Feeling embarrassed, Celeste's face flushed immediately. She adjusted the collar that Shanice had tugged.

Beck's expression darkened in that instant. After he snapped back to his senses, he turned around and shifted his gaze.

The nanny, who had been standing aside, was mortified as well.

Luckily, they were the only ones there; otherwise, it would have been even more awkward.

The nanny quickly helped Celeste adjust her clothes.

Celeste was reserved, and she had never revealed so much of

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 853

    In Miles's mind, Jordyn was always cheerful. If something upset her, she would surely tell Trevor about it right away. So, what could she possibly have to be unhappy about?Jordyn scrolled through her tablet without looking up. "I'm not unhappy."Normally, whenever they saw her, there was always a smile on Jordyn's face. It was obvious at a glance that she was a cheerful, happy child.If anyone teased her, she would immediately perk up and fire back. But now, even after being teased, she remained quiet and didn't seem bothered to respond.Even Miles could tell that she was genuinely in a bad mood. He was about to tease her a little more and ask what was wrong when Beck cleared his throat."It's your turn. Order something.""I already ordered.""Order two more dishes."Miles looked surprised. "You're super hungry today?"Beck didn't answer.The last time they had gone out to sea together, Beck had already noticed that Jordyn seemed to have something on her mind. Even then, he

    Over the next few days, Celeste was busy dealing with company matters.One day, Matthias suddenly said to her, "A few more key engineers have left InnovaTech recently."Celeste hummed in acknowledgement and replied, "I've heard about it too.""Several investors have pulled out, but a few are still holding on. I guess they're waiting to see whether Trevor will step in."At that, Matthias smiled and added, "Apparently, CodeFlux has also withdrawn its investment."CodeFlux was Jorge's company.Celeste nodded.Matthias couldn't help saying, "From what I saw before, Jorge seemed pretty infatuated with Wynn. I'm actually a little surprised he pulled out so decisively."Celeste wasn't interested in Jorge's affairs, so she didn't respond.Matthias then asked, "Trevor still hasn't returned from his business trip?"Celeste shook her head. "I don't know."She and Jordyn hadn't been in contact for the past few days. She hadn't been deliberately keeping track of Trevor's whereabouts eith

    That evening, Jordyn ate a few skewers of meat, played with her building blocks for a while, and spent some time looking at the stars before heading back to rest at the hotel.The next day, aside from discussing work with Matthias and some of the company employees, Celeste spent most of her time with Jordyn.Matthias and Kieran both made a few more attempts to get closer to Jordyn.Every time, Jordyn would politely greet them and thank them, but somehow, the distance between them never seemed to close.At first, they assumed she was simply shy around strangers. But it didn't take long for them to realise that Jordyn was deliberately keeping them at arm's length.She simply didn't want to "be friends" with them.Although Matthias felt deeply sorry for Celeste over what had happened in the past, he had never completely blamed Jordyn for liking Wynn, as she was just a child. Furthermore, Jordyn was Celeste's daughter. How could he not genuinely care for her?But seeing Jordyn's att

    The weather was nice that evening. There was also an observation deck up on the mountain, offering a beautiful view of the city's dazzling lights below.When Celeste and Jordyn reached the top, some of the YodaVision employees had already set up grills in the open area beside the observation deck and were busy barbecuing meat.When they saw them, everyone quickly greeted them."Ms. Rodriguez, we've got someone here who's really good at grilling. His grilled meat is amazing. Would you like some?"Celeste smiled and accepted it. "Thank you.""It's nothing. There's plenty more."Then they handed a skewer to Jordyn as well. "Are you Jo? Here you go."Jordyn accepted it too. "Thank you.""Aww... Ms. Rodriguez, is Jo always this sweet? She's so pretty, and even her personality and mannerisms are so much like yours. She's so well-behaved and sensible, quiet and polite."Someone else laughed and joined in. "Exactly. Mr. Ortiz was just saying how jealous he was. He said his daughter ca

    Jordyn nodded. "Okay, Mom. I know."With that, Jordyn left with Hannah.After finishing dinner, Celeste chatted with Matthias about some company matters for a while before returning to her room.When she got back, Jordyn was taking a shower.Celeste had only just sat down when the phone Jordyn had left on the bed started ringing.It was Trevor.Celeste didn't answer. Instead, she gestured for Hannah to pick up.Hannah gave a wry smile. "Jo doesn't want to answer Mr. Fleming's calls right now, and she doesn't want me answering them for her either. If she wants to talk to him, she'll call him back after she finishes her shower."Celeste hadn't known about any of this.Trevor had custody of Jordyn, and Celeste didn't feel it was appropriate for her to interfere too much in how the father and daughter got along.Hearing this, and remembering how unhappy Jordyn had seemed that day, she asked, "Did they have a fight?""...Yes."In fact, ever since Philip's banquet, Trevor and Jor

    More than an hour later, Celeste and Jordyn finally arrived at the hotel.After learning that Celeste had arrived, both Matthias and Kieran came downstairs to greet her.Matthias knew that she'd gone to pick up Jordyn, but Kieran didn't. When he saw Jordyn getting out of the car with Celeste, he was stunned for a moment.Celeste gently patted Jordyn's head. "Jo, say hello."Jordyn obediently greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Matthias.""Good girl."Celeste then turned to Kieran."This is one of my colleagues. Say hello to Mr. Gibson."Kieran looked at Jordyn, his feelings complicated.He had actually met Jordyn before, but that had been two or three years ago. She had still been very young then, so she probably didn't remember him anymore.Matthias said to Celeste, "Dinner's about to start. Let's go in.""Okay."Until recently, the people at YodaVision had only heard that Celeste was married and had a child. It was only some time ago that they learned that the man she'd married was
