Celeste O'connor Parents Novels & Stories

Gently, I reached for the wipes on the table and brushed the tear away. “I’m here for you, Celeste,” I said, my voice calm and low. “And I’m sure your parents will be with you tomorrow, watching from above, proud of the woman you’ve become.” She sniffled, her shoulders trembling as she spoke in half-coherent sentences, memories pouring out. Eventually, the exhaustion overtook her, and her words became soft sighs as sleep claimed her. I stayed a while longer, watching her breathing even out, her face finally at peace.

- [Celeste Johnson] Celeste Johnson still wore her wedding ring and used her late husband’s last name. Losing her husband had been a devastating blow—not just because she had lost her partner, but also because she’d lost their unborn child.

She took out a check from her pocket and slammed it on Luna’s office desk. “You seduced Theo and got together with him just for the Allen family’s money, didn’t you?

She never failed to make me laugh on daily basis. “Rose, don’t fall,” came a stern voice, I crouched as Rose embraced me tightly, and looking over her shoulder I watched my son, Phoenix Ximen Celeste. He was mature at the age of four and very protective of his sister.
