The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 874

"It's you, Ms. Lilton," Hailey said.

"That's right, it's me. Ms. Hailey, do you have a moment? Let's talk."

Hailey blurted out, "You're in Barombya too?"

Joanne chuckled. "Yes, I'm in Barombya. In fact, I'm staying at the same B&B as you two."

Joanne admitted it outright. "You're smart, Ms. Hailey. Yes, I bought it. And now, the snow lotus you need is in my hands. So, what do you say? Are you interested in having a little talk with me?"

Hailey walked over. "So, Ms. Lilton, it seems you've been tracking us. You knew our every move."

Joanne smiled faintly. "Of course. Otherwise, how else could I have snatched the snow lotus from you?"

"Where is it?"

Joanne pulled out a box and opened it, revealing the pristine snow lotus inside.

Hailey stepped forward. "Give it to me!"
