The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 153
Celeste dozed off for a few minutes in the car. She couldn't rest well. As she opened her eyes and noticed Beck pulling his hand back, she didn't dwell on it and simply asked, "Are we there yet?""Almost."Two minutes later, their car pulled up in front of the hospital. Beck got out of the car with Shanice in his arms. "Do you need someone to send you back?" he asked Celeste.She shook her head. "It's fine. I can drive back."Beck didn't insist. When Celeste almost reached home, her phone rang. It was a text from Trevor. He texted, "Grandma will be visiting your Granny later, and she asked us three to go to the Rodriguez residence together."She had to respond to the text. Hence, she gave Trevor a call. He picked up right away. "Hello?""I'll go and pick Jordyn up now," Celeste said. She didn't think Trevor would want to go back to the Rodriguez residence with her, and that was why she said that. After all, he had been coming up with different kinds of excuses whenever

Trevor didn't look at Celeste. He gently rubbed Jordyn's nose. "I'm busy, Jo. Be a good girl and listen to Mom, okay?""Okay," Jordyn replied nonchalantly. She cast Celeste a look and walked to her. Then, she extended her hand, signaling Celeste to grasp it. This was basically her initiating the reconciliation. Celeste took her hand, exchanged a quick greeting with Peter, and left.By the time they reached the Rodriguez residence, Martha had been there for a while. When Martha noticed Trevor's absence, she frowned. "Where's Trevor? Busy again?""Yeah," Celeste replied. Martha took out her phone angrily, wanting to give Trevor a call. On the other hand, Betty felt that there was no need for Trevor to be here after knowing Celeste and Trevor were about to get a divorce. Hence, Betty stopped Martha. "He's tied up with work, I get it. You don't need to force him to come."Jordyn and Hector went upstairs to play games. And Celeste was chatting with both Betty and Martha. M

Celeste remained silent. She sneezed again after hanging up the call. Adeline was worried Celeste might have a cold. Hence, she cooked chicken soup for Celeste. After drinking it, she felt her head getting heavier, and before long, she was fast asleep.Celeste then realized she had a fever after waking up. Moreover, she was running a high fever, and her head felt all woozy. Jordyn approached her, looking worried. "Are you sick, Mom?"Celeste murmured a response.Martha was worried about her as well. She suggested bringing Celeste back to Fleming Manor to see their family doctor, Bill, who would help her recover quickly. Betty, too, thought that the illness had hit Celeste too suddenly, so she urged Celeste to go back with Martha to see Bill. Soon, they arrived at Fleming Manor. Bill came over and gave Celeste some medication. After taking the medicine, Celeste headed upstairs and quickly dozed off again. When she woke up, she felt a lot less sluggish. She opened her

Celeste made it clear in the divorce agreement that she wouldn't take anything. Since it didn't involve property division or custody of Jordyn, she assumed Trevor would quickly proceed with finalizing the divorce. However, it had been almost three months since she had handed him the agreement and left the country, and he still hadn't responded. With that in mind, Celeste looked up, wanting to ask Trevor about it. Just then, someone knocked on the door. Tucker's voice broke the silence. "I heard you're sick, Celeste. Are you feeling better now?"Trevor responded before Celeste could, "Come in."With all the people coming and going just now, the door was left ajar. Upon hearing Trevor's voice, Tucker entered the room. "Hi, Trev.""Hello, Tucker."Tucker's gaze settled on Celeste. They hadn't spent much time together, and though Celeste knew he was concerned, he wasn't sure what to say. So, she spoke first. "I'm feeling much better now."Tucker rubbed the back of his head.

Celeste paused for a brief moment and took Tucker's test papers over. Tucker had a good academic record and a strong foundation. Celeste skimmed through the questions and gave him a bit of guidance, and he understood right away. "Whoa, you're amazing! Thanks, Celeste!"Once it clicked, Tucker casually crouched at the coffee table and began answering the questions. As soon as he finished, he kept away the test papers and pens. "Okay, I can get back to my phone now!"Celeste smiled, set aside the newspaper she had almost finished, and, feeling a bit more refreshed, decided to head upstairs for a book to kill some time. Then, Tucker leaned in and whispered, "My dream girl was in another car race recently, Celeste, and she was even cooler this time. I got a video. Wanna watch?"The smile on Celeste's face faded a little. "I'll pass, I'm not really into car racing.""Oh?" Tucker was slightly surprised when he heard that. He brought it up because he thought Celeste was interest

Celeste found her book after Jordyn had left. With the book in hand, she sat by the large window on the second floor and started reading. Half an hour later, Martha brought up a bowl of herbal medicine. "Oh, there you are, Cel."Celeste put away her book and took the bowl. "You didn't have to bring it up, Grandma. I would've come down if you'd called me.""It's better for you to rest rather than walk around too much." Martha sat down on the other couch. Frustrated, she complained, "I wanted to ask Trevor to bring this up for you, but he was busy tapping away on the keyboard in the study. It's the weekend. What's keeping him so busy?"Earlier, Trevor had been walking Wynn through some project work. Hence, Celeste assumed he went to the study since it'd be easier to type on a keyboard. Remaining silent, she took the bowl and drank it. The medicine had cooled in the cold air, and Celeste downed it in just a few gulps. Martha wrinkled her brow. "That's so bitter, Cel. Take it sl

Clearly, it was Wynn who answered the call.Jordyn felt a little uncomfortable lying right in front of Celeste. "Mom, how about you take me to school next time?"Celeste replied, "Okay."Celeste and Tucker were going the same way, so they shared a car. Having missed his morning study session, Tucker made up for it by studying in the car. Celeste noticed his hesitations and gently corrected him on a couple of points. Tucker gave her a thumbs-up. "You've got a sharp memory, Celeste!"They arrived at Tucker's high school. Celeste, too, graduated from the same high school.The familiar campus brought back a flood of memories for her. Her thoughts were cut short as Tucker quickly got out of the car. "Bye, Celeste!" "See you."The car rejoined the bustling road.Arriving at YodaVision, Matthias pinched her cheek lightly. "Your face looks pale. Are you sick?""Yeah, I was running a fever yesterday.""And you still came to work today?"Celeste shrugged. "But I'm feeling m

Then, Henry sighed. "Ms. Locket sure is lucky, huh?"Without waiting for a reply from Celeste and Matthias, Henry leaned in and whispered, "Even though Ms. Locket's team worked over the weekend, the project wasn't progressing much. Last night, Mr. Fleming came back to the office around 7:00 pm to help her with the key aspect of the project, and things finally started to progress."And, here's the thing."Henry continued, "Apparently, Mr. Fleming and Ms. Locket spent the night in the office upstairs, and they haven't gotten out of bed yet."As his words fell, he shot Matthias a teasing look, raising an eyebrow.Matthias instantly grasped what Henry was implying. Basically, Henry was saying that last night, after Trevor and Wynn finished work, they were at the office upstairs and…Matthias covered Celeste's ears immediately. "Oh dear, what did I just hear?"Celeste had heard it all. It was a little too late to cover her ears. Besides, it was Wynn who had answered the call when

Melissa likes Celeste? How is that possible?If what Miles said was true, then what she told Melissa yesterday…Thinking about how Melissa had left during their conversation yesterday, Wynn's heart sank.Perhaps noticing her change in expression, Trevor, concerned, asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"Wynn snapped back to reality, forcing a smile. "No, I'm fine."Later that day, she informed her family.Upon hearing that Melissa liked Celeste so much, even agreeing to let her be their daughter-in-law, both the Shaw family and the Locket family were in disbelief."Celeste is married with a child, and her family background is ordinary. But Matthias' family is well-off and successful. How could the Yoder family possibly agree to them being together? Did Mr. Quinton misunderstand?""That's right," Linda hurriedly added, "Or maybe that woman hid her past? The Yoder family doesn't know she was married, which is why they—"Wynn also couldn't understand why the Yoder family

The next morning, Trevor, Jordyn, and Wynn arrived early at the sports hall for Jordyn's competition.After they had been there for a while, Beck and Shanice arrived as well.Jordyn saw them and greeted, "Mr. Harper, Shanice, you're here."Shanice came over and shook Jordyn's hand. "The competition is about to start. Are you nervous, Jo?"Jordyn was very calm and shook her head. "No, I'm fine."Beck had some business to attend to, and he was just dropping Shanice off.Trevor knew Beck was in a hurry and said, "I'll take care of Shanice. You can go ahead with your things."Beck nodded. "Alright, I'll join you all for lunch later.""Okay."Their relationship seemed to be as good as ever. However…Wynn listened to their conversation, her gaze shifting between Trevor and Beck. If Trevor knew that Beck had developed feelings for Celeste, would their relationship still be as good as it was now?Beck noticed her gaze and gave her a slight nod. But he didn't speak to her, just turne

After Sebastian and Melissa left, Trevor asked, "Did you finish talking to Mrs. Yoder?"Wynn smiled slightly and nodded.Looking at Melissa's expression earlier, it seemed that she was becoming increasingly displeased with Celeste.…Melissa had actually known about the issues between InnovaTech and YodaVision long before. Matthias had already informed her in advance.When Melissa was talking to Wynn, she didn't really get a phone call—she had recorded their conversation.She walked a little further away, glanced at Trevor and Wynn, and then sent the recording to Matthias.Matthias and Celeste had not finished work yet. After listening to the recording, Matthias smiled and went to Celeste's office to inform her of the situation.After hearing the news, Celeste said, "Now I can be sure that we'll definitely win the lawsuit.""Exactly."Their insistence on suing for contract termination was not only because they really wanted to break the contract with InnovaTech, but also beca

Wynn had thought she would have to wait a few more days for news.However, that afternoon, Trevor called her and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Yoder will be attending an auction tomorrow. Would you like to go?"Wynn smiled and replied, "Sure."The next evening, not long after arriving at the auction, Trevor took Wynn over to greet Sebastian and Melissa. He introduced Wynn to them.Sebastian and Melissa knew about Trevor's relationship with Celeste and were aware of all the conflicts between Celeste and Wynn. However, when they saw Trevor, they didn't let their feelings about Celeste show.They smiled and shook hands with Trevor, greeting him warmly. When Trevor introduced Wynn, Melissa also smiled and politely shook Wynn's hand, saying, "Hello."The auction was filled with the elites from high society.After some casual conversation, Trevor and Sebastian, along with others, began discussing business matters.At this moment, Wynn saw an opportunity and started chatting with Melissa alone.

Caleb was still thinking about it when Jorge asked him again, "Caleb, besides your father and my old man, do you know anyone else who has Zachary's contact info?"Caleb replied, "No one else."Then, as if something occurred to him, he added, "But didn't you say Ms. Locket had met Zachary before? I imagine she should have his contact. "If talking to Mr. Newman could resolve things, wouldn't she have already reached out to him herself?"Jorge said, "I thought about that too. But since she's directly involved, unless absolutely necessary, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to contact Mr. Newman just to complain about Matthias, right?"He was actually being pretty considerate. Seems like he liked Wynn more than he realized.Jorge said, "Forget it, I'll try asking some other people.""Alright."The fact that Celeste was also one of Zachary's students hadn't been made public meant that it was to remain confidential. Since that was the case, it wasn't his place to share it with Jorge
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 359
Theodore refused to help, so Jorge immediately decided to contact Zachary himself.However, he didn't have Zachary's contact information.He messaged Theodore asking for Zachary's number, and Theodore simply replied with a single word. "Nope."Before he could even react, Theodore sent another message. "I've already spoken to Harold too. Don't waste your time."Seeing that, Jorge was genuinely a little angry.But when he tried calling Theodore again, the call went unanswered.Since Theodore and Harold were both at a dead end, he thought of Caleb.He remembered Caleb had mentioned before that he had some work-related interactions with Zachary. They'd even had a meal together.With that in mind, Jorge reached out to Caleb.Caleb didn't return his call until the evening. After hearing that Jorge was looking for Zachary's contact info, he said, "I don't have Mr. Newman's number.""You don't? Didn't you have dinner with him and my old man before? You guys didn't exchange contacts?"

Before Jorge could finish his sentence, Theodore cut him off. "You're trying to say that he's siding with Celeste again and bullying Ms. Locket, aren't you?"Jorge was surprised that Theodore hit the nail on the head. "Old man, how'd you know? Don't tell me you already know what happened?"Theodore replied, "I don't. I guessed."Back when Celeste and Matthias agreed to work with his foolish son for his sake, it was clear they wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for him in the workplace.His son also wasn't the kind to stir up trouble at work for no reason. So, even if they couldn't become friends, their professional relationship should have stayed smooth.If Jorge didn't clash with Matthias or Celeste personally, then the conflict likely involved someone he cared about—probably Wynn.Earlier that year, when he'd met with Kael, Celeste, and the others for dinner, they'd happened to run into Wynn at the restaurant entrance.At the time, seeing how attentive his son was to

Matthias crossed his legs. "Become what exactly? Blinded by lust? Or unable to tell right from wrong?"Both.Of course, Jorge didn't say that out loud.Matthias saw right through him and smiled. "But why do I feel like the one who's blinded and can't tell right from wrong isn't me, but someone else?"Before Jorge could respond, Matthias added, "Also, the student my mentor values most isn't me. It's someone else entirely. Mr. Robinson, you're giving me far too much credit."Jorge didn't expect that, even after bringing up Zachary, Matthias still showed no sign of remorse.But Matthias wasn't about to indulge him. He said directly, "If you can't bear to watch and want to seek justice on behalf of Ms. Locket, then you're free to terminate our contract."Of course, the condition is that you'll have to compensate YodaVision for the corresponding losses."Jorge thought he had approached Matthias politely and reasonably.But Matthias had been hostile from the beginning, and now, in a
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 356
Last week, Matthias' lawyer went to InnovaTech to negotiate the contract termination, but the talks fell through. That same day, they filed a lawsuit with the court.When Celeste had that confrontation at InnovaTech with Wynn and the others, Matthias was away on a business trip.Maybe because she couldn't meet Matthias, Wynn hadn't given up on the matter yet.On Monday, when Celeste arrived at work, she saw Wynn again. As before, when the two women saw each other, neither acknowledged the other.When Celeste got to the office, she found that Matthias was already there."You're here early."Matthias shrugged. "I came in over half an hour early just in case someone tried to intercept me."Celeste smiled at that.…Jorge happened to be in YodaVision that day to discuss something with Matthias. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he spotted Wynn.He had already heard about what happened between YodaVision and InnovaTech last week. So the moment he saw her, he immediately u
