The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 221

Chapter 221

Jordyn absolutely loved Christmas.

Every year, she would decorate the Christmas tree at home with Celeste.

On Christmas Day, they would go out together, strolling through the streets and soaking in the festive atmosphere with everyone around them.

But ever since Jordyn went abroad with Trevor, they had never spent another Christmas together. No, it would be more accurate to say she had stopped celebrating Christmas altogether.

Celeste told herself she was moving on. But in the end, this was the daughter she had given birth to and raised with her own hands for many years.

Now, standing amidst the bustling crowds, watching the lively scene around her, memories of the past surged up, disturbing her peace.

“Ms. Rodriguez?”

Celeste turned around.

It was Caleb.

She gave a polite nod. “Mr. Jennings.”

“Why are you here alone?”

Celeste cressed the emotions in her eyes and smiled. “just came out to buy some plants for my home.”

Caleb had approached her because he had seen her standing alone in the crowd from a distance–her figure and expression tinged with solitude.

There even seemed to be an unshakable sadness about her.

He didn’t know much about Celeste. But whatever was troubling her, it was enough to weigh heavily on her heart. He asked, “Want to grab a drink?”

Celeste shook her head. “I’m just going to buy what I need and head home.” Then, out of politeness, she asked, What about you? Why are you here alone?”

Caleb replied, “I was out having dinner with a friend, but he had to leave early.”

Since she had only come here on a whim, she might not know about the event later. So, he said, “There’s going to be a big fireworks show here soon. Want to stay and watchi

He wasn’t asking her out–just letting her know.

Celeste smiled. “Oh, so that’s why it’s so crowded here.”

She wasn’t very familiar with Caleb. Just as she was about to say something, her words stalled when she suddenly noticed three familiar figures emerging from the crowd.

It was Trevor, Wynn, and Jordyn. They were heading toward the plaza, seemingly there for the fireworks show as

well

Caleb noticed her change in expression and followed her gaze, spotting Trevor and Wynn–along with a little girl. He was momentarily stunned.

He had heard from Jorge that, recently, there was a growing rumor in their circle–Trevor had a child. For years, there had also been speculation that Trevor was married.

But those rumors were never confirmed.

Truth and fiction blurred together, and no one really knew for sure. Most people thought the claim about Trevor having a child was just hearsay.

Caleb had thought the same.

But now, seeing Trevor and Wynn out with a little girl on such a festive occasion, he was genuinely surprised.

Even so, that didn’t necessarily mean the girl was Trevor’s daughter, right?

Besides, Wynn was only about 25 and had supposedly been studying abroad all these years. She couldn’t have been pursuing a master’s and a Ph.D. while also having a child, could she?

That wouldn’t make any sense.

While these thoughts ran through his mind, Trevor and Wynn had already disappeared into the crowd.

Caleb turned back to look at Celeste and saw that she had already averted her gaze.

Caleb recalled that she and Wynn never got along. But just now; when she saw Trevor and Wynn together, her expression had been… strange.

He asked, “Want to take a walk?”

Fireworks, huh?

Celeste had actually been looking forward to them. But now.

Still, avoiding the fireworks just because of Trevor and Wynn would be a pointless loss.
