The Divorce Prescription

Tracy stepped forward. "If you have a solution, then hurry up and do something. What are you hesitating for?"

Hayden remained silent for a moment, then turned and walked away without saying a word.

Lucy quickly chased after him, "Honey!"

Tracy wanted to go after them too, but Sonia stopped her. "Tracy, don't go."

Tracy was confused. "Grandma, why can't I go?"

She looked at Sonia, then at Wayne and Hazel. "You all seem to know something. Are you hiding something from me?"

Wayne broke the silence. "Tracy, stop asking questions. This involves Carly's real identity."

Tracy frowned. "Carly's identity? What do you mean? Isn't she Hayden and Lucy's daughter?"

Hazel took her hand. "Tracy, just leave it. The truth doesn't matter now. Carly's last bargaining chip is gone, and her life is hanging by a thread. Now, it all depends on Hayden's decision. If he makes the right choice, then our family will finally... rise to power."

Tracy shook her head. "I don't understand."

Sonia stood up and interjected, "You don't need to understand. Just know that the Tate family is not so easily defeated. This time, we may just survive the storm and come out stronger than ever."

Tracy was stunned by Sonia's sudden affirmation.

Hayden and Lucy reached the stairwell. Lucy grabbed his arm and asked, "Honey, where are you going? Carly is in Mr. Alvarez's hands, and her life is in danger. Aren't you the least bit worried?"

Hayden sighed. "How can I not worry? I'm the most anxious one among all of you!"

"Then don't just say it. Do something! Find a way to save her!"

Hayden looked at Lucy. "And how do you expect me to do that?"

"Make a call to the Capitol. Get Carly's biological father to come here. If that man comes, all our problems will be solved."

Hayden fell silent again.

Lucy pressed on, "I know Carly's biological mother never wanted ker to return to the Capitol. She never wanted her to reunite with her father. You promised her back then that you'd keep Carly here in Mercity.

"But she never could have predicted that Carly would be in such a dire situation. Do you think, if Carly's biological mother were still alive, she would just stand by and do nothing?

Would she watch her own daughter die?"

Hayden replied, "Of course not. Carly was her only child, the only part of her she

left behind in this world."

"Exactly. If Carly's mother were still here, she would have called Carly' father to save her. Hayden, if something happens to Carlychow will you ever face her mother?"

Hayden had always carried complicated feelings about this matter.

For years, he had raised Carly in Mercity, keeping the promise he had made. But things had changed. Carly was in mortal danger no. He could not just let her die.noveldrama

If Carly's mother were still around, she would have made the same decision. Hayden made up his mind and took out his phone.

"Alright, I'll call that person in Capitol. He has been searching for Carly all these years too."
