Upon hearing Celine's words, Carly immediately stepped forward. "That's not what I meant…"
Celine looked at her calmly. "Then, what do you mean? Do you want me to treat you?"
Carly fell silent.
Celine smirked. "I can treat you, but you'll have to beg me."
She wanted Carly to beg.
Carly's face turned deathly pale.
Celine knew Carly all too well. Carly had always looked down on her, believing herself to be superior. Finding out that Celine was Dr. C was already a crushing blow, but having to swallow her pride and beg was even worse than death.
It wasn't just Carly—Sonia, Lucy, and Tracy all felt the same bitter humiliation.
Celine's clear, sharp eyes swept over them with amusement. "You're the ones asking for help now. When you ask for help, you need to show sincerity. Isn't that what you taught me?"
Lucy snapped, "Celine, you—"
Celine cut her off. "Of course, you don't have to beg me. But then, you'll just have to watch Carly die."
"Celine, as a doctor, shouldn't you have compassion? How can you say such things?" Sonia interjected.
Celine stepped forward, closing the distance between them. She met Sonia's gaze head-on. "Anyone else could say that to me—but not you. Do I need to ask you how my father died, Mrs. Tate Senior?"
Sonia's face went pale with fear. Did Celine already know?
Celine watched Sonia's expression with satisfaction. This was only the beginning. She had plenty of time to play.
"Well, you wanted to see me, and now you have," Celine said lightly. "As I said, if you want me to treat you, come and beg me. I'll be leaving now."

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!...
