LOGINJust then, Wynn's phone suddenly vibrated.It was Miles again.Seeing that Trevor still hadn't replied after so long, he tagged him in the group chat once more. "Where are you?"This time, Trevor finally replied. "What is it?"Seeing that Trevor had no intention of answering his first question, Miles assumed he simply didn't think it was worth responding to.Besides, Trevor himself wanted to get divorced as soon as possible. Yet these past few times, every time the mandatory waiting period ended, he kept getting held up by one thing or another and was unable to divorce Celeste smoothly. So, he was probably quite frustrated about it himself.Thinking that way, Miles didn't dwell on Trevor ignoring his first question.He asked instead, "Still not free these next few days? Want to go out and hang around together this weekend?"Seeing Miles's question, Wynn paused. Almost immediately after, Trevor replied in the group. "No. I have things to do this weekend."Miles immediately
After setting a time, Celeste arrived at the courthouse early the next morning.Trevor was quite punctual too—he'd even arrived earlier than her.The procedure went very smoothly.After everything was done, Trevor looked at her and said, "In a couple of days, Jo wants to go out to sea for a trip. Are you free?"Celeste paused for a moment before replying, "Not sure. We'll talk about it later."Trevor didn't press the matter. "Alright."Celeste turned and left without looking back.…The news that they had gone to the courthouse again to handle the divorce procedures quickly reached Miles.That afternoon, he tagged Trevor in their group chat."I heard you finally managed to make time this morning to go to the courthouse to handle the paperwork? Honestly, after so many times, when are you two actually going to get divorced?"Trevor didn't reply in the group chat.But Wynn saw Miles's message immediately.It was only then that she learned Trevor and Celeste had gone to the co
Trevor replied quickly. "Okay, got it."But even so, after another three to four days passed, Celeste still didn't receive any message from Trevor about setting a time to go to the courthouse to handle the divorce.Trevor had already been back in the country for over a week, yet he still hadn't proactively brought up the divorce with Celeste. Naturally, the Lockets and the Shaws knew about this as well.Not only that, but they also knew that during this week, Trevor had hardly met Wynn.If Trevor were extremely busy with work, they could have understood.But as far as they knew, Trevor wasn't particularly busy this week.Earlier, Wynn had told them that after Trevor learned that Celeste was quite capable professionally, his attitude toward her had gradually begun to change.By now, Trevor should have developed some feelings for Celeste to the point that he had started to feel reluctant to divorce her.Even so, the Lockets and the Shaws still believed that Trevor had very deep
Actually, Celeste didn't ask for the money for herself.She asked for it for Jordyn.In the future, when Jordyn grew up a bit more, she would hand over everything Trevor had given her—both money and assets—to Jordyn.With these things, no matter what Jordyn encountered later in life, she would have more confidence and more choices.A few days later, possibly because Trevor had already returned to the country, Celeste suddenly received a call from Trevor's lawyer, saying that the 30-billion agreement had already been drafted. He wanted to send it to her for review in advance so they could quickly discuss any issues.Hearing this, Celeste thought the agreement would contain a lot of clauses.After all, Trevor was paying her 30 billion dollars.With such a huge amount, it would be understandable if he added more conditions.But the agreement his lawyer sent over was very short. Trevor had only one requirement: that she not sue for divorce within the next six months.This condit
After learning that Celeste wanted to sue for divorce, Betty was in favor of it.After finishing her conversation with her grandmother, Celeste turned and went upstairs. Just as she was about to call Jason to discuss the divorce lawsuit, she received a message from Trevor."I didn't make it back in time. That's my fault. Sorry."Celeste looked at it and didn't reply.Right after that, Trevor sent a second message."Can you not sue for divorce? If you can agree to this request, I can give you 30 billion dollars as compensation."Celeste still didn't reply.She actually knew why Trevor didn't want her to sue for divorce.If she filed a lawsuit and the news leaked, Wynn's identity as a mistress would be exposed. If someone deliberately stirred things up, it wouldn't just affect Trevor's career; even his father's political future would be impacted.If it really came to that, for the sake of the Fleming family's future, Martha and Queenie would probably both come to her over this m
Celeste knew nothing about what happened with Wynn.Recently, Celeste had been in a fairly good mood because Betty's condition was getting better, and she had basically recovered.However, more than half of the divorce decision period between her and Trevor had already passed.Yet Trevor still hadn't returned from his business trip.A few days earlier, Jordyn had mentioned that Trevor was still very busy and still couldn't determine when he would be able to return to the country.As the days passed and there were fewer and fewer days left in their decision period, Celeste hesitated for a moment before sending Trevor a message."When will you be back?"After the message was sent, she didn't receive a reply until the next day."Not anytime soon."Celeste frowned and immediately sent another message. "Can you make it back before the decision period ends?"Trevor replied, "Sorry, I'm not sure."Celeste looked at the message, rubbed her temples, and didn't reply.After a while,
