The Divorce Prescription

After sleeping with Adam, Celine was left completely baffled by his cold and distant attitude toward her. She couldn’t make sense of what he was thinking, no matter how hard she tried.

All she could do was turn to her best friend for advice.

Robin’s reply came quickly, “It means your friend couldn’t keep her husband interested in bed. He slept with her once and already got bored.”

Is that it? Is that really what happened?

Real, lasting relationships required compatibility in all areas, and intimacy was among the most important novelbin

She couldn’t help but think about Adam. A man like him was bound to have high standards, even in the bedroom. He would need someone who could excite and satisfy him.

Had she failed to meet his expectations? Had Adam slept with her once and already grown tired of her?

Robin’s next message popped up, “Celine, this friend you’re talking about… It’s not actually you, is it? Is there something going on between you and Mr. Alvarez?”

Celine froze, unsure of how to reply. She decided it was better to steer clear of the tople, so she quickly denied it.

“It’s not me.‘

She set her phone aside, her mind a tangled mess of emotions, and eventually drifted off to sleep.

When she opened her eyes the next morning, it was early. She got out of bed and began her usual routine.

As she brushed her teeth, a sudden and startling realization hit her–Adam hadn’t used any protection.

Adam had done it three times, his actions intense and unrestrained, completely losing himself in the heat of the moment. And each time, he’d finished inside her..

She’d been so overwhelmed by the events that she’d forgotten to take the birth control pill yesterday.

Panic seized her. In her current situation with Adam, having a child was utterly out of the question. There was no way he’d want her to get pregnant, either.

It was too late to make her own birth control pill now, so she rushed to the nearest pharmacy.

“What can I help you with, young lady?” the pharmacy owner asked as she entered.

Celine’s eyes scanned the shelves until they landed on a box of 48–hour emergency birth control pills.

She recognized the brand, but one of its ingredients triggered an allergic reaction for her. But there wasn’t any time to waste, and there didn’t seem to be other options.

“I’ll take that one,” she said, pointing to the box.

Celine took the birth control pill and returned to Yorhine University.

It wasn’t long before Hailey spotted her, “Celine, I’ve been looking all over for you! Where did you go?”

Celine’s face was ashen, her complexion ghostly pale. The birth control pill she had taken had triggered her allergy, and now her stomach was wracked with unbearable pain.

Hailey moved closer, and she noticed the fine sheen of sweat coating Celine’s forehead. “Celine, are y you Before Celine could respond, her vision blurred, and darkness consumed her. She collapsed to the ground. “Celine! Celine!” Hailey screamed in panic, her voice trembling

okay? Don’t scare m

me like this!”

She immediately rushed Celine to the campus infirmary. Once there, Hailey turned to the school doctor, her words coming out in a frantic rush. “Doctor, what’s wrong with her? Why did she suddenly faint?”

The doctor studied the blood test results. “She appears to have had an allergic reaction to a medication ”

“Allergic reaction? To what medication?” Hailey pressed.

“Birth control pill. She just took a birth control pill,” the doctor replied evenly.

What?

Hailey’s eyes widened in shock, her mind reeling. She hadn’t expected Celine to collapse because of an allergic reaction to a birth control pill

Celine lay on the infirmary bed; her delicate body curled into a tight ball like a shrimp. Her pale face was drenched in cold sweat, and she clutched her stomach with one hand, her expression twisted in agony.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Hailey pulled out her phone and dialed Adam.

At that very moment, Adam was at the hospital, sitting with Carly. She was as clingy as ever, resting her head on his chest.

“Carly, do you want some mango?” Lucy asked, walking over with a plate of freshly sliced fruit.

Carly pouted playfully. “Adam, feed me,” she said.

Adam picked up a small fork, spearing a piece of mango, and lifted it to her lips.

Just as she leaned in to take a bite, Adam’s phone buzzed. He pulled it out and answered the call.

Hailey’s panicked voice burst through the line immediately. “Adam, where are you right now?”

“I’m at the hospital with Carly.”

“Celine is in trouble, and you’re just sitting there with Carly? Get to the university right now. Celine fainted from an allergic reaction to a birth control pill!”
