Leo stood beside him and asked, "Mr. Alvarez, what's wrong?"
Adam frowned deeply. "I don't know either. I just feel tightness in my chest."
Adam had always been a workaholic. But today, for some reason, he just couldn't focus. A heavy pressure weighed on his chest, making it hard to breathe.
He reached up, pressing his palm against his heart. There was a faint ache there. It felt as if something had happened, something that unsettled him.
"Mr. Alvarez, should I call a doctor to check on you?"
Adam shook his head. "No need."
Then, after a moment of silence, he spoke again. "What is Celine doing right now?"
Leo hesitated. "Mr. Alvarez, do you want to see Ms. Celine? She lives right across from you. I can go knock on her door if you'd like."
Adam didn't respond right away. He remained silent for a few seconds.
Just then, knocking was heard, and a voice called from outside. "Adam, I made you a cup of coffee."
It was Carly.
Adam spoke, "Come in."
Carly walked in, carrying a steaming cup of coffee. She placed it beside Adam's hand. "Adam, you've been working for a long time. Have some coffee. I made it myself."
Adam felt exhausted. He picked up the coffee and took a sip. But almost immediately, he frowned.
Carly's expression changed. "Adam, what's wrong?"
Leo had worked for Adam for many years. He could tell right away. "Mr. Alvarez, is this coffee not to your taste?"
That was exactly it.

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. đ Ewan is so evil...
This writer is very sad! Why should Ewan come back to hurt Declan!...
So letâs move to Celina and Adam...
Please take back to Celine and Adam's story !...
Stella is another Carly...
Donât let lucy win!. It is about time to get Celine whatâs rightfully hers! Pls...
Hope this truth is not going to be buried...
I hope this doesnât dragâŠ..but typical of these stories, they will see again in 3-5 years time, with a toddler involved đđ...
Itâs for the best that Celine leaves until she gives birth then revenge! I like it!...
