Semua Bab The Breaking Point of Love: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Martha sighed, feeling helpless. She thought Celeste lacked assertiveness and always let Trevor have his way. This caused her to miss out on countless opportunities to improve their relationship. That was why, after all these years, there had been no progress between them.However, since Celeste had spoken, Martha didn't press further.Once dinner officially began, the family chatted as they ate. The atmosphere was lively. Celeste, however, spoke very little and quietly focused on her meal.From the moment Trevor entered Fleming Manor until now, over ten minutes had passed. Still, he and Celeste hadn't exchanged a single word. There had been no interaction whatsoever.This was typical of their relationship. Everyone else was used to it and didn't find it unusual.When Jordyn wanted to eat something, she usually relied on Celeste. However, by now, she was accustomed to asking Trevor to get what she wanted for her instead.But when she wanted to eat shrimp, she instinctively looked

The thought of Wynn's racing competition tonight and seeing her looking as cool as ever lifted Jordyn's spirits. After putting on the outfit, she grabbed her phone for another look.Almost immediately, she frowned.Normally, Wynn replied to her texts quickly. But this time, she hadn't responded at all, not even after Jordyn had finished getting ready.Could Wynn be upset?Panic bubbled up in Jordyn as she quickly typed out another message. "Wynn, are you mad at me? You know I didn't want Mom to take me to school but you! Please don't be mad at me, okay?"Even after a while, there was no reply.Celeste came back to check on her. "Jo, are you done? It's time to go down for breakfast."Frustrated, Jordyn snapped, "I know! Mom, do you have to always nag? You're so annoying!"With that, she grabbed her bag and stormed downstairs.Celeste quietly followed. She did notice, however, that Jordyn's outfit looked unfamiliar.Celeste had always been the one to prepare Jordyn's clothes. W

Jordyn wasn't embarrassed or timid about having pushed or insulted Sylvia publicly earlier, and she didn't care what other kids thought of her.Yet as Celeste prepared to leave, she found herself reluctant to let go. "Mom…""Yes?" Celeste hugged her back, her voice warm. "What is it?""I want to—"Jordyn suddenly remembered how long it had been since she last had one of Celeste's home-cooked meals. The thought made her feel a pang of longing.But before the words left her mouth, she recalled she had plans to watch Wynn's competition that evening. Her eyes flickered with hesitation, and she let go of Celeste."It's nothing."Celeste's cooking could wait as she could enjoy it anytime. Watching Wynn's competition, on the other hand, was a rare opportunity.Without much deliberation, Jordyn made her choice."Alright, then. Hurry inside and don't keep your teacher waiting.""Okay."Jordyn finally released her hold, but before stepping into the classroom, she turned back and added

Tucker raised his hand as if taking an oath."Today is CC's first race since returning to the country. She's the top female racer in the continent and my idol. I can't miss it! I swear I'll head back right after the race. So don't worry about me and go home.""But—" Celeste began, only to be interrupted by a chorus of excited voices ahead, shouting "CC.""My idol is coming out?" Tucker exclaimed, completely forgetting about Celeste. He joined the crowd in cheering and raised his binoculars to focus on the starting line.Celeste was taken aback by Tucker's fanatical excitement. "Since when were you into racing?"Though they weren't exactly close, she knew he hadn't shown any prior interest in racing."I wasn't into it before, but that's because I hadn't met CC! Do you have any idea how gorgeous and cool she is? You'll get it when you see her, Celeste. I'm telling you, you're going to fall for her too! She's perfect. Everyone loves her!"At that moment, CC made her entrance.Tuck

So, when Wynn celebrated her birthday, Trevor had Beck and the others help her celebrate. This time, when Wynn had a competition, Beck and the others also came to watch…It was said that Wynn's relationship with Trevor's circle of friends had become very close. They were so close that even when Trevor wasn't around, they would always invite Wynn to any gatherings.Beck and the others had completely accepted her as one of their own. Perhaps because of this, in the past couple of years, when they saw Celeste, they had grown more and more indifferent.In the past, Celeste had wanted to build a good relationship with them. However, they had looked down on her and never gave her a chance.She had her pride, so she didn't force the issue once they had made their stance clear. But whenever they met, and when necessary, she would still greet them politely.Nonetheless, most of the time, she was either ignored or even looked down upon. This time, Celeste didn't intend to speak up. She bypa
