The Divorce Prescription

I sold everything I had to send her to school, gave up everything to send her to the big city.

His acting deserved a perfect score.

The reporters snapped photos frantically.

An adoptive daughter abandoning her rural adoptive father was headlineworthy material.

They were all eager to get an exclusive scoop.

Todays press conference is to expose Celine for who she truly is.

Too many people still dont know what kind of person she is.

She cant just abandon her adoptive father.

She must take responsibility! Larry wiped his face with the tissue, a sly smile flashing briefly across his lips.

No matter how much protection Adam offered, Celine wouldnt escape him.

Lucy exchanged a quick glance with Carly.

Both of them were pleased with how things were unfolding.
