Chapter 94

Penulis: Cloudsearcher
Celeste tucked her phone away and went downstairs. She told Martha that Trevor had dinner plans outside.

That night, Trevor didn't return home.

The next day, Martha was enraged when she learned about it. "I can't believe him. I know he's very busy with work, but how could he not come home at all?"

Celeste merely wordlessly grinned when she heard what Martha said. Trevor might've been busy, but he could've come home if that was what he wanted to do. After all, he needed to sleep.

Celeste recalled hearing Wynn's voice over the phone last night. Trevor must've gone somewhere better. That was most likely why he didn't come home.

Meanwhile, YodaVision Co. had its major projects outlined for the next two years. Celeste had done it in the past two days, but Matthias believed they should compile their ideas. Thus, he sent some documents to Zachary so that the latter could provide him with some insights.

Zachary was very busy most of the time. On top of that, his whereabouts were quit

  • The Breaking Point of Love   Chapter 95

    Celeste also had the same thought. What was more, she believed that this was Trevor's way of making it up to Wynn after he stopped Wynn's uncle from moving into the villa across from Ivan. After all, Trevor loved Wynn. There was no way he would make her feel sorry for herself just because it inconvenienced Celeste. Matthias said, "If Wynn had been concealing her capabilities all this while, then…"He trailed off in silence and didn't finish his sentence. He and Celeste were Zachary's mentees—that much was true. Zachary might've treated them coldly, but he was actually quite close to them—that was true as well. After all, Zachary was tenderhearted despite his icy and distant character. His strict expectations of them didn't change the fact that he cared about them. With that said, Zachary was a man of strong principles as well. If Wynn really showed enough talents and capabilities, he would never refuse to take her in as his apprentice just because of the bad blood she had wi

    Celeste started packing up for the hot spring retreat after breakfast, including clothes and other personal items. She only packed for herself, though. She didn't do it for Trevor. After all, they were a married couple only in name. Trevor wasn't Celeste's husband in the real sense anymore. He was Wynn's lover now, and he probably wouldn't like it if she touched his stuff. Needless to say, Celeste didn't want to touch Trevor's personal belongings either.Meanwhile, Jordyn helped Hannah with the packing. In the past, Celeste probably would've been worried about Jordyn forgetting her stuff. Hannah might've packed it for Jordyn, but she still would've gone through Jordyn's luggage once more.Now, however, Celeste went downstairs with her luggage once she was done packing her own stuff. She wasn't worried about Jordyn at all. After Celeste waited on the ground floor for a while, Jordyn and Trevor also came downstairs. Once they all arrived at the hot spring retreat, Trevor went t

    Celeste felt uneasy when she looked at herself in the mirror, but she didn't hate the red and suggestive bottoms. So, she put it on. Celeste was still wearing the bathrobe. She stopped in her tracks when she noticed Trevor's gaze and remembered the bikini set she was wearing. A moment later, however, Celeste walked over as if nothing happened. She approached the edge of the hot spring and put down the stuff on her hands. Then, she took off her bathrobe. Just like that, she revealed her suggestive clothing to Trevor. Trevor was stunned when he saw it. Celeste believed that he knew Martha had given her this. Trevor might misinterpret her choice to wear it as an invitation to have an intimate moment, but the truth was that she didn't intend that at all. Trevor was free to think whatever he wanted. Celeste had no reason not to put on the bikini set, which she quite liked, just because he might misunderstand her. This thought strengthened Celeste's resolve not to feel uneasy whe

    At that moment, the door to another elevator slid open, and out came Miles. Celeste was surprised to see him. She didn't expect him to be here at the hot spring retreat. However, Martha and Trevor weren't surprised at all. Obviously, they knew about Miles' presence. Miles saw Celeste and raised an eyebrow. Then, he swiftly turned to Martha and asked enthusiastically, "Are you leaving already, Mrs. Fleming Senior? Aren't you going to have lunch before you go?"The Fleming family and the Quinton family shared a close bond, so Martha had known Miles since he was a little boy. She flashed him a loving smile and said, "I won't be joining you guys. Go ahead and have fun."All of them sent Martha to the entrance and saw her left. After her car drove into the distance, Jordyn merrily asked, "What are you doing here, Mr. Quinton?"Miles bent over and pinched Jordyn's fair cheeks. "Your dad asked me to be here. I came here immediately after I greeted your grandma. What do you think? Aren'

    As the staff headed toward the elevator, he bumped into Trevor and the gang in the hallway. Miles asked, "This meal…"The staff immediately responded, "The missus ordered it."Obviously, he was talking about Celeste. Trevor and his gang didn't put the staff in a difficult position. Instead, they let him go back to his work. After the staff said, Miles chuckled and said, "It looks like we won't have to invite Celeste to lunch."Trevor responded nonchalantly, "We should ask her to join us."Wynn was immediately dumbfounded when she heard what he said. She pursed her lips and looked at him. Beck and Miles were taken aback as well. Miles chuckled. "I guess you're right. Mrs. Fleming Senior explicitly told you to look after Celeste. There will be hell to pay if she finds out we excluded Celeste from our lunch."After all, the hot spring retreat belonged to the Fleming family. Martha probably had arranged for her own men to be here, monitoring everything. Anything Trevor and the gan

    Jordyn ran downstairs and told Trevor, "Dad, Mom's already having lunch in the room. So, she's not coming down here."Miles raised an eyebrow when he heard it. It turned out Celeste knew her place. Beck lowered his gaze and fell silent. Meanwhile, Wynn smiled subtly. She knew that Celeste wouldn't dare to join them for lunch. After all, no one really wanted her here. Celeste could try coming down and joining them, but all she would get was mockery and exclusion. Instead of putting herself through this, it was natural for her to hole up in her room and be the weasel that she saw. Trevor heard what Jordyn said and responded, "Alright. Got it."He wasn't that insistent about Celeste joining them as well. "Let's not wait anymore. Dig in, everyone."Wynn heard what he said, and her smile deepened. Then, she gracefully sat next to Trevor. Meanwhile, Celeste continued to work after she had finished her lunch. By now, Matthias had reached home, and she had thought of more new ideas.

    The hot spring retreat was vast, and Celeste had no idea where Trevor and the others were. She didn't run into them when she went downstairs.Since the sky hadn't completely darkened yet, Celeste called on two staff members to help her and headed up the mountain.At this hour, the wind was a bit chilly, but she was dressed warmly and didn't feel cold. She spent some time enjoying the breeze and picking apples, which helped clear her mind.With so many people helping, it didn't take long to fill two or three cartons of apples.After they finished, she didn't head down immediately. The sunset was beautiful today, so she sat down to appreciate it for a while.Just then, she heard footsteps and the voice of a child.She turned her head and met Beck's gaze.He clearly hadn't expected to run into her either and hesitated for a moment.At that moment, the child on the video call excitedly exclaimed, "Ms. Rodriguez!"It turned out that Beck was on a video call with Shanice, showing he

    Tonight's bonfire party featured stew, grilled chicken, and barbecued meat.The chicken stew was already simmering, and the grilled chicken was prepared. A long table beside the bonfire was filled with an array of top-tier, fresh ingredients, all prepped and ready to cook.The bonfire was already burning.Miles and the others had taken their seats around it.When Beck and Wynn returned, Wynn naturally sat down beside Trevor.Miles couldn't resist and had already started eating the marinated grilled chicken.Seeing that everyone had arrived, he was about to officially start eating but suddenly thought of Celeste.He turned to Jordyn and said, "Jo, go upstairs and invite your mom. Tell her there's delicious food here and ask her to come down and eat with us."Even though he figured Celeste would refuse, just like at lunch, it was still necessary to go through the motions.Wynn understood his intention as well. After all, they had done their part. Whether Celeste came down or not

    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

    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

    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
