The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 24
The others exchanged glances.For years, there had been rumors that Trevor had been married for some time, but no one knew who his wife was. Some even said he was never married at all.The truth remained unclear, and they dared not ask too many questions. Now that Trevor had casually mentioned having a daughter, many were surprised. But most didn't dare to probe.…After dinner, Jordyn continued waiting for Celeste to return home.By 9:00 pm, after taking a shower, Jordyn was still anxiously awaiting. She kept listening for any sounds outside. When she heard a car approaching around 10:00 pm, she rushed downstairs excitedly."Mom—"Her cheerful voice halted when she saw Trevor walking in instead."Dad?"Trevor handed his coat to Peter and noticed the disappointment on Jordyn's face. "What's wrong?""I thought Mom was back..."Trevor wasn't bothered by the typical "kids only care about their mom" sentiment. He paused for a moment and said, "She's not back yet?""Yeah…"He s

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

Zeke didn't expect her to agree so decisively. "You…"Celeste stretched out her hand as she said, "Thank you for taking care of me over the years."Zeke hadn't yet recovered from his surprise but still reached out to shake her hand. "It was nothing."Then, Celeste packed her things and left.Zeke was still in disbelief as Celeste walked away."Why are you zoning out?" Jacob patted him on the shoulder."Celeste left the company."Jacob paused for a moment. "Really?"He couldn't believe it.He then said with a snort, "She might be leaving now, but that doesn't mean she won't find a way to come back. I bet not long from now, she'll be back with help from Mrs. Fleming Senior."Zeke didn't say anything. Though it seemed unbelievable, he was starting to think Celeste might actually be serious about leaving after the way she had been acting recently.After leaving Fleming Group, Celeste went straight home. She didn't receive any calls from Jordyn in the next two days as the latter

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.

Celeste's expression stiffened. "Wynn? Do you mean Wynn Locket? The one who returned from Andostan recently?"Matthias nodded, surprised. "Yes. Do you know her?""She's my half-sister."Matthias was dumbfounded. Although he knew a little about Celeste's family situation, he hadn't expected such a coincidence.Celeste's gaze turned cold, and she added, "She's also Trevor's lover."The car suddenly screeched to a halt.Matthias' eyes widened in shock. "You—"Celeste shook her head and kept a cool composure. She said, "I'm fine. I just don't agree with her joining our company."Matthias agreed without hesitation. "I support your decision."Celeste felt touched. "Thank you."After a pause, she said, "But that means you'll be losing a genius."Chuckling, Matthias shook his head and glanced at her. He replied with utmost sincerity, "She may be an algorithm genius, but compared to you, she's nothing."Celeste was stunned. She thought Matthias was exaggerating, but he stated, "I'm

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.

At first, Celeste was indeed shocked, but she had already let it go.As the crowd swarmed around Trevor and his group, Trevor didn't notice Celeste's presence.Celeste appeared gentle and calm, but Matthias knew she was a person of great resolve, willing to take risks and pursue her desires.In her professional life, once she had an idea or interest, she would dedicate all her energy to it and fully immerse herself in the work, even if the outcome had no market value.For her, the only way to find out if something worked was to try it.The same applied to her personal life. She had loved Trevor deeply, enough to gamble her future on him by giving up the chance for further education and diving into family life with determination.Now, though the cost had been high, Matthias had never once seen regret in Celeste's eyes. So when Celeste said she was fine and ready to move on, Matthias believed her.He smiled and asked, "Want something to drink?"Celeste nodded with a smile. "Sure.

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.
