Chapter 222
“Enough, stop talking” Celine Interrupted him.
She didn’t want to hear any of it.
Adam sneered. He wanted her to hear it all. He wanted Celine to remember that he gave her classmate everything she didn’t want.
He let go of her and coldly said, “Fine, divorce it is. We’ll do it tomorrow. If it weren’t for Grandma, I would’ve divorced you a long time ago. There are plenty of women out there waiting in line!”
Celine’s heart ached. Her fingers curled into tight fists, and her eyes were red–rimmed as she replied, “I’ll see you at the city hall at 9:00 am.”
With that, Celine left without looking back.
Adarn watched her leave with an unreadable expression. He had wanted to end things with her. This marriage should have ended long ago.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Leo.
“Mr. Alvarez,” Leo said, “Ms. Barnett fell from the wire today. The person who cut the wire is still in the police station. Ms. Barnett doesn’t want to let this go. She wants the person to stay locked up for life.”
Adam was in a terrible mood, and his patience for Nikki’s situation had worn thin. “Let her handle it however she wants,” he replied.
“Alright, Mr. Alvarez.”
Back at the women’s dormitory, Hailey was seething with anger. “What? The one who’s been supporting Nikki and showering her with all those resources to make her famous is Mr. Alvarez?
“Has he lost his mind? Has he forgotten he’s married? He’s already with Carly, and how he’s adding Nikki into the mix. Does he not know Nikki is your classmate? Just how disgusting could he be?”
She continued, “No wonder Nikki’s been acting so smug and passive–aggressive around you. You thought she was your friend, but all she’s been focused on is your husband. She’s heartless!”
Hailey’s frustration reached its limit, and she cursed both Adam and Nikki out.
However, Celine was more concerned about Robin. She sent a quick message to Perry. “Perry, arrange for a lawyer. I need to bail Robin out of the police
station.”
Perry replied, “Okay, I’m on it.”
Celine collapsed onto her bed, feeling a whirlwind of emotions. She knew she was the one who dragged Robin into this. Nikki was targeting her, and she was determined to get Robin out
Adam’s words still echoed in her mind.
This time, he had truly broken her heart. She had run out of disappointment. She was done.
She was really leaving him. She never wanted to have anything to do with him again.
Tomorrow, she would divorce him.
The next morning, Celine left Yorhine University and headed straight to the city hall.
She and Adam were meeting at 9:00 am to finalize their divorce, She didn’t want to waste even a second.
Perry had already arranged for the lawyer, Joshua Heron, to go to the police station. After picking up their divorce papers, they would head over to bail
Robin out.
Half an hour later, Celine arrived at the city hall. She waited outside for a moment. Then, the familiar Rolls–Royce Phantom sped toward her.
Adam had arrived.
Celine hadn’t expected their marriage to end in such a miserable way. Today, she and Adam were finally getting divorced.
