Semua Bab The Breaking Point of Love: Bab 21 - Bab 30

When Trevor returned home after celebrating Wynn's victory, it was nearly 1:00 am.Peter noticed Trevor carrying a sleepy Jordyn and asked with concern, "Why were you out so late, Mr. Fleming?"Trevor responded with a hum and offered no further explanation.After settling Jordyn into her room, Trevor returned to his own, turned on the light, and noticed Celeste's absence. He asked Peter, "She didn't come home tonight?""Mrs. Fleming? No, she hasn't."Trevor raised a brow in mild surprise.Celeste had rarely been staying at home the past few days. Frequent nights away were unusual for her. Could something serious have happened with the Rodriguez family?The next morning, Jordyn woke up beaming, still feeling the joy of her time spent with Wynn. Hugging her stuffed doll, she happily made her way to the master bedroom."Mom! Mom!" she called out cheerfully.But the room was empty.The smile on Jordyn's face faltered.Just then, Trevor stepped out of the walk-in closet, already

At that moment, Zeke had just arrived in the break room and paused when he overheard Celeste and Naomi's conversation.He and Jacob had always thought that Celeste wouldn't be able to leave the company. They were confident that she would find a way to stay.When Naomi took over Celeste's duties, they expected Celeste to make a move. After all, Naomi was stunning. How could Celeste let her stay so close to Trevor?However, during the past couple of days, Celeste had not only accepted Naomi but also gotten along well with her. Now, she was even willing to teach Naomi how to make the coffee Trevor liked.What on earth was going on?Celeste was oblivious to Zeke's thoughts. She was focused on finishing her work and politely turned down Naomi's offer to go out for dinner that evening.She planned to head home for a quick meal and continue researching AI-related topics.Just as she left the company, her phone rang. It was Jordyn calling."Mom, are you done with work?"Celeste got in

Just then, Trevor's phone rang. Celeste happened to glance over and saw that the incoming call displayed the word "Babe" on the screen.She had convinced herself that she no longer cared, but after loving someone for so many years, it wasn't easy to let go completely.The sight of those two words stung her eyes, and she quickly averted her gaze.Trevor noticed her reaction when he looked up, but without hesitation, he answered the phone right in front of her and spoke in a gentle tone, "Yes?"Jordyn also noticed Trevor's actions.In Jordyn's memory, Trevor only showed this kind of tenderness when speaking to Wynn. For a moment, she forgot that Celeste was there and excitedly asked, "Dad, is that Wynn?"Trevor calmly replied, "Yes."Jordyn wanted to say that she wanted to chat with Wynn too but hesitated, remembering that Celeste didn't like Wynn. She swallowed the words back, her good mood slightly dampened.She furrowed her brow and couldn't help but think, "If only Mom could

After Lottie's fever had completely subsided, Celeste returned home. She hadn't yet prepared a dress for the upcoming banquet, so in the afternoon, she headed out to shop for one.At a high-end boutique, the store manager and several attendants were busy with a particular dress. It wasn't until Celeste approached that they noticed her presence."Sorry, miss, how can we help you?""I'm just looking around.""Of course."Though Celeste had become part of an affluent family like the Flemings, she's attended very few banquets over the years. After all, Trevor and Queenie never took her along to any formal events.As for Martha, she'd stepped out of the limelight long ago and had no interest in the social scene.Celeste wasn't an expert on dresses, but Lottie worked in high-end fashion. Hence, she had developed a basic sense of style.However, the boutique was filled with so many beautiful dresses that it was hard to choose.She wasn't looking to be too picky and just wanted someth

Celeste and Matthias arrived at the banquet hall, where most guests had already gathered. Celeste's outstanding appearance and graceful presence immediately attracted many of their attention.The host of the event, Joshua Simpson, was familiar with Matthias. He smiled and made his way over to greet them. Just as he was about to approach, however, more guests arrived at the entrance of the hall.Seeing the newcomers, Joshua froze, his disbelief apparent.The other guests, too, were stunned by the unexpected arrival.Celeste and Matthias were still facing away from the entrance and were puzzled at the sudden expressions of surprise and delight from the other guests.As they were about to turn around to see what was happening, Joshua shot them a brief apologetic look before moving past them and heading toward the entrance."Good evening, Mr. Fleming, Mr. Harper, and Mr. Quinton."Celeste's heart skipped a beat as a sudden realization formed in her mind. She turned around and her sm
