Chapter 268
Celine sat upright in her chair and said, “Go back and check the ‘Sacred Herbal Codex‘, Volume Ten, page 4008. You made a mistake just now.”
She spoke earnestly, her tone full of weight. “We, as medical practitioners, must be meticulous. A small error could lead to catastrophic consequences,” At that moment, James stood towering over her, his height giving him a clear advantage. But her slender, graceful back was perfectly straight, and her intelligent, clear eyes met his with the authority of a lecturer addressing a student.
He was stunned. Was she lecturing him? Did she think she was the lecturer? His lecturer could only be Dr. C!
He felt as though the world had gone mad. He wanted to reprimand her, but she spoke first
“That’s enough, James. You can go now.”
He was flabbergasted. She had called him by his full name again. This audacity rendered him speechless. Without another word, he turned and left.
Back in the principal’s office, James fused. This was absurd. There was no way he could have been wrong
He immediately pulled out the “Sacred Herbal Codex“, and it didn’t take him long to find the content on Volume Ten, page 4008.
Celine had remembered it all perfectly. As he read further, he drew a sharp breath.
She was right.
He had made a mistake! Good heavens!
Just then, Bailey walked in and asked, “Mr. Lambert, what’s the matter?”
James stared at Bailey, dazed.
“There’s a student of mine who would always sleep through my lectures, but the moment she opened her eyes, she pointed out my mistake. What do you make of that?” he asked.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam)
What a way for both Hayden and Lucy to go...
I'm so invested with this novel. Both Declan-Hailey and Celine-Adam's story. But, Declan and Hailey gives me more heartache. I thought they would get their happy ending after what Declan have been through. But just like what others said, maybe the author is very sad that's why she don't want her characters to be happy. 😭 Ewan is so evil...
This writer is very sad! Why should Ewan come back to hurt Declan!...
So let’s move to Celina and Adam...
Please take back to Celine and Adam's story !...
Stella is another Carly...
Don’t let lucy win!. It is about time to get Celine what’s rightfully hers! Pls...
Hope this truth is not going to be buried...
I hope this doesn’t drag…..but typical of these stories, they will see again in 3-5 years time, with a toddler involved 😁😁...
It’s for the best that Celine leaves until she gives birth then revenge! I like it!...
