The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 500

At that moment, the kidnappers all coughed up blood and collapsed.

The doctor stood up with a grim expression. "Mr. Alvarez, something's wrong. These people have been poisoned. They can't speak."

Adam's expression turned icy. Leo whispered, "Mr. Alvarez, it seems the mastermind drugged them in advance. Once their purpose was served, these people were no longer needed. The mastermind is truly ruthless."

Adam hadn't expected the mastermind to act so quickly, let alone right under his nose. Now that the captives were incapacitated, their only lead was gone.

Without another word, Adam turned and walked out.

Mary and Hailey were waiting for him. "Did you find out who's behind this?" Mary asked.

Adam shook his head.

Leo stepped forward and recounted everything that had happened.

Mary slammed her cane against the floor with a sharp thud and let out a cold snort. "This mastermind is truly vicious. I underestimated them!"

Hailey clenched her fists. "Now we've lost our only lead. This is infuriating!"

Just then, James rushed over. "Dr. C is awake!"

Mary and Hailey's expressions lit up. "Celine woke up? That's wonderful! Let's go see her!"

Mary and Hailey rushed toward the hospital room.

Adam hesitated for a moment before quickly following them.

Celine looked at Mary, knowing how much she longed for a great-grandchild. However, given the awkward situation between her and Adam, Celine didn't want to burden Mary.

She lowered her gaze apologetically. "Grandma, I'm sorry…"

"Silly girl, you have nothing to apologize for. If anything, I should be thanking you. You're carrying Adam's child!" Mary said, gently placing a hand on Celine's stomach.

Just then, Hailey glanced at the door and noticed Adam standing there.

"Mr. Alvarez, why are you just standing at the door?" she asked.

Celine looked up and saw Adam in the doorway.

Their eyes met, and for a moment, the room fell silent.
