The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 818

Jonah and Hailey nodded. "Okay."

Since Jonah and Hailey were a couple, they were assigned to the same room. Hailey glanced around, feeling a bit awkward. "Mr. Pilsner, are we really going to shower in this room together?"

Jonah nodded. "Yes."

"Should I ask them to prepare two separate rooms for us?" Hailey suggested.

With that, she began to move toward the door.

But Jonah quickly grabbed her arm, pinning her against the wall.

"Mr. Pilsner... what are you doing?"

Jonah placed his hand on the wall above her head, effectively trapping her in his arms. A smirk curled on his lips. "Aren't we in a relationship? If you go out and request two rooms, Cedrick will catch on. Do you want to get kicked out?"

Hailey quickly shook her head. "I don't want to be kicked out! But... isn't it a bit strange for the two of us to shower here together?"

"What's so unusual about that? Or are you suggesting... you want to shower with me?" Jonah asked, stressing the last words, making Hailey's pupils widen in surprise.

"I don't!" she snapped back.

"Then you can shower alone, and I'll do the same. What's the big deal?" Jonah replied.

Hailey fell silent, realizing Jonah had a point. If they bathed separately, there was no reason for it to be uncomfortable.

Jonah broke the quiet. "Cedrick's waiting to take us to dinner. Do you want to shower first, or would you prefer I go?"

"Mr. Pilsner, you go first," she said.

Jonah nodded. "Alright."

Standing tall, he retracted his arm and made his way to the bathroom.

With that thought, Hailey stood up and grabbed Jonah's phone. She walked to the bathroom door and knocked.

The sound of running water stopped, and Jonah's deep, steady voice called out, "What is it?"

"Mr. Pilsner, you've been getting repeated calls. Do you want to answer it? It might be something urgent."

"Just bring the phone in," he said.

It sounded like Jonah had finished showering, so she assumed he was dressed by now.

With that in mind, Hailey reached for the doorknob and pushed the bathroom door open, stepping inside.

But the instant her gaze landed on Jonah, her bright eyes widened in shock. She let out a scream and quickly spun around.

"Mr. Pilsner, you… you—"
