Chapter 192

Author: Cloudsearcher
Celeste brought her laptop and went with Matthias to have dinner at Zachary's home.

After dinner, Zachary helped her review her thesis.

It was late at night when she got into the car to head home. At that moment, Adeline called.

She had originally booked tickets for the next day to take her two kids on a one-day cruise trip, but something had come up at her family's side, and she had to go back, meaning she wouldn't be able to take care of the kids.

After listening, Celeste said, "Got it. I happen to be free tomorrow, so I'll take them."

Not long after she hung up, her phone rang again. This time, it was Beck calling.

Celeste answered and spoke first, "Sorry, if this is about Shanice, I already have plans tomorrow and won't be able to make time."

However, Beck didn't hang up. Instead, he asked, "Would you mind telling me what plans you have?"

Then he added, "Shanice really hopes to see you tomorrow."

Since it wasn't something that needed to be kept secret, Celeste explained th

Beck seems to be a good option. Not just coz he seems to be loosing his prejudice, but also coz seeing their successful life together would make that ex husband realise what a gem he lost

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 557

    Around dinnertime, when the Lockets and the Shaws saw Wynn getting ready to head out, they finally realized that Trevor had already returned from abroad.When they heard he'd come back that very afternoon, Ruby couldn't help stomping her foot in frustration."What? He came back this afternoon? If only he'd returned half a day earlier! The decision period's already over—"Linda quickly echoed, "Exactly!"In truth, it wasn't just them. Even Lilian and the others felt it was such a pity.Two days ago, when Wynn told them that Trevor probably wouldn't make it back before the end of the decision period to finalize the divorce with Celeste, they still held onto a sliver of hope. They believed that maybe, for Wynn's sake, he'd come back early and surprise her by ending things with Celeste.But as it turned out, Trevor really didn't make it back before the decision period expired.That was why, when they learned he had returned that very afternoon, they felt so regretful.If he had c

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 556

    On the very last day of the decision period, Trevor still didn't make it back to the country.Just like that, the divorce decision period quietly passed.Celeste thought he'd probably return after a few more days, but the next day, while she was discussing work with Matthias, Jordyn suddenly called and said that Trevor was back.Matthias let out a disbelieving laugh. "Seriously? Of all times, he comes right after the decision period ends? He's doing this on purpose, isn't he?"Celeste put down her phone and didn't respond.On purpose? Of course not. It was probably just a coincidence.Matthias knew it too, but he couldn't help feeling irritated.He muttered, "Why not just file for divorce directly then... Though, from filing to the first hearing, it'll take at least a month—"Before they could continue, someone knocked on the door, and the topic was dropped for the moment.…Meanwhile, in the group chat with Trevor, Miles, Beck, and Wynn, Trevor suddenly tagged the three of t

    There were so many profitable projects, and yet they couldn't get a piece of it—all they could do was watch. Luther was just envious, though; he wasn't really complaining.After all, as long as Trevor and Wynn's relationship stayed solid, there'd be plenty of chances to make money later. There was no need to rush.Everyone there understood that.Besides, there was something else they were more concerned about now.From the news reports, it seemed Trevor still had a lot to handle and wouldn't be able to return home anytime soon.Patricia couldn't help feeling a little worried. "Trevor... He won't miss the end of the decision period, will he?"Even Lilian frowned, which was rare.She wasn't exactly panicking, but dragging things out like this wasn't good for them either.Erin also couldn't help asking Wynn, "Wynn, what did Trevor say?"Snapping back to her senses, Wynn answered honestly, "He said he's not sure."The people from both the Lockets and the Shaws grew even more unea

    That afternoon, when Celeste got home, Jordyn had just returned from school.The moment Celeste stepped through the door, she heard her daughter talking on the phone. Seeing her, Jordyn's face lit up. "Mom!" she called out happily.Then, whatever the person on the other end said made Jordyn's eyes brighten even more. She ran over with the phone in hand. "Mom, Dad wants to talk to you."Celeste was stunned for a moment. Then, she took the phone, pressed it to her ear, and said, "Hello.""Happy birthday."Celeste didn't answer immediately. There was a brief silence before she finally replied, "Thank you."By right, this was the moment she should've mentioned the gift he'd sent that morning, maybe said something polite in return. But holding the phone, she said nothing. Not a word.Trevor didn't bring it up either. It was as if that extravagantly expensive gift hadn't come from him at all."I've got a lot going on over here," he said calmly. "I probably won't be back for a while."

    Along with Beck's bouquet came a simple card and a small handmade flower from Shanice. That gift from Shanice had been sent through Beck.In Celeste's view, Beck sending flowers was nothing more than politeness. Even if it was just courtesy, since she had received the gift, it was only proper to thank him personally.So, she called him.Beck had been expecting her call, and he'd been waiting for it for quite a while.So, the moment her number appeared, he answered immediately and spoke first, "Got the gift? Happy birthday.""Yes, I did. Thank you for the flowers, and please also tell Shanice that I really liked her gift."Beck chuckled softly. "I will. Shanice actually prepared and sent it out half a month ago. Knowing you liked it will make her really happy."Hearing that, Celeste's heart warmed. "Please tell her that when she's free to come back to Baumond, I'd like to take her out for a meal.""Alright, I'll tell her.""Then I'll leave you to it," Celeste said. "And... Than

    Hector was stunned. "T-That expensive?"Even Betty and Adeline were taken aback.Betty turned to Celeste. "Cel, come take a look."Celeste had heard everything they said.When she first took the box, she could already tell from the weight and texture that Trevor's gift wouldn't be cheap, but she hadn't expected this.Just as her aunt said, the red diamond Trevor gave her was far more brilliant and pure than the one she had auctioned off before. And that estimated two billion was likely a very conservative figure.From the look on Celeste's face, everyone could tell she didn't expect Trevor to give her something so extravagant either.Hector frowned. "So, what now? Return it?" After all, she and Trevor were about to get divorced. A gift like this—"Keep it."Betty closed the brocade box and said firmly, "Just think of it as something for Jo. When she grows up, pass it to her. If you refuse it now, it'll only end up benefiting someone else."That "someone else", of course, refe
