The Divorce Prescription

Nigel found the situation even more amusing. "I know Celine is the same age as my daughter. So what?"

"Don't you think it's... shameless to be holding her like this?" Adam retorted.

For the first time in his life, Nigel was called shameless.

Eren said in a low voice, "Mr. Alvarez, please mind your words. Mr. Hampton considers you a junior, but you should still show respect to your seniors."

Lucy stood frozen in shock. She never imagined she would live to see the world's richest man and a rising business tycoon gripping the same woman, both ready to fight over Celine.

She knew that Adam had thought Nigel had feelings for Celine.

There was nothing wrong with Celine and Carly being the same age. A man of Nigel's wealth and power had countless young women throwing themselves at him.

However, Nigel was Celine's father.

Lucy struggled to process what was happening. Nothing made sense anymore.

After being pulled by two guys at the same time, Celine felt even dizzier.

Did these two men even consider how she felt?

She then started to struggle. "Let me go!"

Adam looked at Nigel and said, "Mr. Hampton, did you hear that? She told you to let go."

Nigel responded, "I think she was talking to you."

"You-"

Celine shouted, "I meant both of you!"

Adam looked at Nigel reluctantly. "Mr. Hampton, Celine wants both of us to let go.

I'll count to three, and we release her at the same time."

Nigel didn't argue and gave a slight nod.

Adam said, "One, two, three..."

Adam and Nigel released Celine at the same time.

Her body went weak, and she started to collapse.

Adam reacted quickly, stepping forward to catch her in his arms. "Celine, what's wrong?"

"I'm dizzy," she replied.

Without hesitation, Adam carried her up. "I'll take you to rest."

After carrying her in his arms, he left.

As Nigel watched them from behind, he said, "Celine can't leave this place."

Eren quickly added, "Mr. Alvarez, please bring Ms. Celine to this room to rest."

Then, Adam carried Celine into the room and gently placed her on the soft bed. "I'll get you some water."

He poured her a cup of warm water.

After resting for a moment, Celine said, "Thanks, Mr. Alvarez. I'm fine now. It's just dizziness from the pregnancy."

Adam looked at her and asked, "Celine, what's your relationship with Mr. Hampton?"

She glanced up at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I saw him hugging you just now," Adam said, his voice tinged with jealousy.

Celine was speechless. "Mr. Alvarez

what exactly are you thinking? Mer

just

Hampton is my elder. I felt diz now, and he was only helping me out!"

She had no idea what was going through Adam's head.

However, Adam was on high alert. Celine always seemed to attract admirers, one

after another. Who knew what Nigel was thinking about her?

Adam remarked, "He was just

helping you out of kindness? The Mr.

Hampton I know isn't that kind and

generous. He's always cold and distant with everyone!"

Adam was well aware of Nigel's personality. Though Nigel hadn't interacted much with Celine and always seemed indifferent, Adam sensed that there was something different in how he treated her.

Before Celine could respond, a gentle voice came from the doorway. "Adam, I'm

right here. Are you talking behind my back?"noveldrama

Nigel had followed them and was now standing at the door.

Adam turned to look at him, his expression dark and unfriendly, as if he were

sizing up a rival.
