After lunch, as soon as Celeste got home, Matthias called.
After hearing why Zachary had asked to see her, he said, “Theodore and Harold? Yeah, I know them.”
Then he added, “By the way, that Jorge is actually Theodore’s son. Tsk, with a father that impressive, I really don’t get how the son ended up being blind at such a young age.”
Celeste didn’t expect Jorge to be Theodore’s son. But it didn’t concern her.
On Tuesday, InnovaTech conducted the initial test of its self–driving car.
Celeste and Matthias went over to InnovaTech early in the morning. By the time they got there, Jorge, Xavier, and the others had already arrived.
When they saw Celeste and Matthias, they glanced over briefly before looking away.
Matthias didn’t care to acknowledge them either and pulled Celeste along to focus on the test preparations.
Seeing that everything was set up, but the test hadn’t started yet, Matthias asked, “Why hasn’t it begun?” Henry replied, “Mr. Fleming is coming to observe the test personally. We’ll start once he arrives.” “Oh.”
Something occurred to him, and he asked, “By the way, where’s Ms. Locket today?”
Didn’t Wynn say she was coming to InnovaTech to refine her skills? Why had she disappeared after just a few days? Henry chuckled. “Oh, Ms. Locket said she wanted to improve herself, right? Mr. Fleming said the fastest and best way to do that is to lead a team and work on a project.
“So, last week, Mr. Fleming had one of the company’s shelved projects reorganized. In the past few days, Ms. Locket has gathered a team and is currently in a meeting upstairs.”
Matthias was dumbfounded. He turned to glance at Celeste, only to see her jotting down notes on previous test results, showing no reaction whatsoever to Henry’s mention of Trevor forming a team for Wynn.
So, he sighed and ruffled her hair.
Celeste swatted his hand away. “Don’t mess with me.” Her tone sounded fine–so she probably didn’t care anymore. That put him at ease.
Just then, Trevor arrived. With him were Beck and Miles.
Beck and Miles were clearly surprised to see Celeste there. They both looked at her in shock.
Celeste, however, remained expressionless, sparing them only a glance before looking away.
Trevor was polite as he greeted them. “Thank you all for your hard work.”
“Mr Fleming, should we begin now?” Henry asked.
“Wait a moment, we’re still waiting for someone.” Trevor checked his watch. “I’ll head upstairs to take a look. Please wait a bit.”
With that, he left.

+25 BONUS
Celeste didn’t overthink things. Instead, she knew the person Trevor was waiting for was Wynn. Which meant that they couldn’t begin the test until Wynn finished her meeting and came downstairs.
Matthias obviously realized this too–he clenched his jaw, barely holding back a curse.
Soon enough, Trevor and Wynn came downstairs. And tagging along with them was Linda.
Linda wasn’t surprised to see Celeste. Wynn had already told her in advance.
Seeing Celeste–Trevor’s wife–reduced to standing around like a subordinate, waiting for Wynn to come down before she could continue working, Linda’s gaze carried a hint of mockery and satisfaction.
Celeste didn’t bother questioning why Linda was at InnovaTech in professional attire. She simply looked away indifferently.
Wynn, meanwhile, politely apologized, “Sorry to keep everyone waiting.”
Her apology was sincere. However, when she spoke, her eyes only met those of Jorge, his group, and Matthias- never once looking at Celeste.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor)
I know everyone will not agree with me and I also know that Trevor is a trash and all but I want Trevor and Celeste to get back together. They should be the end game and for that to happen Trevor should start working hard for that second chance....
So we're going to go on for another 15 chapter's about jordan's temper tantrum with neither of the parents asking her what's wrong..stop milking it. The only reason i'm still reading is because i cant leave a book unfinished. What I'm pissed about is the book started with promise and turned into a circus....
The story should just come to an end and the writer should give their reader the closure they deserve. There's no point in keeping the story going. It's been the same since the start. Not has changed. The initial story plot was, that Celeste and Trevor are getting devorce and still after 800 + chapter, they are still heading for a devorce....
Don’t Shaws and Lockets reflect ever on themselves? Every difficult situation, they look forward to Wynn to ask for Trevor to help. Initially the focus of the novel was on how Wynn is so accomplished blah blah and now - she is just a useless person, incapable of anything. Irritating storyline...
I'm starting to get bored and I can't predict exactly where the story is headed....
Beck being the only actual adult to ask a child what’s wrong...
Can we get to the point its stagnant and I am unimpressed,I don't care about the company being in trouble nor the inner thoughts of others. Come on now....
Its a good thing both jordan parents are loaded. They going to spend a lot for Jordan therapy. 😂...
Wynn has no shame. And keeping the staff well beyond their work hours is an a-hole move....
I am again fed up with the storyline..it is just exhausting to keep reading only one side of story - where people are living in their own righteous bubble and assumptions....
