The Divorce Prescription

Hailey nodded. "Yeah. Celine, Mr. Alvarez is here. He says he wants to see you."

Robin scoffed. "Where was he before? And now, he's desperate to see her?"

Still, Robin respected Celine's decision. "Celine, it's up to you. Do you want to see Adam?"

Celine placed her hand over her belly. "We've already talked about the past. There's nothing left to say between us. I don't want to see him. Tell him to leave." Hailey nodded. "Got it."

She went back to the apartment door, looked at Adam, and said, "Mr. Alvarez, please leave. Celine doesn't want to see you."

Adam's voice was rough and hoarse. "Did you tell her I have something to say?"

"I did, but Celine said that she's done talking with you about the past. It's over between you two. There's nothing more to say."

Over?

Adam shook his head. "It's not over. Let me in. I need to talk to her myself."

"Mr. Alvarez, Celine is pregnant with a baby right now. If she doesn't want to see you, please don't force her."

With that, Hailey shut the door in his face.

She returned to the living room. "Celine, I've passed him your message."

Celine nodded. "Okay."

Just then, her phone rang.

It was a video call from Adam's grandmother-Mary.

Celine had always treated Mary as her own grandmother, so she answered immediately.

Mary's kind face filled the screen. "Celine, did you get enough rest today? Has the baby been behaving?"

Celine smiled. "The baby is very well-behaved."

"That's great. Look at what I've prepared! Here are the shoes, clothes, and socks I prepared for the baby!"

The moment Mary got home, she had spent the entire night shopping for baby items like tiny clothes and little socks. They were all beautifully made.

"Since we don't know if it's a boy or girl yet, I bought all colors-pink, yellow, blue; and so on. I just

couldn't stop myself. I also had

some gold and silver jewelry 1

to order, and I'm planning to build a playground to welcome my great-grandchild."

She had been busy preparing everything she could think of.noveldrama

Celine felt warm inside. She had always seen Mary as her real grandmother, and Mary had always loved her and loved children. But Celine and Adam...

"I'm still early in my pregnancy. Please prioritize your own health. You don't need to prepare all this."

Mary chuckled and said, "Celine, I know you haven't forgiven Adam yet. That's fine. You don't have to force yourself. I am me, and Adam is

Adam. You can abandon the child's father, but not the grandmother."

Celine couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Mary truly understood her and had no intention of making things difficult for

Celine. She was truly a wonderful woman.

Celine made up her mind. No matter what happened between her and Adam, she wouldn't let it affect the bond between the baby and Mary.

She smiled. "I understand. Please rest well. I'll take care of myself and the baby."

Mary nodded. "Alright."

They ended the call.

Just as Celine had set down her phone, it started ringing again. A name flashed on the screen-Adam Alvarez.
