Chapter 341
Benjamin had dated many women before. He had held their waists and shared far more intimate moments with them. But when he suddenly held Celine In his arms, his heartbeat sped up unnaturally.
He didn’t have time to dwell on this unfamiliar feeling. He gently shook her. “Celine, what’s wrong?”
That was when he noticed how hot her forehead felt. Her body radiated alarming boat, a clear sign of a raging fever. It really felt like they were out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Celine slowly opened her eyes and tried to stand. “I’m fine.”
“You’re burning up. Don’t pretend you’re fine. Can you even walk? I’ll carry you back”
Celine glanced at Benjamin’s injured leg. “Can you even ihanage to carry me?”
Benjamin fell silent, his pride sting. How could he be too weak to carry a young woman? She looked so light that carrying her shouldn’t have been an
Celine chuckled at his reaction and walled back into the house by herself
Benjamin followed her.
Once inside, Celine crushed the medicinal herbs. She turned to Wyatt, who lay unconscious, and forced the mixture into his mouth. Then, she took some herbal medicine herself to bring down her fever.
Benjamin watched her closely. Despite her feverish state, she kept herself busy, moving back and forth as she prepared the herbs. Her slender figure seemed even more fragile as she worked tirelessly.
He wanted to help, but he didn’t know how. All he could do was stand there, feeling useless.
When she finally finished, Benjamin spoke. “You should get some rest on the bed.
As soon as he said it, he realized the issue. There was only one bed, and he had been using it
He pulled back the blanket. “Take the bed. Sleep”
Celine quicidy stopped him. “Benjamin, you should rest. Your leg injury is serious. If your wound becomes infected, I’ll have to take care of you. I’ll just
sit for a while ”
Benjamin thought for moment and then looked at her. “Then sleep here too”
The bed was big enough for both of them.

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!...
