The Divorce Prescription

That important figure was coming soon, and Declan didn't even know if he would survive. Right now, he couldn't promise Hailey anything.

Declan knew he was being selfish. He couldn't give her anything, yet he still held her tightly in his arms. He was terrified of losing her.

Hailey reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Declan, you're mine. Do you hear me?"

This was Hailey's possessiveness over him.

Declan cupped the back of her head and kissed her red lips.

The kiss was brief, and he soon pulled away. Hailey nestled obediently in his arms.

"Hailey, go to sleep," Declan murmured.

Hailey was indeed feeling sleepy. She closed her eyes and drifted off.

When Hailey woke up, Declan was already gone. The high school entrance exams had begun, and Hailey escorted Aileen to the exam hall. The first day went smoothly, and Aileen estimated that she had scored close to a perfect mark.

Declan had been the top scorer in the province during his exams years ago, and Aileen was just like her brother. Hailey had complete faith in her.

The next day, Hailey dropped Aileen off again and waited outside.

Suddenly, a sleek sports car roared up. The driver's door swung open, and out stepped Ewan.

Ewan rushed over to Hailey. "Hailey, why are you still here?"

Hailey barely spared him a glance. "I'm waiting for Aileen to finish her exam. This is an exam hall-no loud noises or unnecessary people allowed. Please leave."

Ewan wasn't offended by her coldness. Instead, he smirked. "You're treating Declan's little sister so well, but do you even know what Declan is doing right now? You're such a fool!"

This wasn't the first time Ewan had come to stir up trouble, and Hailey was immune to it by now. She didn't even look up. "Ewan, what are you trying to say now? That Declan is at the casino? Fine, I get it. Stop

talking."

Ewan let out a sharp laugh. "Hailey, Declan isn't at the casino. Why don't you take

a wild guess where he is?"

Hailey glanced at him. "Whatever you're trying to say, I don't want to hear it. Please leave."

Ewan stared at her. "Hailey, don't you really want to know? Well, I'm going to tell

you anyway. Today is Declan's big day!"

"Big day?" Hailey frowned. "What do you mean?"

"Declan is marrying Stella today!"

His words nearly made Hailey's ears

explode in shock. She shot to her

feet, staring at Ewan in disbelief.

"Ewan, what nonsense are you spouting? How could Declan

possibly be marrying Stella?bget

it you're making up rumors again. I won't believe you."

She turned to leave.

However, Ewan stepped in front of her. "If you think I'm lying, why don't I take you there and show you?"

Hailey took a step back. "No. I don't want to go."

Ewan hesitated. "Hailey..."

Hailey covered her ears with her hands. "Enough! I don't want to hear another word!"

Ewan laughed mockingly. "Hailey, look at how weak you are. You're scared, aren't you? You're afraid that Declan and Stella are really getting married!"

With that, Ewan grabbed Hailey's slender arm. "Running away won't solve anything. The more you're afraid, the more I want you to see it with your own eyes. Come with me!"
