Beck had barely ended the call when Shanice came running with a light wand in her hand. "Uncle Beck, can I call Jo on video?"After a quick pause, Beck nodded. "Sure."The call went through, and Jordyn picked up almost instantly. The moment the call connected, Shanice beamed. "Jo, look! I have a light wand!" Worried that Jordyn couldn't see it clearly, Shanice passed the phone to Beck and ran a few steps away to show the whole thing. They were in their garden, and it was dimly lit. Hence, the light wand stood out even more. Jordyn was still taking it in when Shanice ran back, grinning. "I got this as an Ember Festival gift! Isn't it cute?"There were many things from two or three years ago that Jordyn could no longer remember. But seeing Shanice with the light wand triggered a few fleeting memories. "Yeah, it's cute," she said. "I think I used to have one too.""Really? Don't you have a light wand now?"Jordyn shook her head. Watching Shanice run around with the light

After setting off the fireworks, Celeste and Jamie bid farewell to the family elders and headed out.Their destination was the Baumond Broadcast Tower, one of the best places to take in the city's nightscape.The night before the Ember Festival, it would also feature a stunning light show and other festivities. As they arrived at the broadcast tower, a crowd had already gathered. The air buzzed with laughter and excitement. The light show hadn't started yet. Hector and a few of his classmates had made plans to celebrate the Ember Festival at the tower. Not long after they arrived, he found his friends and joined them. When they saw Celeste and Jamie, Hector's classmates politely greeted them. But soon, they couldn't help sneaking glances at Celeste and whispering to Hector, "Your cousin is beautiful—like, really beautiful!" Hector grinned. "Obviously!"The group was swept up in the festive energy. They goofed around, taking photos and recording videos. Celeste and J

The Rodriguez family didn't have a tradition of staying up late for the Ember Festival. By the time Celeste and the others got home, Betty was already asleep. When Celeste went upstairs, the clock struck midnight. Her phone had been vibrating nonstop. Matthias, Beck, and several colleagues from YodaVision had sent her Ember Festival greetings, including Theodore and Harold. She replied to each of them, including Beck, before sending greetings of her own to Zachary and Lottie. Just then, Theodore sent another message, asking if she had time in the next few days. He mentioned that he'd been too busy with work to properly thank her last time, and now that he had a break, he wanted to take her out for a meal. After finishing her chat with Theodore, Celeste set down her phone and went to take a shower. Whether they visited or not, seeing Isabelle was always painful for the Rodriguez family. But on a day like this, how could they truly not go?Every year, on the morning of E

It was already close to noon when they left. Going home to cook didn't feel right. None of them were really in the mood. In fact, they didn't have much appetite for lunch at all. But they still had to eat. Celeste then suggested, "Let's eat out."Betty nodded. "Okay, whatever you decide, Cel."After parking, Celeste and Ivan had barely stepped out of the car when they spotted the Lockets and Shaws. It seemed they had come to the same restaurant. As they arrived, someone recognized Wynn and Harvey, warmly greeting them and inviting them to join their table. The Lockets and Shaws also noticed the Rodriguezs.Patricia let out a scoff, looking at them disdainfully. Lilian barely gave them a glance before looking away. Wynn didn't even bother—she acted as if they weren't there at all. Just then, the restaurant manager hurried out, addressing Wynn with a polite smile. "Ms. Locket, Mr. Fleming's preferred private lounge has been prepared for you. Please, this way."Wy

Celeste had barely started her meal at another restaurant when her phone buzzed twice.It was a message from Lottie. She tapped it open and found two photos attached. The people in the photos? Trevor and Wynn. She pursed her lips. Without examining them further, she exited the chat. The second she did, Lottie's call came through. Celeste hesitated briefly, then got up and stepped outside to answer. "Lottie, hi.""Cel, did you see the photos I sent you just now?"She only glanced at one of the photos; she didn't bother looking at the other one. Still, she said, "Yeah, I saw them."Lottie launched into a rant. "My friend sent the first photo to me last night, saying that they spotted them at a hotel. On Ember Festival, of all holidays! Can you believe it? They actually booked a room together? Shameless."Celeste's expression remained unchanged. She didn't even frown one bit and just hummed a soft reply. "The second one is even worse. My friend screenshotted her post. S

Celeste instinctively reached out, steadying Jordyn to keep her from falling.But the moment Jordyn crashed into her arms, Wynn's perfume drifted into her nose once again.Celeste took the girl's backpack and set it aside on the couch. Just as Jordyn was about to run toward the bed, Celeste gently pulled her back. "Did you shower?""I did."And yet, Wynn's scent still lingered on her. That could only mean one thing—Wynn had either been living with Trevor, or the two of them had just dropped her off together. They just hadn't bothered to come inside. "You're all sweaty. Go change into something clean," Celeste said flatly. Jordyn recalled that after her shower, she had been running around and probably worked up a little sweat. Hence, she nodded obediently and went into the bathroom to change. Celeste, on the other hand, continued to organize her research materials. As soon as Jordyn finished changing, she came out of the bathroom. Then, she took out a bunny-shaped light

The next day, when Celeste went upstairs after breakfast, she noticed Jordyn was on a video call with Trevor. Jordyn looked up and called out to her. Celeste hummed a soft reply, then opened her laptop. On the other end of the phone, Trevor asked, "Do you have any plans for today?"Jordyn was lying on the bed. Cheerfully, she replied, "I want to watch a movie, and Mom will be taking me to see one this afternoon!" Celeste was engrossed in the materials she had organized the day before. Moments later, Jordyn came over holding the phone. "Mom, Dad wants me to give this to you."Celeste paused, took the phone, and glanced at Trevor's face on the screen. She didn't feel like having a video chat, so she placed the phone on the desk, pointing the front camera at the ceiling. "What is it?""Thank you for taking care of Jo these few days," Trevor said. Celeste didn't reply. Her attention was still on her laptop as she typed, adding in the ideas she had missed yesterday. "Anythi

After grabbing a bite and watching a movie, Celeste and Jordyn passed by an arcade. Jordyn's eyes lit up—she hadn't played games with Celeste in ages. Without hesitation, she pulled her inside. Trips to the mall, movies, and arcades were nothing new for Jordyn, but getting to do them with Celeste again made it feel special. She was having the time of her life. That evening, Celeste had dinner plans with Theodore. As they left the arcade, she figured she'd drop Jordyn off at home before heading to the restaurant. But Jordyn wasn't ready to part ways. She tugged on Celeste's hand and pouted. "Can't I come with you?"Celeste hesitated. It was just a casual dinner with Theodore—nothing formal. Hence, bringing Jordyn along wouldn't be a big deal. With that in mind, Celeste called Theodore and asked if he was okay with her bringing a child. Theodore chuckled as he replied, "Cel, just bring them along. I don't mind." Then, after a brief pause, he asked, "Yours?""Yeah."The

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
