The Divorce Prescription

Adam led Celine outside, and Celine pulled her hand out of his palm. "Mr. Alvarez, you should go back. I'm fine at the Hampton residence. I'm planning to stay for a few days."

Adam looked at her. "You're staying at the Hampton residence? You have no blood ties or relationship with Mr. Hampton. Why would you stay here?"

He had already noticed that Nigel treated her differently. For example, no one else was allowed into Nigel's study, yet Celine had appeared inside. It seemed like Nigel was unusually indulgent toward her.

Celine said, "Mr. Alvarez, Mr. Hampton is a good person. You don't need to doubt his character."

"He's a good person? Celine, I'm starting to think you're biased!"

She fell silent for a moment.

She herself didn't know why she had such a good impression of Nigel. It was a kind of fondness that felt like it came from a familial bond, almost like blood ties.

Celine said, "Mr. Alvarez, I came here to save Bella and Mrs. Alvarez."

"How do you plan to save them?"

"Carly has already been put under house arrest. I don't think she'll last long before she slips up!"
