Celeste wasn't surprised to hear Wynn answer the call. After all, Trevor and Wynn were already so close—practically inseparable.So what if she answered his phone?Celeste remained calm. "I need to speak to Trevor."Wynn, already knowing it was Celeste on the other end, replied coldly, "He's in the shower. If you have something to say, you can tell me."Tell her? Well, this matter did concern Wynn.Ivan saw Wynn's maternal uncle and Oliver Shaw's wife, Ruby, in the neighborhood today. However, Harvey had likely purchased the villa across from them.If Harvey had bought that house, it was probably meant as a gift to Wynn's grandmother and his current mother-in-law, Dorothy Adams.So, if Celeste told Wynn about this, would she stop Dorothy and the others from moving in?No, she wouldn't.Besides, Celeste didn't believe that Wynn had no idea Oliver's family was planning to move into the house right across from the Rodriguez residence. Which meant telling her would not only be poi

"Okay!" Jordyn happily ran upstairs, her footsteps light and quick.Celeste had just finished shutting down her laptop and tidying up when she stepped out of the master bedroom. Before she could react, Jordyn threw herself into her arms, hugging her tightly. "Mom!"Celeste only patted the top of her head without hugging her back.Jordyn didn't notice, too excited as she chattered away. Just then, the sound of approaching footsteps made Celeste look up, and her gaze locked onto Trevor's.His face was expressionless, while hers remained calm.Looking down at Jordyn, Celeste said, "Go have Hannah help you with your bath. Mom needs to talk to Dad."Trevor stopped walking upon hearing this.Jordyn had spent two fun-filled days outside and was in a great mood. Though she was reluctant, she didn't argue and obediently went to her room to have Hannah help her wash up.Celeste turned to Trevor, who was casually leaning against the wall, occupied with his phone. "Can we talk in the room?

Tears welled up in Celeste's eyes, and her mind momentarily went blank. But she quickly snapped back to reality and hurriedly said, "Thank you. Then what—"Before she could finish asking what the conditions were, Trevor moved his cigarette away and reached out to wipe away a tear that had slipped down her cheek. "Get some rest."Celeste froze, watching his retreating figure, momentarily forgetting how to react. When she gathered her thoughts, she was unsure what to do next.When Trevor told her to rest early, did that mean he expected her to stay the night?Though she had moved out, they hadn't officially divorced. Staying over for one night wouldn't be a big deal.As for sleeping in the master bedroom… she'd better not.Calming herself, she picked up her belongings, along with a change of clothes and some toiletries, and went to Jordyn's room instead.That night, she stayed in Jordyn's room.The next morning, Celeste woke up before seven.Shortly after, Jordyn also woke up.

Although Martha spoke sternly, she still shot a glare at Trevor.Trevor remained unfazed and didn't react. He didn't need another reminder; he simply picked up a dish and placed some food on Celeste's plate.Celeste responded, "Thank you."Martha then mentioned that she had brought a variety of health supplements for them. After dinner, she planned to personally oversee the preparation of some nourishing soups for Celeste and Trevor.Celeste couldn't refuse and could only nod in agreement.Martha had spent time in Yorkhaven in her younger years and had mastered the art of making rich, slow-cooked broths.After dinner, she went to the kitchen to personally guide the staff in preparing the tonics. When Celeste tried to help, Martha simply pushed her out of the kitchen.Left with no other choice, Celeste sat down on the couch.Jordyn and Trevor were also there—one focused on her Artisan's Puzzle, the other on his phone, busy with work.The room was silent.At that moment, Matthi
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 88
Celeste was shocked and at a loss for words. She felt a little awkward but was not overly flustered. After all, they were husband and wife, and over the years, they had done what married couples do plenty of times.Though she had always hoped Trevor would fall in love with her, she had never deliberately seduced him.It wasn't that she hadn't thought about it—she simply believed it wouldn't work on him, so she had never acted on the idea.That was why she usually wore loose, collared, two-piece pajama sets at home.The one she had on now was one such set—oversized and long enough that, even without pajama pants, it didn't seem too revealing.She had no intention of seducing him.Still, to avoid any misunderstanding, she explained, "I just forgot to grab my pants."Celeste was confident that her loose-fitting top, with its long hem, wasn't revealing.But she had overlooked something—her figure was naturally well-proportioned, with smooth curves in all the right places. The hig

What was more, it wasn't just any kind of drug.But Trevor understood its effects and had seen through it. It seemed he hadn't drunk the soup at all last night.Celeste hadn't expected Martha to go this far.She frowned, but Martha let out a dissatisfied sigh before she could speak. "Sometimes, it's not a good thing for a grandson to be too smart. Sigh, I was hoping for another grandchild. Cel, if you have time, put in more effort with Trevor, alright?"Celeste was speechless. She didn't know what to say.Even though Trevor had agreed to help her yesterday, she knew there was no future for them.It would have been a disaster if something had happened between them last night. As for having another child, that was impossible.Just as these thoughts crossed her mind, Jordyn came downstairs.When she saw her, Celeste's expression cooled slightly as she was reminded of Jordyn's admiration and affection for Wynn.During breakfast, Trevor once again naturally took the seat beside Cel

At the thought of it, Celeste's throat felt a little tight and sore. Suddenly, it seemed to be a little stifling in the car. Celeste withdrew her gaze and intended to lower the car window for some fresh air, but she paused just as she was about to touch the button. Eventually, she didn't press it. Instead, she turned her head sideways and looked out the window. Time passed, and they arrived at Jordyn's school. Celeste stepped out of the car to take her to the school premises, while Trevor remained seated. Jordyn said, "Dad…""Dad's busy.""Oh…" Celeste knew Trevor acted differently when he took Jordyn to school with Wynn. He would get out of the car with her and take Jordyn to the teacher before he left. Today, Celeste was here with Trevor. She had no idea if he was actually busy or if he simply didn't want to be seen in public with her. At that thought, Celeste decided she wouldn't push for it. She looked at Trevor and said, "You can leave first. I'll hail a cab to the com

With that said, Trevor was here as well. So, Isabelle didn't do or say anything reckless. Wynn walked over, but she didn't talk to Celeste. Instead, she faced Matthias and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, Mr. Yoder. We meet again."Matthias plastered on a smile and said, "Yeah. It is.""I've always wanted to treat you to a meal, Mr. Yoder, but I've been busy. So, I couldn't make time for it.""Don't worry about it, Ms. Locket. I'm well aware that you're extremely busy." Of course, Wynn was busy. Otherwise, she would have reported to work at YodaVision Co. after meeting Matthias for the first time a month ago. Harvey also wanted to make a connection to Matthias. He noticed that Trevor didn't object to Wynn ignoring Celeste and greeting Matthias. So, he figured it was safe to walk over. Lennox noticed and followed suit. After Harvey greeted Matthias, he looked at Celeste and said, "Hi, Cel."Celeste didn't respond to him. Harvey didn't say anything further. Instead,

However, Celeste didn't look up and continued discussing technical matters with the InnovaTech staff.Albert smiled. "Mr. Yoder, do you know Mr. Robinson and Mr. York?"Matthias replied, "Yeah."After all, they were all second- or third-generation elites in Baumond's upper circles, so naturally, they knew each other.It was just that he had taken a different path from them, so they weren't particularly close.After exchanging brief greetings with Matthias, Jorge and Xavier followed Albert to another area to discuss their business.Wynn, however, stayed with Matthias.She had also noticed Celeste, but after just one glance, she quickly withdrew her gaze, uninterested, and refocused on Matthias."Mr. Yoder, did you just arrive?" she asked.Matthias was highly capable in his own right, and on top of that, he was Zachary's student.Even though she could tell that he held some bias against her because of Celeste and had always been somewhat cold toward her, she still wanted to mai
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 138
Maybe because he saw how exhausted they were, Zachary let Matthias and Celeste go home early that night.After a long day, Celeste took a shower as soon as she got home and went to bed early.…There was something that needed their attention at InnovaTech the next day.In the afternoon, Celeste and Matthias found time to make a trip there. As soon as they arrived, they started discussing technical issues.Not long after, Jorge and Xavier walked in, led by InnovaTech staff. Both of them looked surprised to see Celeste.Xavier raised an eyebrow. "She's actually an employee at InnovaTech? What a coincidence."Jorge shrugged. He didn't even really know her, so how would he know if she worked at InnovaTech?Hearing their conversation, one of the InnovaTech staff members said, "Are you talking about Ms. Rodriguez? She's not an employee here. She's a tech specialist from YodaVision, and she's here today to help with some technical issues."Sensing that someone was looking at her, Cel

Wynn was momentarily stunned before she pressed her lips together.This wasn't the answer she'd wanted.Zachary was about to push the door open and leave when Wynn quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Newman, how do you think I should improve?"Zachary paused for a brief moment and replied indifferently, "Do more research. Keep up with the latest developments in the industry."Just as he finished speaking, Trevor returned.Before he could say anything, Zachary stated, "I've done what I needed to do. I'll contact you in a few days.""Alright."With that, Zachary left.Trevor looked at Wynn and noticed her expression wasn't great. "Didn't go well?"Wynn nodded frankly. "He didn't accept me.""What did Mr. Newman say? Tell me about it."Wynn recounted the entire conversation, including Zachary's evaluation and advice."You're definitely capable," Trevor said. "And I think his advice is quite fair."Wynn paused. Lately, she had indeed spent less time diving into professiona

After watching Jordyn and Beck leave, Trevor and Wynn also got into their car and headed to the restaurant.A few minutes after they arrived in their private dining room, Zachary also arrived."Mr. Newman." Seeing Zachary push the door open, Trevor and Wynn both stood up to greet him.Zachary showed no surprise upon seeing Wynn.Wynn politely reintroduced herself, "Hello, Mr. Newman. My name is Wynn Locket. We met before at the technology exhibition—""I know." Zachary's expression remained neutral as he briefly shook her hand.After he had sat down, Wynn took the seat beside him and said, "I greatly admire you. I've always hoped for the opportunity to meet you in person and discuss the AI industry face-to-face.""Mm."At that moment, Trevor's phone buzzed. He stood up and said to them, "I need to take a call. You two go ahead and talk."Wynn nodded.After Trevor had stepped out, Wynn picked up the menu and handed it to Zachary. "Mr. Newman, shall we order first and discuss t

It wasn't until noon, when it was time for lunch, that Matthias and Celeste finally got a chance to take a breather.At that moment, Celeste's phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Lottie, asking if she wanted to go skiing with her in the afternoon.Celeste replied via voice message, "I have things to do today, so I won't be going. You go ahead and have fun.""Alright then."In the evening, while Celeste stepped out of Zachary's study to get some water, Lottie sent her another message.This time, it was a few photos. And the people in the photos were none other than Trevor, Wynn, Jordyn, Beck, and Shanice.Then, Lottie sent another message: "My friends and I were having such a great time skiing, but then we ran into them. Totally ruined the mood!"Celeste only clicked on one photo. Once she confirmed who was in them, she didn't bother looking at the rest.Seeing Lottie's complaint, she calmly replied with a voice message, "Just enjoy yourselves and ignore them."Lottie qu

Perhaps guessing the reason for Celeste's hesitation, Beck said, "I can guarantee you that personal matters will never interfere with business between me and your uncle."Hearing this, Celeste asked, "Are you sure?""I'm sure."Celeste knew Ivan's company was in a difficult situation. So, after a moment of hesitation, she said, "Alright.""Let me know when you're free, and I'll arrange a time to meet.""Alright," Celeste replied.At that moment, Beck looked at her dark hair, slightly tousled by the cold wind, and said, "The night wind is chilly. You should head inside."Celeste paused. Those were the exact same words Trevor had said to her just moments ago.She nodded without saying anything else and got into her car.Beck remained where he was.As her car passed him, Celeste rolled down the window, nodded to him as a farewell, then stepped on the gas and drove away.Only after watching her car disappear into the distance did Beck get into his own car and leave.Betty, Ivan
The Breaking Point of Love Chapter 133
Jordyn wrapped her arms around Celeste's neck, burying her small face against it to shield herself from the cold wind.Celeste's clothes were soft and warm, and Jordyn snuggled into her embrace, rubbing her face against her neck with enjoyment.Trevor was always punctual. By the time Celeste carried Jordyn to the parking lot, his car had pulled in.Seeing them, the car stopped right beside Celeste.Even though her dad had arrived, Jordyn didn't get down from Celeste's arms. Instead, she playfully said to Trevor, who had lowered the car window, "Dad, carry me inside."Trevor didn't say anything. He simply got out of the car and took Jordyn from Celeste's arms.Happily, Jordyn swung her legs in the air while nestled in his hold.As Trevor leaned in to take her, Celeste caught a familiar scent—Wynn's perfume.When he had been sitting beside her earlier, he hadn't smelled like this.This meant that after leaving them, he had gone to the Shaw family.Trevor looked at her and said,

Zachary said, "Sure."Trevor nodded and turned to Celeste. "Are you going home tonight?"Celeste had still been going over the conversation between Trevor and Zachary in her head. When he suddenly spoke to her, she paused for a moment before responding, "No."Trevor nodded again. "Got it." Then he stood up and said, "I'll come by later to pick Jo up."That meant he was leaving.Celeste replied coldly, "Got it."Trevor didn't say anything else to her. Instead, he walked over to Betty and said, "Madam Klein, I have things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."Betty didn't stand up, and her tone was equally cold, "Sure. I won't see you off."Trevor didn't seem bothered by her indifference. He turned to Ivan, gave him a slight nod as a form of greeting, and then left the banquet hall.Outside the hotel, Beck had just stepped out of his car when he saw Trevor walking out. His movements stalled for a brief moment.Trevor quickly got into his car and drove off.Beck watched but re

Neither Celeste nor Trevor spoke again.Celeste's younger cousins had rarely seen Trevor before. Now that they were seeing him in person, they couldn't help but look at him with curiosity.As someone who had held a position of power for years, Trevor exuded authority effortlessly, even without trying. When he noticed their gazes, he glanced at them briefly.Unable to meet his eyes, they instinctively looked away, not daring to stare any longer.Trevor showed no reaction to this, nor did he make any effort to exchange pleasantries. He simply shifted his gaze away, calm and indifferent.Trevor was the man Celeste loved. She had thrown herself into this love headfirst, and after all these years, she still couldn't escape.Given the way Trevor had treated his own niece for so long, it was impossible for Ivan not to harbor resentment toward him.However, what could he do?The Rodriguez family was powerless against Trevor.Now that Trevor was here, as the host, Ivan had no choice bu
