The Divorce Prescription

Adam added, Ill sleep in the study tonight.

Celines lips curled into a bitter smile.

So this was all it took.

A single word from Carly, and he had turned into a model of chastity.

Ill leave tonight.

She tried to pull her wrist free from his grip, but his slender, commanding fingers held her firmly, his strength unwavering.

His deep voice carried no room for negotiation.

Tomorrow, youll report to Yorhine University.

Celine froze.

What? Ive arranged for you to attend Yorhine University to study medicine.

Everything has been settled, Adam said.

Her mind went blank for a moment.

He was sending her to Yorhine University to study medicine? Did he ever stop to hear the ridiculousness of his own words? Im not going! Celine rejected him outright.

Adam frowned.

Celine, Yorhine University is one of the top institutions.

Not just anyone can get in.
