Chapter 271

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

Chapter 273

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

Having worked non-stop for over a day and night, Celeste noted down everything that needed to be documented and sent it to Matthias. Finally, she made her way downstairs for breakfast. After going through the materials she had sent, Matthias was so excited his hands trembled. "This is exactly it, Cel! It's perfect!"Rubbing her aching temples, Celeste replied, "I'm going to sleep for a bit. Let's talk later.""Sure thing."Celeste slept until late afternoon. When she woke up, she found Jordyn playing with a puzzle in her room. As soon as Jordyn saw Celeste, the former stood up. "Mom, you're awake!"Celeste nodded in reply. "Are you thirsty, Mom? Should I get you a glass of water?"Celeste paused for a second. "Yes, please."After pouring Celeste a glass of water, Jordyn went back to her own game. Celeste watched as she played the puzzle, and she realized how much she had neglected her in the past few days due to her work. But today was the last day of the holidays.

Chapter 280

Just after Jordyn called Celeste, the car Trevor sent to pick Jordyn up showed up. In the end, Jordyn didn't manage to see Celeste before she left. As she reached the private lounge, Jordyn ran straight into Trevor's arms. "Dad, Wynn, hi!"Smiling, Trevor softly ruffled her hair. Wynn helped Jordyn set her backpack aside. Beck, Miles, and Linda were there in the private lounge as well. Seeing how much Jordyn missed Trevor and Wynn, Miles chuckled and said, "See? I told you, Trevor. You should've brought Jo along on the trip. Look how upset she is. If you'd stayed away any longer, Jo would probably have been in tears."Miles's comment made it seem like staying with Celeste had been unfair to Jordyn. Before Trevor and the others could say anything, Beck smoothly steered the conversation in another direction. "Did you do anything fun while you were there, Jo?"Jordyn settled down in her seat. "I did! I went to watch a movie with Mom, and we played VR games together. We also d
