There was a slight shift in Beck's expression. He glanced at Celeste. Matthias didn't notice that Beck was staring at Celeste. He was getting into the mood. Dramatically, he bent at the waist and offered his hand like a true gentleman. "May I have the honor of a dance with you, the beautiful and charming Ms. Rodriguez?"Celeste knew how to dance as well. She chuckled at Matthias's enthusiasm and said, "I'd be delighted. In fact, it's my pleasure."Then, she placed her hand in his. With her hand in his, Matthias led her onto the dance floor. Upon seeing that, Beck offered his hand politely to the woman before him. As Celeste and Matthias stepped onto the dance floor, their eyes fell on Trevor and Wynn. They were about to dance too, and they just happened to look in Celeste and Matthias' direction. When Celeste was about to look away, she caught a glimpse of Trevor smiling at her. She frowned. Then, she realized it was just a fleeting misperception. Trevor was smi

"Celeste?" Caleb paused for a brief moment and continued, "As in… celestial?""Yup."The name suited her a lot, but Caleb didn't say it aloud. Jorge, Miles, Beck, Wynn, and Trevor all noticed what was happening. Switching partners on the dance floor was nothing unusual. But Celeste and Caleb?Visually speaking, they looked incredible together. Jorge furrowed his brows.And Beck stilled for a second. His partner looked at him and asked, "Mr. Harper?"Beck averted his gaze. "I'm sorry.""It's fine."There was indeed nothing unusual about swapping partners on the dance floor. To him, even swapping partners with Trevor was fine. But Celeste…It was Wynn's first time seeing Caleb tonight. Jorge had stopped by to say hello, but Caleb hadn't come with him. Hence, she had no idea about Caleb's background. But from the way Jorge and Xavier treated Caleb, she knew his status had to be at least equal to Jorge's.Wynn frowned as she watched Celeste dance with Caleb, he

Realizing what had just happened, Celeste's immediate response was to push Trevor away."Relax," Trevor said casually. As if he had expected her reaction, he gripped a little firmer on her waist. "You!"She couldn't pull away, and she wasn't about attracting unwanted attention. People didn't do things without a reason. She figured he must have something to say, which was why he pulled this switch. Hence, she stopped struggling. In a cold voice, she asked, "What do you want to tell me?"Trevor glanced down at her cool expression but didn't seem bothered. Then, he asked in a relaxed tone, "When are you going to pick up Jo's calls?""Some time later."Trevor smiled. "Which is like, around ten days then?"Celeste paused for a brief moment. "Yeah."Even though she and Trevor were getting divorced and she didn't have custody of Jordyn, she still had obligations as Jordyn's mother. Hence, she had decided to carve out one day each month just for Jordyn. In roughly ten days

Celeste was stunned for a moment.Even though Caleb invited her to dance again, she could tell that he didn't mean it romantically. It was just a gesture of apology and friendliness.Seeing his sincerity, Celeste obliged and placed her hand in his. Beck had already got off the dance floor. His expression darkened when he noticed that Celeste and Caleb were back on the dance floor, dancing together. Wynn, too, was a little surprised when she saw how Caleb had invited Celeste for another dance. Trevor saw them as well. He lifted an eyebrow, smirking. As though nothing had happened, he continued his dance with Wynn. Moments later, Trevor received a call. He and Wynn stepped off the dance floor. It just so happened that Miles didn't want to keep dancing either. Hence, Miles and Wynn made their way to Beck, whose gaze had hardly left Celeste. Celeste and Caleb were still dancing. Miles took a sip of his drink, his gaze settling on Celeste. "Caleb seems pretty interes

The pastries Matthias wanted were right over there.Just as Matthias and Celeste were about to head there, someone called them over to talk business. On the other side, after greeting Wynn, Caleb turned to Beck and Miles. "Hello, Mr. Harper, Mr. Quinton."Beck nodded. Just then, Trevor wrapped up his calls and made his way over. Miles recalled how Caleb and Celeste had spent quite a while on the dance floor. He rubbed his nose and let out a quiet cough. After all, regardless of everything, Celeste was still Trevor's wife. Beck's expression darkened a little as well. Trevor, however, appeared completely unfazed. He took the initiative to greet Caleb when he saw him. "Hello, Mr. Jennings."Caleb nodded. "Hello, Mr. Fleming."Trevor tapped his glass against his, took a sip, and said, "It's been a while, huh?"Caleb gripped his glass lightly. "Yeah, it has been."Miles was at a loss for words. Well, that was a pointless concern. The group of people then started cha

Upon hearing what Celeste had just said, Wynn replied, "I see."With a sharp gaze fixed on Celeste, she added, "In that case, Ms. Rodriguez, will you please tell me what issues my proposal has so I can revise it accordingly?"Celeste immediately realized that she was being challenged on purpose, with the intent to make things difficult for her. Hence, she smiled and responded, "Ms. Locket, any issues with the proposal are yours to resolve. Do you think it's appropriate for us to pinpoint the issues for you? Let me remind you that we're not obligated to work with you. By asking that sort of question, are you implying that you want to collaborate with us but you have no clear understanding of our company's needs? If that's the case, I'm even more convinced that your team is incapable of meeting our standards."Wynn's words indeed reflected her doubt toward Celeste and her deliberate attempt to put Celeste in a tough spot. She was sure that Celeste wouldn't be able to point out th

Once she was done discussing Wynn's proposal, Celeste asked, "What about Fleming Group's proposal?"Matthias rubbed his nose lightly. "Well, you know, Trevor is in the same industry as us, so he's pretty tech-savvy." Besides, Fleming Group was financially strong. Their tech experts were highly sought after in the industry. Not to mention that Trevor was an expert himself. Thus, the proposal he sent over wasn't just good—it was on a whole different level. Perhaps that was why he could remain unruffled and only now make his move for a partnership. It didn't really surprise Celeste when she heard that. She said, "Just assess the situation objectively when you make the decision."After all, working with a top-tier team took a lot of worries off the table.Whatever had happened between her and Trevor was insignificant compared to the project. Jorge came to YodaVision in the afternoon.And this time, Matthias didn't go and meet him. Since Jorge didn't manage to see anyo

"That's a relief."Feeling slightly reassured, Beck dropped the subject. After a brief word with Matthias, Celeste left the office.When Celeste arrived at the villa, she entered Jordyn's room to find Trevor working at the desk. Trevor looked up, noticing her. "You're back," he said. Celeste murmured a soft reply. She set aside her bag and went over to Jordyn's bedside. Jordyn was still on an IV. She must have been tired, as she had dozed off with a slight frown. Celeste didn't wake her up. Instead, she turned to Trevor and asked, "Is she okay now?""She was hurting pretty bad when I got home, but it's much better now.""I see."Celeste sank into the couch, book in hand, intending to read while waiting for Jordyn to wake up. Then, Trevor asked, "Have you eaten yet?""No, I haven't."Before Trevor could utter another word, Jordyn woke up. She was very surprised to see Celeste. "Mom? You're back!""Yup."Celeste closed the book she had barely started reading, wal

Chapter 189

Celeste was about to wash up after helping Jordyn with her bath and drying her hair. Since her toiletries weren't in Jordyn's room, she went to the master bedroom. The master bedroom was all dim and silent. Trevor wasn't there. She switched on the light and immediately froze, for a second thinking she might have stepped into the wrong room. Having spent seven years in this room, she was intimately familiar with every part of it. Yet, everything in sight felt so foreign to her. Everything about the room was different. Well, almost—at least the floor remained unchanged. The floor was the only thing left untouched. The chandelier, curtains, bed, nightstand, small round table by the window, couch, coffee table, rug—everything had changed. Even the water dispensers and mugs were new. On top of those, the vanity desk she had always used was nowhere to be seen, along with all her bottles and jars.She could tell that every reminder of her had been deliberately removed. The

Celeste went upstairs at around 7:00 am. Jordyn had already woken up. Seeing her return, Jordyn quickly switched away from the WhatsApp conversation. Celeste pretended not to notice it and said casually, "Go wash up and get changed.""Okay!"Celeste packed up her things and was about to head downstairs when she saw Hannah gathering her pajamas from last night to wash. Thus, she said, "There's no need to wash them, Hannah. You can just throw them away."The other stuff as well, though. Please throw them away for me; I won't be needing them anymore."Her divorce with Trevor should be finalized soon. Going forward, even if she was meeting Jordyn, she wouldn't set foot here again, let alone stay the night. These belongings were no longer needed, nor did she wish to keep them. There had always been issues between Celeste and Trevor. Over the last few months, Celeste's rare visits had already hinted that their relationship was nearing its end. When Trevor had her things
