The Divorce Prescription Chapter 151
Celine wasn’t there, which gave Tracy even more room to shine.
After signing autographs for a group of classmates, Tracy smirked confidently as she approached Celine. “Celine, I heard Mr. Zander kidnapped you. Why do you always cause trouble? You’re such a disgrace to the Tate family!”
Whenever something happened to Celine, the entire Tate family scolded her without showing any concern for her well–being.
But Celine wasn’t angry. She was used to it. With a playful flutter of her lashes, she looked at Tracy and praised her instead. “It’s fine if I embarrass the Tate family. After all, having you is more than enough for them.”
That comment hit the sweet spot in Tracy’s heart. She smiled proudly. “Oh, so you’ve heard about my academic thesis being selected for display at the Museum of Medical Sciences?
“It’s being officially showcased tomorrow in the exhibit windows. The whole family is thrilled. Grandma and my parents will all be there to witness my glorious moment.”
Even Sonia, the family matriarch, planned to attend. Tracy was her most prized granddaughter and the shining star of Yorhine University. Tomorrow, Sonia would lead the entire family to the Museum of Medical Sciences to celebrate Tracy’s success.
Celine arched her delicate brows. Even without witnessing it firsthand, she could easily imagine how overjoyed the entire Tate family must be.
With a calm smile, Celine said, “In that case, I’ll go to the Museum of Medical Sciences tomorrow too. It sounds like fun.”
Tracy gave her a disdainful once–over. “You? Sure, you can come. I know a bumpkin like you wants a chance to broaden your horizons. But don’t cause any trouble or embarrass me, or I’ll make sure the museum staff kicks you out!”
Celine’s lips curved. “Alright.”
Tracy strutted off in her high heels, exuding an air of superiority.
Nearby, Hailey looked puzzled. “Celine, are you really going to the Museum of Medical Sciences tomorrow? Tracy’s family is definitely going to humiliate you.” Celine patted Hailey’s hand reassuringly. “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Then, she pulled out her phone and contacted Perry. “Perry, send me a copy of Tracy’s academic thesis that’s going to be displayed at the museum.” Perry replied almost instantly with an acknowledgment.
Adam had spent the entire day working in his office at Alvarez Group. The past few days of chasing after Celine had left his workload piled up.
That evening, Benjamin burst into the office and flopped onto the office sofa, grumbling. “Adam, you seriously embarrassed yourself by going head–to–head with the Zander family over Celine. I’m starting to think she’s put some kind of spell on you!”
Adam looked up from his files and shot Benjamin a cold glare.
Benjamin immediately fell silent. If there was one thing he feared, it was Adam.
Still, he couldn’t just swallow his frustration. He opened up his gaming app and tagged Celine in chat, demanding she play with him.
Ever since she’d KO’d him in their last match, Benjamin had been itching for a rematch. He had upgraded his gear and was ready to reclaim his honor.
Celine had returned to her hostel. Perry had sent over Tracy’s academic thesis, and she was engrossed in reading it when her gaming app started beeping incessantly.
She glanced at the notifications and saw Benjamin’s challenge.
“Come on!”
“Let’s play!”
“Prepare to lose!”
“Scared, aren’t you?”
“Chicken!”
Celine sighed. “…Seriously?”
Putting the academic thesis aside, she logged into her gaming account and replied, “Fine. One game.”
Benjamin’s excitement soared when Celine logged on. He was convinced she was walking straight into his trap.
The game started.
Benjamin had poured a fortune into upgrading his weapons, swapping out his longbow for a spear. With a surge of confidence, he charged at Celine, spear in hand, like a predator closing in on its prey. novelbin
The familiar “Game Over” appeared on the screen.
Benjamin shot up from the sofa “What the hell just happened?”
Benjamin made his first move with the spear. But before he could react, Celine’s avatar spun into the air, hammer in hand, and brought it crashing down with deadly precision.
He was defeated, crushed in seconds. He couldn’t believe he had died again.
