It was Teagan's voice.

Celeste turned toward the source and saw both Teagan and Trevor.

She stopped in her tracks.

Trevor was smoking in silence.

The distance between them was too far, and with Trevor standing against the light, Celeste couldn't make out his expression.

Teagan said, "Honestly, I understand. I've met Wynn a few times. She's only 25 and already has a PhD from one of the top universities in the world. I hear she's also handling her family's business quite well.

"She's beautiful, wild, and untamed. Her brilliance and allure are rare. I get why she'd attract you. But her background is… less than respectable. Trevor, have you really thought this through? You—"

Trevor cut her off. "I know what kind of woman I want."

Teagan frowned. While she didn't think highly of Celeste, she wasn't impressed by Wynn either.

"But—" she began, but the displeasure in Trevor's eyes stopped her short.

She scoffed. "Fine, fine. You're so protective; I can't even say a word. I'll shut up

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 504

    The flood got worse.Although the Fleming Manor hadn't been much affected thanks to its geographical advantage, the cell signal grew unstable once night fell.Based on the heavy rain warning she'd received that afternoon, she might not be able to leave the manor tomorrow to return to YodaVision for work.That evening, after dinner, Celeste reported her safety to the Rodriguez family, then contacted Matthias to let him know she was currently at the Fleming Manor and might not be able to go to work the next morning.Matthias said, "The situation is pretty serious now. YodaVision has already announced that employees can work from home tomorrow. So, don't rush. I'll help you handle anything urgent. Let's get in touch again tomorrow.""Okay."After that, Celeste sat on the floor with Jordyn, playing with some puzzle toys, while Trevor sat on the sofa reading.Over an hour later, Trevor walked over.Celeste didn't look up, but Jordyn did. "Dad? What's up?"Instead of answering his d

    Celeste stopped in her tracks, gave a soft hum, and asked from where she stood, "Where are Jo and the others?"Trevor replied, "The rain's been too heavy today. A lot of places outside are flooded. Even though the drainage system here has always been good, if this keeps up, it won't hold. Peter has already sent people to deal with it."Jo's never seen people stacking sandbags, or rain this heavy, so she ran out to join the excitement."Hearing that, Celeste glanced out the window and finally realized that the outside had turned into a vast stretch of water.Truth be told, it was also her first time seeing Baumond hit by such a severe flood.Her brows knitted with worry, and she couldn't help saying, "Where is Jo now? The rain's pouring, yet you just let her stay out—"Before she could finish, Jordyn burst in, drenched head to toe in a little raincoat. "Mom, you're awake!"Seeing she was safe, Celeste let out a breath of relief.But when she noticed that, despite the raincoat, h

    After coming back from Jorburgh, Celeste had two days off.She had a full day of rest.On the morning of the second day, just after finishing breakfast, her phone rang.It was a call from Trevor.Celeste glanced at the screen before picking up. "What is it?""Grandma was discharged from the hospital two days ago. She wants to invite you over to Fleming Manor for a meal."Celeste was aware of Martha's discharge. At that time, though, she had been away on a business trip in Jorburgh and couldn't personally go to pick her up from the hospital."Got it," Celeste replied.Just as she was about to hang up, Trevor added, "I'll go pick you up now.""No need, I'll drive myself—""Jo wants me to go with her to your house to pick you up. She's already got her shoes on." Trevor interrupted her.Celeste paused. "...Alright.""We'll be there soon."Celeste didn't respond, so Trevor ended the call.About half an hour later, Trevor and Jordyn arrived at the Rodriguez residence.The rest

    At that moment, Matthias asked again, "How are you feeling now? Any discomfort? If you're not well, then this morning's meeting—""I'm fine."As she spoke, Celeste suddenly realized that she wasn't wearing the clothes from yesterday, but she was in her own pajamas.And her body felt fresh and clean—she must have already been bathed.She didn't know whether Trevor had asked hotel staff to help her, or if…It wasn't something she could bring up with Matthias anyway. After a few more words, the call ended.Seeing that it was already late, Celeste didn't waste time dwelling on last night.She washed up, touched up her makeup, grabbed her bag, and stepped out of the room.The moment she did, she came face-to-face with Trevor and Wynn.Celeste's steps faltered.Trevor and Wynn stopped as well.The moment Wynn saw Celeste, her expression turned cold instantly."Cel."Just then, Matthias also stepped out of his room. Seeing Wynn and Trevor together, his jaw clenched as he walked d

    After entering the elevator, seeing that Jacob only pressed the floor where he stayed, Trevor suddenly spoke up. "There's no need to come up with me."Jacob froze for a moment, then quickly replied, "Yes, sir."Only then did he press the button for his own floor.…The next morning, wearing a bathrobe and with the clothes he had worn last night draped over his arm, Trevor walked out of a room and shut the door behind him before heading off in the other direction.Wynn had just stepped out of the elevator.Her face lit up with a smile the moment she saw Trevor, and she was about to greet him until her eyes fell on the shirt hanging from his arm.Both the collar and shoulder bore vivid lipstick marks.Her smile instantly vanished. The words on her lips died in her throat.Before she could recover, Trevor's figure had already disappeared around the corner, followed shortly by the sound of a door opening and closing.Still stunned, Wynn's gaze dropped to the room number in front

    A little over ten minutes later, Celeste went to the restroom with a few others.She had just pushed the door open and, seeing someone inside, was about to apologize and leave when a hand suddenly covered her mouth and nose. Before she could react, her consciousness blurred.The person who had subdued Celeste was quickly joined by a woman waiting outside. Together, they made a hasty disguise for Celeste and supported her out of the restroom. After carefully avoiding YodaVision's people, they managed to get outside.Just as they were about to put her into a car with others waiting, their path was blocked.At that moment, Trevor's phone rang.After listening to the caller, he rose and told the two executives beside him, "Something's come up. Let's catch up another time."Jacob, seeing him leave, followed.By the time they reached outside the bar, the people who had tried to take Celeste were already subdued.Jacob was startled when he saw her unconscious, but he quickly grasped
