The Divorce Prescription

Carly cut Grace off. "So, you're saying I'm not as good as her!"

Grace hesitated. "I..."

Carly clenched both hands into fists at her sides. "That's what all of you think, isn't it? Celine is the nation-renowned genius Dr. C! Celine is Linny! She's so

Grace was startled by Carly's outburst. Right now, Carly's face was twisted with malice and jealousy. Her features were contorted into something terrifying.

Bella shrank behind Grace. "Grandma, I'm scared."

Grace hugged Bella and looked at Carly as if she were seeing a stranger. "Carly, how could you think that? We never disliked you just because you weren't as talented as Celine. But your jealousy has turned you bitter, and now you've committed a crime. You've really disappointed me."

Carly's bloodshot eyes locked onto Grace. "Mrs. Alvarez, I don't need you to like me anymore because you're not leaving here alive!"

Grace's face changed. "Carly, you would actually lay hands on me?"

Carly waved her hand. "Take them all down!"

Bella burst into frightened sobs. "Let go of me! Let go of Grandma! My mommy will be here soon! She's going to save us!"
