The Divorce Prescription

Adam said Carly was just a substitute for Celine.

Carly had always known this deep down, but she refused to accept this fact.

"I'm the true chosen one! Celine is nothing but a bumpkin from the countryside. What right does she have to compare with me?"

Adam's gaze turned ice-cold. "Who gave you the right to insult Celine?"

One of his bodyguards stepped forward and delivered a resounding slap across Carly's face. Her head snapped to the side from the force of the slap.

However, it wasn't over. One after another, countless slaps rained down on her face, hitting her with unrelenting force. Soon, both sides of her face were red and swollen. Blood was trickling from the corner of her lips.

"Stop! It hurts!" Carly finally broke down and begged for mercy.

Adam raised his hand slightly, signaling the bodyguard to stop. The bodyguard stepped back in silence.

Carly's legs gave out beneath her, and she collapsed onto the floor. She had been pampered her entire life and had never experienced such a beating. Now, her ears were ringing, and even her teeth felt loose.

Adam looked down at her coldly. "I don't ever want to hear you insult Celine again. That was just a warning."
