Chapter 488

Author: Cloudsearcher
On Saturday evening, Celeste accompanied Betty to watch an opera.

As they arrived at the ticket checkpoint, someone not far away—already attracting quite a bit of attention—spotted them, broke into a smile, and quickly walked over.

"Celeste."

Hearing her name, Celeste turned her head. She immediately saw Kieran making his way toward her through the crowd.

Celeste smiled lightly. "What a coincidence. You came to see the maestro's performance too?"

But of course, it wasn't a coincidence. Kieran had planned it.

At the company, he always addressed her as "Ms. Rodriguez". This was the first time—aside from the day of her interview—that he had ever called her by her given name.

Seeing that Celeste didn't seem to mind, his smile deepened slightly. When Celeste introduced him to Betty, Kieran gave her a polite nod. "Good evening, madam."

Betty returned the smile with a nod. "Hello."

Nowadays, it was rare for young people to enjoy opera. And more than that, when Kieran spoke to Celeste

    Once Celeste got into the car, Jordyn immediately leaned into her arms.Trevor turned his head slightly from the driver's seat. "Do you have any plans later?"Before Celeste could answer, Jordyn looked up from her lap and said, "Yeah, Mom! If you're free after lunch, can we go have fun somewhere?""I—"Celeste had just opened her mouth when Jordyn cut her off, tugging on her sleeve and whining softly, "Please, Mom, say yes, please?"Celeste paused for a few seconds. "...Alright."Half an hour later, they arrived at the restaurant.As soon as they stepped inside, they unexpectedly ran into Lilian and Erin.Both women froze the moment they saw the three of them together."Trevor," they called out first.Trevor gave a polite nod in response.Celeste glanced at them once, then looked away and kept walking without slowing down.Jordyn didn't recognize either of them. She was used to people greeting her father in public, so she didn't think much of it and simply followed her moth

    Before Celeste could answer, Trevor said, "Where are you now? I'll come pick you up.""No need."Celeste thought they were out somewhere.When she realized they were asking her to go over to their place, she said to Trevor, "Give the phone to Jo."He didn't ask further and handed the phone over."Mom?" Jordyn's tiny voice came through."I'm sorry, Jo," Celeste said softly. "Something came up last minute. I might not be able to go listen to you play the drums today. Next time, when I'm free—"Jordyn's little face instantly drooped. She pouted and stayed quiet.Celeste could tell she wasn't happy.She hesitated, but she really didn't want to go over there, so in the end she didn't give in. "I'm sorry, Jo. I'm—""If you've got something to do, then handle it first." Trevor suddenly cut in, then added, "What about lunch? If you're free, let's go eat together."Celeste knew what he was doing—suggesting lunch so Jordyn wouldn't stay upset.Compared to going over to his place, eat

    "Yeah," Ruby couldn't help but add, "waiting a few more days isn't the issue — it's just that if this drags on too long, they might miss another decision window. If that really happens, who knows when they'll actually get divorced."She basically said what everyone at the table was thinking.Even Lilian thought the same.After all, Trevor and Celeste had already missed the decision window once before.Still, though she was worried, Lilian didn't sound too anxious. She said, "Alright, let's stop asking about this. Just wait quietly for the result."Linda pouted. "Fine."Then she happily went back to eating.The rest of them started chatting about other things. Clearly, none of them was too bothered that the divorce hadn't been settled yet.Wynn watched it all quietly. She didn't say a word.She knew the reason her family wasn't anxious—they never once thought that Trevor didn't want the divorce.But she knew better.The reason he hadn't gone to finalize it these past few days

    Wynn and her group left the campsite at noon that day. Celeste and Matthias left a little later in the afternoon.After the camping trip, on Monday, Celeste officially returned to work.Since Trevor had gone abroad for a business trip, Jordyn came over to the Rodriguez residence the day after Celeste's trip ended.After a busy week, on the following Tuesday afternoon, Celeste received a call from Jordyn. She said Trevor was back, and she'd be going home that night instead of staying with Celeste.Celeste said, "Okay, got it."After hanging up, she sat for a moment. The mandatory waiting period for her and Trevor's divorce had already ended last week.Now that he was back from his business trip, it was about time to get the divorce.She glanced at her phone, but there was no message from Trevor.Thinking he was probably busy, she put the phone down and went back to work.Later, she checked her phone two or three more times, but even after she finished working—past nine at nigh

    Meanwhile, Miles and the others still hadn't gone to sleep.He hadn't been paying close attention to what was happening on Celeste's side, but he'd seen bits and pieces.Noticing that Celeste and Matthias's group had already turned in for the night, he suddenly thought of something and sent a message in their group chat."Still awake?"There was no reply from Trevor.Miles didn't think much of it and quickly sent another message. "What's Jo been up to these past few days?"He wasn't the only one awake—Beck and Wynn were in the group too. The moment Miles's message appeared, they both saw it.Beck looked at his screen and asked, "Why the sudden interest in Jo?"Miles lowered his voice a little. "You noticed Celeste tonight too, didn't you? She and Matthias seem really close now—singing together, catching fireflies together. She looked so happy. "Before, whenever there was something like this, she'd definitely bring Jo along. But now... It's like Matthias's the only one in her

    Most of the people camping here tonight had come for the meteor shower.Unfortunately, even after waiting until past 1:00 am, Celeste and her friends didn't see a single shooting star. Eventually, they decided to head back to their tents to rest.Matthias, Caleb, and Kieran watched as Celeste disappeared into her tent.Once she was gone, Matthias glanced at the two men beside him, cleared his throat, and said, "She's not officially divorced yet. Even if you're planning to pursue her, mind your boundaries. Don't make things harder for her.""I know," Kieran replied first. But then he frowned slightly. "Still… If I remember right, her mandatory waiting period should've ended a while ago. Why isn't the divorce finalized yet? Did something go wrong?"Caleb already knew about Celeste's divorce delay—Matthias had explained the basics to him earlier—so he stayed quiet.Hearing Kieran's question, Matthias could only purse his lips and repeat, "That guy had something come up at work and m
