Ruby immediately smiled and said, "Isn't this Cel? Long time no see. You're getting more and more beautiful."

"Mom…" Hearing Ruby compliment Celeste, Linda was displeased.

She had always known that Celeste was beautiful, but after not seeing her for a few years, she didn't expect her to be even more stunning.

Looking at Celeste's smooth, delicate skin and outstanding temperament, jealousy surged in Linda's heart.

However, she quickly consoled herself—so what if Celeste was beautiful? Her future brother-in-law didn't like her anyway. He only loved her sister, Wynn.

With that thought, she felt a little better.

Harvey looked over and said, "Ruby, what brings you here?"

"We hadn't seen you in a while, Uncle Harvey, so we came to check on you," Linda interjected.

Then, she noticed the open brocade box the store owner had just displayed. So, she deliberately raised her voice and said, "Uncle Harvey, is this the wedding anniversary gift you customized for Aunt Lizzy? It's so beautiful

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 407

    On Thursday night, Celeste and Matthias, who had just returned from a business trip, attended a banquet together.As soon as they arrived, she spotted Wynn and Linda.They had noticed her too.The moment Linda saw her, her expression soured. She snorted and muttered to Wynn, "Why is she everywhere?"Celeste paid them no attention. After she and Matthias chatted briefly with the host of the banquet, she saw Kieran approaching them.Kieran had gotten an invitation after learning she would be attending the event.That evening, Celeste wore a sleek, form-fitting black gown with a simple cut, paired with her long, straight, dark hair.Not only did she look cool and composed, but she also carried an air of mystery. She was stunning and eye-catching.It seemed that every time he saw her at a banquet, she managed to impress him all over again.He had been at the previous two events as well, so Celeste wasn't surprised to see him this time. She simply said, "You're here too?"Kieran q

    The next day, Isabelle's test results came back.Overall, the level of organ failure in her body was slightly less severe than what had been shown in the previous tests conducted at the nursing home.Normally, with this degree of organ failure, as long as there was treatment and proper care, the condition could be stabilized.However, Isabelle's baseline health was extremely poor, and the rate of organ deterioration was relatively fast—so her overall prognosis was still not optimistic.After hearing the doctor's analysis, Celeste and Betty felt a mix of relief and worry.Relieved because there was still a chance for Isabelle; worried because, given her current condition, she might not be able to cooperate fully with the treatment.That afternoon, Zachary called and invited Celeste and Matthias out for dinner.Matthias was away on a business trip that afternoon, so in the evening, Celeste drove alone to pick up Zachary.When they arrived at the restaurant and had just gotten out

    Celeste said, "I have to go to work now. Your granny isn't feeling well these days and needs rest. Once she's feeling better, you can go visit her."Although Betty had never truly blamed Jordyn for being close to Wynn, ever since learning that Isabelle's health had also started deteriorating, it felt like half her spirit had been drained.If she were to see Jordyn now and be reminded of how close she had gotten to Wynn, it would probably only worsen her mood.When Jordyn heard that Betty was sick, she looked genuinely concerned. "Huh? Granny is sick? Is it serious? Mom, why didn't you tell me?"Celeste paused for two seconds before replying, "I didn't want you to worry, that's why I didn't tell you."She then gently pried off Jordyn's hands, which were wrapped around her. "It's getting late. I have other things to take care of. You need to take good care of yourself."Jordyn didn't want her to go, but seeing how busy Celeste seemed, she reluctantly let go. But as soon as she did,

    "He's never shown up?" Kieran asked."Yeah." Another colleague chimed in, "That's why a lot of us think Ms. Rodriguez is probably already divorced. I mean, it's been more than half a year, and she hasn't even mentioned him once.""Exactly."That actually made sense.If Celeste weren't divorced, would Caleb dare to pursue her so publicly?Still, Kieran couldn't calm down. It had never crossed his mind that Celeste had already been married.As he sat there in a daze, Celeste walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"He wanted to ask, "Is it true that you're married?"But this was the workplace, and asking personal questions like that—especially of a superior—wasn't appropriate. It might be alright once in a while, but any more would be crossing a line.Snapping back to reality, he just said, "It's nothing."…That afternoon, Celeste received a phone call.After hanging up, before the end of the workday, she told Matthias, "I might only come in tomorrow afternoon. Can you attend

    Caleb extended his hand with a polite smile. "Caleb Jennings."Kieran shook it firmly.As their eyes locked, it was as if an unspoken message passed between them: "We'll each rely on our own skills to win her over."After the handshake, Caleb turned back to Celeste."My coming here made you uncomfortable, didn't it?"It did.But she responded tactfully, "A little.""I figured as much. I knew you'd feel uncomfortable, but I still came." His tone was calm, even apologetic."Because I felt that if I didn't try, I'd never know if you might change your mind. But now I've tried, and I know the answer. I'll be more mindful from now on."So, he was planning to keep pursuing her?Before Celeste could respond, Caleb turned to Matthias. "Let's save the YodaVision tour for next time. I won't disturb you further."Matthias had a good impression of Caleb. If Celeste were to start a new relationship after her divorce, he genuinely thought Caleb could be a decent choice.But since Celeste

    Kieran had all the makings of a perfect partner, which made Linda nearly jump out of the car in protest."No way! What if Mr. Gibson really falls for that bitch? Then we'll lose a friend and add an enemy!"Ruby just chuckled, unconcerned. She lightly tapped her daughter's head and said, "Silly girl. With Wynn shining like a gem, how could Mr. Gibson really fall for Celeste?"Over the years, she had seen firsthand just how irresistible Wynn was to men.Wynn said nothing.She wasn't about to comment on whether Patricia's strategy would work—but like Ruby, she was confident Kieran wouldn't be swayed by Celeste.She knew exactly how deeply Kieran loved her. She had absolute confidence in that.Lilian, though silent, shared the same view that Kieran wouldn't truly fall for Celeste.With that point firmly settled, she finally said, "Because of the missed opportunity with YodaVision, Wynn has lost so much in recent months. Meanwhile, Celeste used that very opportunity to launch hersel
