâll take it.â
With that, the staff member gave them the roomâs keycard and left.
Adam walked in, but Celine suddenly ran out and called after the staff.
âSir, wait a minute.â
The staff member stopped. âIs there anything else I can help you with?â
only one room left tonightâ
Adam looked at Celine. She had a winning smile on her âSir, thereâs three of us. Can you provide another blanket?â
The staff member asked, âThat gentleman is your âBrother, heâs my brother.â
Adam heard Celineâs answer.
âPlease, sir? Can you please provide another blanket for us? Youâd be the best if you couldâ¦â
Celineâs voice was coquettish as she cajoled and pleaded with him. It was enough to make any manâs skin tingle. The staff memberâs face quickly turned red.
Adam stood in the doorway watching the entire interaction, before he returned to the room with a dark look on his face. He stood by the bed and tugged on the necktie on his neck Shortly after, Celine came in holding a blanket, Celine didnât speak to him, looking at Hailey instead. âHailey, stop staring off into space. Go have your beth first. â
Hailey knew that it would be useless if she tried to decline, so she didnât argue against it either. âAlright, Celine. Iâll go clean myself .â With that, Hailey entered the bathroom.
Adam stood by the bed. He watched as Celine walked over and placed the blanket she was holding onto the bed. She didnât look at him, nor did she plan on talling to him. In fact, even in the car just now, she hadnât spoken to him either.
two them seemed to have arrived at a point where they had nothing to say to each other.
Adami porsed lips. âDid you use your feminine wiles to get this ?â
Celine looked up and glanced at him. âWhen you need something from other people, youâll have to be humble and act in a way that pleases them. Iâm a single woman, su itâs perfectly acceptable for me to do that, isnât it?â
dudyât have any emotional reaction to that. He asked in a low and calm vole, âDid something happen â
He was asking her if anything had happened to herâ¦
Celine placed her bag on the table. âIs it that unbelievable? Youâre already going to marry Carly soon, so of course Iâm going to date and marry someone else in the future. I canât remain single for the rest of my life, can 17â
